Hopefully a lot of us will have some form of marketing plan and business objectives for the year ahead.

Here were our targets from last January, and results

  • Increase revenue.
  • Sign up 5 new partners.
  • Continue to Grow Social Media Exposure.

Twitter Followers:  3,702 

Facebook Business Page: 2,652

Google+ Business Page: 145

Results

We managed to grow revenue slightly.

Signed up 2 new partners, so fell short on that.

But Social Media is growing slowly but surely.

Twitter Followers:  4,142

Facebook Business Page: 3,355

Google+ Business Page: 270 (still struggling!)

 

Plan for 2016:

  • Increase revenue.
  • Sign up 2 new partners.
  • Continue to Grow Social Media Exposure, focusing more on interaction.
  • Follow marketing plan more strictly and stay on-piste!
  • Take on new staff member.

Did you set yourself any targets for last year, and if so how did it go?

If you don't want to review it publicly, then sit down and analyse your results and revise it for this year.

Remember the cliché, keep doing the same old thing and you will get the same old results.

First 6 months was good, last 6 months a complete nightmare and to be honest felt like like throwing in the towel. To be honest my enthusiasm for the business has all but gone, not so much the hands on work, but being bogged down with the paperwork side of things I just hate it... Have a few debtors that combined owe a substantial amount and it's getting embarrassing to continuously ask for payment, though I'm going to have to do it yet again later today. I have three legal cases going on at present, other than that things are good

Will probably get new website done this year and definitely get a new van... Not sure what the heck G+ is about although it has had nearly 31,000 views it only has 9 followers...says a lot I guess

Facebook again I cannot fathom out, anything business related I post gets a cursory visit, yet if I share a video of a fox I'll get several hundred visits... But to be fair, when looking at the heating industry main players none of them have much going on as far as views are concerned, but it's not as though people are interested every day of the week about the heating trade as mostly these are one off purchases.......


Thanks,
Barney
