Fitness Boot Camps Canada: The five worst mistakes most companies make for Internet marketing and how to avoid them!

As an Internet marketing company, we try to make sure that were on the very edge of what's happening in the industry.

With that in mind we see companies making the same mistakes over and over again. These are the five big ones, and how to avoid them.

1. You're not tracking your marketing!- let's face it it's true, you have no systems in place for tracking all your marketing and therefore you don't really know what is pulling in proper leads and what is not. You need to use a system of tracking all your marketing an easy one is an Excel spreadsheet and a better one is a CRM like VTiger. By tracking all your marketing ,eventually you'll know what's working and not working for your company and you know where to place your marketing dollars.

2. Your website – OMG – when the last time you took a hard look at your website and asked these questions? Is my website up to date-not only with content but does look like it was designed in 1980? Is it converting-? Do people actually call you or e-mail you from your website and is it making you money, if not, it's time for new one or to have someone go over your copy.

3. Do you have a robust social media program? let's face it that's a new buzzword for today's age social media but the majority of clients I talk to don't have any great social media program in place and you absolutely need one. Social media allows you to reach clients who may want to use your services or hire you, either do it yourself or hire someone to do it for you and then taken over yourself.

4. SEO-This stands for search engine optimization, and it means the difference between having a great website that is like a billboard your basement or having a great website that is number one on page 1 of Google. Just Google, Calgary marketing company, we used to spend $1000-$2000 a month on Google ad words and now with natural search engine listing optimization we spend zero on Google ad words. That's a savings of $12,000-$24,000 a year, not to mention how many amazing leads we get through website every single day.

5. Systems – Many years ago I worked for large Corporation (It was the only time my whole life I ever did) and the only reason I did that was to learn how this Corporation did so well. What I found out was they had a system or a process for everything they did. Most companies we talk to just kind of fly by the seat-of-the-pants for most everything they do and is not a written process or system for anything or very few things. Let's say you got hit by a bus tomorrow. Would someone be able to take over your company and do what you do by the fact that everything has a process and system. If not,you need somebody to help you come in and create them.

So there you have it. These are the top five things I see under regular basis that most companies are not doing that they should be doing in order to reach their yearly sales goals. The good news is we have some great training coming up and were teaching all of these. I hope to see you in April!
