But rest assured, as soon as you dial your targeting in. Your customized, laser focused marketing message, will definitely start to consistently pay off.
And (believe it or not), help you or your major competitors, build some rock solid, mutually beneficial JV (Joint Venture) or cross promotional relationships. Which can and will pay some type of marketing dividends for years and years to come.
Take a closer look and see for yourself.
Who Else Wants To Discover How The Right Marketing Message Can And Definitely Will Make All The Difference!
Let’s face it. There is no shortage of ways, for you and I or your major competitors to try and get the word out. About your extremely valuable products or services, right? Indeed. You can send, text messages.
You can send both pre-written or previously unscheduled broadcast messages.Right? You can send direct snail mail post cards. Or use paid solo ads.
You can either start your own podcast or use guest podcasting or both. (Click the link, if you’d like to see the entire 33 minute video replay, of a recent “guest podcast” appearance. I recently did. Sharing some market tested, low hanging fruit marketing strategies for small business owners and service providers. Watch the first video at the top of the page.)
Anyway. You can of course create laser targeted blog or video content. You can do guest blogging. Or strategically use Google Hangouts. Or do a zoom recording and simply upload your video content youtube or vimeo etc.
And this doesn’t even adequately scratch the marketing or promotional surface does it? there’s local or national radio. Local TV or local newspaper. Private on or offline newsletters. And of course, good ole fashion, positive, viral word of mouth or mouse buzz.
Virtual (video) appearances etc. But here’s the deal. No matter what or which marketing/promotional mediums you ultimately settle on. If (for whatever reasons), your main marketing message. Meaning your targeting is slightly off the mark.
There’s a very good chance, your end results, won’t be nearly as profitable, as they can potentially be or become.
Consistently Crafting A Laser Targeted Marketing Message Is Definitely Worth The Time And Effort!
Try this potential marketing message, as an incredibly simple way, to build the positive reputation (brand) of your service. Let’s say you run single location cleaning service.
And your companies overall reputation is.Your service provides quality work, with outstanding customer service, for affordable prices. And over the years, (even though) your local competition is steadily increased.
Your initial, repeat customer base has not only remained rock solid. But over the years, your long term, repeat customer base has steadily grown. And now you’re definitely ready to take your service to the very next level or two.
And you wisely anticipate, consistently implementing this proven customer service marketing gesture, will definitely take your service to the very next level or two.

To be used in any way they wish. But they have to be completely used up, within one year from the day they are received. Otherwise they automatically forfeit any remaining unused balances.
So needless to say. You or your major competitors, should easily build, a very responsive and rather large opt in email or text message list, correct? Absolutely.
Any Time You Have The Opportunity To Take Your Customers Service To The very Next Level Or Two! (Take It Immediately!)

Basically, you’re helping one or possibly going forward. Several of your long time customers, market/promote their house, they’re currently selling. Say what? That’s correct.
Your customer simply supplies you with an updated picture. Along with a home made video, of the entire inside of their house. And their back yard.And their complete description includes, their current asking price.
Their main cell phone number. Which either has a pre-recorded message or the seller(s) will either pick up. Or they leave instructions and they only show the property by appointment only.
