OK, this one's been overdone, but not entirely. A calendar still makes a great marketing tool.The reason is simple. It keeps your name in front of your customers all year long. So how do you ensure they use your calendar instead of someone else's? Make your unique.Use an odd-shaped design. For instance, if you own an auto detailing shop you might design your calendar in the shape of a Ferrari. Or maybe, if you are a party supply retailer, you design your calendar in the shape of a balloon, with a string dropping down from the bottom of the calendar.Another way to make your marketing calendar unique is to personalize it for each customer. Suppose you have a list of Grade A customers you want to reward for their business. So as a Christmas gift you give them a calendar with important dates on it. But the important dates are important to them. In other words, their wedding anniversary, childrens birthdays, graduations, etc. Of course, the implied task is that you keep a running file of all your customers with this information in it, but you should be doing that anyway.Include photos of people in your community. Maybe they are prominent people or just regular people. Either way, you give your calendar a local, "down home" feel.Another way you can add value and make your calendar different from your competition's is to have a contest - an art contest, photo contest, famous quote contest, whatever. It could be anything that will get your custome
Since the onset of globalization in India during the early 1990s, successive Indian governments have pursued programs of economic reform committed to liberalization and privatization. Till 1994, the Indian telecom sector was under direct governmental control and the state owned units enjoyed a monopoly in the market. In 1994, the government announced a policy under which the sector was liberalized and private participation was encouraged. The New Telecom Policy of 1999 brought in further changes with the introduction of IP telephony and ended the state monopoly on international calling facilities. This brought about a drastic reduction and this heralded the golden era for the ITES/BPO industry and ushered in a slew of inbound/outbound call centres and data processing centres. Although the IT industry in India has existed since the early 1980s, it was the early and mid 1990s that saw the emergence of outsourcing. One of the first outsourced services was medical transcription, but outsourcing of business processes like data processing, billing, and customer support began towards the end of the 1990s when MNCs established wholly owned subsidiaries which catered to the process off-shoring requirements of their parent companies. Some of the earliest players in the Indian market were American Express, GE Capital and British Airways.
The ITES or BPO industry is a young and nascent sector in India and has been in existence for a little more than five years. Despite its recent arrival on the Indian scene, the industry has grown phenomenally and has now become a very important part of the export-oriented IT software and services environment. It initially began as an activity confined to multinational companies, but today it has developed into a broad based business platform backed by leading Indian IT software and services organizations and other third party service providers. The ITES/BPO market expanded its base with the entry of Indian IT companies and the ITES market of the present day is characterized by the existence of these IT giants who are able to leverage their broad skill-sets and global clientele to offer a wide spectrum of services. The spectrum of services offered by Indian companies has evolved substantially from its humble beginnings. Today, Indian companies are offering a variety of outsourced services ranging from customer care, transcription, billing services and database marketing, to Web sales/marketing, accounting, tax processing, transaction document management, telesales/telemarketing, HR hiring and biotech research.
Looking at the success of India's IT/software industry, the central government identified ITES/BPO as a key contributor to economic growth prioritized the attraction of FDI in this segment by establishing 'Software Technology Parks' and 'Export Enterprise Zones'. Benefits like tax-holidays generally enjoyed by the software industry were also made available to the ITES/BPO sector. The National Telecom Policy (NTP) introduced in 1999 and the deregulation of the telecom industry opened up national, long distance, and international connectivity to competition. The governments of various states also provide assistance to companies to overcome the recruitment, retention, and training challenges in order to attract investments to their region. The National Association of Software and Service Companies (NASSCOM) has created platforms for the dissemination of knowledge and research in the industry through its survey and conferences. NASSCOM acts as an 'advisor, consultant and coordinating body' for the ITES/BPO industry and liaisons between the central and state government committees and the industry. The ardent advocacy of the ITES/BPO industry has led to the inclusion of call centers in the 'Business Auxiliary Services' segment, thereby ensuring exemption from service tax under the Finance Bill of 2003.
These measures have led to a steady inflow of investments by large foreign companies such as Reuters, for establishing large captive ITES/BPO facilities across India. Moreover, the existing ITES/BPO operations of major multi-nationals are also being ramped up to cater to the ever increasing demand for better and speedier service. Almost all of India's top ITES/BPO giants have announced some form of expansion and are in the process of hiring manpower to fill the additional seats. India's competitive advantage lies in its ability to provide huge cost savings thereby enabling productivity gains and this has given India an edge in the global ITES/BPO marketplace. NASSCOM studies pinpoint the following factors as the major reasons behind India's success in this industry (Source: www.nasscom.org):
Abundant, skilled, English-speaking manpower, which is being harnessed even by ITES hubs such as Singapore and Ireland.

One of the great joys of the holiday season involves receiving the stack of catalogs that invariably clog the mailbox at the end of my driveway.Not withstanding the hernia I get from carrying them to the house, or the three acres of rainforest timber it took to print them, holiday catalogs provide a never-ending opportunity to look at stuff I don't want to buy.Unfortunately, when I do finally decide what I want to buy for those on my holiday shopping list, I find the one catalog I need mysteriously absent from the 6-foot stack.Fortunately, a new service at Google makes hunting through catalogs to find the perfect gift for yourself or others an absolute breeze.Log on to http://catalogs.google.com/ and test out Google's latest offering in an attempt to organize all information on the planet.At the time of this writing, Google's database of catalogs boasts over 6,000 catalogs covering everything from golf to music to footwear.The index allows you to browse catalog content either by entering keywords in a search box, or choosing categories in their directory-style listings.If you want the latest L.L. Bean or Harry and David catalog (or any other), you can perform a search for a specific catalog by name.If Google doesn't carry a specific catalog, you can click the "Help Google Add More Catalogs" link on the main page of the catalogs directory to suggest they take a look at it.I personally think Google is very serious

A promotional item is goods given away without charge to the community in an attempt to endorse a business or boost awareness in, or sales of, merchandise or service. Promotional items are often distributed at trade shows, used in direct mail and as part of guerrilla advertising campaigns.Promotional items are effective in boosting sales by increasing brand and company awareness. For example, imagine a small notepad with 25 pages. Each page has your logo imprinted on it. At a cost of 50 cents, that is 25 impressions at 2 cents an impression. Now, if that page gets passed on to someone else, the number of impressions increases and the cost per impression therefore decreases. This can be a very cost effective means of advertising and promoting your business, provided it is done correctly.Promotional products should be used to reinforce your identity, key message and benefits. To choose the right product you need to identify the problem you want to resolve and then establish your objectives.For example, do you want to:1. Increase Brand Awareness 2. Increase Company Awareness 3. Thank an employee or customer 4. Build web traffic 5. Boost sales 6. Provide incentives for customers to purchase larger quantitiesOnce you have selected your objective, you can then begin to plan what promotional items will best fit and accomplish that objective.Remember, promotional products are cost effective as they can g

The online world slowly and subtly has been replacing all other means of communication and entertainment, let that be the favorite companion i.e. a television set, todays newspaper or the old reliable radio box. This transition also implicitly covers various other facets than the stated entertainment factor like marketing. You still need to reach your customers, television or no television. But how do you go about it is the key question. Well the first thing that could now strike is by advertising on various websites and use of pop ups. This is certainly a known tool and am sure that an attempt to scroll through this article must have entailed an effort to ignore various pop ups that disturbed on the way.What most of us do not know is another influential form of marketing, especially for smaller players, that reaches out to your target customer base in a much elegant form; PODCASTS. The term might seem new but than this should be blamed upon the scant knowledge one could gather in this aspect. Lack of professional guidance is another close successor leading to relatively less use of this easy but excellent technology for marketing purposes.Podcasts, or more easily comprehended as (i)pod (broad)cast(ing), were introduced around 2000 and use XML based technology referred to as RSS (Real Simple Syndication). And believe me; if you understand the concept well, the use is actually quite simple. All you need to do is, prepare your media presentation or whatever f
