Better marketing
= bigger sales
Better marketing is about people and how they choose
Better marketing = bigger sales




If someone is looking
  for what you offer,
    where are they
       looking?
Better marketing = bigger sales




  If they find you,
what will they see?
Will they understand
 why they should
     choose you?
What do they want from you?
Better marketing = bigger sales




  A surprise … quick,
    simple, easy …
 information… answer
 my questions … talk to
      me …WIIFM
What’s unexpected?




    Surprise me!
It’s just a garbage truck
Or it’s a WOW truck!
Why should I care? How does this work?




                  I get it!
What’s in it for me?
Looks easy, simple!
Make it easy to choose




          Good
      information!
I know what they sell …
And here’s how to buy
Be relevant to your audience




         Engage me
Architects want to see
it in use and understand
why it’s better
Architects need information…
We live in an
  overwhelmed,
   time-starved
      culture
    packed with
too many choices
Focus your marketing




           A brand
         helps people
            choose
it’s about
communication
From Inc.

Building a brand




  communicate
   your value
     not just what you do
Features vs. benefits




    They’re not buying
          a drill
    They’re buying the
      hole it makes
2010 – 5.3
2011 – 10.4
2012 – 16+
When
people
know
“what’s in
it for me?”
when
they’re
taking
action,
you’ll see
bigger
sales.
Now
what?

Today’s
audiences
are
different.

Is it time to
rethink
your
marketing
to reach
them?
Questions?
