Did you know you can immediately expand your home based business without hiring an online marketing team even if you are a one women (or man) shop? No it doesn’t matter if you are a solo entrepreneur or any other type of small business owner these three tips can immediately transform the perception (online and offline) of your business and expand it too. Best of all I’m sure you already have what you need and probably use it daily.
What is it?
You may find this hard to believe but its email.
Yes, email and the way you have chosen to use it to help you run your business and online marketing.
While a single email address meets the basic needs of some home based business owners, most could benefit tremendously from setting up multiple email addresses or mailboxes. If your business consists of multiple services or departments, each can have a separate email address for daily business communications as well as online marketing.
I know what you’re saying, “I already get way to much email”, right?
Hold on…what I am leading up to allows you not only to expand the perception of your business but organize your email for quicker response to higher priorities without sifting through large quantities of email.
Use these three tips to immediately transform and expand your home based business and online marketing efforts:
Tip 1: Stop using free email services to run your business
Don’t bother using services like yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc. even though they may not cost anything you may be paying with less business credibility and lost marketing opportunities. Show potential customers you are serious about your business by investing in your own domain. Having a business domain adds credibility and as an added bonus with each email you send you are promoting your brand and not a free service.
Tip 2: Set up multiple business specific email addresses
Create multiple email accounts for example you@yourbusiness.com, sales@yourbusiness.com, info@yourbusiness.com, service@yourbusiness.com, support@yourbusiness.com and media@yourbusiness.com. Your potential clients and customers will not just see you they will also see the perception of a team. In addition using multiple emails can increase productivity because you will know where to focus your time daily when reading and responding to email.
Tip 3: Create instant response messages
Manage expectations with instant response messages (also known as autoresponders) you create in advance. Each response will get automatically delivered upon receipt of an email. This adds immediate follow up to visitors requesting standard information from you via email. As an added bonus, using this tip will save you hours of time each week responding to individual request.
