4 Effective Ways to Market Your Business In the Streets

Posted on April 27, 2020April 27, 2020 by Larry

There are many ways to market your business, and they all have their merits. It does seem, however, that in recent times, many businesses are becoming a little too focused on their digital marketing campaigns. While it is, of course, important to have a strategic online campaign for your business, it’s not as if your online world should receive all of the attention. Some time, effort, and money should go into marketing your business in “the real world,” too. In this blog, we’ll take a look at a few effective ways that you can incorporate into your campaigns.

Make the Most Of Your Space

Before you begin looking at other areas, it’s recommended that you take a look at the space that you have, and make sure that it helps to push your business forward. For example, take a look at the space outside of your premises: what can you add there that’ll get people’s interest? If you had a store, then this will involve putting an attractive window display for people to see as they walk past. The space immediately outside of your site could be used, too, for example, by putting a sign offering your services/any offers that you’re running.

Driving Around

You’ll likely spend a lot of time driving around, both while you’re working (to and from your work premises/picking up items/going to meetings and so on) and also in your personal life. So why not use the time you’re spending in your vehicle as an opportunity to market your business? Adding a vehicle wrap that promotes your business is an excellent way to publicize your business to the people that live in your community; check out the vehicle wrap pricing guide to see how affordable it can be. If you’re going to be driving for work anyway, you may as well showcase your business at the same time. 

Meeting People

You’re going to come across plenty of people in your life. So why not use these meetings as a chance to promote your business? The greater the number of people that know about your company, the more business you’ll have — it’s that simple. Now, it’s not as if you should walk into every interaction as if you’re walking into a meeting. But if the opportunity comes up to talk about what you do, then take it. Plus, you never know what opportunities can arise from talking to people — you might just meet someone who you can partner with.

Pop Up Stands

People will always be curious when they see a pop-up stand in public. If you have a business that lends itself well to free samples and other exhibitions, then take a look at spending a day on the streets. It’ll be best to set up in an area that’s populated by people in your target demographic. You’ll have a chance to explain everything about your business face-to-face, which can be much more powerful than other mediums. And also, these types of campaigns can be fun, too!

About Us

My good friend Ben started this site many years ago.  Ben said this about himself, “am a follower of Christ, a rabid computer geek, small business owner, and breaker of things. He is married way above his station in life and has three wonderful children who have made driving him insane their mission in life.”

Well back in 2019, Ben suddenly passed away from cancer and he asked me to continue the site. I like Ben, am a follower, a computer geek, a small business owner, and the father of 5 great children.

I miss Ben everyday but run this site in his honor. Thanks for visiting and enjoy!
