I’d like to suggest you make time for a little writing as well. There are three types of company stories that can help propel your business to the next level in the mind of your customer:
Last weekend I was out running my usual Sunday errands and one of my stops was the grocery store. I had my list ready and was ready to start shopping but when I walked through the door they were handing out coupons for 50% off toilet paper. Now, I normally stick to my list and get in and out, but the coupon seemed too good to pass up. So I added toilet paper to my list. When I got to the aisle and found the toilet paper, I stopped and sort of just stood there. There were so many options, how do I make a decision? This isn’t normally where I buy that kind of stuff so it all seemed really overwhelming.
Just the term “customer retention strategy” sounds intimidating and complicated. But it doesn’t have to be.
Although a potentially “hot topic” in content marketing, Influence marketing has been around since the days of greek curators and royal or celebrity endorsements of soaps and beverages in the late 1800’s. Today, we’d defind Influence Marketing as the act of engaging with current and potential leaders in your industry in order to gain ranks as a leader yourself, to increase meaningful activity on social media platforms, as well as to build your digital (and face-to-face) community of brand advocates.
If I asked you if you were engaged in strategic marketing, you’d probably say, “Yes, of course I am.” But strategic marketing is more than just finding your audience and marketing to them.
I’m a pretty old dog. I’ve been in the branding and marketing business for over 30 years, so I tend to think I’ve seen most everything. But it’s been impossible for a while now not to notice a phenomenon that I really thought I’d never see — working for free. We’re surrounded with free access to really complex services. Facebook is free. Twitter is free. Even hosting has become practically free.
Are you just starting out with social media and interested in developing a content marketing strategy? After you’re done setting up your blog and numerous social media outlets, the next step is to create a clear and concise strategy for what types of posts you will make, and why.
Hey, Wendy:
I’m reading a book and insight180 came to mind. The Art of Doing: How Superachievers Do what They Do and How They Do It So Well, by Camille Sweeney & Josh Gosfield. The book features interviews with respected, high profile professionals about how they do what they do. I heard the authors interviewed on two different radio programs during their book tour.
I recently heard a reference about branding and marketing that really stuck in my head. It expresses so well just how to think about branding and marketing as it relates to building a business.
