Say you want to end the year with 50 more good customers you need to plan on how you will get them. If you need to contact your customers by phone make sure you are doing it at a time when they will be least busy. Or have that be one of the things you find out about them in the beginning ~ "What are the best times for me to call you?". Be sure to reach out to businesses that might allow you to leave some of your flyers, catalogs, or business cards in their waiting areas. Businesses like beauty shops, barbers, laundries, etc. If you have a business that is geared towards babies than keep an eye out in the local paper for newborns.
