This time of the year is the perfect time to contact all your current clients and potential leads you have been talking to.
4 Tips For Marketing Your Business During The Holidays 2020
With our current clients we contact them by phone to tell them how much we appreciate their business and ask if they need anything. We make follow up calls to current clients on a regular basis, but I find with these calls around the holidays we regularly pick up 6-10 new projects just by taking the time to call personally and tell them thanks for their business.
With sales leads and potential clients, contacting them to wish them happy holidays gives you a great reason to keep in front of them, let them know you care and that you are there for them when they are ready to purchase without seeming needy.
Growing Your Business
I know that some of you may be thinking it's too late to prepare and you don't have time to market your business right now. In that case, I recommend you do the two simple things I do when I have waited until the last minute to plan: 1. Schedule 2 hours within the next week to prepare a quick plan that will get you through the holidays this year. 2. Schedule any amount of time you have, 1 hour 2 hours or 10 hours, and call as many current clients as you can in that time frame. You will be surprised how much you get accomplished doing these two things.
Lastly, right now, write on your 2014 marketing calendar in the Month of October , HOLIDAY MARKETING CAMPAIGN! Then you'll be sure to be ahead next year.
