My Marketing Plan Templates for Small Business, available at my Etsy store, are a game changer! Why?
Because they are already done for you! That’s right, no thinking, no planning, just implementing. You could even hand them off to a marketing student or intern to do for you, they’re that easy.
My Marketing Plan Templates for Small Business
All of my plans are specific to a type of business, no generic fluff here. And they are all 12 month plans.
For example, let’s say you own a restaurant. My Marketing Plan for Restaurants gives you an individual plan for each month of the year, with easy to follow but detailed tactics for Advertising, Publicity, Social Media, Promotions, Content Marketing, Email Marketing, SEO, and more.
Here’s just a snippet (not the entire plan) from the Restaurant Marketing Plan for January, so you can see what I mean:
- Email a story pitch to Eater to be included in their “cities” features, such as“Popular Eateries to Check out in {Your City} ”.
- Post a photo of a busy night at the restaurant for #ManicMonday.
- Post a This or That question poll i.e. Bottle of Wine or Carafe of House Wine?
- Email a newsletter to your customers with your winter theme menu as well as any early bird Valentine’s day offers or Superbowl party specials.
- Write a short article on “The Best Places to Visit When in {Your City}” and include your restaurant and submit it to BUZZFEED,
- Add your restaurant to the app Seated.
- Create a special vegan menu for “Veganuary” (this is a new tradition where people go vegan for the month of January).
A Plan for Every Type of Small Business
That’s right, I have created a specific plan for 28 different types of small business and I am constantly adding new ones.
From beauty salons and real estate to travel agents and online art stores, I make it super easy to drive traffic and sales to your business, whether it is a store front or online.
Again, these are creative ideas and they are relevant to the month. Obviously, I am not going to give you Valentines marketing ideas in June, this is why the month is important. I am making sure that you are planning ahead and doing tactics prior to the occasion or holiday.
