Today's businesses goes on different rules than the rules in the past, today marketing your business is
the key to your existance, if you didn't market your business you are not in the picture, but what
after marketing ?
Lets say you are a business owner that was in the past based on your father's relations or your relations, your customers gets marketing messages from your competitors even if they aren't willing to cooperate with your competitors but they still want to hear and see what they have to offer, even if your competitors can't compete with your prices, they will compete with you in the services and facilities that they can offer more than you, and they sure have more than you because they introduces their businesses better than you using the new rules of marketing and market reading, what is going to happen next is one customer after another will be going away from you and cooperate with the new companies that provides the same services and products that you do.
Another point that you have to keep in mind that even if you didn't lose your existing customers you aren't going to grow because of your limited number of customers, also by time your customers will know that you are depending on them and only them so you have to make sure not to lose them and keep providing them under the worest circumstances which will hurt your financial balance on a time or maybe all the time.
What you should do to keep your customers ?
keeping the customers is not hard but also not that simple but there is simple rules that you should keep in mind
1- Market your business all the time any time a year
2- Keep in developing your company image
3- Keep developing your offers, services and facilities
4- Keep reading and be aware of your market and your competitors
This way will customers list will keep growing, by attracting new customers your existing customers will never think about risking losing you as a provider but always going to see you as the provider they can trust.
I know i toke you away from my point but i had to explain the above point to make sure you'll get
the importance of the corporate material in marketing which is
When you market your business to a new customer you should introduce your self to that new customer who doesn't know what kind of business you are runing, he wants to know about your business stability, your clients, your work samples, the projects you manged before, all of that they can get from the following
( your company profile, company catalog, your website, your presentation CD)
These are your tools to introduce your business through your marketing process, so the corporate material now becomes the image that is going to be delivered to your potential customers, believe me its a very sensitive step, when your customer recieves your company profile or visiting your website they take what we call the FIRST IMPRESSION which of course if its not right you lost their interest in your company.
