Keep on Advertising


I watch and listen to a lot of business people, and they all have a very common theme. December is a waste of time no one is buying. Wow that is so far from the truth.

December is a great time to advertise not only in retail but any business. The competition is very low. Most people don't try or they take the month off. That 's fine as long as your sales are good for the year. But remember less services advertising means higher visibility for your business or service.

You still need to advertise and market because January is right around the corner. I've had clients that haven't bought in a year come back and buy because of my ads. Your clients and potential clients need to see you on a consistent basis. You don't want to be behind when the new year rolls around.

Example I took a client out yesterday from Chicago that had looked and followed my content. He said that it explained all the services I offered (which saved me a lot of time). When we took him out to look at properties he was already informed and knew what he wanted. We are getting him two properties.

There are many ways to market. Blogs, ads, bookmarking, videos, audio are but a few and the cost is very low. I had 5,000 hits this last month and 20+ opt in's that want to do business.

Have a fun and happy holiday's but remember that you need a few hours everyday to tend to marketing. You may have run ads for a long time with nothing but if your consistent you will get results.

One last example when I first got in the biz I sent out 100 postcards a week. The quality of the cards were very average. I had sent them out for weeks on end without any responses, then I got a call. A gentlemen wanted me to list his land and sell it, which I did. After that he wanted 3 more investment properties which again I found them. I made $30,000+ in commissions and fees from those transactions. I also bought a home from him to live in and later sold it for $100,000 profit. That's $130,000 on one postcard that I consistently sent out.

When your ready to give up on your marketing remember you may be one postcard or hit away from making very good money! I have many other examples that have happened and know that any good business or service must be marketed to have clients and sales! Brett A Young WWW.Rooftopprofitmax.com
