Four Ways to Change Your Perspective About How to Win at Marketing
Growth marketing takes skill, practice, and luck – done well, it will drive extraordinary change for your organization. Here are a few best practices that shed light on what is possible in the marketing world and the impact your marketing can have outside of your discrete campaigns.
- Bring your audience along on the journey. Rather than marketing “to” someone, think of your marketing as an offering you’re crafting for them. Put differently, lead with the value you’re giving your audience. When you do, you’re bound to make a strong impression that says more than “they’re selling me something I’m not sure I need.”
- Innovation counts – no matter how big a player you are. Some years, a marketing team might be satisfied with a pithy round of promotional emails and boilerplate ads. However, we urge you to avoid growing complacent about what has always worked in the past. Even established brands need to innovate.
- Authentic marketing is bulletproof marketing. If you and your team don’t believe in what you’re promoting, your audience will sniff out your lack of sincerity. Plus, marketing a product or service you love and have faith in feels good and will keep you motivated.
- Trust that your customer will reciprocate with you. It takes time and resources to create value-adding content marketing. However, when you put in the work, you can build customer trust and engage in two-way information sharing with your audience. Solicit their data at just the right moments, and you give your customer permission to enter your sphere of influence. After all, the more you know about them, the more effectively you can tailor your brand, deals, promotions, messaging, and more.
