to the 2013 Marketing Presentation. I will be walking you through a list of marketing and advertising tools that have been developed and released so far this year, and touching on ways you can put these tools to work for you, to increase your revenue. The majority of the new tools are in response to your 2012 Marketing Wish List, as you will see noted. The few tools that are included which were not from the wish list are items that we deemed in need of updating or adding. Almost every tool has been touched in no small part by you, the franchise owners, through inspiration, creativity or experience. We would not have the strength or scope we do if it were not for your participation. Please continue to contribute, so that we can continue to produce the best materials possible. At the end of this presentation you’ll be invited to provide your feedback on any of the subject covered, via a special forum in the Message Board. - Tara Thomman, CMM Marketing since 2001

Featured here from the new “Paint Trees” line, based on a program

pioneered by Fairfax, VA, a 20x30 poster – perfect for printing at Costco.

Aruna sold a total of 28 trees in 2012!

Her studio fee is $12. Minus the cost of the wholesale trees at $15.95 ($446.60)

that's over $1,000 in profit, before charging studio fees!

What a great way to boost your profits!

THANK YOU ARUNA!

are a fabulous way to get those mommies coming back again and again over the course of a year. Offer for them to sign up for a series of holiday and seasonal workshops. In addition to create priceless keepsakes, they will get a chance to hang out with other new mommies! Provide some refreshments and encourage them to chat and make friends! Schedule your workshops during the week when it tends to be slow. For example, maybe they all take place on Wednesdays at 2pm. Schedule your whole year of Baby Print Workshops out so that as your customers sign up they can commit to the workshops they want, and put it on their calendars.

Let these mommies know about your Paint Me A Story and Kids Night Out programs… they may have additional kids at home!
