Every Friday I am going to give you great ideas on how you can grow your business! I’m going to blow your mind!
  1. Do not do random acts of marketing
    1. If you’re answering NO to these questions, then you don’t have a solid marketing plan and you’re probably winging it:
      1. Do you know what program, product or service you’ll be promoting at the end of the month? If the answer is no you should work write a marketing plan
      2. Is there a specific follow-up sequence that you have written out for new prospects that you meet? If the answer is no, you should write a follow-up plan
    2. When you are not committed to a marketing plan then it’s a lot easier to fall victim to the “SQUIRREL” marketing mindset.
    3. For you to put yourself in a position to win, you need to have a game plan. A game plan requires a marketing plan, so set yourself up for success and write out your marketing plan
    4. Eric is doing his mid-year planning class, make sure you’re going to that!
  2. Make sure you’re presenting yourself well and that it’s easy to find out how to contact you
    1. Look at your social media profiles through the eye of someone who has never met you before… is it easy for them to get an idea of how you can help them?
    2. Review your website and ask yourself, “will a new prospect know how I can serve them, and do I make it easy for them to reach out to me?”
