Will You Add? - Produce More Sales from your Email Promotions - Part 2
If the promotional items you give out end up in the attic or shoved in the back of a desk drawer, they are probably not doing what they are supposed to be doing. However, if items you passed out to clients and customers are being seen again and again, chances are, word-of-mouth advertising is stimulating your business.With media (radio, televisions and newspaper), messages can come and go. But, the exposure promotional items can give equals longevity. While there is no real scientif

If you are looking to improve your marketing results, then you need to follow these quick & easy guidelines.1. Know your consumer. You just cannot market to a market that you do not know. You have to get to know your market as if it were a person. What motivates that “person” to buy your product? How old is the average person buying from you? What gender are they? Where do they live? What kinds of jobs do they have and what is their income? The more you know about your market, the more
If you answered not many, then you need to re-evaluate. The answer to online success is the same as traditional success--promotion, promotion, promotion.

3. Send Follow up Messages to your Customers, Subscribers and Customers
Do you keep email lists by category such as subscribers, potential clients, customers, or teleclass participants?
Talking with many small business people, I discovered many only keep one list, primarily subscribers. While giving my subscribers information once a month, I make it a point to connect with many other groups. Each month or so, I send them some free information, sometimes with a sales message, sometimes not.
How often do you follow up?
The people who hear from you over time develop trust in you. Once they trust you, they are more likely to buy from you than new contacts.
Keep a file of your loyal customers, your potential clients, your subscribers, your teleclass participants, and ePublishers.
To each of these, send a different, targeted follow up email. Send a "thank you" message offering a freebie. To my loyal customers I offered a free question answered by email.

What does your business image say? Every business has its own professional image in the marketplace. When you stop to think about your image, what would you like it to be? Does your customer perceive it the same way as you do?Business image is an opinion or concept. The opinion or concept can be from a customer, supplier, manufacturer, advertiser, creditor, banker or anyone your home business deals with. It is determined by appearance and verbal or nonverbal communication. It can be ho

Consultants can do everything from advising you on your choice of system to providing a full installation. Their main advantage is that they make sure you have far less work to do. You simply specify what you want, and, to the extent that you choose, the consultant helps you acquire it.Typical e-business consulting skills include analyzing your requirements and turning a proper specification into a workable technical design in addition to installing all the required hardware, software

You may have heard the term Marketing Mix used in connection with marketing planning.Marketing Mix means the combination of promotions, products, places (distribution channels), and prices you chose for your business. Including both short term and long term strategies in the marketing mix can make for a more profitable business.Long term strategies build brand/company awareness and give sales revenue a permanent, gradual boost.

Recycle those articles you post online. Give them away as free reports to your potential clients. No cost to you and they take very little time. When a publisher asks me for a longer article, it's easy because I have several versions of each article I write.
Put your online promotion groups in a buying mode. Make an irresistible offer that is real. Give them one or two free bonus reports they want. Caution: It's a turn off when the free bonus reports are worth more than the major package being sold. I just noticed one--the book was $39.95--the free bonuses were supposedly worth $500. That certainly doesn't speak truth.
For an eBook of 30-75 pages packed with how-to's and resources, offer two free bonus reports taken from your article files or book excerpts. These can be 3-7 pages.
4. Display your product or service's benefits clearly.
What do you do when you see in the subject line "Book announcement" or "Book Signing" or "Teleclass Marathon?" What motivates you to want to open that email? Even targeted ezine subscribers are likely to only open 50% of your emails.
Why not give your email lists a reason to open more? Give your potential buyer a picture of how their life would look after using your expertise. Write ad copy that appeals to their emotions, so they feel they must buy now.
5. Place your signature file at the bottom of every email you send.
