Understanding Yourself and Your Audience: The Power of Myers-Briggs in BusinessHawkPartners
If you are like most people, you have probably taken Myers-Briggs at some point. But you do you actually remember what it means? This presentation will help you understand your type and give you an exercise that applies what you learn in a business context.
Extreme Customer Insight: Mastering the Marketing Secret WeaponApril Dunford
We know that understanding customers is the key to better marketing but we don't always get in front of customers as much as we should. Here's how to make customer interaction a habit, what questions to ask and how you can use what you've learned to improve everything (not just your marketing).
In this presentation, Marketing Motivator Jennifer Henczel provides questions to inspire you to brainstorm, create and cultivate your brand.
Engagement goes hand-in-hand with branding. The who, what, where, and how of product and content development also apply to creating your brand. Who you connect with, what you do to connect with people, where you connect with people, and how you connect with people is your band in action. It's what people see and how they will determine who you are to them, thus creating your brand.
Your brand is not necessarily what you think you are, it's what is in the minds of the people you are reaching. The ultimate goal is to align those 2 perceptions as closely as possible.
People want to do business with people. So, while we may come up with logos, brand names, and slogans along the way, keep in mind that people want to know YOU. They want to know who you are, what you offer, and what you are all about. So dig deep to explore your highest and truest self and demonstrate that in everything you do.
Don’t be vanilla! First, before you even begin, be sure that you are committed to showing people that you are the best at one thing. Do not set out on this journey with a plan to list every single thing you have ever done and can do. Build your story around the one thing that makes you stand out in the crowd. Some people think they are going to miss out on opportunities if they reduce the number of things they offer and just focus on one thing. The opposite is true, you will actually gain a more targeted audience with a higher return. That is the only way you are going to rise above the noise. Otherwise, your message is going to become diluted.
Next, look at the leaders who inspire you and what you admire about them. Then, explore what is unique about you and define your audience.

What is market research?
Market research is the process of gathering information about your business's buyers personas, target audience, and customers to determine how viable and successful your product or service would be among these people.
Market research tells you where these members of your audience and base of customers are conducting their own buyer research about products and services similar to those you sell. It also tells you what's trending in your industry, what your target audience and customers want and need out of products and services like yours, and what's influencing their decisions to convert and buy.Primary vs. Secondary Research
There are two main types of market research that your business can conduct to collect actionable information on your products including primary research and secondary research.
Primary Research
Primary research is the pursuit of firsthand information on your market and its customers. You can use focus groups, online surveys, phone interviews, and more to gather fresh details on the challenges your buyers face and the brand awareness behind your company.
Primary research is useful when segmenting your market and establishing your buyer personas, and this research tends to fall into one of two buckets:
· Exploratory Research: This kind of primary market research is less concerned with measurable customer trends and more about potential problems that would be worth tackling as a team. It normally takes place as a first step before any specific research has been performed, and can involve open-ended interviews or surveys with small numbers of people.
· Specific Research: This kind of primary market research often follows exploratory research, and is used to dive into issues or opportunities the business has already identified as important. In specific research, the business can take a smaller or more precise segment of their audience and ask questions aimed at solving a suspected problem.
Secondary Research
Secondary research is all the data and public records you have at your disposal to draw conclusions from. This includes trend reports, market statistics, industry content, and sales data you already have on your business.
Secondary research is particularly useful for analyzing your competitors. Here are three types of secondary research sources that make this process so beneficial:
· Public Sources: These sources are your first and most accessible layer of material when conducting secondary market research. Being free to find and read — usually — they offer the most bang for your buck. Government statistics are arguably your most common public sources, according to Entrepreneur. Two U.S. examples of public market data are the U.S. Census Bureau and the Bureau of Labor & Statistics, both of which offer helpful information on the state of various industries nationwide.
· Commercial Sources: These sources often come in the form of market reports, consisting o.
When target positioning for marketing, know your clients well enough to be your best friend. Make a clear definition of the type of person the business would appeal to. What are the likes, dislikes, experiences, and values of the prospect? What kind of energy is needed to appeal to them? Only then could you start targeting your search campaign.
Tips and tools you need to help define or redefine the needs of your customers. I share the importance of market research and how to conduct a market analysis. I also discuss how you can apply what you’ve learned to strengthen your marketing plan.
This module aims to explore your creative business, and adapting it from an idea into an opportunity. It will also examine the role of marketing research and thoroughly assess key sections of the actual business plan.

Connect creativity exercise Excerpted from Edward de Bono’s “How to
Have Creative Ideas: 62 Exercises to Develop the Mind”
The aim of this exercise is to find multiple connections. How do you
move from one item to another? The task is to arrange a bridge
between two chosen ends.
6. 3. Warm-up exercise
1. Obtain five random words from https://creativitygames.net/random-word-generator or ask Julie
2. From these five random words select two words. These two words are going to form the end of
the bridge.
3. Now arrange the remaining three words to form the bridge. Each word must connect to the word
on each side of it, so that you move smoothly along the bridge from one end to the other.
4. For each link the bridge, describe clearly the basis for the linkage. Why does this word lead onto
the next?
5. Be prepared to share your linkages with the bigger group.
Note: You are choosing the end words for the bridge and also the order of the linking words. You
may need to experiment to get as sound a bridge as you can.
8. 4. Marketing 101
The classic role of
marketing includes the
following:
Distribution - Deciding
how you'll get the
goods or services you
want to sell to the
people who want to
buy them.
9. 4. Marketing 101
Financing - Generating enough
revenue for product development
and marketing.
You need money to make a living
and continue producing.
10. 4. Marketing 101
Market Research - Market
research is about gathering
information concerning
your target customers.
Who are the people you
want to sell to? Why should
they buy from you?
11. 4. Marketing 101
Pricing - If your price is too
high, you might lose
customers -- but if you price it
too low you might be
undervaluing the perception of
quality. The "right" price
normally comes through trial
and error and doing some
market research.
12. 4. Marketing 101
Product and Service
Management -
listening to
customers,
responding to their
wants and needs, and
keeping your
products and services
fresh and up to date.
Does the work you
do have an audience?
13. 4. Marketing 101
Promotion - Advertising your
products and services is
essential to attracting new
customers and keeping
existing customers coming
back.
14. 4. Marketing 101
Selling - Selling can
happen only after
you've determined
the wants and needs
of your customer
base and are able to
respond with the right
products at the right
price point and time
frame.
19. 5. What is marketing
research?
•A community health organization needs to know how to better develop parenting
classes for parents of mentally challenged children
•The president of an energy company needs to understand the concerns of
company’s employees as the jurisdiction goes through deregulation
•A wine merchant can save $250,000 a year by changing the bottle shape for one of
its wines. However, will changing the shape cause consumers to buy more or less of
that brand, and by how much?
•A pharmaceutical firm needs to know which form of a new drug to market
•A manufacturer of bar code-readers wants to expand its product line by having
other companies integrate bar-code readers into their products.
•A religious organization needs to understand the perceptions and preferences of its
members
20. 5. What is marketing
research?
Marketing research deals with the collection,
processing, analysis, and communications of
information regarding people’s attitudes,
feelings, intentions, and behaviour toward
products, services and those organizations and
people involved in any aspect of marketing.

marketing issues
•Designs the methods for collecting the pertinent information
•Manages and implements the data collection process
•Analyzes the data
•Transforms the findings into usable marketing information
•Communicates the information and its implications to the
marketing managers
25. 5. Secondary research
Also known as desk research, the internet does have all the
answers… you just have to look for them.
Sector research is also secondary research such as Culture Track,
and other surveys issued by arts organizations
Any other research you don’t do yourself is secondary research.
26. 5. Primary research
Research existing offerings:
- Customer satisfaction (are your customers happy… or not?)
- Effectiveness of current work (is your current work doing
well?)
Launching a new offering:
- Is there a demand for it? (Who wants your products or
services?)
- Will it generate sufficient return on investment? (Is your
investment of time and money worth it?)
29. 6. Competitor analysis
Make it relevant for you!
- What 10 people / orgs do you think are doing
a great job? Why?
- Reach out to them to find out what they do
well and what they struggle with.
- What is their “USP” - unique selling
proposition?
- Who is their audience?
30. 6. SWOT analysis
Take a deep breath, and get ready to do a SWOT analysis on your own work.
31. Let’s recap!
Now you know:
- The different elements of marketing
- The steps of marketing research
- What your competitors are doing well
- You have done a SWOT analysis on yourself
Now it’s time to identify your target audiences (no, it’s not
‘everyone) and turn them into personas.
-
33. 7. Build personas for your
target audiences
◉ Who is the persona? What personality traits
characterize him/her?
◉ What roles does s/he play? What does his/her typical
day look like?
◉ Where is the gap in his/her needs/wants beyond what
we’re offering?
◉ When does s/he close this gap?
◉ Why should s/he care about us as an organization /
artist / individual?
◉ How can I reach this person?

38. 8. “Creating your problem
statement”
After you have completed your competitor and SWOT analysis, you need to figure out your business
problem and how research can help you find the answer.
1. Recognize the problem. (What do you want to do?)
2. Understand the background of the problem (Look at your
SWOT, competitive analysis)
3. Determine what decisions need to be made (What do you do
next?)
4. Identify what additional information is needed.
5. Formulate the problem statement.
39. What next?
Once you have your problem statement, you can start to
research to gather information to solve the problem. This
research could include:
- Observational research (following your top artists on
social media and tracking what they do well)
- Surveying your current audiences / customers
- Asking for feedback after workshops / transactions
through a poll
- Interviews with customers / clients.
- How else can you gather research?
40. What do you people
see when they look
for you?
41. 9. Breakout group exercise
◉ Get into groups of 3 people. Use your phone or laptop to
search one another. Spend a few minutes looking at the
following:
- Quality of images on social media
- First four to 6 listings on Google
- Content of images on social media
- Topics covered on social media
Present one of the profiles to the group and answer these
questions:
- Did you find anything surprising? Upsetting?
- What do you want to change?
42. What you should do
- Follow anyone in your field who is doing a great job and
interview them. Write down what they are doing well.
- Do a SWOT of your work and spend more time on your
strengths and opportunities.
- Identify your top target markets and forget - literally forget -
about all of the others.
- Ensure that you are constantly finding ways to do feedback
loops, and research your customers / clients so you can
improve
- Do this process at twice per year to evaluate growth, change,
priorities

You are the only you.
How is your work unique?
Only use the tools to help you reach your
goals and leave the rest.
Today’s format is quite informal and I would be pleased if you want to ask questions throughout. This workshop is a session to help you know what questions to ask and hopefully give you some focus after you leave here with what your next steps should be. Also, I am a resource for you so you can contact anytime and I will be happy to offer you advice and feedback, or connect you with a professional if you need help with marketing.
Music degree and pursued arts administration right after graduation and have worked as an arts marketer ever since. I also teach market research and digital campaign evaluation at a local college in Kingston, so if you have questions about how to write a survey, let me know!
Artists already know that there are many paths and many solutions to one problem. You should try doing this exercise with a group of public servants! This exercise if to show you that, like any creative work, there is no one solution to arts marketing. There is not one thing that you MUST be doing to reach your goals. Your goals are unique and your approach to marketing and communications should be as well. I hope by the end of today you will have some resources to figure out what your next steps are.
How do people purchase tickets to your show? How to please hire you to do a commission? Etc.
If you are a professional artist, you have expenses. How will you pay for food, housing and life in general? You need to generate enough revenue to make a living.
This is my favourite part of marketing. Who comes to your shows? Who buys your paintings? Why?
Valuing your work at the right price is not easy. What is your time and expertise worth as a teacher, facilitator or performer? Researching best practice and not overpricing - or underpricing - your work is really important.
Are you responding to your community - however you define that - and presenting work that has an audience?
How do people know about the work that you are doing? You need to promote that product or service so they know you exist and want to buy from you over and over.
Now you must sell! The right product at the right price at the right time.
This wheel is a diagram of what Integrated Marketing and Communications is. In some bigger arts organizations these two functions are split up, but I like to see them work together. They are all about setting you up so you can sell your product or service to the right person, at the right price for the right time.
This is your top selling tool- the mobile phone. It doesn’t matter who your market is because almost every demographic and psychographic will be interacting with your product or service through an online search, opening an email newsletter, reading an online review, seeing your content on Instagram, watching a video on You Tube, buying a ticket on your website, etc.
Every day there are 3.5 billion Google searches worldwide. These searches are looking for answers.
Dr. Julian Norris - a wonderful teacher from Calgary - shared this concept with me and it really resonated with me. This chart was created by a military commander in the late 1800s and is regarded as the creator of a new, more modern method of directing armies in the field. In essence, he broke down four types of officers into this chart.
Another military officer, Von Hammerstein-Equord who supposedly adapted this classification system. Lazy but brilliant is an excellent way to approach marketing.
Challenge ways of working - do I really need to be on insert latest social media channel here?
Simplify - communicate with the right people in the right way and forget the rest.
Delegate - having trouble? Ask an arts marketer for help!
Work smart not hard.
Only do what counts. Choose the best bets.
Bigger picture -that’s you! Document your work and get people excited about the work you do every day to build anticipation for the final product.
