BUT FIRST
Remember when your parents introduced you to a new food or recipe and your initial reaction may have been, “I don’t like it.” Even before
you had tasted it. Then what happened. Later in life it probably became one of your favourite foods.
It is important to take note, you are not your customer.
What this means is, stay open to the ideas you are being
presented with and don’t say, “It wouldn’t work for me”. .
Collect customers details; (Minimum - Only need First Name, Email Address)
Collect prospects details – opt-in lists;
Contact people who have a reasonable inference to receive your emails;
(i.e. past customers; old files; lost leads and any person whom has a reasonable likelihood of using your products and services )

I am not doing any marketing to my database of customers and
clients I currently have;
I want to write powerful marketing messages to them - but I don’t
have the skills;
I want to send out promotions to them - but I don’t have the time;
I want to increase the number of prospects - but I don’t know where
or how to get leads

All businesses surveyed knew their inability to handle just one or more of these frustrations
was costing them MONEY.
