Baby Talk - February 2012 - The first word in advertising and PR from Design At Work.
Baby, I Need Your Lovin'.

Know that great feeling you get when you receive a thank you card or funny note from someone? 

Do you want customers to feel this way toward your business? While courting clients may seem old fashioned, showing them the love they deserve may lead to increased sales for your baby. It also creates an engaged client base who understands you're dedicated. 

Sounds simple, right? It is, but you have to stay on your game. It's important to constantly stay in touch with your clients. Email blasts are a great inexpensive way to keep in contact with them and drive up site traffic. If your client or customer is close enough to visit, try taking them out to lunch or stop by and say hello. 
Don't get dumped because you forgot to tell them how important they are to you. Keep in touch and remind them you haven't lost that lovin' feelin' for their business.  

Ten ways to court your clients today. 
- Free Product Samples
- Thank You Cards
- eNewsletter
- Personal Phone Calls
- Follow Up on Services
- Invite Them to Your Office
- Attend Their Events
- Surveys
- Small Gifts of Appreciation Around the Holidays
- Customer Reward or Incentive Programs
Baby Genius:

We've said it before, and we'll say it again — we have the formula for your success. Here's an example of how we helped a baby go from crawling to running in no time.  

Texcel, a client who supplies industrial hose, sheet rubber, skirtboard products and fittings, launched their new campaign 'Ahead of the Curve' at their sales meeting in December. The new campaign and tagline highlights both the characteristics of their products and Texcel's commitment to innovation and forward-thinking. The brand was presented to attendees through various collateral, from branded giveaways to new staff t-shirts. The event successfully generated tons of enthusiasm from Texcel's biggest brand advocates, their sales team. To spread the word, DAW created a wall calendar for their clients' holiday present and went live with the updated website.
