5 Successful Marketing Tips
5 Successful Marketing Tips
If you are seeking ways to market your site, but aren't certain about how to do so with little or no money, then here are a few tips that you may find quite valuable in spreading news about your organization. An excellent way to relay news about your Website or organization is to:
1. Go to www.prweb.com/ PR Web is a superb venue for networks, websites, companies and many other similar organizations to create free press releases to the public. You may submit as many press releases as you wish (so long as they are not advertisements) and at no cost to you or your organization. E.g., "....Holistic Junction Introduces "The Marketplace...." and write a small piece on what you offer, where it is offered and how it could be helpful to others. Never list costs - as this is considered a form of advertising.
2. Go to www.free-press-release.com/ Free Press Release is another press release organization that offers the same opportunities as PRWeb.
3. Submit articles to several websites about topics in which your site engages. Always be sure to include a resource box that lists author name, and website link. Never include products or services in the body of your article, as these articles are all too often rejected. A good site where you may submit
articles to is http://www.goarticles.com/
4. Participate in a reciprocal linking program that will list your site. The more resources you add to your site in this manner, the more your organization will shine in the public eye.
5. Attitude. Proficient communication is a must. When contacting potential clients, always maintain a positive and professional attitude. Be clear and concise. Always be cheerful in your greetings, and never lose your temper. Remember, the best marketing representation goes hand-in-hand with a friendly demeanor.
Finally, the finest technique of marketing is exemplified in the movie, "Miracle on 34th Street." St. Nicholas, is a savvy entrepreneur who displays the best qualities of being a successful marketing agent. Not only does he achieve a brilliant rapport with his "cliental," he manages to win over more customers by providing them with useful information -- even if it didn't come from his own employer.
Sometimes, an ounce of kindness -- coupled with the utmost professionalism, can make the difference between success and failure. Just some thoughts.
