Your business is finally operating, your immediate community knows about it, but how do you attract the extra traffic, for a reliable income base?
Advertise.
There are many types of advertising, so choosing the one that is both effective, and reasonable, is paramount to your earning power. To maximize advertising benefits you do not need much cash, but creativity and common sense, once applied, are effective.
Testing your chosen type of advertisement before sanctioning it into use will save you time and money. Advertisements are like product samples you will not know what works unless it is tested.
How to test:
Using surveys will not help you to decide which method of ads is working for you. Instead of running, multiple forms of advertisements schedule them into periods.
Example: Radio ad: weeks 1-3. Newspaper ad: weeks 4-6 etc.
In doing this, measuring the result is easier, enabling you to choose the most successful method for your business.
When to spend:
If you are not an advertisement expert, spending large sums on an ad campaign could be detrimental. Avoid this by doing your research; will the benefit be greater than the costs? How will it affect your business if the campaign falls through? Satisfy these questions honestly to determine your next move.
Saving with creativity:
Being able to sell your business does not always have to be expensive. News travels fast.
Get yourself out there through: word of mouth, business cards and Non-Prime time advertisements.
Word of mouth:
Between good customer service and simple gossip, get the word out about your business. Friends, family and customers are good ways to start the trend.
Business Cards Are Effective:
Attend business functions like launches, the Annual General Meeting for your bank or even concerts; strike up a conversation, be sure to leave your card and get someone else’s in return. Check your local printer for deals on business card batches and get started.
P.S. leaving a few at the counter of a store or other public place is another method.
Non-Prime time advertisements:
Setting up ads for your business to run at off-peak hours on radio and television is another cheap method. It is just as effective. Usually for radio, peak hours are between 8am- 5pm and for television, it is between 7pm-10pm.
Find out what suits you best and work with it.
Practicing advertisement continuously will pay off. As you perfect, your methods, (combination at various points is beneficial), your business will give the rewards.
