			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well that time of the year is here once again, the <strong>holiday shopping season</strong>.  No matter what the predictions are for this year&#8217;s economic impact on sales, there are a few things you can do to help <strong>drive business</strong> and <strong>make some money</strong>.  While many are speculating on how things might be, now is the time for you to put your own ideas into action.  The longer you wait the less money you will earn.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Start your promotions early</span></strong>!</span> There&#8217;s nothing better than getting a little bit ahead of your competition.  More and more people are eager to get things done as quick as possible.  So you as a marketing professional must find some creative ways to have your marketing campaign stand out among the rest.</p>
<p>Though it&#8217;s good to inform everyone about your sales, use a little bit of caution.  Be sure that you <strong>don&#8217;t spam</strong> your customers through email.  Sending informative reminders are very effective, but sending similar emails filled with the same promotions will easily annoy your readers.  If you are trying to hard too make a sale, potential customers will sense your aggressiveness and <em>might</em> just look elsewhere.</p>
<p>Remember to <strong>market to your existing customers</strong>, not only new ones.  Yes it&#8217;s important to attract new buyers, but don&#8217;t forget the ones you already have.  While you are coming up with new and creative ways to promote to new customers, run some promotions for our current customers.  Customers that have already bought from you will appreciate the fact that you have included them in new promotions.</p>
<p>And one thing you most certainly don&#8217;t want to forget&#8230;<strong><span style="color: #339966;">spread</span> <span style="color: #ff0000;">a</span> <span style="color: #339966;">little</span> <span style="color: #ff0000;">holiday</span> <span style="color: #339966;">cheer</span>!</strong> It&#8217;s important that you as a seller get into the holiday spirit while promoting your business to customers.</p>
<p>A very <span style="text-decoration: underline;">safe</span> and <strong>Happy Thanksgiving</strong> to you all, and much continued success with your holiday marketing campaigns.</p>
