  • How to Create a Killer Marketing Strategy
    May 6 2024
    Introduction If you're in business you know you need to market what you do or what you sell. Without sales of your product you won't make money or last long in your business. If you don't provide your services to clients or customers they won't experience the benefit that you provide. Most businesses are in the business of selling their products at a profit, or providing their services so that more people can experience the transformation you provide. This sounds simple enough, but what I find is that most businesses don't think through how they will market themselves and grow their business. Business owners and managers often focus on the operations, products, or services they provide, but don't go far enough to work on the business's marketing plan. If they do, it's likely that they decide to have a website and a social media presence. That's it. In this episode though, I'll guide you through a process to create a killer marketing strategy. This strategy can be used for a product or a service. At the end you'll be able to work through these steps for any aspect of your business. Ready to get started? Let's dig in! How to Create a Killer Marketing Strategy You begin with your business first, not your customer. You know what your company's objective is. You know your customer and how to talk to them. You know how to execute your plan. You know how to analyze the results and adjust.

    Twitter (X): @MKTGDistilled LinkedIn: @MKTGDistilled Have you ever stepped inside a business hoping to buy from them, only to discover you're just another transaction the staff had to deal with? I think we all have had that experience. I experience this nearly every time I go to a big-box store. I'm just a number, a transaction, and worse, a walking dollar sign as I navigate the aisles and shelves. As a consumer I'm sure you'll agree that this type of experience is less than ideal. How can you avoid this cold, soul-less, walking dollar sign approach to your business? That's the subject of this episode of Marketing Distilled, I'll cover personalization in marketing. I'll talk about what it is, how you can incorporate it into your business, what to avoid, and some examples of how I see companies do this well, and how companies have really messed up in their execution of being more personalized in their marketing. What is personalization? How Does Personalization Benefit me and my customers? How to get started personalizing your marketing How to Avoid the pitfalls of personalization Conclusion To conclude this episode, you've learned about the power of personalization in marketing. You've learned what it is, the benefits you have as a business, and the benefits you give your customers. You have an idea of what you need to do in your business to start if you haven't already.
