Why Every Business Should Have A Marketing Plan

Marketing is what separates successful companies from unsuccessful companies. If a company has great marketing, it can have a substandard product or service and still be successful. This is sad but true. Now on the other hand, if a business has great marketing coupled with a great product or service the results can be remarkable. Take a look at all of they large companies you know today. At one point in time they were all small companies...they were not always large. When you look at what all large companies have in common though you will see that all large successful companies have been able to successfully use the power of marketing. Marketing is a powerful tool that, if done well, it can propel any business' success to heights beyond your wildest dreams. In order to be successful at marketing the very first step requires having a plan. As with anything, if you do not have a plan, the chances of you getting where you want to go or reaching your goals will be low. Start creating a plan today, to get the marketing of your business moving in the right direction. If you think you will need help completing the template, consider our marketing plan training program.

Blue Host - is a great place to host your website as they have excellent prices and all there services come with free 24/7 live technical support. The live support can be accessed by phone, email, live chat or by submitting a support ticket. The technical support is very good and they are based out of Utah in the United States. It also come with a content system installed such as wordpress, Joomla, Drupal and 50 others.

Blue Host
Acymailing - this is the best email marketing program on the marketing because it comes with live customer support that is incredibly fast and helpful. They are so helpful they will even take product improvement/capability ideas and build these into the software. It is also incredibly inexpensive as it is only about $130.00 initially and then only $40.00 a year (most programs a that much per month). The program tracks opens, reads, clicks, bounces and fails and all these stats are downloadable to excel. It also gives you the ability to set up autoresponder email campaigns. The challenge is that this software only works on Joomla websites. If you don't have a Joomla website I would look at Aweber instead. acymail logo

Aweber - behind having a website the next best return on investment marketing you can use for your business is email marketing. Aweber is a great service because it is easy to use, has a higher delivery rate than many other solutions, allows you to easily build email newsletter signup forms for your website and they have good customer support.

ClickTale - is a great free service that provides heat map, click map, scroll reach, attention maps and form exit analytics. There are paid packages as well but for the average small business free accounts will be sufficient. This information is very useful in understanding how people interact with your site, what is working on your website and what is not. With this information you will be able to make improvements to is that will lead to more website sales.

Clicky - is a website analytics program that tracks much of the same data as Google Analytics. We use clicky to get to what individual users are on our website, what individual users are doing, understand what time of day users are using our website and double check Google Analytics data. Clicky is very good at (and better than Google Analytics) time of day tracking and for looking at individual website user behavior. In addition with their paid service you can spy and watch users mouse moves as they are on your site, track downloads, video watches and other events.

Session Cam - is a great service you can use for free to record what people are doing on your website. There are paid services as well that give you most features and more capacity to keep more recordings. For the average small business the free plan will be sufficient.

Note: we do not currently use Aweber but would if we were not using Acymailing.

Constant Contact - Constant contact is also another good email marketing alternative. I like Aweber over constant contact because with Aweber it is easier to build email list opt-in forms for your websites and the delivery rate is a little higher. Constant contact does have an easy to user interface. The other downside with constant contact is that the amount of emails in an autoresponder campaign is limited to 10, where as with Aweber and Acymailing there is no limit to the number of emails in an autoresponder campaign.

Note: we use Constant Contact for one of our clients and it works very well.

 

Sales Training

Profitworks Sales Training - our sales training provides great return on investment as it provides training that will have an immediate impact on your sales growth and it is at a fraction of the cost of other sales training programs or courses.

NetTalk - is an excellent low cost phone service for small businesses that only need a single phone line. It requires that you have a good internet connection (Packetworks is a great option for this). I would not recommend Nettalk for larger companies, for larger companies I would again recommend they go to Packetworks for their phone an internet service. For smaller business though Nettalk can not be beaten on their price and features.

Zipcloud - is a very cost effective cloud storage service. If you have been using Google Drive, Microsoft Skydrive or Dropbox and run out of space Zipcloud is a good option. We have not used Zipcloud but the pricing looks very good and backup precautions they take are excellent.

Note: we do not currently use Zipcloud as Google Drive is currently enough space for our business.

Profitworks Easy To Use Accounting Software - this software is both the lowest cost (it is free and will always be free) and the easiest to use (it is in excel so if you know how to use excel, you will know how to use this software)..period. It is so easy to use the entire manual is only 6 pages long. If you are small business you can't find a better solution. We use this program for our business and it is one of the best decisions we ever made.
