Marketing is so important to the success of small businesses that I wanted to talk a little about it today. Your marketing should be purposeful and consistent. Spend time marketing your business at least once a week and the results will pay off!

To make it fun, I have created a Meme: “A quiz or survey that is copied from one webpage or online journal to another, each participant filling in his or her personal answers.”

Here are the rules:

• Every Monday, write a blog post about what you are going to do to market your small business this week.
• Include the Monday Marketing graphic code in your blog post.
• Sign up with the form below my Monday Marketing post so we can visit your blog and gain inspiration and ideas.

Easy, right? The more we network with this, the better off we will all be, so be sure to share your Marketing Monday Meme blog post links on Twitter with the hashtag #mmm (#mm is already being used) and spread the word on your other social networking sites, too! I’m excited to see all the new ideas for small-business marketing out there!

There is also a button available for your side bar, if you would like. The code is here.
