Marketing Plans are Living Documents

As a small business, do you feel that your marketing efforts need something of a boost? This is one area of business where it seems that problems often aren't evident until it's almost too late. Marketing is frequently seen as being something that is about building for the long-term. It's not an area of the business that is likely to involve deadlines and desperate customers. This may be why it sometimes drops down the list of priorities.

How can you ensure that your marketing gets the focus that it needs and deserves? At the back of your mind, you should always be thinking that marketing holds the key to the long-term success of your business.  Having a marketing plan in place gives you direction.  But you must always look at your marketing plan as a living document.  Therefore, you need to make a real effort to make time for marketing by setting aside assigned periods within your work week to focus on marketing.  And you need to be working to your marketing plan.  Every step that you take should be about helping to meet the aims and objectives of this marketing plan.
