Marketing Tactics To Employ To Ensure You Make Customer Contact
By Stephen Mwanza

No single marketing effort works all the time for every business, so rotate several marketing tactics and vary your approach. Marketing can be fun so take advantage of opportunities available for communicating your value to customers.

Here are some good marketing tips you can implement:

1. Use buddy marketing to promote your business: - if you send out brochures you could include a leaflet or business card. This gives you the chance to reach a whole new pool of potential customers.

2. Handwritten notes on all of your direct mailing list and day-to-day business mail have the impact of a miniature billboard. People read it first. However, the message should be short and concise so that it can be read in the shortest time possible, probably read in seconds.

3. If your customer purchased an item from your shop offer him a note thanking them and informing them that upon their return with the note they may take advantage of a private offer such as 20% discount on their next purchase.

4. Hosting an event is a great way to gain face time with key customers and prospects as well as get your company name circulating. If it is a seminar limit the attendance and charge a fee. A fee gives the impression of value.

5. Try announcing a special offer when you answer your phone and increase your call urgency by including a near expiration date.

Do not be arbitrary about your selection of a variety of marketing strategies. Plan carefully and get feedback from customers and adapt your marketing efforts accordingly.
