By Chad Nixom


It's easy to "go through the motions" once you get comfortable running a marketing consulting business. It's even easier to think that if you just keep doing what you're doing, everything will stay the way it is. Regrettably, that's wishful thinking. Break out of your routine and start reading up on some of the advice here and start planning today!

Every successful marketing consulting business knows that when it comes to employees, it's best to "hire slow, fire fast." In other words, take as much time as you need when searching for new employees to make sure they'll be a good fit for your business. However, if you have lackluster employees, fire them fast because it makes no sense to lose money on unproductive workers.

While it's a nice idea to create a marketing consulting business schedule, never let it get in the way of your decision-making process. Many business owners stick to their business plan too much and lack flexibility. The truth is, without flexibility, success will be hard to find.

Financial audit of a marketing consulting business is extremely essential. This not just indicates the progress of a business but also helps to indicate the fraud. So, timely audit plays an important role in the success of a business.

Having sales leaflets or letters ready is always useful. You have the potential of reaching consumers who may otherwise seem reluctant to buy from you. This can easily reach customers who are simply picking up their mail!

When you hire your workforce, keep one important thing in mind, always hire a diverse workforce. Diverse workforce can help a lot in giving a global access to your marketing consulting business thus making it easy for you to work with all the cultures in different parts of the world.

Start an industry interest group on Meetup website, and hold meetings at your office. Make the meetings free and offer refreshments to encourage a comfortable environment. Each week have an informal talk or interesting demonstration about developments in your domain.

Foursquare is a great social app for increasing your marketing consulting business. Be sure your business is listed in the directory and wait for people to check in! Listing your business is very simple and intuitive. Only follow the directions Foursquare gives you for 'adding a place'. This is a good free way to gain brand exposure.

Mouse pads may be a little obsolete because of the increase in laptops, but that does not mean that lots of people still don't use a mouse. Create a unique looking mouse pad to sell or giveaway to your buyers. People are starting to become more creative in their daily life, thus make sure to make it creative and different, rather than a boring plain black pad with your marketing consulting business name.
