A Huge Marketing Calendar Suggestion
By Travis Lee
Monday, September 21, 2009

I told you this would probably be the shortest tip I’ve ever written, but it’s probably the most important thing you can get out of this segment on marketing calendars.  It’s an advanced idea for REAL implementers.  You ready?

Post your marketing calendar where people you work with can see your initiatives to let them know what to expect and…  HOLD YOU ACCOUNTABLE TO GET THEM DONE!

Marketing Tip Readers Only Special

My friend and very successful marketer Troy White has created a great resource where he’s created th emarketing calendar FOR YOU!

The Cash Flow Calendar contains completed marketing campaigns that guarantee to grow your business. 

You will learn how to capitalize on the thousands of opportunities you have at your disposal to write new product or service launch.  How to transfer an unusual holiday, even the standard ones, with a few minor changes, and one simple addition, to create monster successes with each mailer you send out to your clients.

For each MONTH of the year, you will receive countless opportunities and ideas to run month-long promotions - or one major product launch tied into a monthly event (for example, did you know that April is National Customer Appreciation Month?  Perfect time for a mailer and promotion.  Or that April also is the month of National Couple Appreciation Month?  How easily could you tie in that to a promotion applicable to couples?  Troy shows you how.

There’s a ton of done-for-you marketing in this resource.  Visit Troy's site here to see it all for yourself.

If you purchase the 2009 version you’ll also the 2010 version for free. You’ll get the ’09 version shipped immediately, then the ’10 version when it is ready in about a month. It will have more dates, more templates, and more copy and paste letters. See details here.

A 25% Response Rate? It' True!



I catch some flack every now and again that all I show are consumer examples in this newsletter.  Frankly, that’s just not true.  A lot of examples come from my own businesses, all of which are B2B.  Given that this month’s new item is in the B2C world, I thought I’d throw you B2B’ers this one.
