Author: You need to fill yourself with a burning desire, and make it your goal, to add extra value to your Face Painting customer lives and you will then be perceived in a different light from the normal, average Children’s Entertainer and other allied small business owners.
So how can you make a big difference to the life of your Face Painting or Children’s Entertainer customer?
After a Face Painting birthday party or event stay around a bit and give a helping hand. Home-based parties are always fraught with 20 or so hyper kids, usually running amok, and the party parent will really appreciate a hand in the kitchen, tidying away mess from the floor or to assist in organising the games. Do this with no extra charge, of course.
On receiving a telephone enquiry from a new and prospective Face Painting or Entertainment customer, send them something of value in the post or by email. Your added-value pack could include party planning tips, URL’s of party sundry suppliers, a list of the local community halls and centres with contact information, party food ideas, cake suppliers and other local allied entertainers. The ideas for your added-value pack are endless.
Send little Johnny a birthday card in the post. Get your timings spot-on and ensure that it lands on the mat on his actual birthday. Inside the card you could include a personalised message about a previous birthday you spent with him, and as a nice touch, include a Face Painting or Entertainment logo branded photo of yourself. Prior to sending him this card, hopefully you would have sent his mum a gentle reminder to use your services again, six weeks earlier.
When you put your mind to it, you’ll be able to come up with loads of way to add value to the life of your Face Painting or Children’s Entertainer customer. A good way to do this is to think about the recent service providers you have used in your business or for a personal use and think about ways in which they could have added more value to you by making the experience by far a greater one.

For some, running a small business can put a knot in your stomach, turn your legs to jelly and have you diving under the duvet when you think about how to effectively market your Face Painting or Children’s Entertainment business.
So how do you initially get yourself going with this ‘marketing thingy’ and propel yourself into the same league like the big guys?
Well first and foremost for the moment, put down your face paints, your balloon twisters or your magic wand and take out a pen and pad instead. You now need to focus all of your creative energy into setting yourself a sound marketing plan.
Where to start – well here’s a little helping hand of some fundamental marketing tactics that you should be using in your Face Painting or Children’s Entertainment business:
Your advertising. Scrutinise it. Are you doing influential direct response adverts with grabbing headlines and compelling call to actions?
Where is your target audience? Do you really know? What studies and surveys have you done to capture the complete demographical information on them?
Is your website working hard enough for you or is it in need of a workout? How good are your search engine rankings? Are all your meta tags installed effectively? Are you tracking and analysing your site visitors and do you know how many are converting?
Have you been building relationships with your customers lately? Do you keep in regular contact with them and are you continuing to source new reports, stories and articles to send out to them?
How many testimonials did you capture this month and to what advantage are you using this influential social proof. I hope they are not stuffed away in a drawer somewhere!
The big difference between a pocket-money existence to a full-time explosion is all about being the supreme marketer of your Face Painting or Entertainment business – not the doer of your service!
Maybe you’re at a stage now where you want, need and desire to take your Face Painting or Children’s Entertainment business to the next level, to have more income streams and more profit in the bank, and to ‘give up your day job’ if you have one.
The one and only answer is to become a master marketer – it really is as simple as that!
