New website coming! & other musings about growth

I'm finally in the process of launching a new site for SharptonCreative! Time to move away from this blog platform and take my own image to the next level. I recommend most small companies start simple and inexpensive, and as they grow their income, they can grow their own image. There's nothing wrong with a grass roots approach to growing a business. Start cheap with a social media package including a blog site, facebook, twitter, google+, and even youtube and pinterest, if those interest you. This is a very cost effective way to get the word out about you and your new business. As you become more successful, we can talk about a more formal website and a wide variety of print materials, a direct mail campaign, a presentation package including a variety of print materials, etc.

A Marketing Projection should be in your Business Plan too.  Possibly even a Feasibility Study, if you're promoting a product. These things can start out small and simplistic but grow with your success. I thrive on working with start ups and being a part of the growth of their business!
