SMART Marketing available on Amazon!

Dec 09 2015

Hey, I thought I’d just let you know that my books, SMART Marketing, and The SMART Marketing Workbook, are available on Amazon.

The publishers have let me know that overall, sales have gone over 1,000!

If you haven’t got it yet, get over to Amazon and get yourself a copy of both books, they will revolutionise how you market your small business.

SMART Marketing is written as a novella, a story of how a husband & wife small business discovered that they could develop their own marketing plan and focused marketing strategies by following 7 simple steps.

Business is highly competitive these days, whether you sell on the web or in a bricks and mortar store. You need an edge. You need to specifically target those customers who are set up to buy from you, who (unknown to themselves) already need your product.

The SMART Marketing methodology has been compiled from my 35 years in advising small businesses how to cut through the garbage and get to the centre of the message and grow their sales. This is experience married to practical methodology that cannot fail!

What’s in it for YOU? You will learn how, in 7 easy to follow steps, you too can transform the sales and marketing of your business. You will see how to understand the benefits of your products that the customers want, you will see which customers you are wasting your time on and which customers you need to target for easily achievable sales. You will learn how to prioritise your marketing activities so that you get the BIGGEST bang for your buck.

All my clients have benefitted from this methodology – why don’t you?

You can buy it now by clicking on this link to get you over to Amazon:-

Once you have read SMART Marketing, you can start straight away and follow the step by step methodology detailed in the book. However, if you want guidance on how to implement each phase towards getting more focused marketing and attracting the right customer already set up to buy, get The SMART Marketing Workbook, which lays out the methodology in step by step workshop format. It’s as if I were in front of you facilitating each and every question. The Workbook is complete with templates that start by capturing your product information, and then funnel it through a series of filters to arrive at your focused marketing strategies and action plans.

Managing a Mature Business – Marketing For Continued Growth

Jan 18 2022

Welcome to our continuing series on Managing a Mature Business.

Last year we published two series of articles on Starting a Small Business, and on Growing Your Business, and we started this current series on Managing a Mature Business. We finished the year with Managing a Mature Business – How to Keep Innovating and in this article, we move on to discuss how to market for continued growth. If you want to catch up, all the articles in all three series are available at Teik Oh Dot Com.

As we have seen before, the challenges in a mature business are different from those of a business startup or a growing business. Activity has plateaued. Your product may have been superseded nor the market may have changed. Following our earlier articles on managing cash flow and continuing to innovate, you may have changed your product or business model and have to attract a new target market.

As you try to reinvent yourself so that you can start the cycle again with a new growth phase, you can no longer rely on past reputations and previous histories with your old customers. Even if you are continuing your marketing activities – these may need to change.

So, what do you have to do to continue effective marketing for continued growth?

Growing Your Business With A Marketing Plan

Oct 12 2021

Many small business owners, even after the excitement of startup and in their growth phase, don’t realise the value of having a marketing plan.

I think deep down inside they think that marketing is something that “happens” when they start their business. They have something good to sell. They believe in the vision and values of their business. Build it and they will come – and if they don’t come as quickly, ok, then we might advertise.

But advertising is not marketing.

Marketing is a whole system of supportive components around your business that should be designed to attract customers who are the lowest hanging fruit. Advertising is only one component and is part of the message that you broadcast. A marketing plan designs that system to work together and the reason you need a marketing plan is to make sure that you design the system right. You need to aim with a precise focus on your target customer, not fire off a scatter-gun and hope you hit somebody!

A 5 Day Marketing Challenge For You!

Jun 01 2021

If you are a small business owner and you are not marketing, or marketing effectively, then you cannot grow.

Sorry to be so blunt.

Perhaps you will grow to some extent because you have a group of loyal customers, or you have a great product. But at some stage, unless you market your business, you will hit a very uphill slope to grow any further. In the business life cycle, this is called the “plateau” stage, and small businesses that do not market themselves get to plateau a lot earlier than other mature businesses.

The crux of the matter is that even as you grow slowly now, you cannot meet your own expectations – that dream you had for your business when you started it.

The answer is, you have to market your business.

But it need not be a massive project or an expensive affair.

Marketing is all about understanding what your product does for your target market and then telling them in an appropriate way.
