It is not professional in any way and
does not show that you are in
business. It may also be seen as
spam.
Tools such as Mailchimp, Mad Mimi,
and Aweber have been specifically
designed to help you communicate
effectively with your customers. You
can schedule when your email will go
out and also track those who open
your emails.
I recommend Mailchimp and Mad
Mimi as they are very easy to set up
and use. There are many YouTube
videos you can watch to give you a
step-by-step guide to set up your
account. However I can help you set
up this up if you need help.
More importantly, you need to
communicate regularly at least once
a month with the people on your
email list. As these are the ones who
will buy from you since you have
developed an ongoing relationship
with them.
5. HAVE A FACEBOOK BUSINESS
PAGE.
The days when Facebook was used
only for catching up with friends
from university or your family, are
long gone.
If your business is not on Facebook
then you are missing out on potential
customers.
Facebook is the next big thing for a

reach and target your ideal
customers on Facebook these days.
On your Facebook page your goal is
to provide value in form of practical
tips your fans would appreciate.
