(EMAILWIRE.COM, February 13, 2009 ) DETROIT—The US Small Business Administration estimates that more than half of the private non-farm gross domestic product comes from small businesses. Therefore it goes without saying that small businesses will play a major role in recovering the economy. So far, they are doing their part by reducing prices in order to attract customers.
Many small businesses are promoting price reductions as a direct response to the lagging economy. An Internet search of “economic stimulus sale” returns over 11,000 results, mostly from small business websites. These sales sales are meant to spur spending when consumers and business would otherwise be hoarding cash.
WhereToFindCare.com (http://www.WhereToFindCare.com) is one example which recently launched a “Beat the Bad Economy” campaign touting 60% off of its marketing services for health care providers as well as an entry to win a Nintendo Wii. The company says the sale is its effort to help clients survive in this challenging economy. Other businesses are slashing prices on anything from automobiles to video games.
“This is the worst time for a health care organization to cut back on marketing efforts,” says Barbara O’Connell, co-founder of WhereToFindCare.com. “Their reimbursements are declining so they must increase census in order to survive…and the only way to do that is to reach new patients through marketing efforts.”
WhereToFindCare.com’s “Beat the Bad Economy” promotion runs through March 31, 2009.
