Dear {FIRST_NAME},

There was a confused chimpanzee at the zoo. He had a Bible in his left hand and Charles Darwin’s Origin of Species in his right hand, and kept looking back and forth at each of them with a bewildered look on his face.

Just then the zookeeper came by and asked, “Why do you look so perplexed?”

The chimp said, “I keep going back and forth between these two books. I can’t decide whether I’m my brother’s keeper or my keeper’s brother.”

There are two Internet marketing options for your company. One, do it in-house yourself or with your own team. Two, you can hire an outside agency. It can be a dilemma—maybe not on the level of creation vs. evolution—but how do you decide between in-house or using an agency?

You may be too small to afford an agency so you have to do it yourself. Or you may be big enough that you can afford a team of Internet marketers. Even that can be tricky because there really aren’t many people out there who have the experience and talent for search engine marketing.

If you are on the bubble, give me a call at 720-922-3124 and let's talk about whether it makes sense to use an agency like Green Chair. We have developed some marketing packages that start as low as $500 per month or $1000 one-time. If we can’t help you or you decide to do it yourself, I’ll be happy to give you suggestions of directions to go.

Happy holiday season!

END OF THE YEAR EVALUATION

Everywhere we turn, people are talking about saving money. I agree—we should be wise in how we use our resources. In fact, a quote I’ve taken to heart lately is, “Cut your costs to the bone—stop leaking money, you may need it!” I’ve renegotiated an interest rate on a loan and eliminated online services I rarely used.

At the same time, experts tell us not to nuke our marketing budget even in a tight economy. People still need your services and are using the Internet even more to find you.

Between now and December 15 is a great time to evaluate your web site and Internet marketing strategy. For $500 we will meet with you to help make your web site more effective and to stretch your online marketing dollar. Call us at 720-922-3124 to set up an appointment for an End of the Year Evaluation.

Don’t be caught off-guard. Take advantage of this slower time to get prepared for a new year.
