About Frank Prieto

Internet Marketing Strategist & Consultant

I was in the printing industry for 26 years and ran my own printing company with my family in Miami for two decades. My passion for sales and marketing goes back to the early days when I was a young and hungry salesman, determined to discover what made people buy.

I guess you can say I had a burning desire to unravel the psychology of selling, and really get to understand what makes people react to an offer and take action to buy a product or service .

Through the years my curiosity, determination, and relentless pursuit for the marketing ‘truth” (there is a marketing truth, you know) led me to find the answers.

Today I’m a marketing strategist in Miami, who uses a unique and proven approach to marketing. My strategies and tactics are based on the premise that marketing and advertising is a science, not an art.

I specialize in creating strategic marketing programs and implementing them using the latest digital printing and Internet marketing technologies. These strategies are designed to separate your company from the competition and increase your business dramatically using response-based marketing or what is also called direct marketing.

Do you believe advertising cannot be measured or tracked? Do you see marketing as a necessary evil because you know you have to spend money to make money, but you make the mistake of spending your advertising dollars on branding thinking that flocks of customers will come knocking down your door?

If this sounds like you you’re not alone. Unfortunately most small business owners make the same dreadful mistake. Do you know why? Because you have been bombarded all your life with advertising on television, radio, magazines and newspapers so you think you know how marketing is supposed to be done.

You might think catchy phrases and cute ads, or flashy websites with sound and music sell products, but I’m here to tell you this approach will burn through more than 30% of your hard earned money without any effect whatsoever on your bottom line. It might work for Nike and GM, but not for your business because you don’t have Nike and GM’s marketing budget.

Did you know it’s a fact that 37% of advertising dollars are wasted? That’s more than one third of a marketing budget. When you buy a car, a home or a pack of gum, do you tell the salesman; “Here’s ‘an extra 37% for you to keep?” Well, this is what small business owners are doing when they buy advertising today. They don’t know it of course, but 37% of their expenditure in traditional advertising will have no effect whatsoever on the bottom line.

If you’re struggling to generate highly qualified leads for your business and want a better return on your marketing dollars, click here now to contact me. I’ll let you know if I can help or not – and if I can’t help you I’ll recommend other options.
