Marketing and a bad economy

Marketing and advertising in a bad economy.

Save money, by catching your target audience, with a website design that keeps the reader on your site. The longer someone is on your website, the better chance you have of converting them into a client.

Here are a few things to think about for keeping your potential clients on your site.
1. Is the information that you want your clients to see easily accessible?
2. Is your content, specific to the point, and gives the reader the specific details to make them want to buy?
3. Do you have a call to action on each page?
4. Are your images crisp, and do they compliment the content on the page?
5. Is your content specific to each page?

One of the biggest issues we find with websites, are they are poorly built, and the content is all over the place. Spend the time to write content that is specific to the topic on the page. Place nice images throughout to keep the readers eyes on the page, and have a website design company look at your site to help make the site flow correctly, and make it easy on the eyes for the reader.

Going Green with Soy Inks

SOY INKS and your marketing materials.

The reality of life is we are all destroying the environment, from the cars we drive and the pollution we produce. One thing that can help is printing with SOY INKS. Commercial printing produces a lot of waste and a ton of pollution, but we can't stop advertising, printing newspapers and magazines or marketing materials. First of all it would put a lot of people (like myself) out of business, but we would have no way of building our businesses.

When you deal with a graphic designer, or you are having your marketing materials reprinted, ask to use SOY INKS. It is produced by extracting oil out of soybeans (grown in the USA), a NON-TOXIC material. By using soy inks, you are growing the United States economy, by creating a market for domestic crops, also decreasing the dependence of petroleum oil from over seas.

It's a win, win for our kids.

Check out this article by Jennifer Proia, she put a great article together and was the inspiration fror this blog. http://www.graphic-design.com/DTG/Business/greenprint.html

Getting Noticed

Marketing Materials and small business.

Lets keep this short and sweet. Small business owners are always trying to get in front of as may people as they can. The problem is, most of them don't have the marketing materials, or even a business card that stands out above the rest. Here is a small test, take 5 business cards and place them on a table with your card. Which card stands out in your head, is it yours? If your answer is yes, then you are one step ahead of the other 5 companies. If the answer is no, and you do not notice your card, how do you expect others to remember you.
