Hello Folks -
Over the last couple of issues, we looked at some different marketing
programs to consider when writing your marketing plans. Today's focus is
on implementation, one of the most critical aspects of
marketing.
In "Marketing - The Next Level," Dave Collins of
SharewarePromotions Ltd. explains a bit about the definition of
marketing and how to approach it. That is, with a consumer
focus. "It's not about what you're trying to sell, it's about
who you're trying to sell it to, what they want from you, and
how to give it them."
"Marketing - All About Focus" gives some tips about
problems that happen with applying marketing
strategy to the real world. In both articles, Dave uses
marketing software as an example, but you'll find that the
principals apply equally well to your own products or services.
St. Louis Seminar: Frugal, Grassroots Book Marketing and Sunday Dinner with Shel
Horowitz
Shel Howoritz, one of the best-known authorities on
affordable, effective marketing is coming to St. Louis on
Sunday, May 15 to give his grassroots marketing seminar. Shel's
third marketing book, Grassroots Marketing: Getting Noticed
in a Noisy World, was a finalist for ForeWord Magazines Book
of the Year Award. His fourth marketing book, Principled
Profit: Marketing That Puts People First, became a top-10
best seller on Amazon.com.
The seminar is sponsored by the St. Louis Publishers
Association (SLPA), and will focus on book marketing. Many of
the Internet
marketing methods, however, can be applied to other industries. You
can find seminar and dinner details at
http://www.websitemarketingplan.com/grassroots.htm. There is
an early bird discount until tomorrow (Thursday, May 5).
I am Webmaster for SLPA, so will be working the
event. Hope to see you there.
Enjoy!

"Marketing - The Next Level" by
Dave Collins
http://www.websitemarketingplan.com/Arts/marketing-nextlevel.htm
excerpt: "...marketing is not advertising. It's about finding
out who you're trying to sell to, what exactly they want from
you, and how to give it to them. It's that simple.
But to ignore marketing is more than dangerous; it's
downright stupid. Don't make the mistake of assuming that good
sales mean that you're already carrying out sufficient
marketing. Without seeing where you stand, and what may be
around the corner, you're effectively 100% blind, both to
opportunities and threats, and won't even notice when they pass
you by or hit you in the face."
"Marketing - All About Focus" by Dave Collins
http://www.websitemarketingplan.com/Arts/marketing-focus.htm
excerpt: "...one of the main problems with marketing is that
while it makes complete sense when reading about it, applying it
to the real world can often prove to be a different matter. One
of the simplest and most effective ways to do so is to focus on
the consumer.
How to attract new customers to your product and website is
the constant quandary of many businesses, small or large."
