Another great set of marketing tips you can apply to your business now!

1. Create a press release for your business and add something different. Check out our post on How to Promote your Business using PR for some tips.

2. Ask your clients to refer you to someone. This sounds so simple doesn't it? But I bet you haven't done it yet! You will be surprised how well this works.

3. Ask 5 clients for a testimonial and add it to your website and collateral. The key with testimonials is to be specific with your request. For example, ask for a testimonial on your quality of work or on your service etc. Also ask for a picture of the person giving the testimonial.

4. Create a direct marketing list and start calling one person a day. You list can be from people you have met or simple Google searching of your target clients. Line up some clients that are happy to give you a testimonial that you can mention to the person you are calling.

5. Do you have a store front? Have a new theme each month but don't over crowd the space. Make sure these themes are also inside the store and on your website. See them as "campaigns" for your store.

Stay tuned for next weeks tips!
