Marketing Budget: What to do in '09?
|
Crank it up.From my favorite law firm marketing blogger, Tom Kane.(Marketing is marketing. It doesn't matter if it's law firm marketing or healthcare marketing or accounting firm marketing.) "Yep! While a number of large law firms are cutting lawyers and staff,
it is no secret that budgets, including marketing budgets, are being
trimmed for the coming year. Unfortunately that is shortsighted. In
fact, it may reduce the amount of new business harvested in the coming
year. If business development is good for law firms in good times, spending
dollars on marketing in a down economy makes even better sense. Why?
Because while others are cutting back, (cutting back? how bout going out of business??) there will be less marketing 'noise' out in the marketplace and more chances to be noticed."READ MOREHe's right. So, make A LOT of marketing noise!Do you really want everyone thinking you're just another casualty of the economy? If they don't hear from/about you, how do they know you're still around??? Like the speaker? Ferguson Hill Loudspeakers.

Seven Tips to Move Your Print Newsletter to Email
|
From Network for Good (a non-profit fundraising guide)
This is assuming that you want to. Which you should. Tell me -
- What kind of stats/analytics are available for your print newsletter?
- How much does all that postage cost you?
1. Don't try the short-cuts!Sending a PDF of your print
newsletter out as an attachment to an email list is NOT an email
newsletter. Neither is sending a one-line email that says "Click here
to read our newsletter on our website." If you are going to use email
to communicate regularly with your supporters, create a real
e-newsletter, with real content in the email itself.2. Dissect your old print newsletter.Not everything that you included in your print newsletter will be right
for your email newsletter. For example, if you had a large calendar of
events in print, it's best to highlight only a few events in an email
newsletter with links to a full calendar on your website. Think about
what belongs where online - not everything will work in an email.
The rest of the tips. |
