Marketing is essentially: • Creating a desire for your product, and • Getting your message across in the most cost-efficient ways possible
What are your product's strong points and how can they help you cross the line between a need and a desire on your customer's part? • A need is practical, realistic. • A desire fulfilled gives pleasure to the customer.
How visible will you be? • Yellow Pages of telephone directory? • Classified ad sections in newspapers? • Other appropriate business directories?
How will you reach out? • Newspaper ads? • TV ads? • Telephone marketing? • Direct sales calls? • Direct mail? • Handouts? • Decals, stickers, giveaways? • Special events and promotions? • Radio ads? • Posters, banners?
Much depends on the intensity, effectiveness and constancy of your outreach to identified customers.
