			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left"><span class="Bold">Integrated Marketing</span> is a lot like farming. You focus on the three to five mile radius around your business. Your focus is for you to become the dominant business in your market area. This is your farming area, the three to five mile radius <span class="RedBold">around your business.</span></p>
<p>Now you plant the seeds. Your seeds include<span class="Bold"> email, fax, U.S. Mail, telephones an</span><a href="http://blogs.chalkboardwebsites.com/marketing/files/2008/12/hot-wok.jpg"></a><span class="Bold">d personal contact. </span>These are the seeds of Integrated Marketing. Now, you need to nurture and fertilize the crop through community and neighborhood involvement, and by sending birthday and anniversary cards to current customers. Welcome cards to New Move-Ins, Promotions, Special Events, First-Time Customer Recognition and follow-up, Increasing Customer Frequency Programs, Family and Kids Marketing, Being the &#8220;Party Place&#8221; Hiring Neighborhood Marketing Representatives, Selecting SuperStar Employees, Having Employee Incentive and Recognition Programs and continually having Outstanding product and service.</p>
<p>There is a lot of &#8220;manual labor&#8221; involved in farming and/or Integrated  Marketing. There is a lot of thought and planning. If you are to get &#8220;Big&#8221; it is going to require delegation on your part. You need to<span class="Bold"> involve your employees;</span> they are your greatest asset. Finally, you need to understand marketing and become effective and efficient in your marketing efforts.</p>
<p>I want to tell you that this concept of <span class="Bold">&#8220;Integrated  Marketing&#8221;</span> which allows you to become the dominant business restaurant in your market area is the smartest, savviest marketing approach to increasing sales that there is. There are many, many areas that are involved in your &#8220;farming&#8221; project:</p>
<ul class="ListDisc">
<li><span class="RedBold">Your own current and former employees</span></li>
<li><span class="RedBold">Your own past and present customers</span></li>
<li><span class="RedBold">Your key community and business contacts list</span></li>
<li><span class="RedBold">All your business neighbors</span></li>
<li><span class="RedBold">All residential areas in your market area</span></li>
<li><span class="RedBold">New residents in your area</span></li>
<li><span class="RedBold">A selected occupational group or groups, where you have special expertise or satisfied customers - all the firefighters in town, or all the policemen, insurance agents, bankers, merchants, etc. Any area that is of interest to you.</span></li>
<li><span class="RedBold">Groups and organizations i.e. Service clubs, chamber of commerce, sports groups, fund raising organizations. Groups and organizations that can help your business grow in sales and profit.</span></li>
</ul>
