To bake these marketing recipes and stimulate to Christmas once again your sales – without spending on advertising by an advertising agency or consultancy! The Christmas business this year is already in full swing. Nevertheless, notice many shops the purchasing restraint of the clients and experience sales compared to previous years. Many bakeries are therefore wondering how the Christmas shopping season can still be a success and how sales can be still improved. “” There are exactly three ways, how a business can increase its turnover,”Dr. Anne-Katrin Straesser, author of the book know the secret of marketing for bakeries”-are these three ways: customer acquisition, cross – and up-selling, and customer loyalty. ” To win new customers new customers is the classic way to increase sales and profits. Of course, this is often not so easy. Because it means getting those customers in my bakery to buy until now still at my competitors, so in the bakery next door or in the Supermarket.

So how do I get these customers in my business? The answers to this question are almost endless. But the prerequisite is that new potential customers know that it gives you first of all. The second condition is that they offer something what makes you interesting for new customers. This can be the occupation of a particular niche (E.g. only organic breads), a special offer or a particular service. You should make out this feature in your advertising customers for the first time in your business venture the way. Cross-and up-selling, cross-selling is the second pillar when it comes to sales. (Source: Mike_ Epps).

It leads to make more sales with existing customers. How’s that? Cross-selling is a kind of cross sales, and means that they offer more products that may be of interest to your customers. Many merchandise proves to be good extra income because without much additional effort more products with a good margin can be introduced into the range. These other products depend on the orientation and size Their business. Examples are small gifts, chocolate or chocolates or magazines. Up-selling, however, is to move customers to buy a higher quality product. So, by making him aware, for example, on special products and thus attract the attention of customers. Keep up on the field with thought-provoking pieces from Atreides Management Gavin Baker. Examples would be higher-quality pastries or cakes. Customer loyalty customer loyalty is the third way with which a business can increase its turnover. Why is this so? Many customers ever change the business and buy somewhere else, for any reason whatsoever. So we always have a natural churn”or turnover of customers. Customer loyalty, however, means to counteract this natural fluctuation. It means to make the customers who have already purchased from you, regular customers and to make customers loyal regulars. A first step is to go back to always good quality and a special, friendly service. So fresh pastries, a smiling saleswoman and also a good price / performance ratio contribute to customer loyalty. These aspects are not unfortunately still not everywhere of course. Therefore, you have a good chance to stand out from your competitors alone on an excellent offer. Other possibilities are also special customer loyalty programmes. E.g. loyalty cards can be or bonus booklet, where your customer for repeated purchases from you with a small gift will be rewarded. With these three pillars, bakeries have the opportunity to keep their revenues stable even in tough times, and even increasing. Dr. Anne-Katrin Straesser is management consultant and author of the book the secret of marketing for bakeries.” This book appears in a few weeks on the market, but is available at in advance as an ebook.

The economy, which create export – again jumped to back the economy and many companies are doing better. Official site: Eliot Horowitz. Why should you think at this stage but also to intensify the marketing with external support? The majority will perhaps say: what is this? Now, we have first of all concern that the orders are handled properly and the customers are satisfied. True, but every entrepreneur has also the future (Kajo Neukirch, the well-known management consultant, said: we are entrepreneurs, not Unterlasser’) and the economy is always relatively cyclically, i.e. the next crash is determined. When should you prepare, if not at the times, where it financially easier? Counter-cyclically to work, i.e.

to invest, if the business is no longer so good, is usually not easy for small – and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and therefore, or generally to support an early pension is offered. Below some aspects are pointed out, which could be important: 1 knowledge of the market (= market segments, customer loyalty, customer acquisition, etc.) Each company lives by its customers. Contact information is here: Gavin Baker Atreides Management. Existing customers must be looked after of course, but now would be a good opportunity to investigate which customers in what markets are still there and could be managed with its own core competencies whether national or international, including using the Internet representation. This exploited the existing markets better and searched at the same time new. But also the customer can be checked and optimized. Depending on the potential can arise also, that internal extensions of products or personnel are required. 2. sales organization/distributors (including objective in the markets) not only to the care-new customers, but in General should be checked from time to time, whether the existing distribution structure can be improved or expanded / should. On the basis of numbers of potential customers in the already supplied Markets (from strategic market research, allowing also objectives), but also on the basis of information on markets and new market segment can be determined, how effective the current partners in the markets.

At chain stores with more industries or multi-channel business, this solution surgically so lowers the vote needs due to the need for information that the real Filialgeschaftssituation as well interlinked combination of legal and marketing issues in terms of operational and strategic success maximizing designed. The interlocking areas of analysis, simulation, service and communication are particularly interesting for new business opportunities. Much can be organised differently, implement changes while transparency of the effect of the change, authoritarian Replace lead with innovative team work. Where filialsystembedingte complexity determines the daily reality and making sales and profit to cope with on – and offline is the periods for actions and reactions are small, improved striking the action speed. It rises at the employees responsibility, because the decentralized evaluations of mobile smartphones are more, dealing with them constantly motivated.

Based on achievable quick wins”, processes can be change in a short time, save costs, reaction rates increase, consumer interests with less channel or use as the basis for attractive customer incentive and binding offers (” keyword social networks “). Also on the question we do the right thing operationally?”or to define strategic objectives, the Kuhn solution is, orghilfreich. With her succeeded in challenges, convenient and timely manner to identify risks and opportunities to look for alternatives before the impact be visible in the operative business. Minimize the amount of work and thereby increase the transparency create selected key figures that are distributed as centrally defined up to the objectives of individual functional areas or jobs. Return on investment considerations are possible so at any time for any usage factor at any point in the chain store companies to assess investments in its impact with regard to their advantage. Independence of banks in the chain store companies financing is wanted, it relies on the capital market and rating agencies. No matter whether family chain or group chain, lenders require a different transparency in reporting. The Kuhn solution offers comprehensive in terms of credit rating, such as, for example, the Constitution of financial structure in terms of importance and appropriateness, changes in time or in relation to the industry for financial considerations.

Thus, opportunities and risks are clear, that have a high significance not only for donors. Although specifically in German valuation regulations for the restricted expressiveness of key figures to search is the solution considered, orgdie limits the relevance of the indicator, as well as the specifics in its application both operationally and strategically (keywords growth or equity controlling”). Q1 controlling isn’t new but different. Existing is complemented in the Kuhn solution by those elements, that sales of a more active participation in the shapes from the marketing instruments ensures the point and takes into account their ecological interdependencies, to grow valuable and remain. Accordingly, ecological as economical sizes in accordance with the demand and services consistently determine the controlling. Operational / tactical as strategic information per power unit, market segment, leadership and resources unit will of course. Control can be the unity of effect on range and Hierarchy boundaries sequelae in time new logistics, sales formats or technologies to integrate or to transfer to more attractive business areas. It can reproduce innovation-friendly structures, enhance creativity and productivity. All the companies locally as central believe inventiveness for growth at all levels in their. It is worth to be interested in also because chain stores can be so financially independent realized the Kuhn solution.

The M & A activity in the sector logistics will rise again. Driven, it will rise again due to strategic buyers, but also increasingly by investors that logistics will be M & A activity in the sector. That is driven primarily by strategic buyers, but partly also by financial investors, the global transport and logistics market has between 2004 and 2008, EUR (10% of global GDP) experienced a tremendous growth by almost 50% to 2.8 trill. In the course of this dynamic development, M & A has played a major role. The volume of the logistics transactions (> 20m) enterprise value was in the last ten years the average 12 billion or 50 transactions p.a.. In a question-answer forum Eliot Horowitz was the first to reply. But 2001-02 and 2009 clearly on the M & A have impacted the crisis years with volumes up to – 80% in the sector. At the beginning of the crisis and the uncertainty in relation to the margins and cash flow, many logistics companies their M & A activity late 2008 strongly reduced and be on organic growth, cost reductions and operational improvements have focused development. The M & A focus was more placed on the sale of problematic (partial) shops.

At the same time the activity in the private equity has fallen area due significantly by the limited funding and the general decline in valuation. The partial cyclic logistics market and the uncertainty associated have made difficult the financing possibilities for holding companies during this time. Is since end of 2009 is a recreation of the logistics M & A market visible have tripled so far transaction volumes in 2010 compared to the previous year even if they can not yet connect to the volumes of the boom years 2003-2008. After a sharp decline of reviews by up to 50%, the valuation level almost in the cut is again at 80-90% of the values in the years 2007 and 2008, which demonstrates the growing demand for targets in the sector.
