Have you noticed it? More and more marketing campaigns are going over the top. They're trying bolder, more in-your-face tactics. And consumers DON'T like it.

There's a growing resistance toward advertising. According to a recent study by Yankelovich Partners (a marketing company) 60% of consumers have a much more negative opinion of marketing and advertising than they did a few years ago. 65% already feel overwhelmed with too many marketing messages. And 61% feel the volume is out of control.

Beat consumer negativity and resistance by precisely targeting the "tar-ket" of your audience. (Remember a "tarket" is the single person you write your copy to rather than the mob of your entire "target market". "Target" plus "market" equals "tarket").

When you tap into the psyche of your tarket, you understand better how to approach your marketing.

So pull those boxes out of storage. Grab that big chunky 'swipe' file. Collect up your competitor's promotions. Query your past customers. Get it all together. I mean EVERYTHING. Your business history, promotions, flyers and articles. Where did you file that business plan that you created when you first started? How has the message evolved since you wrote it?

Doing your due diligence is cheap insurance against consumer resistance. Know what your tarket wants. Not what YOU THINK he or she wants.

It is important that your customers know your credit policy and/or terms of payment, BEFORE they become a customer. Reiteration of your credit policy, when payment is overdue, is a good step to take in trying to obtain payment. Always ask for payment when it is justly due.

Imagine that you run a small business and your potential customer base can change by as much as 200% depending on the time of year. This is a reality that affects many small towns, tourist and resort areas worldwide. There is a solution, and not surprisingly, it is web-based.
