Todays marketers today understand the main purpose of advertising is to get a response. It is to attract qualified prospects; that can, through using other marketing methods, be converted into customers. It makes sense therefore that the more prospects one can attract, the better the chances are that a customer base will grow. No matter what the size, all companies have to accomplish this same goal. How they achieve that goal is what differentiates the successful ones from the short lived ones.

One challenge that small to medium sized companies do have; that large companies generally do not have to contend with, is image. The large companies like Coke, IBM, Microsoft and others all have brand and name recognition. They have the credentials that make them a trusted name. Anything they have to say, we usually trust, will be worth reading, and therefore we respond accordingly. This is not the case with the small to medium companies. Fortunately there are tested and proven mechanisms that can be used to get their message in front of the people that they want it read by.

Throughout our lives we have all been conditioned to respond to certain things. We respond to smiles with smiles. We respond to anger with anger. The word FREE has always been an attention getting trigger. Although it is not always easy to get those interested in your product or service to contact you and leave you their contact information, it must still be the objective of all of your advertising and marketing. One of the most effective methods of achieving this objective is to offer a Free Report in your advertising material. This method works because it can be done in a non-threatening way that allows people to get access to what they want most; information that will help them deal with an issue they need to address. The Free Report requires that the prospect leave their contact information allowing you to stay in touch using other marketing tools to convert them to a customer. The report means they dont have to deal personally with an individual whose job it is to convince them to purchase even if they are just starting the process of information gathering.

Today there is a company that not only has incorporated this form of marketing into their products and services but also trains businesses on how to build their own special Free Reports. That company is Automated Marketing Solutions or AMS. AMS provides a full suite of marketing technology tools and processes that permit any company to deliver a comprehensive marketing program using tested and proven methods; Free Reports being one of them. Their twelve years of experience in Direct Response Marketing allows even the beginner to quickly integrate and take advantage of the benefits of this technique.

The benefits to this system are significant time savings and consistency in marketing messages, in what would otherwise be labor intensive tasks. It also means that business owners never need worry about losing customers who misinterpreted their lack of contact for lack of follow up.
