You want to market your business but you don?t want to
spend a lot of money. You may be just starting out and
have precious little capital or you may have a successful
business but want to spend as little as possible for the
greatest results. Or, you may just be cheap. How can you
create a marketing strategy that results in a steady
stream of new clients on a shoestring budget?

The key is having the KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, SYSTEMS and
TOOLS to create and implement your marketing plan.

KNOWLEDGE
While service professionals and small business owners are
experts in their business Authentic James Milner Jersey , they often don?t have the
marketing knowledge they need to grow their businesses.
If you aren?t attracting dozens of new prospects each week
and converting at least one of them to client status, you
need to learn what to do to market your business.

Depending on your budget, you can:
1. Visit your local library and read a dozen books on marketing.
2. Spend one or two hundred dollars on a couple of marketing
manuals from the marketing masters on the web.
3. Hire a marketing coach or consultant to help you learn what
to do and how to do it.
4. Pay a marketing expert to do your marketing for you.

SKILLS
Once you have a marketing plan you?ll need to develop some
marketing skills, no matter what your role is in your
organization. The three most important skills are:

1. Asking the Right Questions
Open-ended questions are the best way to direct prospects to
engage prospects Authentic Dejan Lovren Jersey , direct their thinking and learn what they
want. Do you know:
- What your prospects care about?
- The problems your prospects want to solve?
- What information your prospects want?

Use questions to get the answers. Put together 5-10 questions
to ask your prospects.

2. Listening
Listen carefully to understand, provide a synthesis of their
responses and use a problem-solving approach to provide the
link between symptoms and causes.

3. Writing Compelling Copy
The copy in your marketing materials and the copy you use for
your ?elevator speech? will make the difference between
attracting or boring prospects. Demonstrate to prospects,
that you understand their concerns and their business context,
and that you are the expert they need. Start by regularly
giving them an idea they can use.

SYSTEMS
Establish systems to support your marketing plan. Setting up
the systems to market your business costs little and make an
unmanageable task a clerical function you or your assistant can
do. You?ll need to set a schedule for marketing activities Authentic Georginio Wijnaldum Jersey ,
define responsibilities and use your computer to automate
tasks.

The most important systems to develop and implement are a
way to collect leads and stay in touch with prospects and
clients. You?ll need a centralized database and a schedule
for staying in touch with prospects and clients in order
to do this.

Automate functions where possible so you can focus your time
on delivering products and services. There is simple and
easy to use software that can help you manage contacts,
add prospects to your database and send out broadcast emails
to the people who are interested in getting your ideas.
Once you?ve put these marketing systems in place, you can
focus on handling the growing number of inquires you will
receive.

TOOLS
The tools you need to market your business will vary
depending on your target market and the products and
services you offer. The basics include:

1. Marketing materials, the finished copy you use on everything
from your business card Authentic Virgil van Dijk Jersey , to your brochures, or online.

2. Questions, the questions you use when people call about your
services, or when you meet with clients Authentic Fabinho Jersey , or to find out what
information they want so you can write the perfect proposal.

3. Communication tools, such as a phone, email and website.

Take a look at your marketing and determine if you have the
Knowledge, Skills Authentic Nathaniel Clyne Jersey , Systems and Tools to attract a steady stream
of new clients. Identify the gaps and fill them. You may need to
invest a few dollars to make many, but with frugal marketing
strategies you can limit marketing expenditures and maximize
profits.
