How quickly can you grow your business?
How about in 4 minutes?
Here are 3 ways to do it…
1. Send an email out to your clients offering a 24-hour deal.
What product do you sell that you can offer a very short rebate on?
You could position this 24-hour discount to your clients as a reward for their loyalty.
The great thing about this technique is you can’t lose- some people will buy it, but even the ones who don’t will be reminded of you, your company and the good things you offer.
2. Spend 4 minutes coming up with a more expensive option for what you already sell.
Usually, around 20% of people will buy a more expensive version of what you already sell.
What could you add to your product offerings to justify a higher price?
Come up with a few ideas in 4 minutes and start testing them with potential customers.
3. Contact the media about what you are selling.
Could you think of a story about your company that the local newspaper would run?
What about an angle that your industry trade press or industry websites would be interested in?
The more people see articles about you and your services, the more likely it is someone will contact you to buy what you offer.
Try spending 4 minutes brainstorming media angles, then start emailing some journalists.
As the legendary Koren entrepreneur Kim Woo-Choong said, “Every street is paved with gold.”
There are so many ways to build your business- stay open-minded and try at least one of these this week.
It’s amazing what you could achieve in 4 minutes.
