I work with a lot with many small businesses - most days of the week! Here is some advice if you are starting up or wanting to stay ahead of the game on the marketing front:-
- Have crystal clear and concise messaging
- Don’t give too much information away - concentrate on the benefits for your customers not you!
- Don’t strictly target your product or service – leave the door open for your customers
- Be clearly differentiated from your competition – seduce your customers with something unique to you and your business (not literally of course!)
- Have memorable marketing
- Be proud of your business
- Talk to a professional - we love to talk - but we have real eyes and we watch out for those all important customer and consumer insights!
