Raucher accepted a position developing marketing and sales campaigns for
startup freight company Skynet Worldwide Express. Because startup companies often
do not have the budget of large businesses, they must develop creative
strategies for promoting themselves. The following tips offer startup companies
several ideas for marketing in a business’ early stages.
1. Determine a specific audience: Define the
particular demographic that would be interested in your product or service.
This will not only narrow a seemingly unlimited pool of marketing options but
also decrease the likelihood that you will alienate customers by appealing to
too broad of an audience.
2. Use social media to your advantage: Modern
startups can benefit from familiarity with popular social media platforms such
as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. Maintaining a web presence shows potential
clients that you are established and offers them an opportunity to engage with
you while learning more about your product.
3. Never miss an opportunity: Take advantage of
unexpected chances to market your business. Keep business cards with you at all
times and be confident in communicating the value of your product or service,
even when caught off-guard.
