May '10: Building your unique business brand

In This Issue

 
 

Building powerful branding for your business

 

I can't stress enough how important it is for your business to have a 'brand' - to stand for something significant.

Without it, you're just a bland 'me too' with nothing to bond your clients and customers to you. Give them the first chance - and a lower price - and they'll be off!

In tough times, it's essential that you make it abundantly clear why people should be doing business with YOU!

Have fun. Best regards, Vanessa Lanham-Day

Understanding your customers

 

According to AdMan Peter Druckner, ‘the aim of marketing is to know and understand your customer so well that the product or service fits him perfectly and sells itself.’

You need to think like your customer. You have to understand your customer – get inside their head.

Making it count - converting your marketing into business!

 

You MUST create momentum for your marketing to count. Doing bits and pieces here and there will never be fully effective – as Gary Herbert, the great Ad man used to say – Motion beats meditation!

And to gain momentum, you have to take ACTION.
