Jump-Starting Your Business
Ten Tips to Jump-Start Business in a Slow Economy
- Get a Plan – Develop a marketing plan with measurable results. (Ask people how they found you and track the results to determine what works and what doesn't. Track sales by marketing source.)
- Get a Message – Now is not the time for image ads. Make an offer so valuable that people are compelled to buy.
- Get on the Phone – Call existing clients, associates and friends to try to provide more products and services and seek referrals.
- Get Out – Network at groups of likely prospects and gatekeepers.
- Get Calling – So what if you hate cold calling. Do it anyway.
- Get Busy – Many companies allow customer service to slip in bad times. Differentiate yourself by improving personal attention to detail. Excellent customer service is always a winning strategy.
- Get Supportive – If you are asking your employees to contact more prospects, support them with training, better tools, etc.
- Get a Memory – Recall your prior successful marketing campaign(s) and duplicate it / them.
- Get Positive – Everyone is attracted to an upbeat person.
- Get a Brand – Find ways to differentiate yourself in your customers’ minds while there’s less noise in the market.
