Hi there, as a total newbie to running my own business I have found your advice here interesting and valuable. I have no knowledge of marketing and would really appreciate a win
Ethics Trading has been running for 5 years now and I’d love an injection of ideas to kick things into a higher gear. It’s all in a bit of a slump at the mo.
I need some new ideas, so have my fingers crossed!
Calin Bleu has been running for 5 years and we have some exciting new projects for this year, it would be great to have some fresh ideas to market them
I would be happy with either book, although the digital one is probably more up my street. I am a writer and want to help people market their business with the right words- and I think Web 2.0 is the way to go. Great blog btw!
I really got into swing with Tums2Mums when I went on maternity leave 2 years ago. Business is going really well despite my lack of knowledge in marketing. I have picked up some tips from you already and would really like to put some more focus into marketing now particularly as I’ve got some exciting new projects in the pipeline.
Such a brilliant idea.
I love your site and read your blog all the time
I could do with some more help marketing too
Oooh these books look great – I really need some more expert knowledge to motivate and kick start a marketing plan (your blog is fab)
Great timing for this offer – we’re looking at options for marketing our ecommerce web design solution to a broader audience at the moment!
Having relied on word of mouth recommendations and search engines over the 7 years we’ve been in business, actively marketing is a new thing to us.
I’m on the lookout for new and interesting ideas for marketing Stallfinder so this would be very useful.
Always open to recieving new marketing ideas!
Thanks
Hi, I am new to your site and off now to read more. My business is still in its infancy but showing real signs of promise. I am however new to the world of marketing and keen to hear other people feedback.
Good luck everyone – I am looking forwards to reading more blogs – what a great idea!
I have a background in marketing, I’m loving it and thinking about starting my own business. I believe the knowledge I have and this site will be of great help in handling my marketing activities.
Marketing & PR was a new area for me and one I’ve loved since starting our on-line business over 3 years ago. It’s an opportunity to be creative and is a challenge to come up with ideas that make the business shine. I was once told to be a “one-woman PR machine” and that’s what I try to be! Thanks Antonia for all the ideas, advice and tips via your newsletter, blog and twitter!
We have done practically all the marketing of our business for free so far! We use online marketing a lot, registering with as many other websites and forums as we can. We also call in lots of ‘favours’ when it comes to advertsising and have been lucky to have press releases picked up by various publications. We run a business book library for the members of our WAHM networking group, so if I was lucky enough to win either of the books it would benefit all our members individually as well as me
The best marketing tool is referrals!!!
I keep in touch with my customers with mailshots and am constantly sourcing new products to keep them enticed!
Great customer service goes a long way too!!
