MAIN POINTS
- “Old school” marketing still works. Get your name out there whether it’s flyers, grab bags, coupons, etc.
- Cheap isn’t loyal. Loyal customers know you and want to do business with YOU, not the impersonal big-box retailers!
- Business is not about selling, it’s about building relationships.
