2010 Marketing Season

The 2010 marketing season is fast approaching. Below are three tips to get you thinking about the upcoming season.

1.Begin making contact with the customers that you had last year. Make phone calls or personnel visits to discuss this years plans.

2.Look for ways to get your business name out to more potential customers. Design a website if you don't have one, join a growers association that can help market for you, buy adds in papers, magazines or journals that may target the area you want to market in.

3.Deliver great customer service. I read an article recently that discussed the importance of customer service. It stated that customer service was more important than quality when it came down to a determining factor of whether a customer was going to purchase from you or someone else.
