Get Business Now:
   Play by the Marketing Rules

   By Charlie Cook

«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»
Marketing a business is like any game. If you know the rules
you are much more likely to win. All to often small
businesses spend their limited time and money on advertising,
networking, making calls, mailings, meeting with prospects,
yet only achieve middling results. The problem isn't that
they don't know their business or provide high quality products
and services, its that they don't know the rules of the
marketing game.
 
Marketing To Win
To win the marketing game, you need to know the rules. The key
rules to getting the clients you want are:
 
1. Market Solutions
2. Target Your Market
3. Demonstrate Value
4. Build Your Network
5. Stay in Touch
 
1. Market Solutions
Most service professionals focus their marketing on their
expertise, their approach and the products and services they
offer. While competence is a key to doing the work, most
clients' primary concern is getting problems solved and having
their spoken and unspoken needs met. Instead of marketing your
credentials, your processes and methodology, market your
knowledge and the solutions you offer.
 
Marketing is about making connections, specifically between a
client's unmet need and the solutions you provide. The best way
to impress clients is to show them you understand the problems
they are experiencing. If you want to leverage your credentials,
mention past clients when you provide examples of how you solved
similar problems.
 
2.  Target Your Market
Are you getting a positive response to your marketing efforts?
If not, then you may not have targeted your market and their
specific needs and interests precisely enough. Independent
professionals or small business owners often try to do the
impossible and be everything to everybody. Instead define your
niche market and get the attention of this group.
 
3. Demonstrate Value
Actions speak louder than words. If you want clients to be
aware of the value of your products or services, you will need
to give them a test drive. Open the door with newsletters,
workshops, a free session or articles found on your web site.
Over time demonstrating the value you provide will convince
prospective clients of your ability to solve their problems and
help position you as a trusted advisor.
 
4. Build Your Network
The objective is to know who is interested in your products and
services. Networking is a good idea because people like to buy
products from people they know and trust. If they've met you or
been referred to you they are more likely to trust you.
 
Depending on the business you are in, you can build your
network of prospects through conventional networking or through
your web site and email. Either way the more qualified prospects
you have in your network the better.
 
5. Stay in Touch
Memories are short. Once we hit middle age most of us can't
remember what we had for dinner two days ago, much less the
host of services various firms provide. In most cases its safe
to assume your target market has forgotten about the range of
solutions you offer, if they remember you at all.
 
Stay in touch with your target market on a monthly or, at a
minimum quarterly basis. When you contact people be clear about
the action you want prospective, existing and past clients to
take.
 
Win the Marketing Game
Once you know the rules to marketing you can apply them to map
out your marketing strategy, and to select marketing tactics
that will leave your competition in the dust.

4.) COOLBIZ SITE
__________________________

Web Gallery of Art
 
"The Web Gallery of Art contains over 11,000 digital
reproductions of European paintings and sculptures created
between the years 1150 and 1800." Many of the works are
supplemented with commentary on the technique and the
biography of the artist. The site is continually being
updated and expanded. Several navigational tools are
available: guided thematic tours, a 'Quick Index' of a
simple alphabetic list of artists, an 'Artist's Index'
of detailed information on the artist, as well as other
search methods that enable the gallery visitor to
'understand the artistic and historical relationship
between different artworks and artists included in the
collection.' The developers, Emil Kren and Daniel Marx,
describe their site to be, "on one hand . . . a source of
artistic enjoyment; a convenient alternative to visiting a
distant museum, or an incentive to do just that. On the
other hand, . . . a tool for public education both in
schools and at home." Take your own Gallery tour and decide
for yourself!

HOT BIZTIP
_____________________

How To Change Font Size on Taskbar Buttons
  
I recently used a friend's PC and found that I could hardly read
the task bar buttons, because the Font was so small for my tired
old eyes. I changed the size and my friend was staggered. Like
all Newbies, he didn't know they could be changed - let alone how
to do it. So he'd simply soldiered on and kept his supply of eye
drops topped up.
 
Would you like larger Fonts on your taskbar buttons? Here's
how to do it...
 
1. Right click anywhere on your Desktop (not on an icon) and
the context menu appears.
 
2. From the context menu, select Properties, and the Display
Properties window appears.
 
3. Select the "Appearance" tab by clicking on it once.
 
4. Select the "Active Title Bar" from the "Item:" drop down
list.
 
5. Adjust the font size, color, bold, or italics using the
selectors to the right of the font box.
 
6. Click Apply to see how things will look, then OK to put
the Display Properties dialog box away.
 
Before closing the Display Properties window, you can save
your setup as a "scheme". Click the "Save As..." button, and
give you new setup a name. Then you can select it from the
list you'll see under "Scheme:" next time you want to fiddle
around a bit.
 
The Save As button will give you a "Save this color scheme as"
window... you may not have a color scheme, but any changes
you make will be called such. So they should have named this
box "Save scheme as" instead of "Save color scheme as"... but
whatever. You get the point.
 
You can fiddle with any of the options in this window to
create exactly the appearance you desire. Why limit
yourself to the "out of the box" appearance of Windows? Go
ahead... customize to your heart's content!
