With so many costs to consider, marketing is often one of the last items that small businesses budget for. SMEs don’t have the same money to spend on advertising that big companies do. Large corporations have the advantage of high-brand awareness, as well as the cash flow and floor space for an in-house marketing team. Without marketing, however, your small business will struggle to grow.
Wouldn’t it be great if you could develop a complete marketing strategy and implement it without impacting your cash flow? With Bartercard, you can! You can work a whole SME marketing plan, paying for it all on Bartercard. Coordinate everything from networking, telemarketing, database purchasing, to email newsletters and radio advertising.
