    Co-op Advertising: A Win/Win Proposition
    An easy way for a small business to expand its marketing budget is through cooperative advertising. Cooperative advertising, or as sometimes abbreviated Co-op, is when a producer of goods, for use by service providers or for resale, reimburses the advertising business in part or in full for advertising expenditures that involves its products. These programs

    Customer Service at a Hair Cut Shop
    Giving great customer service at a low-cost hair cut place is not easy these days. Consider if you will the average family with unruly kids or Hispanic families with lots of kids and many with broken English. Consider the number of people with hair lice or who have questionable hygiene and all those with ADHD who will not sit still, while you are trying like h
    I was flipping through one of those junk mail advertising circulars that landed in my mailbox a couple days ago, and I noticed a colorful, full-page glossy advertisement on page two.

The headline read: “Computer Repair, I Come to You.” “I Come to You” isn't a unique benefit anymore. If you're doing strictly retail, of course it's a nice benefit that you make house calls.

    Making the Financial Transition
    Making the financial transition from paid employment to earning a living on your own is probably the single biggest challenge facing many would be entrepreneurs. For most, the mere thought of financial insecurity holds them back from even trying. But if you have the vision, persistence and the ability to respond to market feedback the financial rewards will so

With B2B, no one is going to lug their 25-node LAN into your shop to have you work on it. So “I come to you” is nothing unique… a totally wasted headline. You just lost your window of opportunity to grab someone's attention.

    Don't Mention Price in Your IT Marketing

    Then the ad went on to say: “Computer Repair A+ and Microsoft Certified Professional, Repairs, Upgrades, One-on-One Lessons and Tutoring”. Once again, nothing unique. These things are just like everyone else in the business. But what caught my eye is half of the ad says in big letters with a color screen behind it: “Don't pay $40, $60 or $80 an hour for computer repair!
