Strategy, tactics, methods? Which one???
I have fielded a few enquiries over the past few months on how to market products and services and have noted there are a number of organisations that have started a business but had no ideas about the sales side, what tactics, strategies and or methods they will use to get people to spend $$ with them.
step 1. Know that you need a plan of action.
step 2. Know that you NEED to build a relationship with people so they trust your organisation enough to want to buy from you.
step 3. Find out what their needs are, then propose a solution.
step 4. Take time to develop all this and get it running… otherwise you will be chasing your tail…
Hope that helps!

Hi Guys, I like your blog and forum so I wrote a little post on our blog and included FBT into our Grow Smart Search. I couldn’t find a contact link on your site and there is no track back feature.. maybe another good tip to include those
