KEY TAKEAWAYS
There are points in business where everything can be a struggle and you can’t get to where you want to be.
At times like this there is a tendency to make big changes when what is required are small changes that help you to understand your audience.
It’s not that what you have to offer isn’t valuable, it can be that you are not communicating that value to your prospective clients.
They are not seeing the value because you are not talking their language.
You need to know what problem you are solving, how you are solving it and how easy is it for the client to understand that in your marketing message.
You should be purpose centric - ensuring that you are leading the businesses purpose from the clients perspective.
There is a lot of noise across social media platforms so how are you going to stand out? The key is to create relationships with your prospective client and customer.
You need to nurture and create more touch points in the journey. This requires more effort but usually results in a better client or customer who will remain with you over time.
If you make too many big changes it can be difficult to understand what has made the difference.
Making small changes means you can analyse what is working and how your clients feel.
What value are you providing so your prospective client can get to know you better?
People don’t buy when they understand you they buy when you understand them.
The’ know’,’ like’ and ‘trust’ factors are key in the process.
It is easy to get emotionally attached to your business but having an open policy of listening to customers is a positive way to influence the marketing of your message.
Listening to those who help within your business provides a valuable and different insight because they work in differing areas and can offer different perspectives.
What messaging are you putting out there is it client centric?
Is it using your clients language?
Is it easy to identify what you are offering?
If they don’t understand the value they won’t be buying.
