Promoting your Business

It's time to start promoting the business you are growing! Here are some proven ways to do just that...

*Get out in YOUR town- They don't know you are there if you don't let them know. Talk to everyone. The more people you talk to the more your business will grow. Don't be shy about talking to the clerk at the grocery store, ladies you run in to while running errands, or even the gals you go to church gatherings, book clubs etc with.

*WEAR YOUR PAPARAZZI! You are your very own billboard. PLUS, It's FREE advertising! When you wear your jewelry it can also make for a great conversation starter. When someone you see out and about compliments you on a piece you are wearing, you are able to tell them "Oh! THANKS! It's Paparazzi, and lucky for you I sell it. It's only $5, would you be interested in it?"

*Create a Facebook Business Page- Let social media help you with your business. It's a great way to stay in touch with customers, as well as help you 'meet' people you may not have otherwise. Ask your friends and family to share your page and slowly but surely you will start to gain followers that you don't know otherwise. All of which can help you business GROW! **When your page hits 25 likes you are able to secure a URL for your Facebook Page. Do this right away and get it put on your business cards.

Why a Group-

*Be Your Best YOU! Attitude and Appearance is EVERYTHING and Key! What they say about first impressions is very true. When you are talking to the people you meet, remember that these people are inviting you into their own lives (and depending on the type of party they choose-their homes). Presenting yourself with class, honesty, and integrity are essential in keeping your business moving forward.

*Car Signs or Magnets-Let your car be a moving billboard for you (It's also a tax write off). Your kit will include a small window decal that you can display in your vehicle. You can also consider having one custom made. One resource that many of the Paparazzi gals use is Vistaprint.com OR www.facebook.com/decaldazzlebycarol. Decide which is best for you and GO FOR IT!

*ALWAYS Have Your Business Cards-You need something tangible that you can give people, so they know how to get in touch with you. Your business cards are the tool to help with this! Try setting goals to give out a set number of cards each day. You can give them to waitresses, bank tellers, gas station attendants, clerks...anyone and everyone you meet on your daily travels! **Don't have any business cards?
