Tips from August 11, 2009
The Small Business tips today discuss target audiences: how to tailor to your target audience.
- Utilize communication streams that your target audience most
frequently uses. Blogs, e-mail, advertising in niche magazines, and
fliers all relate to specific age categories.
-
Configure business hours to meet the lifestyles of your
customers. Business workers usually cannot reach a store until after
5PM so stay open later than 6PM.
-
Make your business accessible by having access to parking and
easy entry for those of all ages and capabilities. Make sure your
business is accessible online as well.
-
The environment in your business must make your target audience
comfortable and welcome. If your customers have kids, have a play place
for them.
Daily Overview: Your business needs to be accessable, comfortable and
convenient in relation to the preferences of your identified target
audience.
