Today we’re spotlighting the LotusJumper GPS Specials:

We asked GPS Specials what the inspiration was behind their company, this is what they had to say:

My children are my true inspiration.  I started marketing online when my daughter was just 2 years old so I could be a stay at home mom.  I now have 2 children, Jess 19 and Derek 15. Living in a small town, the internet opened up the world to me, literally.   I have been marketing electronics since 2005 because of my love of technology and gadgets.

When asked what achievement they were most proud of, GPS Specials said:

Doing over one million in Revenue my very first year selling electronics!  It is all about networking , advertising and marketing.

We asked GPS Specials why Internet marketing is so important for their company, this is what they had to say:

I  market both online and offline.  My motto is “Without advertising it is like winking at someone in the dark – no one will ever know!”  To be effective one must be found and seen!  Most people say “I can’t afford to advertise”… That makes me crazy as you truly can’t afford NOT to advertise if you seriously want to grow your business!  I do not see a benefit of winking at anyone in the dark!!

We gave GPS Specials a chance to give a “Creative Marketing Tip of the Day”, this is what they said:

Your URL should be simple – 2 words at most so it is easy to remember.  If you have a long name you can redirect another url just for advertisng.  I have done just that.  My url is GpsSpecials.com – it is only 2 words but most people do not spell specials correctly so I came up with GPSLady.com which points to the same website.    You should also add that easy to remember URL to your vehicle, stationary, email signature line, your clothing, jackets etc….  I sponsor certain events and always use my URL rather than just the name so when it is added in print or my name is called out I get that free advertising to my site.

Also Twitter, Yelp, Myspace and facebook are great places to social network.  I can be found on all under my name Jude Hodge as well as my business name.  Thank  you for asking I love marketing that is why I love Lotus Jump that helps be become better at it!
