With everyone caught up in the brilliance of the digital age and the glamorous social media world, we often forget about print and its long history in marketing. During our digital affair, print has steadfastly stood in the background, and now it is making a solid comeback as a cost-effective, tangible marketing medium.
When it comes to reaching customers and delivering your message, the decision is no longer whether to use direct mail or e-mail or print ads or radio – the decision now is how much of your resources will you allocate to each and how they can work hand-in-hand. Whether your customer prefers to hear from you in the form of a catalog, an e-mail, on Facebook, or all of the above, you will grow the relationship and gain business revenue by touching them with all of these methods. It’s just a matter of finding the right ratio.
Be a Mix Master
Are you in a groove? Creative juices flowing, ideas rolling right along? Great! But is that groove becoming a rut? As a freelancer, you have to keep the creativity alive and make sure your projects don’t become predictable, stale, or boring. When that happens, the ruts just get bigger until you end up in a deeper trench that is even harder to overcome.
