So I consider myself to be somewhat of an expert when it comes to determining what makes a successful Yellow Page advertisement. It begins with the placement. Is it easy to find? For example, if you are a plumber selling water heaters, did you place the ad under plumbing or water heaters? Look in your local book and decide where the majority of ads are residing.

Lesson? Be certain you are ready to serve your customers when they need you, not the other way around. If your business cannot or will not respond during off-hours, make your real "I'll get right back to you" business hours clear in your marketing materials. This applies to both large corporations and small trade businesses. The winners -- the smart ones -- are the ones who are ready to sell when their customers are really ready to buy.
