Synopsis: With the likleyhood of a global recession extremly high many small business owners fear that they may not survive. Many smart business owners however are looking at developing and implementing more effective marketing systems. The most effective marketing system for Small Business, Home Based Business and Entrepreneurs is Attraction Marketing.

Melbourne, Australia (PRWEB) August 2nd, 2008 - With the likelyhood a global recession hitting now extremely high many small business owners fear for their survival. Increasing cost of living mixed with declining consumer confidence spells trouble for small business owners many of whom have only know good economic times over the last 10 years or so.

So what is the key to not only surviving but thriving during a recession for small business owners?

Attraction Marketing expert Rod Moore of Profit Minute believes that now more than ever small business must focus on developing and implementing effective marketing systems. Most small business owners have on clue about marketing or how to attract clients. During prosperous economic times that is okay, however during recession effective marketing is critical Moore says.

The problem for small business owners is that they are typically very good at what it is they do in their business, but they lack the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively market what it is they do. The end result is that they are set to struggle during tougher economic times.

When asked what the solution is Rod Moore suggests that now is the time to be thinking about, developing and implementing the right marketing systems rather than wait until we are in the depths of recession when cash flow has dried up.

Moore says that the most effective marketing system he has come across is what he calls ATTRACTION MARKETING. This is a combination of Direct Response Marketing with an understaning of the psychology of what motivates your customers to buy. In effect it is about making your business more attractive than your competitors.

With attraction marketing you can literally attract a steady stream of new clients to your business already pre-sold on wanting to do business with you. This type of approach to marketing (which is very different from more traditional types of advertising and marketing) can be extremly powerful.

Those small business owners who embrace attraction markeing today will stand a much better chance of prospering during recession than their competitors will Moore said in a statement today.

Attraction Marketing is the most powerful way for small business to find new clients today as it is in tune with shifting consumer attitudes and the way in which people do business today. Outdated traditional forms of advertising and marketing simply get lost in the clutter and do little to create new clients.

If you are in small business, home based business or are an entrepreneur today then you would be wise to investigate how attraction marketing can greatly impact on your ability to find and attract new clients to you.

SOLD!!!!

That’s right … your clients (and prospective clients) hate to be sold. They don’t like to be interrupted by telemarketers at home in the evening, they record TV onto their digital drives and skip the ads when they watch it when it suits them, they are guarded and skeptical of anything you have to say about your products or service (no matter how good they are) and they haven’t got time to review your website, marketing collateral or follow up emails.

They hate to be sold …. BUT … and this is interesting … they still LOVE to BUY!

Think about it … aren’t you like this?

If someone is trying to sell you something and you don’t really need or want it what is your natural reaction? Most of us want to turn and run, right? We hear the voice of our parents from when we are young telling us not to sign anything etc etc.

Contrast this when you have a need or desire for something.

If you have a particular need for some service in your business then what do you do today?

Yes … you probably Google it.

You do some research … you click and flick. That is where you click on the web sites that come up in your search and make a 30 second assessment if you believe that site has what you are looking for and then you give it the flick if it does not.

When you come across that one site that appears to have the right solution to your needs you maybe make contact or research some more.

The point is … today when we have a need or desire we research for a specific solution and are happy to make contact when we believe we find it … and are more than happy to make a positive purchasing decision ie we love to buy.

So how does this apply to your business?

Well if you are still using interruption marketing today and trying to sell your products or services to people who don’t want them then … well good luck for the future! The web is changing everything.

The key to marketing your business in the future is to position yourself as an expert service provider in a specialised niche and gain visibility within that niche.

When your prospective clients go searching for your solution you need to show up.

When they land on your web site you have 30 seconds … the strategy behind your web site will determine if you have any chance of building a relationship in those 30 seconds or not.

You will need to ensure your total marketing strategy facilitates the purchasing process that they buyer wants to follow.

Your marketing strategy needs to make it easy for your prospective clients to say yes to you.
