Marketing That Won’t Break Your Budget

 

When you are planning your marketing, you need to make sure that it is effective marketing.  You also need to make sure it is cost effective.  Here are some ideas to get you thinking:

1.  Web Site   If set up right, your web site can get you a lot of prospects at a very low price per prospect.

2.  Answering Machine   Put a business message on your answering machine (and cell phone and pager messages) and let your phones work for you when you can’t answer them.

3.  Wear Your Ad   We all know we should wear our nametags, but how about having your domain name on a tee-shirt, polo shirt, sweatshirt or hat.  That would be a lot more effective than just wearing something with your company logo.

 

4.  Flyers   Besides flyers on your listing in brochure boxes, you could put flyers about your services on area public bulletin boards.

5.  Business Cards   Give out as many business cards as possible!  And don’t forget you can print something on the back side of the card.  And be sure to ask for referrals.

6.  Your E-Mail Signature   Be sure to make your e-mail signature a mini-ad and include it in all your correspondence.

7.  Word of Mouth   Make sure you do the best possible job so you your past clients will tell people about you and how great you are.  Remember, if you don’t treat them right, they will still tell people about you……but it will not be about how great you are.  

8.  Car Magnet or Bumper Stickers   These don’t have to be traditional.  How about one with your domain name. You can also get lettering that looks like attached chrome trim but is actually a magnet.  Vinyl lettering can also be quite affordable. 

10.  Cooperative Advertising   Who can you share advertising with to reduce your costs?
