4 Ways Small Businesses Can Maximize Their Marketing Dollars

 

Now is the perfect time to implement some proven, simple marketing strategies.  Here are five tips for business owners to maximize their marketing without busting the budget.

 

1.    Create a referral system: Getting clients is as easy as asking your best clients who else they know that would happily benefit from your services. Satisfied clients are usually more than happy to share this information--sometimes they just need to be asked!

 

2.    Create relationships with influential people:  Create relationships with natural networkers who like and respect you and who love connecting people.  They can refer you to the right people.

 

3.    Develop strategic alliances: Strategic alliances are people who share the same target audience or clients as you do, but whose company or service doesn't overlap with yours

 

4.    Build your database: If you want to build your business quickly, build your database. And use that list of clients and potential clients to offer an incentive.

Using a set of proven marketing strategies that are simple and effective will help small businesses save a lot of financial stress.  Implement one strategy at a time. When that strategy is getting results, move onto the next strategy.
