The human person is always up and about 24/7. Anywhere you find yourself around people (with the exception of a cemetery), you can market your business successfully if you are very good at “pitching” your business one-on-one. To succeed in doing so, you must at all times when you are out and about be in possession of the following SFI/TripleClicks items which are very important to your marketing efforts.
1. Custom Business cards.
2. A portable SFI emblazoned writing pad.
3. A good SFI marked ballpoint pen.
4. Your Payoneer Card (if you have one).
5. TripleClicks Decal prominently displayed in your car.
6. SFI marked token gift items.
7. SFI marked T-shirts (better still, if you are wearing one.)
8. SFI Gift Cards.
9. WAVE 3 X-Cards.
10. A Smart phone (enabled with SFI/TripleClicks apps).
If you have these items, you can easily get noticed in a group which makes it relatively easier for you to engage someone else with SFI discussions at all times. Arising from your discussions, you could leave them a phone number or any other contact for further discussions and or follow-up. You can ask people for their business cards them clear from them if it is ok for you to email more information later. Alternatively, you can give people your business card then encourage them to open communications with you on any subject matter relating to the business you discussed with them. Offer without being asked your assistance to help them with marketing online if they have any problems doing so.
Specifically, you can do the following when out and about:
-Put your Gateway(s) on notepads, pens, newsletters, bumper stickers, coffee cups and give out as gifts.
-Flyers: When you buy your morning paper, slip some flyers in with the rest of the newspapers.
-Bookmark for libraries but do not forget to talk to your librarian first.
-Leave your business cards in restrooms at restaurants or on cork boards around grocery stores.
-Leave your business cards in restaurants with your tips.
-Conveniently “forget’ your business cards or flyers in taxis/buses/trains.
-Leave your flyers in shopping malls and hotel receptions if you obtain permission to do so.
-Set up a free giveaway box in any store that will give you permission.
-Post flyers at apartment complexes if they will allow it.
-Place flyers under windshield wipers of cars.
-Put flyers on car windshields at your kids sporting events.
-Leave business cards by the change machine in the mall arcade or at the ATM machine.
-When you are out and about mixing with people, try to be different and get noticed. When you are unique then you can easily get perfect strangers to take you and your business seriously.
These are about the best ways I can think of right now how you can be successful to market your business if you are out and about.
