If you find writing to be a chore, perhaps a regular ezine is notrepparttar 149249 best choice for you. If you only need a few large, local clients each year, you may want a web site for prospects to explore after you contact them, but not spend your money on web directory listings or search engine optimization. Autoresponder reminders may be effective to increase enrollment in public workshops, but not such a good idea to sell in-house training to corporations.

Relying completely on technology to bring in clients can also give you a false sense of productivity.

The purpose of your marketing should be to bring you enough clients to earnrepparttar 149254 level of profit you desire. When marketing technology adds to your bottom line, it's worth employing. When it doesn't, there's no reason to use it.
