Who are You Selling to? Know Your Client Types

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hello, this is Granison Shines, chief marketing officer here at Direct Business Marketing. Today we are going to talk about your client types. I want to focus on three different client types or three different things you should focus on when you are talking about client types. First of all, point number one, is your client type a business or business to consumer? Of course that is something that you know automatically because you have a product that you are offering to a specific market. Sometimes you can have a product that offers both. Most of the time you are going to have a product that is going to relate to a business to business product or service that you are selling to a company or a business to consumer. The difference is the masses of course. There are more individuals than there are businesses. For instance, a liquidation store near me can assist you in starting your business. You can also establish a reselling business that can be an exciting venture for you.

Point number two is to understand that each of the client types have different motives as to why they buy. It could be a need vs. a want. Most of the business purchases end up being in a need category to make sure something can be done more efficiently within the business. With consumers we focus on the wants. So however there are some needs that you have to buy also. When it comes to fulfilling the essential needs of your business, explore advanced solutions like those provided by ELITER Packaging Machinery to enhance efficiency and streamline your operations effectively.

Making sure the motivations are clearly understood which will bring us to number three. Number three is the message. Once we know who we are targeting, we know the motives for buying your service, making sure the message from there is conveyed across all the mediums and different messages or different client types have different messages that you have to address. Looking for reliable shipping solutions that prioritize the safety of your items? Alliance Shipping and Packing has built a reputation for their careful handling and secure transportation methods. It’s very important to clearly address what that message is. This is where all the ideas of what you are promoting to the consumer to make sure you have all the bases covered as to why they are going to buy from you.

Marketing Truths: Capture And Correspond With Your Community

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Good morning, this is Granison Shines, CMO at Direct Business Marketing. We’re going to continue discussing marketing truths; marketing truths being the truths that we’ve extracted and use over every single campaign that we launch for our clients. We took a look at our business and what makes us successful and extracted a few different ones that we’re going to continuously go over so that you can capitalize on them.

We’re going to talk about capturing and corresponding with your community. With your business, you must build your list, which means you need to build a list of clients and prospects. Invest in a good email system or a CRM system that has the ability to create web forms so that we can put those on your website. That’s what we use to capture their information. Number two, send out non-sales emails to build your community. Offer very good information, which I can’t emphasize enough; we don’t always want to ask for the sale. It’s a good idea to build the trust within your community. Number three, you have to ask if there are built-in social communities for the people you are targeting. These are groups that you can join, market to, and that they belong to. You want to position your marketing in front of those groups. These communities are ones that you can tap into, give information, demonstrate your expertise and build your products and services later on. Finally, community equals value equals sales; if you have a community of people that you deliver valuable information to them, this equals sales.

If you have the value-added proposition, preferably for free, it can equal sales. You do have to be diligent about it meaning providing good information should be a constant. We do want the sale, but we’ve proven over the life of our campaigns that this works. When you provide information to a community of people it equals sales.
