Marketing 2005
OK, if you're not going to hire me to develop your 2005 marketing communication plan for you I have a few suggestions that you may not have considered as part of your marketing arsenal.
Of course, you already have a company name, a positioning statement, logo, stationery, business cards and a website. Right?
The next thing I suggest is an employee survey. Ask them about what's happening where the company meets the customer. Find out how employees feel about the company. A recent survey shows that employee attitudes have a huge impact upon a company's bottom line. Motivated employees provide great service, and great service can separate you from your competitors.
Next, develop a customer retention program. It costs five times more to develop a new customer as it does to keep an old one. E-newsletters are an essential part of my customer retention program. Sign up for my e-newsletter at http://www.hoover-ink.com.
Finally, here is a random
list of other items that can be considered part of your marketing arsenal.
- your reputation - advertising - consultations, demonstrations, seminars, samples - community involvement, cause marketing, philanthropy - media contacts, bylined articles, op-ed pieces - guest speaking program - great working environment - employee development program - networking, referrals - contests - customer surveys - special events
If your time for 2005 marketing related tasks is limited, take some advice from my marketing mentor: pick three things from above and do them right.
