YOU must put YOUR business on the map
My mentor
Vickie Wooden instructed us to write about why it is important for you to
promote your business everywhere that you can.
If you have
a product or service that you are trying to sell how will anyone know you have
these things unless you broadcast it?
Most of the gurus say “The money is in the list.” A lot of us wonder “what list?” It’s your Lead list. This is the list of people that you can
promote your product or service to. This
is the list of people that will join your network, promote your product,
advertise that product by word of mouth, or even write a testimonial about your
product or service. You need a list.
There are
several ways to put yourself out there (or what we call brand yourself). You can write articles and send them to
article directories. This can be a good
method because those articles can give you results for months or years to come.
You can
write a blog about your business or your niche.
Blogs are updated on a daily basis so that you can give your readers
thoughts and updates on the progress you are making and the changes that are
happening through all the sources available to you and to them. When you write your blog be sure to give
relevant content and engaging content.
Make it fresh and new. Give
value. Remember, your readers are like
you. They are looking for valuable
content; something that they are interested in and are looking for answers.
Video
marketing is exploding because I believe most people would prefer to listen or
watch a video rather than read a long treatise about a subject unless they are
working on their doctorate degree.
Videos are very easy to make. If
I can make one, anyone can make one.
Plus they are fun. You can create
different characters like my mentor does and she has us all in stitches
portraying those characters. And we all
know someone like the characters she portrays.
So have fun. Make a video. Don’t forget to add your information i.e.,
contact number, website, email address, Skype name and any other ways that
someone can contact you. It may lead to a connect or a sale.
There are
many more ways to brand yourself which I may discuss in another writing.
Well, have
fun and have a great branding experience!
