Bricks & Clicks
by Geoff Caplan
Business owners sometimes have a tendency to think too much "out of the box" when it comes to
business success on the Web. The prevailing thinking is often that planning and strategizing
for an online business presence requires an entirely different set of rules.
If you have already established a successful, growing conventional business, often referred to
in Internet terms as "bricks and mortar," there is no reason why you shouldn't immediately
integrate your conventional marketing approach closely with your online strategy.
Promote that URL
It's a simple truism: if you're already advertising your "bricks and mortar" business,
immediately start the references to your website's URL (address). Everytime you think of
where and how you use your telephone and fax numbers, use the URL and email address. This way,
your customers and prospects will have an increasing awareness of your web site. Make sure the
URL and email address are printed on all company letterhead and business cards. If you already
advertise, it's essential to include this information in all forms of advertising. Repeated
references to the web site will eventually take hold and contribute to web site traffic.
Promotion Transference
Think about ways to adapt your offline marketing strategies to your online presence. Do you
publish a "hard copy" newsletter? It's relatively easy to place it online. Another advantage
is the ability to quickly update the content without incurring printing and postage costs. A
further benefit will be that customers and prospects will be motivated to visit the site more
frequently to see what is new and different.
Every plan of action that is enacted to marketing your "bricks and mortar" business should
also include an online strategy that is logical, integrates well and is suitable for your type
of product or service.

Note: This website is created with the aim of providing a place for
Marketing personnels, executives, students, entrepreneurs, CEOs, COOs, COEs, and
business owners to communicate, share and learn from each other,
marketing techniques and strategies, business ideas and opportunities.
Instead of the traditional "negative competitive mindset", we can all benefit more
from a new WINWIN paradigm we call "positive collaboration mindset".
Instead of competing with each other blindly, and wasting much precious resources,
we can instead work together to produce
better products and services that satisfy the increasing expectations and needs of our
customers. In the new millenium, only companies that come together to work together will
eventually survive and make profits.
Apart from business ideas and strategies, this website will under permissible circumstances,
offer reports and articles that help enhance our life. It is often said that we can change our
life for the better while at the same time build a better world, if we put to practice our new
mindset and make an effort to help others as well, while we are working towards our dreams.
Through positive discussions and exchange of ideas, we can all inspire each other to great
heights. The most important thing is that, we believe that we can all help each other in life
and to achieve our dreams. Yes, we can all make this world a better place :)
