Have a plan in mind

• By which means will you advertise? (internet, flyers, newspapers)

• How often will you run a marketing campaign?
• Who do you want to attract with the marketing?

Once you have identified the answers to these questions, you will find it a lot easier to prevent having a bad marketing plan.

Thinking close to home

You will need to think clever on this one, to ensure that you attract the right elements in the community and that it is relative to your marketing campaign, as well as to your product or service. When the people see something familiar, they will be more likely to be interested in your business.

Do not over sell or market your business

These are just some of the few things that you can consider before you market your business again. It is a sure thing that it will direct you in the right way and a more effective marketing plan is guaranteed.
