Your 2017 Marketing Planning and Budget Strategy – Campaign Identification

One aspect of your marketing campaigns should be the identification of the strategic marketing campaigns you’re going to launch.  Truthfully, most organizations omit several marketing campaigns, not purposefully, nonetheless omission means prospective leads not getting the attention they need.  Therefore, we need to close the gap on leaving leads exposed for falling through the cracks.

  1. Instill set processes from which to work
  2. Hold your team accountable for tasks and action items
  3. Increase the knowledge of your team
  4. Help you carry out the vision for your company
  5. Help you solve your marketing problem

Watch the video as we explain more.

Marketing Management identifies market opportunities and comes out with appropriate strategies for exploring those opportunities profitably.

It has to implement marketing programme and evaluate continuously the effectiveness of marketing-mix. It has to remove the deficiencies observed in the actual execution of marketing plans, policies, and procedures. It looks after the marketing system of the enterprise.  This understanding can serve two objectives. First, it will help them obtain new insights from the experiences they will be acquir­ing on the job in the future. Inevitably they will develop from experience some such structure to serve this crucial need anyway, so they can profit from new experience and new knowledge. To acquire such a structure from experience alone, however, is a slow and often uncertain process. Formal education can help them to speed this up so they grow in marketing skill much faster.

When it comes to creating a resume, it’s important to use resume buzz words that will catch the attention of recruiters and hiring managers and help you stand out from the competition.

Nurture Marketing Strategies – Common Nurture Marketing Mistakes

This month, we are going to kick off our Nurture Marketing Series.  We’re going to answer specific questions about how and why you should institute nurture marketing within your organization.  In our marketing process – generate, capture, store, and nurture, we’re going to focus on just the “Nurture” portion of our process.

So, follow us on this 4-part series where Andrew Houglum – the CTO, Dustin Fickbohm – the COO, and me, Granison Shines – the CMO, talk about how Nurture Marketing can help grow your business.
Nurture Marketing involves reaching out to your prospects and clients on a regular basis, touching them via marketing mediums, feeding them the information they need about your business, educating them on various topics regarding your products or services, making them feel good about your business, and building a stronger relationship with them.

You can use any medium you’d like to share this information including, but not limited to: email, video, newsletters, postcards, etc.

Today we discuss the common nurture marketing mistakes and how you can avoid them.

Nurture Marketing Mistake #1 – Frequency
Not nurture marketing enough is just as bad as over-nurturing.  It’s perfectly fine to add leads and clients to your nurture marketing campaign, but organizations should take heed to how often they send out email.  In one case, Dustin says he’d gotten 91 nurture marketing email in 26 days.  In our opinion, that’s way too many.

Nurture Marketing Mistake #2 – Heavily Ladened Graphic Emails  
Don’t get it twisted, there’s nothing wrong with sending graphics in your emails.  What we watch for is that it’s too intense.  One has to be mindful as to what technology their leads and clients are viewing their email.  One of your views could see your email with their device and it could not be as graphic or video friendly as you might think.  Therefore, sending emails that are not graphically intense is a good way to go.

Nurture Marketing Mistake #3 – Not Personalizing the Emails
Many studies have shown that personalization of emails, especially in the subject line, is a good way to get your email opened.  People like to addressed “personally” and giving your emails the appearance of such endeavors can create a better feeling of comradery.

At the very least, your organization should keep in touch with the leads in your existing database by keeping leads on an Annual Nurture campaign.  For that reason, you can download our “Done-for-You!” Annual Nurture Marketing Campaign here – https://directbusinessmarketing.com/nurture/
