31 Days to Success Day 26: The Key To Business Success
I talk to people all the time who tell me that home business just didn’t work for them. When I ask specific questions about what they did or didn’t do to build their business, I find that most failed to develop and implement a successful marketing plan. You cannot make money in your business if you don’t have people buying what you have. And you can’t get people to buy what you have if you don’t let them know about it.
Before you do anything, you need to develop your marketing strategies that need to include:
1) What are you offering and why is it different from everyone else’s?
2) Who will benefit from what you have? Women? Single people? Kids? etc.
3) How will they benefit from what you have? Become thinner, richer, stronger, etc?
4) Where do these people hang out? What magazines do they read? What websites do they visit?
Use the answers to the above questions to create marketing materials (ads, articles, blogs, websites, brochures, publicity, etc) that speak directly to your market. Develop a plan that involves marketing your business everyday whether its giving out business cards, running an ad, writing an article, or calling someone.
Visit your library or bookstore and get books on copywriting, marketing, and publicity.
