Helping childcare business owners build successful, sustainable businesses through practical strategies, real-life experience, leadership, faith, and encouragement.

 

How often do you place flyers, brochures or Business cards in near by businesses or Schools?

In fact, do you ever consider going outside of your neighborhood to market your Child Care Business?

I was recently was traveling about an hour away from my home and I noticed a bulletin board of a Local Casino that was approximately 1.5 hours away from where the bulletin board was displayed.

Then I thought, Wow!! That’s a great way to attract more business into downtown St. Louis.  Furthermore, I realized that this is  how big companies attract so much business from surrounding communities. I call this strategy: Expanding Your Marketing.

My goal today is to inspire you to start Marketing your Child Care Business in neighborhoods that are outside of your normal marketing range.

You never know…… your may attract more clients that work near your facility, but live in communities that are outside of your area.

Give it a try. Drive down the highway near your home or business and pay attention to the bulletin board ads. Are the businesses nearby or far away?

I also want to challenge you to drive at least 30 minutes from your facility and place brochures or flyers in those communities. Then track the results, by asking callers how they heard about your business when they call you.

It’s time to Expand your Marketing!! I want to hear from you. Leave your comments below!

The Stuck Bird

“Its time to get unstuck, get productive

and build the business of your dreams.”

 I recently noticed a bird on the ground in front of my child care facility and he was flapping his wings but he wasn’t able to fly away.

Then I noticed that there was a ribbon attached to the bird’s leg, which was connected to a sign in my yard . So I grabbed a pair of scissors, I cut the ribbon and the bird begin to fly away.

I was instantly reminded that this is what happens to many business owners. In fact,  just as we are moving along on our Business Journey, something stops us and we find our selves stuck in a situation, until someone comes along and helps us to get unstuck.
