Great Lessons in Small Business Marketing
By WordsmithBobI found this article online a couple weeks back and realized it eloquently explained why so much small business marketing doesn’t work.
Regardless of your viewpoint on free trade, read what this guy says and really absorb it. Think about it. And then apply it or ask your marketing person to utilize this idea in your marketing. Remember, your customers are all human beings regardless if they are B2C or B2B. Human stories sell.
Excerpt from – Free Trade Advocates Face ‘Difficult Time’
PS if you use stories or case studies or “success stories” in your marketing, remember that it’s not a corporation reading these. It’s a flesh and blood human being who is thinking about themselves first and the company second.Don’t just tell what the benefit is to the company. Make sure you explain what the benefit was to the person who implemented the idea or plan. They got a promotion, they watched slaes in their division rise, “they got the satisfaction of watching the compnay double sales in a year”.
