Marketing tip for the New Year from Creative Alliance Design in Lake Zurich

Here's an easy tip to get you started out right for the New Year.  Send out a direct mailing thanking your customers for their patronage in 2011 and sharing what you hope to bring them in 2012. Make sure you’re top of mind as the New Year hits.

Business goals for 2012

"If you don't change the path you're travelling, you'll end up where you're going."


Simply put, if you don't change how you do things, then your results won't change either.
So, if your business isn't profitable, then you're probably headed down the wrong path.


If you want 2012 to be different than 2011, than you need to make a change.


I would love for you to look back at this time next year, and think about how you were able to:
increase your sales, get and keep quality customers, and improve your marketing plan.
In 2012, focus on your own thriving business, and forget about the competition.



Happy New Year from Creative Alliance Graphic Design in Lake Zurich, Illinois!

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

you tube is great for your seo

Manta suggests that people have the tendency to watch videos over reading text, so you might consider using YouTube to promote your business. It can give people a stronger sense of your business and can set you up as an expert in your field. And that means more sales. This approach is especially effective in reaching out to young audiences.
What they fail to mention is that YouTube's keywords are ranked really high with Google.  Many times YouTube videos get better Google page 1 rankings than the 'organic' website.  If you haven't posted a video for your business to YouTube, you're missing out!
