10 Key Elements Of A Successful Small Business Marketing Plan
CliquePrize® has researched the 10 key elements of a successful small business marketing plan and where the app fits in:
1. Executive Summary
CliquePrize® is a mobile app designed to help small businesses generate leads, increase brand awareness, and drive foot traffic through promotions like Giveaways, Video Contests, Events, Raffles, Text to Instant Win Promotions and Surveys such as quizzes, polls and questionnaires. Unlike traditional marketing efforts, CliquePrize® offers cost-effective and local targeted promotions, ensuring small businesses reach the right audience with cost-effective measurable results.
2. Target Market Analysis
Understanding your ideal customer is crucial. CliquePrize® leverages Apple location services to ensure that Contestants are local, making promotions highly targeted to the nearest Metro Market. This reduces wasteful spending on broad, wide-net ineffective advertising. With Video Contests and Questionnaires for example, small businesses can gather real-time customer feedback, helping refine their marketing approach and learn what customers want and don't want.
3. Unique Value Proposition (UVP)
CliquePrize® allows small businesses to attract new Contestants and keep them engaged at a fraction of the cost of traditional marketing. Unlike competitors, CliquePrize® provides a fully automated system for lead generation, customer retention, and loyalty tracking. The app's ability to collect Marketing Qualified Leads (MQLs) and Sales Qualified Leads (SQLs) gives small businesses a strategic advantage to traffic marketing efficiency.
4. Competitive Analysis
Most small businesses struggle to compete with larger brands due to budget constraints. CliquePrize® solves this by offering a cost-effective lead capture app that gives Small Business Owners called Sponsors the ability collect valuable customer data, including emails and mobile numbers, for precision database marketing. This makes it easier to nurture then convert one-time visitors into repeat paying customers, giving small businesses a significant competitive advantage over those relying on word of mouth without data capture.
5. Marketing Goals & Objectives
Using the SMART framework, small businesses can set clear, measurable objectives with CliquePrize®. The app enables precise audience targeting, focusing on local customers to minimize wasteful ad spending.

7. Budget & Resources
CliquePrize® offers cost-effective pricing plans, including Subscription Plan B ($199/month), which allows small businesses to run a promotion every month without incurring large ad costs. This affordable plan ensures maximum ROI with minimal financial risk as monthly promotions are far more effective at generating long term growth than those run on occasion
