3 Ways to Promote Your Products and Services

Here are some simple ways to promote your products and services in 2009 courtesy of Salesrep Radio (check out their excellent podcast here):

1. You talk about your product/services – face to face networking like BNI
2. You write about your product/services – start a blog
3. Other people talk about your product/services – testimonials

Testimonials – use them to fulfill this third type of marketing

• Holidays – we just came through the rounds of cards so send a note anytime you can add some value to your clients’ lives.
• Use social opportunities to build relationships – there really is something to those extra football tickets after all
• ASK for the testimonial using these questions:
  • Why was it a good experience?
  • Describe the experience with your salesperson
  • Describe your experience with the product/service
• Use an online assessment tool – like SurveyMonkey
• Methods:
  • Written – develop a scrapbook, use your website (think of Amazon user reviews)
  • Audio – carry a voice recorder or turn your phone into one
  • Video – next wave – by seeing that client, prospects can see the sincerity of the message.  Check out the Flip MinoHD
