Tuesday I attended a networking event. I met many interesting entrepreneurs and business professionals. I was also blown away by the number of butt-ugly, unprofessional and down right cheesy business cards that were passed out.

If you are seven years old and selling lemonade, OK, I’ll cut you some slack. But if you are or expecting to sell at least $10,000 of good or services in year, you need to invest in an effective business card that best reflects your value, quality and expertise. Business cards are often the first impression a new contact gets and the lasting impression that is filed for future connections.

Buying a preprinted template is a big mistake no matter what industry you are in. It implies you the smallest potato you can be and most buyers will not be turned on by this status as most are looking for experts with a history of success.

Even if this means skipping a meal to pay a professional to help you, your business card is one of the most important branding touch points.

4 must do moves to make sure your business card is working with you, and not against you.

1) Think differently How can your card stand out from the pack of totally boring ones? Size of card, material that it’s printed on or does it have a scent?

2) Keep copy concise and compelling A business card is not intended to be a book. In most cases, your company name, your name, a graphic mark, your web site, email and phone is enough. Give them a reason to go to your website to learn more.

3) Use typefaces that are relevant to your brand Society is conditioned to associate type with many brand attributes. A typeface can communicate innovation, creativity or a blue leisure suit from 1980. Select the one that best articulates your brand.

4) Leverage the white space and the back of the card too. Sounds conflicting? Don’t fill every inch of the card with stuff. White space is good. This is the most cost effective way to communicate a quality and upscale image. Think of an old yellow pages add vs. a stark Neiman Marcus ad, I rest my case. Use the of back of the card too. Consider a simple image, a provocative question or your web address.

Investing in a memorable, on-brand business card is not an option. If you are a startup and you can only launch with two tools for your new business, make them a killer business card and a website. Then let your product or service carry the load until you can do more.

When folks learn what I do for work they often ask me the same thing, “What’s the best way to obtain new clients?”

That’s not an easy question to answer. There’s no one answer. Whole books have been penned on that topic. It’s dependant on the type of practice you have, where you’re located, where you’re trying to take your firm, and of course, your character. Each firm needs to craft a marketing scheme appropriate to the talents of it’s people but I’ll give you a short, generic, abstract to kick-start you.

There’s almost no immediate benefit to networking, but get started on it right out of the gates anyway.

Networking may be the life’s blood of any successful firm, but it’s a long term strategy. Take the time to cultivate prospects. At first the time will feel wasted. It will likely seem to be frustrating and senseless at the start, but as the years pass and quality prospects start contacting you you’ll be glad you did it. The most thoughtful, wisest business people rely on networking to find their accountants. Period.

In the meantime there are a lot of rank and file clients to be had, but there are also a lot of accountants competing for them. When you first get started these people will form the bulk of your client base. These clients are what used to be called “walk-ins”.

Ten years ago direct marketing was very effective, but times have changed. Direct marketing is pretty much useless these days. You could track down recent business licenses in your area and try to contact the owners by phone. For many years I made a a good living out of this strategy. It just doesn’t work any more, though. I don’t recommend it.

Get yourself some business cards (with web address and tag line) and network your butt off. Give them to everyone. And don’t forget the tag line. Every time you hand someone your card give them a reason to visit your site. Don’t be shy. Get cards. Just ask for them. Get phone numbers and email addresses. Once you have them, cultivate them. Sign them up for your newsletter. Send them an Email wishing them a happy thanksgiving.

In my admittedly biased opinion the internet is one of the best sources of clients. Get a good website and a monthly email newsletter. SEO, or Search Engine Optimization, is a lot of work and very slow and expensive, but it’s also an AWESOME prospect magnet. For the long term it’s worth investing in. For short term just buy ad space on Google using Google Adwords. Also, get your business on Google Maps and optimize your site for Google Places (Local search). This will probably also require some investment on your part, but local search is a let cheaper and easier to get a good ranking in than old-school SEO. Expect a one-time cost of about $500.

So how can websites help accountants network?

The basic strategy of networking is to identify a prospects need, then to offer a solution to fill that need. It’s all about demonstrating the benefit of your service to the prospect. As an accountant you’re in a unique position to offer solutions to problems that really matter to people. Perhaps they’re buying or selling a house. Maybe they’re saving for their children’s education, or retirement, or maybe they’re not certain if they should buy or lease an expensive piece of equipment for their business.

Don’t misunderstand the purpose of this kind of marketing. Prospects will almost never be so impressed with that value that they’ll fire their CPA and hire you right there on the spot. It won’t rack up billable hours for your firm. Networking is a long term marketing strategy. The goal of your networking efforts is to demonstrate your value to the prospect. You’re trying to put your brand in front of the prospect and keep it there so that in a year, or two, or five; when the prospect is ready to switch accountants; yours will be the first name they think of.

A well designed accountant’s website can significantly impact your networking power. Online financial calculators and a libraray of financial articles will bring visitors back to your website over and over. As we’ve already established, when networking your job is to figure out what that persons needs are and demonstrate your value by presenting a solution. Your website can help with that. Next time you hand a prospect your business card you can offer a solution that takes them to your website, complete with your brand at the top of the page and your phone number at the bottom.

Learn the art of the Tag Line. Nobody is going to call you or even visit your website unless you give them a compelling reason to.

These “walk-ins” will pretty much take care of themselves if you do a good job setting up your website. Just pop into your adwords account from time to time and make sure you’re not getting outbid by too many competitors.

It’s time to get busy networking again.

Learn to use online social networks too. LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook…

Then network your butt off. Everyone is a potential prospect. Parents, friends, vendors, everyone. Be careful not to judge prospects. That’s a trap. Nobody is too poor for a business card. In 5 or 6 years they may well be standing someplace very different.

Your business cards and print letterheads are the very tools that help you make a good impression for your identity. They are the first tools that will help you build lasting relationships with your clients who will keep you growing and successful in your business. With a little imagination and creativity, you can turn your regular business cards and letterhead printing into effective marketing tools that can keep the mill running no matter the economic environment.

Here’s how:

Identify and establish your identity. This is an essential process if you want to be known in your industry. You have to determine and identify what image you would want to be known by your target clients and customers. Use your graphics and copy in your business cards and print letterheads to show your prospects and clients who you are. As these customized stationery will go with your other marketing tools, keep them as clean and as consistent to your overall theme always.

Consider a “logoless logo”. One expert marketer suggests that if you don’t have the budget to design a custom logo for your business, try doing your logo the logolesss way. This can be done by combining two simple clip arts or graphic images to form one logo symbol. Just remember to choose images that identify well with the message you would want to put across your target readers. The wrong clip art can give a different meaning that might create a bad impression for your business.

Always feature the benefits. Taglines and slogans are standards in limited spaces such as that in your business card and letterhead printing. A simple statement that explains what you do and how your business can benefit your target clients can go a long way in keeping your marketing tools working hard even after the first contact is established.

Turn your marketing tools into a mini version of your brochure. Just include a headline and brief text on what you do exactly, in addition to your basic contact information. And you will already have a marketing tool that not only introduces you to your target clients, but also provides them with information to encourage them to take your offer.

Use your marketing tools to break down the stranger barrier. Of course, this is the first time that your target clients would ever hear of you. It’s not surprising that a barrier would be visible when you approach your target clients. Your business card and letterhead printing alone would not be enough to break down the barrier. A personal letter or telephone call can make it easy for your target clients to accept you by the time your marketing tool gets into their hands.

With these tips, you can have a smart marketing strategy that would help you provide a memorable identity for a very long time.

We are in an economic crunch right now and your car dealership may have been among the many small businesses affected by low profit margins. In this kind of situation, buying new cars (or even used one for that matter) may not be among the top priorities of many people. You need to think of marketing ideas to generate new leads and move your car units out of the showroom.

Business cards are just the right tools to get new leads for your business without the need to spend a lot. From most online printing companies, you can have 1000 copies of business cards printed for less than $25. With these many copies, you can get your business in the forefront of many people’s minds without the added costs. All you need to know now is how to use your business card prints to your business’ advantage.

Tips on How to Use Your Car Dealership Business Cards

Hand out your cards to every client or prospective client entering your showroom. Your new clients may know someone who really needs new car and will benefit from your business card. You should also bring copies of your business cards with you all the time. You never know when you might meet someone or even an old friend who could give you new business.

You can attach a copy of your business cards in every correspondence that you send. This is especially good for business to business correspondence. You know how companies need vehicles for their employees and business. In this case, it will be great to have them among your new leads.

Car shows and exhibits are great avenues to hand out your business cards. You can just be a visitor in these events but you can still exchange contacts with other visitors and exhibitors. Events like these also give you opportunities to meet many prospective clients ranging from individuals to corporate magnates. Just make sure that your cards are of great quality and have impressive designs because corporate executives are hard to convince when it comes to influencing their buying decisions.

Though you might have designed your business cards using the right elements and have printed them on high quality paper, you will still not get the maximum benefits if you only know one way to hand them out. You have to explore all the possible ways.

When it comes to marketing your business, business cards are one of the best things to have. Why is this? It’s simple; your prospects will have instant access to your information if they want to utilize your services. However, any old generic card will not suffice. You will need to make sure your business card stands out more than your competitor’s business cards.

How will a unique business card help you?

Look at it from a logical view. Let’s say your prospect has 5 business cards that involve companies that offer similar services to yours. If you have a unique business card design, yours will stand out and be the first one that catches their eye. People tend to get used to seeing generic business cards and will quickly skim over them. The longer your prospect looks at your card the more likely it is that they will choose your service. You want your business card to make a lasting impression, but make sure it is a good impression.

Business Card Pointers

Include A Tagline Or Slogan:
Taglines are a simple one sentence statement. You want it to be simple, relevant to your business, and catchy. Having a simple slogan will allow a person to remember it a lot easier. If you have a catering business having a tagline that says “food for less”, the prospect may be confused as to what you offer. Having a tagline that says “catering at a price you can afford” tells the prospect that you are a caterer. Catchy taglines are the best to use, much like commercial jingles, they leave a lasting impression.

Invest In Full Color Business Cards.
Full color business cards are becoming more affordable than ever before. They offer versatility to have a unique look and beat out plain two color business card. Again this goes back to having a card that stands out. You will have better luck with full color business cards.

No Templates:
You should never use a business card template under any circumstances if you want yours to stand out. Templates are limiting and will almost always come out plain and boring. Creating a business card should be done without the use of a template to ensure it will not blend with other business cards that get tossed.

Hire A Professional:
Nine times out of ten a business owner will not have design experience and will benefit greatly from hiring a professional designer. Designers tend to think outside the box which makes them better equipped to create a unique business card. They know the proper dimensions, bleeds, and the best uses of design elements.
No matter what type of business you have, business cards are one of the most vital marketing tools available. Remember that you want it to stand out above all the other cards your prospect will receive. Your best bet is to go with a professional designer and invest in your cards, as you will reap the benefits in the long run.

It’s a funny thing about business cards…they always seem to find their way into the trash! Now, some of you may be thinking, “WHAT?” but follow me for a second…

Let’s start with what happens at a networking event. People are milling about, shaking hands, handing out business cards, etc. You meet new people, establish possible referral relationships, tell others about what you do and above all, you collect business cards…sometimes LOTS of business cards. Now, let’s fast forward to the next day…

There you sit at your desk…a stack of business cards looms before you. You flip through the stack, then put it in your desk. “I’ll get to these later” you say, and you go about your day. A few days later, you open up your desk drawer and BAM…there are those cards again. “I have to make time to get back to these people…” you say, and again shut the drawer. After a few weeks, you don’t even care, and chances are, that stack of cards will make its way into your trash. Well, if this is what YOU are doing, you can imagine that the cards you give out will eventually have the same fate in the offices of folks you have given your cards to. It starts to seem like business cards are just a waste of time and money, but is there a way to change this outcome and make them incredibly valuable tools for business? Absolutely…

First of all, think of your business cards as merely a barter tool to get business cards from others. It is THEIR card that is really valuable to you. When you are at an event and you get a business card, it is what YOU do with THEIRS that matters…follow me on this…

When someone gives me their card, I hold it up at eye level to the side and look at it as I ask them questions. “So, tell me more about ABC company.” Looking at their card while I speak with them helps me to imprint their face along with their information at the same time. This will become extremely valuable as I am looking through the cards I received after the event.

Once our conversation is over, I thank them and tell them I will be following up. Then, I turn over their card and write a few key points of our conversation on the back. This will help me to refer to these points when we speak again.

Finally, after the event (aim for WITHIN 48 hours) I follow up. This could be a phone call, an email, a letter, whatever you decide. Because I have taken the time to imprint the person’s face with their business, and write key points about the conversation on the back of the card, AND follow up, I will make myself stand out from just about anyone else that will contact them after the event. The fact is, most won’t even bother so not only will my competition be light, my technique will ensure that I am the one that makes the most memorable impression on them.

There you have it. The information above can greatly increase the value of business cards and how they can positively impact your business. Remember, business cards are NOT a waste of time and money…you need yours to get theirs and getting theirs and following the tips above is what will set you apart from most of the other business people they come in contact with.

Photo by lilitThere are many things you can add to your mortgage business card to create a greater awareness and generate the very best available marketing mileage.

As you know, your business card could be an unusual shape, size, or color. It could be folded, printed on both sides, produced as a magnetic card or a see-through card. It could be a laminated card or even converted to a rolodex card. It could even be a miniature CD-Rom. Your choices are almost as endless as there are grains of sand.

There is one premise we’re working with here, and that is you can easily add a feature or features to your business card. If your company objects to some of these additions, it may be time to look for a new mortgage affiliation. If you print your cards in-house, you have the best of all worlds, and an ideal testing opportunity. With those thoughts in mind, here are a few additions to your mortgage business card that could improve your business:

1. Establish a unique selling position or niche market, generate an appropriate tag line, and then print it on your business card: “First Time Homeowner Specialist” or “Home of the Painless Mortgage” or…

2. Print a “one-step amortization schedule” on the back of the cards that you use to establish Realtor/Agent relationships.

3. Print a list of “Information Required at Application” on the back of your business card. This is a great idea and will serve you well with your mortgage customers.

4. Print a partial list of some of the loan programs that you originate on the back of your business card.

5. Have you been collecting customer testimonials? Print a portion of one of your testimonials on the back of your business card.

6. On the back of your card, list a single credit myth and then ask them to call you for a free report on the other myths. You can use this lead-in with any of the reports that you use in your marketing.

7. Pick a hot loan product and feature it on the back of your card. If the Option Arm is your specialty, in large letters, “Ask me about the 1.00% Start-rate Mortgage!”

8. If you have established affinity-marketing partners such as an insurance agent, accountant/CPA, financial planner, print their name on the back of your card. Request they do the same for you.

9. How about a two-sided duplicate card? If you’re bi-lingual and speak Spanish for example, print one side of your card in English and Spanish on the other side.

10. If you take mini-applications on-line and your web site is loaded with great information, place only your web site address in a large font on the back of your business card.

There you have it…you probably have ideas of your own…and, that’s great. Make your business card an integral part of your mortgage marketing plan.

Business cards are the first marketing item that many small businesses have trouble getting by without. Whenever you meet an individual who is interested in your business, it is essential to hand them a business card. Every customer served well should leave your company with a card. Every local establishment that will allow it should have your business card on its bulletin board. Very simply, a business card will do wonders for word of mouth advertising. While that alone is not enough to make your company flourish, it can keep you afloat while you settle in.

A good business card can be difficult to design, but there are a few basic tactics to help you decide which path to take. The first suggestion is to keep it simple. Too much text, and an excessive design can clutter your card and distract your consumer from the important information. Stick to the essentials when it comes to text, and keep visual flair simple. The second suggestion is to include something to make your card stand out. Whether it is an especially attractive logo, a slightly unconventional material, a creative, but still functional shape, or an excellent use of a unified color scheme, your card needs to stand out in some way. The third suggestion for business cards is not to settle for something cheap. While it is tempting to skimp a little here and there to save money, it is crucial to establish your company as a professional organization. Having a high quality business card is a great step towards accomplishing that goal.

A second important basic marketing item is a postcard. Postcards are great because they are simple, cheap and easy for potential customers to keep. Use postcards to announce your company’s grand opening, and have the postcard act as a coupon when brought in with the customer. You could also consider running a contest through the postcards. Whatever you do, make sure you have a direct benefit to your customer when it comes to the postcard. It needs to be more than just a business card. Make sure you give the person who receives the postcard in the mail a reason to keep it hanging up on the bulletin board, or on their refrigerator. Beyond that, keeping all basic company information on the card and taking advantage of how cheap they are to mail by sending one to everybody in your area will ensure that you will not have wasted your money.

Letterheads and brochures are two other important marketing devices for your start up business. Letterheads exude professionalism, and a good one will get the attention of consumers and make them think of you in a similar way to how they think of major companies in your field. Giving that sense of establishment to your new company will help your potential customers develop an essential trust with you. Gaining the trust of consumers is especially important for a start-up business to become successful. Brochures can help you develop that sense of trust and professionalism further. In many cases, customers will want to see tangible results of your services before they will trust you enough to give you their money. Having a brochure with sample products, testimonials and other similar items is a great way to give potential customers that sense of security that they need. A brochure can be one of your greatest tools to turn potential customers into satisfied customers.

Maintaining your budget as a start-up business can be one of the hardest tasks you will face. Balancing funds coming in with those going out can be daunting and can easily leave you tempted to cut spending to a minimum. While that can be a wise conclusion, there are certain elements of marketing that are undoubtedly must-haves, and should never be cut. Business cards help you reach new consumers, and establish your professionalism. Postcards can get your name out to the masses, while also giving people a direct reason to visit you on location. Letterheads and brochures give you the chance to establish a sense of trust with customers, furthering your professional reputation. These four elements of marketing are things that a young business can just not do without.

I’m always surprised when, during the “get to know you” part of a committee meeting, someone in the room announces they have “forgotten their cards.” Or when someone visits our booth at a trade show and is unable to leave a card because they don’t have any with them. In sales, forgetting your business cards is like forgetting your pants.

The most effective way I’ve found to remember people I’ve met is to retain their business cards. During our conversations, I often take quick notes on the back of the cards that I can refer to later, such as jotting down a reminder about something from our meeting, an action item I have agreed to or something they have committed to me.

Once back at my desk, I review the stack of cards. I write thank you notes, delegate action items, pass along leads and the myriad of follow up details that occur after a business trip. Without the cards, I’m left only with an attendee roster and pads of paper.

Your cards should include your name, phone number, fax number, e-mail and street addresses and company logo. This information should be produced in a color and font that are easy to read. I recently received a business card that had been printed with pale lavender five-point type in order to fit all of the information the proprietor wanted on the card. A lot of information was there, but I couldn’t read it-even with my bifocals on!

Make sure you proofread your business cards before they are printed. You may think that the instructions you gave the person at Kinko’s were clear, but did they set your information correctly? Here’s an easy trick to use when proofreading to ensure what is to be printed is correct: Read each line backwards, from left to right and from bottom to top. This will force you to look at each word and number, instead of only skimming the information that you are so familiar with.

Also, have your cards printed on a paper stock that someone can actually write on. If your cards are plastic or a dark color they will be less useful to those who receive them, especially if they, like you, take notes on cards. While business cards that look and feel like credit or gift cards may be a novelty, they will most likely be tossed rather than kept as useful reminders for further action.

Check your sales agreement for instructions regarding logo placement on your business cards. Card associations and many banks and vendors have specific rules regarding the use of their logos. Additionally, be sure to include any logos (that you are entitled to use) that might lend further credibility to your business, such as from a trade association, chamber of commerce or Better Business Bureau.

If you conduct business in languages in addition to English, you might consider having your contact information printed on the back of your business card in these other languages. Or, you might add a line to your business card such as, “Se habla espa_ol.”

Keep a supply of business cards in your wallet, briefcase, car, computer bag and desk, and invest in a simple business cardholder to protect the cards and keep them looking crisp and clean.

Most importantly, give your business cards away.

Many sales managers monitor their sales staffs’ activities based on the number of business cards each rep collects during the day. You can easily rate the effectiveness of your daily routine by counting the cards your collect. You’ll have a better idea of how many leads you’re generating if you give a card each time you receive one.

Your business cards are one of the most productive pieces of collateral you will generate. Consider them the seeds of your business, and scatter them widely.

Guerilla Marketing – Practical Tactics For Small Business Marketing and Advertising.

Constantly exploring new ways to market and advertise should be the main focus of your small business/product or service after initial setup is complete. The marketing world we live in gets more competitive everyday and unless you have 3 million to spend on a 30 second commercial, your business is dead in the water PERIOD. Guerrilla Marketing can be explained as a practical means by which to market one’s business, product or service by unconventional, yet highly effective tactics. It’s a system of promotions that rely heavily on time, energy, and creativity rather than an extensive marketing budget. Usually, guerrilla marketing tactics are best executed in numbers. Meaning targeting consumers in the most unexpected locations and circumstances and dishing out promotional material in heavy numbers. Or more frankly…Doing what others won’t.

The main objective in this model is to get your business, product or service in front of as many potential customers as possible while kind of creating a positive disruption. Here is an example:

In the U.S, at most wholesale computer stores, one can find a spool of 50 cds for $7.99 (talk about cheap!). Pick up about 6-12 spools, record and interview on your computer about the crux of what it is that you or your company does, and provide superior content rather than fluff.. If you don’t have a cd burner find friends that do. The more people you know with cd burners – the better. You will be burning a lot of cds so if you can mass produce in a room with more than one computer, this is the way to go.

Label these cds with small labels or a permanent marker with “How to create free money” (so people don’t judge it) and go your local train, or commuter parking center, and pass them out during rush hour! Just hold them up high and say “FREE CD HERE.”

They key is to go where there will be–undoubtedly–a large volume of people in one place at a given time – more specifically: Rush Hour.

If you have the audacity to pass this material out in numbers, and you have a good offer, there is no doubt that you WILL get a response and you WILL convert new prospects into sales. Just make sure there is appropriate contact information on your material with specific instructions on how to contact your business.

In the past, most marketing budgets focused heavily on television, radio commercials, print, or billboard advertisements; However, we now live in a world where people can pick their content have a diminishing attention span. Guerrilla Marketing tactics need to be implemented to get attention in this world of mass media. Here are some more examples of guerrilla marketing tactics that are useful to any small business looking to gain massive attention fast.

1. Secret Spy-like Business Card Placement: First, look up the most DIFFERENT business cards out there that are eye-catching (Start with the $100 business card idea). Next, it important to note that people always love browsing through magazines so stick that business card in those magazines that are related to your customer base. Plant your business card in unique locations where people are seated for long periods of time such as the Metro, bus windows, restaurant menus, or park benches.

2. Guerilla Marketing Online: Join as many social networking sites as you can and get your info in front of millions of people fast. Sites such as Linkedin, Facebook, and Twitter are good places to start. Social forums on these sites can serve as a double hit, so make sure you post on them as well. Also, make Guerilla-Style videos with a small video camera and post them on sites like YouTube, Clisper, DailyMotion, MegaVideo etc. Note that big search engines like Google and Yahoo love it when you post video content consistently. Yes they do watch your videos, so make sure it’s a unique offer that isn’t one big pitch fest. It must be different and it must be unique.

3. Tissue Pack Marketing: Small, plastic tissue packets with your logo or product on them is a great way to have people take and, more importantly, hold on to your business so that everytime people reach for a tissue, they are constantly reminded of your business, product or service. This also serves well when people give a tissue to someone else. Your name will reach out further and further.

The sky is the limit when it comes to the unconventional tactics of guerrilla marketing and every idea is worth looking into. People love it when a business steps outside the box and introduces a little creativity while pitching their product. It creates buzz and people are no longer timid. In the fast place world we live in, where people no longer have the time to absorb new things, you have to stand out and you have to be different. Guerrilla marketing is your answer to this. Eat it, breathe it and sleep it. Master these techniques and watch your business grow to the next level.
