Salon Marketing: Are you connecting?

Salon Marketing:

I go to a well-known salon. Regularly. However, I never receive emails or anything from them. I don't know if there's a promotion or special or even if they are still in business.

In other words...I go to them, but they never come to me.

If you're not connecting with your customers often and consistently, you're missing out on valuable referrals and repeat customers as well as up-selling products, etc. By offering something as simple as a monthly email, you're letting your customers know that you have something to say and care about them.

Just keep in mind, if you do contact them, have something to say of value. Don't just promote yourself--remember, people want to know what's in it for them. Have a good article on the latest styles or colors, promote a stylist in the salon or new services, etc. Give good valuable information and you'll not only get better client retention, but likely some good referrals and new customers.

The All Powerful PLATFORM for Non-Fiction Writers

Do you have a platform? If you don't know what this is, or don't have one, don't even think about writing your book. This is the advice from publishing big-wigs like Arielle Ford. Of course, this isn't new, but it's now the MUST HAVE marketing for nearly any non-fiction writer who truly desires to make any money with his/her book. As most books don't sell many copies, authors are to rely on back-end deals like speaking engagements and selling other programs to truly rake in the cash. As a writer, the problem exists: Most writers who truly write are not really going to want to get up and speak in front of crowds and hawk their wares (books), right? So how to overcome this? For my money, I'm guessing teleseminars and maybe video seminars could work. Also, developing programs that are pricer that you can upsell to readers who enjoy your topics. In other words, don't be complacent and think as an author you're just going to write books and make m...

How to Market: ART - An Artist's Guide to Simple, Cheap and Effective Online Marketing

I've been a marketing "expert" for a while. I use the term expert very loosely, but I know more than the average bear on what it takes to market effectively, affordably and reasonably online. I'm also an artist, so I've put these practices into place. Here's what I've found: -You do NOT need to pay for fancy artist-only sites to host your online  presence -You DO need more than just a Facebook page (come on people, professionals have websites and you should, too) -You do NOT need to pay for online ads, PPC, retargeting, etc. -You DO need some sort of social media presence -You do NOT need to do long-winded blogs posts -You DO need to post somewhere (blog or website) at least 3x per month and be able to share those posts Now, do you need a special domain? YES! Always own your own name. Always, always, always. Plus, you should have a site that is branded. By this I mean if you are a watercolorist special...

Is your home party plan business failing?

I've done a TON of work with the home party plan industry and here's what I've found in the past nine years of working with and for them: 1. They want to succeed, they just don't get the right tools to do everything they can with their business. Why? Because many well-meaning mentors still use old and out-dated methods that most people just are not going to do. For example: Talking to everyone you know about your business...really? Only the most out-going (and dare I say, irritating?) people might be able to accomplish this. Another gem: Circle of influence. Yes, it's a great start, but boy-oh-boy can it be limiting. You have to get out there to make yourself known and it usually goes way beyond your own social circle. 2. They don't have lots of cash for marketing. Most home sellers make about $10,000 a year (or much less or more). It's just an average figure and one that doesn't give lots of room for spending money on marketing. Even $...
