About

DIYMarketers  –  It’s Like a Cliffs Notes to All Things Marketing in an Online Magazine

Remember being in high school or college and just being deluged by tons of reading and information.  Maybe if you didn’t have other things to do (like have a social life or go to that party) you might have actually enjoyed taking the time to read through “War and Peace” or maybe you  read the original, but reached for the Cliffs Notes to help you pick out just the important things for the exam.

We Filter Out The Fluff So You Get More Good Stuff

What sets DIYMarketers apart is that we are marketing experts who sift through the morass of marketing info, strategy, trends and tools every day.   Then, we pull out only what matters and share it with YOU.

Think of us as your marketing referral resource. We’ve used it, tried it and done it and will only recommend what works best so you don’t have to waste your time.

Features Full of Useful Fun

DIYMarketers is committed to your having fun making money and serving customers you love that love you back.  The best way to do that is to sink your teeth into our unique feature categories:

  • Sneak Peek: I suppose you can call me an early adopter on a budget.  That means I LOVE trying new tools and technologies – but hesitate to pay the high prices.  So I’m always looking for low-cost, no-cost ways to achieve professional results with little effort or cost.  I’m also somewhat of a business book addict.  In the sneak peek section, you’ll find book and product reviews as well as write-ups on trends and tools that I’ve run across and can’t wait to share.
  • 30-Minute0Marketing ™. Like Rachel Ray’s “30 Minute Meals” – our goal is to have you learning and doing something valuable in 30 minutes or less.  Got 30 minutes? Click on over to 30 Minute Marketing and try something new to get and keep customers in under 30 minutes.
  • Butt Savers: These are event-triggered “Oh-shit!” moments that  unexpectedly come up and bite you in the ass when you least expect them.  This is where you’ll find all kinds of templates, tools, tricks and resources that could get out out of a bind.  Like what you ask?  Well, ever get a call from a big customer saying that they’ve decided to switch to a competitor but have decided to give you one last chance to save the business?    Yeah, we’ve got a template for that.
  • Laugh it Off: Life is too short to take yourself so seriously.  In our Laugh it Off section, you’ll find a general mish mash of content whose only purpose is to make you smile.  Having a bad day?  Check out our “So you think THAT’s Bad series of anonymous most embarrassing moments.
  • Been There, Done That, Bought the T-Shirt: At first I thought of calling this section “Jump Start” because these are people, programs and providers that will get you on your way to a successfully completed marketing project.  But then I realized that I’d actually tried all of these and have been thrilled with the results.  So my contributors and I are passing them on to you.  Here’s what you can count on with the people, programs and providers that are featured here; they are a great value and will give you more than what you pay for — because that’s how we roll.
