You can have a great Product or Service however if you keep it a secret, there won't be any Sales. Of course the missing part of the puzzle is always Marketing. Many people in Business feel that Marketing is an expense that can't afford. Nothing could be further from the truth and in this series of Articles I'll cover many ways to market your Product and/or Service for little or no money.

[43] Surveys:

Surveys give you a great idea whatyour Prospects and Clients and thinking. What are their likes and dislikes? What do they want in the way of Pricing, Packaging, Specials, Terms and Guarantees? How do they compare you to the Competition?What do they needthis year that they didn't last year? It also truly shows that you care about their opinions, feelings and feedback.

[44] Raffles:

Most peoplelove the opportunity to get something of value at nocost so you might consider this once a year or so. Your Customerscould get one Entry for each Orderor one Entry for each particular dollar amount they spend. You couldgiveaway one of your Products or Services orbetter yet, get a Vendor or Supplier to donate something of value at little or no cost to you.

[45] Joint Ventures:

A Joint Venture is any combination of Companies where one Company promotes the Product or Service from the other Company to their Client and/or Prospect Lists or possibly both Companies co-promote each other's Product or Service to both Lists. The benefits include reduced advertising costs, added credibility from the other Company's Testimonial plus all of the new found Business you obtain.

[46] Know your Numbers:

There's a great saying that "If you don't know whereyou're going, you'll probably end up someplace else". Allow me to paraphrase that by stating "If you don't know your Numbers, you probably won't go anywhere".With any typeof Advertising, you need to know your response percentage,cost per Lead and conversion rate, etc. Once you have accurate stats it becomes easy to know what needs to be tweaked for improvement, When I do Consulting, many times I've foundthat we only need to improve certain numbers or percentagesby 5 or 10% which results in a dramatic 50 to 200% overall positive impact to the Bottom Line.

[47] Gift Cards:

These add Pure Profit to yourbottom line. Firstthey add Revenue before you need to fill the Orders. Second, theybuild Brandloyalty. Third, they are a convenience for your Customers. Fourth, they canbring you new Customers.Last and most important, anywhere from 30 to 50% of all Gift Cards are NEVER redeemed.

[48] 2 quick Tips for Direct Response Ads:

First,when you instruct the Prospects to call a toll free number, explain they will only be listening to a Recorded Message and not talking to a "live" Person. This puts them at easesince they might be afraid that a "live" person might try to Sell them. Second,ask them to leave their Email Address for additional details rather than their Phone Number. This also disarms Prospects who are concerned about being bombarded with phone calls.
