Suggesting strategies wouldn`t necessarily be helpful to you if the strategies suggested don`t fit into your business model or marketing plan.
If you want help in getting your business started, please let me know.
What happened is stores saw her release and that got her meetings with store owners who ended up purchasing her doggie jewelery collection.
whats great about PRWEb is you choose how much exposure you want via how much you donate for your release..donations start at $10 so its very cost effective.
Listen to this weeks show on Monday where I give an elevator pitch on my company Groove Rock Gear.
p.s. I am a finalist in the Why I need a vacation contest. Please vote for me "rocknroll333"
Cheers!
I remember the guidance I received when I graduated from a University in SE Michigan in the 1960s regarding how to find a J-O-B. The guidance was "shotgun" your resume to the world. Worst guidance I ever received. Having worked successfully in 54 countries throughout my career, I have found that "targeted" marketing is by far superior. When I am asked the difference between marketing and sales, I simply say "Marketing parachutes into a country, culture or economy, creates the need, develops the requirement and sales comes in and takes orders."
Just my thoughts on identifying potential new Clients.
Start by doing research on your competiton and that will carry you forward. If you decide to seek professional assistance, my company provide`s free 1-hour marketing consultations.
thanks for this post
My name is Zeb, my brother and I produce Automotive Enthusiast Features, Our marketing plan is simple...do great features on automobiles and then attract automotive aftermarket performance parts companies and distributors to advertise during the features, these are the clients that I want, mainly because I`ve used a lot of these companies for my own car building projects and I would love to promote them, and they get concentrated brand awearness.
By the way the automotive Aftermarket is a 38 billion dollar a year business, It stands to reason that I should be able to tap into some of that cash flow, fact is I want to make a living advertising great parts companies and giving them a solid vehicle to promoting their products... (GoRides.com is different in that we are NOT drama TV or reality show stuff like the networks keep doing. Frankly, die hard car guys don`t want drama TV, I know this from being one of them an hanging with them from Boston to California) GoRides.com is Automotive Features for Automotive Enthusiast produced by Automotive Enthusiasts.
so, where am I going wrong? Am I just to small for them to care?
I`m not criticizing you, watch your spelling, I have a dyslexia so I am keen on good spelling, I personally have to check and check and recheck EVERY THING I write. It`s a challenge to be perfect...But someone once said to me...
If I look at a business plan with spelling errors, what else have they over looked?
1.Trade fairs. Expensive but the only way to get 100 new customers in 3 or 4 days. Must have a very good offer and presentation or you will not get a good return on investment.
2. Sales agents. I pay 15% of all sales to agents. This is good when you are little (no sales = no commisions to pay) but the agent is working for themselve, not you and it is almost impossible to retain control. Most agents are unprofessional.
3. Website. This is the most cost effective if you can get your site promoted properly.
4. Go and visit yourself. This is not only cost effective but also gives you a better idea of trends and what the customers want.
5. Advertise in trade guides. I`ve only had limited success with these.
6. Open your studio, or rent a stall to the public, Every sale have an exercise book and ask if they can be added to your Emailing list. Then every month send out a "thank you for being a customer" Email. You will get a lot of repeat business with this.
I would recommend doing all of the above and measuring the return both in terms of money spent and effort.
One thing I would recomend NOT to do is advertise in newspapers. I have consistently found them to be a complete waste of money
