Introducing the 2009 Edition of Quirky Marketing Calendar eBook!

365 Ways to Promote Your Business Using Zany and Non-Traditional Holidays
Throughout the Year

 

by Heidi Richards Mooney

Just what is Quirky Marketing?

Quirky Marketing is “The process of cleverly promoting, selling, and distributing a product or service using an unusual, unpredictable act or event .“

Why should you care?

Do you find yourself running out of ideas to promote your business?

Have you come to a standstill with your marketing department?

Are YOU the Marketing Department of your company?

        Quirky marketing is not about your run-of-the-mill everyday marketing tactic.  It is more than that.  It is a combination of the creative, zany and off-the-wall.  It’s the ordinary marketing tactics taken to a new level - to create a more inspired, fun and interesting process for marketing products and services.  In the Quirky Marketing Calendar you will read about 12 months of quirky, zany and creative marketing ideas from around the globe.

For instance, did you know?  

January 4th is National Trivia Day - Main Street merchants in Flemington , NJ have created a trivia contest with a $1,500 merchandise prize, in an effort to get more foot traffic downtown. Eighteen businesses sent out "Downtown Flemington's Trivia Tour" game cards to 15,000 area homes. Players go to each business listed on the Monopoly-style board to get a question. At the next
business they can get the answer to the question and a stamp to prove they've been there. When all the businesses on the card are stamped, players put their card in a drop box at the Union Hotel.  Celebrate Trivia Day with promotional games and puzzles that stretch the minds of your customers.


March 5th is Nametag Day - Want some media attention? Do what Joe Porcelli from Neighbors for Neighbors  did.  Joe wore a nametag every day for the entire year of 2007 and got coverage which sparked other companies to jump on the Nametag bandwagon.  Wyndham Price Agency and the Norwich Bulletin of Massachusetts provided free nametags during the week leading up to Nametag Day. People dropped by Wyndham to collect their name tags and the Norwich Bulletin put a nametag ready to use right on their front page! There was a complimentary edition of the Norwich Bulletin delivered to all non-subscribers in Colchester . And the local Parks & Recreation hosted a wrap up Nametag Day event on Tuesday, January 23rd at the Colchester Youth and invited people to share their unique experiences of wearing the nametag for a
day and meet new people too.

October 23rd is National Talk Show Host Day – Do what Mark Hughes, marketing consultant did.  He says that when Steve Forbes, editor in chief of Forbes magazine didn’t return his calls, he bought a cell phone at Radio Shack for $100 – activated it and FedExed it to Mr. Forbes.  As soon as he received the receipt that the package had been received he started calling the cell phone. Imagine being Mr. Forbes, a box is ringing in your office, what do you do?  Open it and answer it – of course!  Hughes made an impression, got Forbes attention and ultimately ended up getting what he was after… an endorsement on a book he had just completed. You could send the phone to your favorite talk show host and see what happens.

These are just 3 of the 365 ways you can promote your business!

And that's not all!

In addition to 365 Ideas to promote your business, inside the 2009 Edition of Quirky Marketing Calendar, we show you how to use the calendar, how to work with the media, give you monthly action plan templates, a blank monthly calendar and more.

Here's what people who've bought Quirky Marketing have to say:


Quirky Marketing is one of the most unusual and practical marketing tools I have ever had."
"Quirky Marketing is one of the most unusual and practical marketing tools I have ever had.  It helps me come up with great ideas to tie in my services and products in a very natural way, that is of timely interest at various points during the year.  I plan to track the new campaigns I'm building around these ideas, so that I can make some changes next year.  If all goes as well as I hope it does, your quirky ideas will be adding some significant extra cash to my income this year.  Thank you!"  
Nancy Boyd ,  Founder and CEO ~Bright Wings, Inc. 

It is especially useful for fun tips on my radio show 
and I have been using it on Twitter.
"
 " I love the calendar.  It is especially useful for fun tips on my radio show and I have been using it on Twitter.  The special days and weeks are great ice breakers.  But I can also use the information to do radio shows that are timely, such as prevent child abuse month, and such.  Having all this info in one place is so wonderful.  Thanks so much! "    
Pat Montgomery
  ~ Parents Rule 

Here's what just a few people had to say about last year's Calendar!

“Heidi, I loved your 2008 Marketing Calendar!"
"Not only did it list cool and wacky holidays throughout the year, but the tips and ideas were invaluable.   I'm looking forward to creating and sending my clients off the wall greeting cards.  I can't wait to see your new calendar.  Now how do I keep my competitors from seeing this?    I'll be sure to pass it on to my friends.”  Heidi Caswell ~http://connectsimply.com/blog
 
"It’s so nice to have the research done for you ..."
“The 2008 Marketing Calendar was so helpful in not only planning my marketing schedule, but generating ideas for my monthly newsletter, blogs, and writing articles. It’s so nice to have the research done for you and have all the information in one place! Heidi is a true marketing expert and so willing to share her knowledge and experience. I can’t wait for the 2009 calendar and to see all the marketing opportunities available to my business for the year. Thanks as always Heidi!” Gillian Hood-Gabrielson, Healthier Outcomes ~ http://www.healthieroutcomes.com
"I used it in workshops with new business owners ..."

“Thanks for the opportunity to tell you how much I enjoyed the 2008 Marketing Calendar.  I used it in workshops with new business owners to help them jump start their campaigns. I also shared it with my clients to add a little flair in each month's projects.  One client expanded  their activities to include health- related holidays. Thank you again for helping me help my clients in their marketing efforts in 2008.” Kim Gray, Emerging Virtual Assistance ~ www.emergingva.com

"Gave me new and innovative ideas that had not been over-used by others."
“Marketing my business has not always been in line with the accepted " normal " manner of  doing so. I'm know to break the rules and go outside the box to make an impression or to draw attention to my project. I was so delighted with "Your Marketing Calendar~2008" -because, it allowed me to feel ok with my choice of marketing. Gave me new and innovative ideas that I felt had not been over-used by others. Your Marketing Calendar~2008 gave me permission to be off-beat and have fun while working for profit. How much better could it be? Thank you Heidi, I'm looking forward to the next level of your Marketing ideas. Bea Kunz, Sage Hill Farms http://www.sagehillfarmsandvintagestore.com
