Ten Tall Tales of Traditional Marketing #3
"Ten Tall Tales of Traditional Marketing That Cost You Tons"
Tall Tale #3 “Get your message in front of as many people as possible”
Get it out there. Plaster it everywhere. Slap it on the side of a bus. Paint it on a park bench. Cover your car in it. Shout it from the highest mountain top. Do what ever you have to, but get it out in front of as many people as possible.
WRONG…WRONG…WRONG…WRONG…WRONG!
Market yourself this way and you’ll be spending countless hours on your efforts. You’ll be wasting precious time and energy on avenues that never bear fruit and will be speaking to people who aren’t listening and probably even annoying the crap out of them. Ultimately, you will burn yourself out in an exhaustive effort that yields absolutely zero. Yep, I said it…Zero, Zip, Nada, Nothing. If you are one of the many who buys into this philosophy you are most likely already sitting on a curb somewhere huffing and puffing with exhaustion. You are feeling like a candle burning wicks on both ends and just want to throw in the towel on this marketing stuff. But you can’t. It’s your business’ livelihood at stake. What other option do you have? There is ONE!
Now you know that you can not spend this much time creating and managing marketing messages and delivering them to the far reaches of the planet. You have a business to take care of – or have you forgotten? It’s easy to get wrapped up in the perceived glamour of the marketing and advertising of process, but it’s something you have to avoid at all costs. Your time is the single most precious asset your company has and its miss use is the reason why more businesses go under faster than the R.M.S. Lusitania.
So, if not “get your message out in front of as many people as possible,” what do you do? Get it out in front of the right
people, the right way, many, many times. The Golden Snitch of this grueling game is caught by doing two things: Planning and Targeting.
Creating a game plan…you’ve heard the coaches say it umpteen times. But they are on to something…they have a playbook and they stick to it. Even if times get tough they still go to the trusty playbook. You need a playbook and you need to know which players to put on the field for each play. This takes an in-depth knowledge of the advertising and marketing playing field to figure out. It would take you ages to learn it all, study courses, undergraduate and graduate degrees, theses, trial and error, market studies and more. Did you forget you had business to take care of, again?
Don’t worry! We’ve done all that crazy, hard stuff for you. Use our “Gravitational Marketing Road Map” and it will show you the SIMPLE way to create your very own marketing playbook and help you identify which advertisements to put on the field and when and how to execute the plays effectively. It’s one handy little tool to have around.
Tomorrow we’ll show you how you’re wasting tons of dough in lost revenues by trying to under cut your competition all over a sliver of market share.
