How We Work

You get a consultative approach to your assignments

Here’s what you can expect by contracting with Fulcrum resources. Depending upon the scope of your assignment, we do our homework by getting to know your customer, your products, your selling processes, your database and any test results. This review alone almost always uncovers ways to increase your ROI. The steps we typically take when getting up to speed on your assignment 1 Customer profiling :- The first step often includes a complete customer profile analysis by overlaying your present customer database with third party data including demographics, lifestyle and behavior files. 2 Response data:- forensics By analyzing your past direct marketing results, we create offers and new single channel or multi-channel test programs that are designed to beat the response of your present most successful direct response programs (that is, your controls). 3 Creative development:- For creative assignments, we first write a comprehensive creative strategy document for your review. This incorporates the offer, product benefits, testimonials, answers to the top three customer objections and other information the creative team needs to create your new winners. 4 Financial pro:– forma Before we embark on a direct marketing program, we develop a financial pro forma that incorporates your allowable cost per lead or cost per sale. 5 We can act as an extension of your staff:- Some suppliers call this partnering with the client. But we really cannot partner with clients in the classic sense as stockholders. But we are “stakeholders.” This simply means that as consultants, what we do after the program runs separates us from advertising agencies. We look at the total selling process looking for barriers that are affecting response rates. This might include a selling cycle audit where we examine the steps leading up to a sale. We begin with the customer’s first response and tabulate every step. We then submit a report to you with our recommendations for both sales improvement and new selling opportunities.
 
Our clients turn to Fulcrum for a variety of services depending upon their needs. These services usually include one of the following areas of direct response activities. Direct marketing program assessments Direct mail, email, telemarketing script, fieldwork,  advertising and other creative development incorporating concept development, copywriting to final art Test programs for B2C and B2B lead generation Marketing planning and implementation Database setup, planning and implementation Conducting in-house brainstorming sessions Proposal development for advertising agency direct response presentations Face to face consulting to share direct marketing expertise Total direct marketing program leadership The Fulcrum compensation offers maximum flexibility for your projects. Ad Hoc Basis For short-term projects or for clients who are not yet interested in an ongoing commitment, Fulcrum offers a flat fee based on the projected hours required to complete your project. By project This most often includes a marketing plan and a creative assignment, like a new direct mail package or a series of emails or telemarketing scripts. A set fee is agreed upon at the beginning of the project. More and more clients are asking for general direct marketing consultation. The deliverables sometimes take the form of a written assessment presented to your team in PowerPoint format. These assignments usually evolve into an extended agreement or a direct marketing audit. Extended Term Agreement If your programs are ongoing and you need longer term planning and implementation support, then Fulcrum will prepare a long term agreement for your consideration. The proposal includes a thorough description of the services provided, the goals of the relationship and a monthly fee. The fee reflects a projection of the scope of the assignment. Some of these extended agreements may last no more than four months while others extend beyond one year. Subcontracted work Most projects undertaken by Fulcrum require the services of suppliers, specialists, printers, lettershops, data analysts, compilers, telesales firms, mailing list companies and other subcontracted support to complete client approved direct marketing programs. These subcontractors are paid by Fulcrum on the client’s behalf. In some cases, the logistics require direct payment by the client to contractors hired by Fulcrum. Depending upon the assignment, Fulcrum includes a commission in its supplier estimates and referrals for client work. Creative development process First, you tell us about the project and we give you an estimate. With your approval, you will need to send us background information or put us in touch with people who can provide that information. Then we’ll write a draft for your review. If you’re using one of our graphic designers, we will also provide initial design at this stage. With your feedback on our draft, we’ll provide a revised version of the creative. How many revisions do you get? We don’t put a limit on revisions because we want you completely satisfied. Historically, the number of edits for our creative work averages 1-3. We know you’ll have revisions — maybe more than a few. But we do not charge for revisions unless you decide to change the direction of the project.

Feet On Street Marketing companies in navi mumbai

Becoming Marketing Active: The Fulcrum Guide to Getting Started with Business Marketing –  In the first part of our guide to becoming marketing active Feet On Street Marketing companies in navi mumbai, we looked at some of the reasons that drive a business to start marketing (if you missed part one, check it out here). But once you’ve made the decision to embark on a marketing strategy for your business, what next? Where do you start and what steps should you take to ensure a smooth and successful process? As is so often the case in business (and life!), preparation is key. So before rushing into any kind of marketing, it’s important to take the time to plan, research and strategise for success. In order to create an effective marketing strategy, you need to develop a thorough understanding of your market, your competitors and your business itself. This means getting back to basics and equipping yourself with all the information you need to identify marketing activities that work for your brand. 1) Research your target market How much do you know about the target audience of your product or service? We’re not just talking about age, sex or occupation (though, of course, you need to know these too). To have the best chance of reaching your target market, you need to dig deeper and find out exactly what drives them towards purchase. What kind of triggers are they most likely to respond to? Which elements of the marketing mix have the most impact on them? How will your product or service benefit them? Understanding these aspects of your target audience will enable you to position and market your brand accordingly, so comprehensive market research is essential. It’s often easier (and more cost-effective) to outsource this type of research to a professional agency who will be better placed to obtain the information you need. 2) Analyse your competition In order to stay ahead of your competitors, you need to know who they are, what they’re doing and how they’re doing it. Once you’ve identified who your key business competitors are, look into the marketing methods they’re using and the way in which they have positioned their brand. What channels and platforms have they chosen to market their business? How are they promoting their brand and its products/services? Consider which elements are crucial to your own business and how you can position your brand in order to get ahead. 3) Define your objectives What do you want to achieve from your marketing activity? Whether it’s to increase your revenue, establish your business in a new market segment or improve brand awareness, setting clear, measurable marketing objectives is vital in understanding what steps need to be taken in order to achieve these goals. Make sure that each identified objective is specific (how much do you want to increase revenue by?), achievable (is it realistic?) and has a timeframe for accomplishment (are you aiming to achieve this goal in three months or a year?). You also need to make sure that your marketing objectives tie in with your overall business objectives. 4) Understand your business You may think you have a pretty good understanding of your business, but it’s surprising what insights can be achieved when you conduct a thorough SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats). Be rigorous, be meticulous, and above all be brutally honest. Is a lack of staff training letting your business down? Are your prices too high to compete in today’s market? Arming yourself with this knowledge is invaluable in developing a marketing strategy that leverages your company’s strengths and addresses those areas which need to be improved. In the next instalment of the Fulcrum guide to becoming marketing active, we’ll be looking at the raft of marketing channels available and helping you to identify which ones are best for your business. If you have something to share on this topic, why not get in touch? Leave your comments below…

How to Create a Profitable Sales Funnel

Your book, The Leaky Funnel, is based on what you call — Funnel Logic. Can you briefly describe it?

 Funnel Logic is a sales and marketing management and planning system used to increase prospect progression through the sales funnel, and improve sales and marketing effectiveness. It is a “belief system” built upon four key principles relating to how sales and marketing are conducted in the best-run businesses. Firstly, the combined sales and marketing function should build its activities around the buyer’s journey; not the sales cycle. Secondly, how many prospects will progress through each of these stages of this journey over time? Thirdly, what tactics will be used to cause this progression? And finally, the actual progression should be measured, so that tactics that work can be bolstered, and those which do not can be shelved.

 What is the ‘buyer’s journey.’ What do you mean by that?

Business buyers go through a process as they buy. They start off untroubled and unaware — even complacent — and then at some point, they become troubled. Once they’ve acknowledged their problem, they decide what they need to solve that problem. They then make their preferences, receive proposals and, ultimately, select a vendor, sign a contract and engage. We call this the buyer’s journey.

What are the stages of the buyer’s journey?  It is important to remember that businesses don’t just wake up in the morning and decide to purchase something. They take a journey:
  • It starts with being Positioned in Category which means the buyer knows you are one of the businesses who sells a particular product or service.
  • Then Interest Established: The buyer has done something (called, clicked etc.) to show they are interested.
  • Gap Acknowledged: The buyer will acknowledge that a problem exists.
  • Need Agreed: The buyer agrees what they need, even if they are not sure who to choose.
  • Offer Understood: The buyer knows what we are proposing to do to meet that need.
  • Preference Formed: The buyer prefers our solution.
  • Decision Made: The buyer moves to contract.
By structuring your sales and marketing around the buyer’s journey, your focus is on helping them move through each stage.  So, the problem you solve for buyers is key. How do you choose which problems to focus on?

The challenge is to identify a buyer problem that you are strong at solving, and one that you can solve better than your competitors. This ‘feeling out’ process is all about finding a problem that is worth focusing on and that you solve well. If you are good at solving buyer problems that are not rewarding, you will major in the minors. On the other hand, if you are focusing on the right problem but from a position of weakness, you will not be able to rival your competition.

Once you’ve picked a single problem, should that influence your sales and marketing strategy?

Simply, yes. In identifying your buyer’s problem, you are able to clearly define three key aspects of your sales and marketing function. Firstly, what your business is selling is now a clear solution to a problem. Secondly, who you are selling to, becomes who has the problem. And thirdly, how you will reach your buyers, translates to, what is the channel that uncovers the problem? This basically turns our thinking inside out:

Once you’ve formulated your strategy, how do you develop an action plan?

Once you have turned your strategy inside-out, it is time to translate this strategy into action. In order to do this effectively you must select tactics to help these potential buyers recognize that they have this problem. However, your strategy does not translate into action…yet; because our tactics are often arbitrary. I say this because businesses will often select tactics on the strength of; they worked last year, or it seems to work for our competitors, or we’ve always done it this way. I present an alternative. Remembering the buyer’s journey, you must select tactics that will progress buyers through that journey; through each stage.

 What about volume? How do you work out the number of buyers you actually need to progress?

 Trying to calculate the number of buyers you actually need is a valid pursuit, however it can be a trap. When doing this, you must keep two things in mind: buyers need time to progress (take their journey) and your tactics need to be repeated several times to have an effect (“one-hit-wonders” rarely do the job). Marketing teams are always geared for success, but it is often how they capitalise on failure that makes them rich. If you start with a simple numerical model mapping your prospective buyers progressing along their journey — importantly remembering to allow for leakage at each stage — you quickly realise two scary realities:

A vast majority of initial leads will leak at some stage along the journey, so doesn’t it make sense to have a proper recycling program?; and Shouldn’t we have some idea of the effect of recycling before we plan a demand generation campaign?

Given this, in order to work out exactly how many buyers you will need, you need to recycle all the “leaked” buyers back into your funnel and re-run the model. Decide how much of the total revenue Marketing is to contribute and then adjust your top-of-funnel number until the “customer” (converted buyers) number will contribute the desired revenue outcome.

 And once you know how many buyers you need to progress, how do you actually get them moving?

Ultimately, what you are trying to achieve is to nurture your buyers along their journey. In order to do this, you need tactics that move your buyers through your funnel from stage to stage. In a practical sense, you must initially identify buyers who meet your target profile, position your brand on their list and get their attention, convince these businesses to accept they have the problem you solve best, gain acceptance and backing of your own solution and then move to contract.

 What are some examples of progression tactics that are suitable for small businesses?

 There are many tactics that will work just as well for big business as they will for small operators. As your goal for progression is to keep doing the small rhythmic tasks that keep the prospect aware of how you can solve their problem; something as simple as a monthly email or blog article will have the same effect no matter what size the business. It is likely that your financial position or operational capability will dictate what is actually possible. Investigate options for each stage of your buyer’s journey; here are some common tactics:

  • Get known by making sure all the key bloggers mention you and the problem you solve.
  • Trouble buyers by asking tough questions on your website and in meetings.
  • Agree the need by providing a template showing typical buyer needs.
  • Confirm your buyer’s situation, problem and need by email after meeting.
  • Build this whole journey (situation, problem, need and solution) into your proposal in case there are others involved in the buying process.
  • For all buyers who leak (at any stage) recycle and nurture using regular email and thought leadership.
How do you see social media? What new tactics work for B2B?

The marketing benefits of social media are just now beginning to become apparent. While there has been endless conjecture surrounding the ways in which social media is going to revolutionise the way we market products and services, the initial hype is beginning to turn into some sort of reality. As this is a small business forum, let’s consider some relevant B2B uses for various forms of social media. Blogging, micro-blogging (Twitter) and video blogging (YouTube) are great ways to position and even trouble business buyers on a shoestring.

 What about buyers who fail to progress?

 It is often the small percentage of successful lead conversions that get all our attention — while the other, much higher, percentage that leaked gets forgotten. Adopting tactics that recycle those who have already leaked, in order to assist nurturing tactics that stem the leakage, can turn neglected prospects into future customers. Recycling tactics handle those buyers who fail to progress — the leakage; these tactics ready a buyer for re-entry into the funnel. While these leads are in the funnel, specific nurturing tactics keep the buyer from leaking. Having captured the buyer’s details, relevant and rhythmic eDM, Tele-nurturing and RSS updates will keep your name and your solution at the front of the buyer’s mind.

 What would you say is key to successfully executing tactics?

 To help your buyers move along their journey, down the funnel, you have to execute the correct tactics at the correct time; however, as we have already agreed there is always going to be leakage. When executing tactics, the key to success is rhythm — if you can manage tactics in a way that will take advantage of ’leakage’ whilst nurturing leads still in your funnel, success will come. If you can reach a point where you have a sound grasp of your buyer’s journey, Sales and Marketing are on the same page tactically and your tactics for progression are working — it is now time to focus on obtaining good momentum that  allows for recycled leads to be rhythmically nurtured, even if a little at a time. In B2B marketing, I like to use the term ‘corkscrew’ to refer to a tactic (or series of tactics) that you can execute over and again, knowing that while the buyer will only drop into your funnel occasionally, every time you twist the corkscrew, you are moving them along — a little.

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Image_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

Door-to-door marketing is a canvassing technique that is generally used for sales, marketing, advertising, or campaigning, in which the person or persons walk from the door of one house to the door of another, trying to sell or advertise a product or service to the general public or gather information. People who use this sales approach are often called traveling salesmen, or the archaic name drummer, to “drum up” business. This technique is also sometimes called direct sales. A variant of this involves cold calling first, when another sales representative attempts to gain agreement that a salesperson should visit.

With the realization of telephone “Do Not Call” lists it is becoming increasingly more difficult to connect with consumers and business people. An emerging trend is the deployment of very professional, highly skilled door-to-door canvassers to drive product sales and brand awareness.

Coordinating, training and motivating these teams to produce results are at the very core of Fulcrum’s proven capabilities. Fulcrum has the knowledge and experience required to implement these programs, such as best days and times to canvass, who will sell the most product; male, female, young or mature and what geographics and demographics respond best to door-to-door marketing. Put Fulcrum’s experience to work for you and avoid the costly mistakes of trying to manage these programs in-house.


Hire and Train Door-to-Door Marketing Team

If you’re in charge of hiring people, that typically means that you’ve found success in Door To Door Marketing yourself. You know what it takes to be great, but now you’re stuck with an entirely new problem. How do you find others who will be just as good (if not better) and will stick around and grow into important influencers invested in the long term growth of the company? A great D2D sales company is a great recruiting company. So what does that greatness look like?

First off, you need to realize that you’re not going to hire a superstar every time. If you think you have found one, be careful. It’s not hard for someone to seem golden during one interview and you don’t want to be fooled.

Even if you think the candidate does have a lot of great experience working in the field for other companies, you have to realize that success doesn’t always translate. What worked for them at previous companies probably won’t work as well for you. In fact, their success will probably make them stubborn; after all, what reason do they have to follow your approach when they’ve figured out their own?

It’s also possible that the rep’s previous company might have had much better-developed training and selling systems than you do, and that system was the key reason they killed it. If you’re not developing a competitive system, what does that communicate about your company? The more dialed-in you are about a rep’s success, the more likely you are to attract and keep strong performers.

Tips For Kid-Friendly Experiential Marketing Events

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Headline_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

Make it Informative and Entertaining

Parents are the ones who will decide whether or not their kids attend a branded event. Ideally, parents would like to bring their kids to events that are not only entertaining, but also educational or beneficial to their child’s growth in some way. Brands should make an effort to emphasize the educational opportunities that kids will have at their event so parents know exactly how their kids will benefit from attending.

If your event is not educational, it’s important to emphasize other ways in which kids will benefit from the activities. For example, painting and sculpting may not be seen as educational opportunities, but these two activities can help kids tap into their creative sides and explore their talents. So, even though kids won’t necessarily be learning anything from painting and playing with clay, parents should still be able to see how attending this event could be beneficial to their children.

Entertain Mom and Dad

Marketers who are planning an event for kids often forget that kids will not be the only ones in attendance. Parents or guardians usually attend events with their children, so marketers will need to figure out a way to keep them engaged throughout the event.

Many brands set up separate areas within the event so parents and kids can each partake in different activities. However, some experts believe that this is not the right approach to take when planning an event for kids. These experts cite research that states many parents have a “Velcro mentality,” which means they want to stick by their kids’ sides and experience things together. Marketers can make parents with this mentality happy by planning events that allow parents and kids to engage in different activities together. Don’t expect parents to stand on the sidelines and watch their kids have all of the fun—parents want to be involved, too.

Choose the Right Brand Ambassadors

Brand ambassadors can make or break your event—especially if it’s a kid-friendly activation. The ambassadors that you choose must be able to relate to both parents and children so they can engage with every guest at the event. Some children can be shy, especially when talking to adults, so the brand ambassadors must have a knack for drawing kids out of their shell. A lot of kids are also incredibly intuitive when it comes to reading people. These children will be able to tell right away if something is not being authentic, which is why it’s so important to choose the right ambassadors.

Brand ambassadors should also be trained to encourage parents and kids to try activities together. Parents may be hesitant to participate in certain activities, so they may need a bit of encouragement from friendly brand representatives.

Technology is Not Necessary

Technology is almost always incorporated into events that are targeting adult consumers. However, experts say that technology is not always a must-have for kid-friendly events. The younger the targeted audience is for the event, the less necessary technology may become.

If technology seamlessly fits into the plans for the event, then it’s perfectly fine for marketers to incorporate it into scheduled activities. But if it doesn’t, then there’s no reason to try to make it work. In fact, experts suggest that parents may prefer a technology-free event because it forces everyone to put their phones away and focus on spending time with one another.

If you want to encourage guests to share photos and videos on social media, set up a photo booth with branded props. Parents will love the idea of taking family photos, especially if there are props that kids can have fun with, so they will be eager to share these images on their social media pages. This is a simple way to incorporate technology into kid-friendly events without going overboard.

Design With Durability in Mind

There’s a reason playground equipment is made out of heavy plastics instead of glass—plastic is a durable and safe material that kids can play on without getting hurt. Keep this in mind when designing the details of your event. Kids are not careful—especially when they are having fun and running around with friends and family—so make sure everything is designed with their safety in mind. Avoid sharp edges and slippery surfaces, and be sure to keep the aisles wide so parents pushing strollers can easily make it through. If there are potential hazards at your event, be sure to post adequate warnings and hire people to watch over the guests. For example, if your event’s venue has a swimming pool, hire lifeguards to stand by to ensure that everyone is safe and abiding by the rules.

Encourage Friendly Competition

Kids love a little friendly competition, so find a way to incorporate this into your event. Give kids the opportunity to challenge their friends, siblings, and parents to compete against them in various activities. For instance, let’s say you are planning an event with a fun obstacle course for kids. Instead of simply letting kids complete the obstacle course on their own, turn it into a competition where kids can challenge each other to see who makes it through the course the fastest. Kids love to compete, so adding a competitive element to the activities at your event can keep guests engaged.

Door-to-door marketing is a canvassing technique that is generally used for sales, marketing, advertising, or campaigning, in which the person or persons walk from the door of one house to the door of another, trying to sell or advertise a product or service to the general public or gather information. People who use this sales approach are often called traveling salesmen, or the archaic name drummer, to “drum up” business. This technique is also sometimes called direct sales. A variant of this involves cold calling first, when another sales representative attempts to gain agreement that a salesperson should visit.

With the realization of telephone “Do Not Call” lists it is becoming increasingly more difficult to connect with consumers and business people. An emerging trend is the deployment of very professional, highly skilled door-to-door canvassers to drive product sales and brand awareness.

Coordinating, training and motivating these teams to produce results are at the very core of Fulcrum’s proven capabilities. Fulcrum has the knowledge and experience required to implement these programs, such as best days and times to canvass, who will sell the most product; male, female, young or mature and what geographics and demographics respond best to door-to-door marketing. Put Fulcrum’s experience to work for you and avoid the costly mistakes of trying to manage these programs in-house.


Hire and Train Door-to-Door Marketing Team

If you’re in charge of hiring people, that typically means that you’ve found success in Door To Door Marketing yourself. You know what it takes to be great, but now you’re stuck with an entirely new problem. How do you find others who will be just as good (if not better) and will stick around and grow into important influencers invested in the long term growth of the company? A great D2D sales company is a great recruiting company. So what does that greatness look like?

First off, you need to realize that you’re not going to hire a superstar every time. If you think you have found one, be careful. It’s not hard for someone to seem golden during one interview and you don’t want to be fooled.

Even if you think the candidate does have a lot of great experience working in the field for other companies, you have to realize that success doesn’t always translate. What worked for them at previous companies probably won’t work as well for you. In fact, their success will probably make them stubborn; after all, what reason do they have to follow your approach when they’ve figured out their own?

It’s also possible that the rep’s previous company might have had much better-developed training and selling systems than you do, and that system was the key reason they killed it. If you’re not developing a competitive system, what does that communicate about your company? The more dialed-in you are about a rep’s success, the more likely you are to attract and keep strong performers.

Becoming Marketing Active: The Fulcrum Guide to Getting Started with Business Marketing –  In the first part of our guide to becoming marketing active Street Marketing agent in navi mumbai, we looked at some of the reasons that drive a business to start marketing (if you missed part one, check it out here). But once you’ve made the decision to embark on a marketing strategy for your business, what next? Where do you start and what steps should you take to ensure a smooth and successful process? As is so often the case in business (and life!), preparation is key. So before rushing into any kind of marketing, it’s important to take the time to plan, research and strategise for success. In order to create an effective marketing strategy, you need to develop a thorough understanding of your market, your competitors and your business itself. This means getting back to basics and equipping yourself with all the information you need to identify marketing activities that work for your brand. 1) Research your target market How much do you know about the target audience of your product or service? We’re not just talking about age, sex or occupation (though, of course, you need to know these too). To have the best chance of reaching your target market, you need to dig deeper and find out exactly what drives them towards purchase. What kind of triggers are they most likely to respond to? Which elements of the marketing mix have the most impact on them? How will your product or service benefit them? Understanding these aspects of your target audience will enable you to position and market your brand accordingly, so comprehensive market research is essential. It’s often easier (and more cost-effective) to outsource this type of research to a professional agency who will be better placed to obtain the information you need. 2) Analyse your competition In order to stay ahead of your competitors, you need to know who they are, what they’re doing and how they’re doing it. Once you’ve identified who your key business competitors are, look into the marketing methods they’re using and the way in which they have positioned their brand. What channels and platforms have they chosen to market their business? How are they promoting their brand and its products/services? Consider which elements are crucial to your own business and how you can position your brand in order to get ahead. 3) Define your objectives What do you want to achieve from your marketing activity? Whether it’s to increase your revenue, establish your business in a new market segment or improve brand awareness, setting clear, measurable marketing objectives is vital in understanding what steps need to be taken in order to achieve these goals. Make sure that each identified objective is specific (how much do you want to increase revenue by?), achievable (is it realistic?) and has a timeframe for accomplishment (are you aiming to achieve this goal in three months or a year?). You also need to make sure that your marketing objectives tie in with your overall business objectives. 4) Understand your business You may think you have a pretty good understanding of your business, but it’s surprising what insights can be achieved when you conduct a thorough SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats). Be rigorous, be meticulous, and above all be brutally honest. Is a lack of staff training letting your business down? Are your prices too high to compete in today’s market? Arming yourself with this knowledge is invaluable in developing a marketing strategy that leverages your company’s strengths and addresses those areas which need to be improved. In the next instalment of the Fulcrum guide to becoming marketing active, we’ll be looking at the raft of marketing channels available and helping you to identify which ones are best for your business.

Brand Strategy

Planning your brand strategy will involve the following:

Need Help Building and Promoting your Brand? Let’s meet and IMMEDIATELY create a positive impact on your brand.
By definition, brand strategy is a long-term plan for the development of a successful brand in order to achieve specific goals. A well-defined and executed brand strategy affects all aspects of a business and is directly connected to consumer needs, emotions, and competitive environments.

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Image_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

1 – Purpose

Functional and intentional purpose of the brand, eg: to make money and to perform acts of good will whilst making money. In other words to impact the environment surrounding the business. This environment may consist of clients, staff or a community within close proximity of the business.

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Image_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

2 – Consistency

In an effort to give your brand a platform to stand on, you need to be sure that all of your messaging is cohesive. Ultimately, consistency contributes to brand recognition, which fuels customer loyalty.

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Image_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

3 – Emotion

Finding a way to connect to your customers on a deeper, more emotional level will help them make a purchase decision. Do you give them peace of mind? Make them feel like part of the family? Do you make life easier? Use emotional triggers like these to strengthen your relationship and foster loyalty.

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Image_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

4- Flexibility

In this fast-changing world, businesses must remain flexible to stay relevant. On the plus side, this frees you to be creative with your campaigns.

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Image_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

5- Employee Involvement

As we mentioned before, achieving a sense of consistency is important if you wish to build brand recognition. And while a style guide can help you achieve a cohesive digital experience, it’s equally important for your employees to be well versed in the how they should be communicating with customers and representing the brand.

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Image_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

6- Loyalty

If you already have people that love you, your company, and your brand, don’t just sit there. Reward them for that love.

You also need to make sure that your marketing objectives tie in with your overall business objectives. 4) Understand your business You may think you have a pretty good understanding of your business, but it’s surprising what insights can be achieved when you conduct a thorough SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats). Be rigorous, be meticulous, and above all be brutally honest. Is a lack of staff training letting your business down? Are your prices too high to compete in today’s market? Arming yourself with this knowledge is invaluable in developing a marketing strategy that leverages your company’s strengths and addresses those areas which need to be improved. In the next instalment of the Fulcrum guide to becoming marketing active, we’ll be looking at the raft of marketing channels available and helping you to identify which ones are best for your business.

Committed to Innovation

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Headline_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

At Brand Connections, we’ve had one consistent purpose: to solve the problems marketers face today.  We listened to what they wanted and learned what they didn’t. We heard about the inefficiencies of the big agency holding companies and the struggles of working with multiple, boutique agencies. We heard their annoyance with agency “pitch teams” and the challenges of dealing with primarily junior account talent. We asked hundreds of marketers how they would structure an agency, because the best answers usually come straight from the source. Marketers needed a better agency model. They didn’t want MORE agency partners, but quality over quantity.

The mission became clear: Create a truly integrated, cross-discipline agency with solid account teams supported by rock star specialists. Focus on the most-needed tactics, together, to deliver an omni-channel message. Eliminate silos and conflicting agendas that hold traditional agency holding companies back. Stay current by looking forward. Oh, and hire really smart, hard-working, FUN people since we’re going to be spending a lot of time together.

Initiatives

At Brand Connections we believe building a company that embraces and welcomes change is why we’ve become a marketing agency known for innovation.

While we don’t have a giant poster in our lobby touting our mission statement (the work does that for us), we embrace a culture that is embodied by our 4 Pillars of Conduct: Accountability, Consistency, Effectiveness and Harmony.

Our belief in Accountability led us to change how we run meetings; allowing a maximum of 30 minutes and encouraging 15-minute meetings, walking meetings and standing meetings. All while training our employees on how to prepare and focus on action.  We set expectations to assign tasks during meetings and making each employee accountable for their own deliverables.

We promote consistency by sourcing processes from the bottom up. A leadership team of employee volunteers from all levels of the company meets monthly to identify and solve organizational issues that hinder consistency. They determine what challenges need solving and outline processes and best practices to get the job done.

Effectiveness means finding the right solution for a client’s business challenge. We have an industry-leading company education program consisting of company-wide trainings on innovative technology and strategies. This allows us to implement cutting-edge solutions across all divisions.

When we hire, Harmony is one of the most important criteria. We have trained managers at an organizational and departmental level about the value of cultural fit. As a result, harmony has become a major way in which we evaluate potential and current talent.

Our innovative culture has led to transformative moments for our company, resulting in a wide range of new services and products that are helping to reach our dream of Making Marketing Easier for Marketers.

How to Create a Profitable Sales Funnel

Your book, The Leaky Funnel, is based on what you call — Funnel Logic. Can you briefly describe it?

 Funnel Logic is a sales and marketing management and planning system used to increase prospect progression through the sales funnel, and improve sales and marketing effectiveness. It is a “belief system” built upon four key principles relating to how sales and marketing are conducted in the best-run businesses. Firstly, the combined sales and marketing function should build its activities around the buyer’s journey; not the sales cycle. Secondly, how many prospects will progress through each of these stages of this journey over time? Thirdly, what tactics will be used to cause this progression? And finally, the actual progression should be measured, so that tactics that work can be bolstered, and those which do not can be shelved.

 What is the ‘buyer’s journey.’ What do you mean by that?

Business buyers go through a process as they buy. They start off untroubled and unaware — even complacent — and then at some point, they become troubled. Once they’ve acknowledged their problem, they decide what they need to solve that problem. They then make their preferences, receive proposals and, ultimately, select a vendor, sign a contract and engage. We call this the buyer’s journey.

What are the stages of the buyer’s journey?  It is important to remember that businesses don’t just wake up in the morning and decide to purchase something. They take a journey:
  • It starts with being Positioned in Category which means the buyer knows you are one of the businesses who sells a particular product or service.
  • Then Interest Established: The buyer has done something (called, clicked etc.) to show they are interested.
  • Gap Acknowledged: The buyer will acknowledge that a problem exists.
  • Need Agreed: The buyer agrees what they need, even if they are not sure who to choose.
  • Offer Understood: The buyer knows what we are proposing to do to meet that need.
  • Preference Formed: The buyer prefers our solution.
  • Decision Made: The buyer moves to contract.
By structuring your sales and marketing around the buyer’s journey, your focus is on helping them move through each stage.  So, the problem you solve for buyers is key. How do you choose which problems to focus on?

The challenge is to identify a buyer problem that you are strong at solving, and one that you can solve better than your competitors. This ‘feeling out’ process is all about finding a problem that is worth focusing on and that you solve well. If you are good at solving buyer problems that are not rewarding, you will major in the minors. On the other hand, if you are focusing on the right problem but from a position of weakness, you will not be able to rival your competition.

Once you’ve picked a single problem, should that influence your sales and marketing strategy?

Simply, yes. In identifying your buyer’s problem, you are able to clearly define three key aspects of your sales and marketing function. Firstly, what your business is selling is now a clear solution to a problem. Secondly, who you are selling to, becomes who has the problem. And thirdly, how you will reach your buyers, translates to, what is the channel that uncovers the problem? This basically turns our thinking inside out:

Once you’ve formulated your strategy, how do you develop an action plan?

Once you have turned your strategy inside-out, it is time to translate this strategy into action. In order to do this effectively you must select tactics to help these potential buyers recognize that they have this problem. However, your strategy does not translate into action…yet; because our tactics are often arbitrary. I say this because businesses will often select tactics on the strength of; they worked last year, or it seems to work for our competitors, or we’ve always done it this way. I present an alternative. Remembering the buyer’s journey, you must select tactics that will progress buyers through that journey; through each stage.

 What about volume? How do you work out the number of buyers you actually need to progress?

 Trying to calculate the number of buyers you actually need is a valid pursuit, however it can be a trap. When doing this, you must keep two things in mind: buyers need time to progress (take their journey) and your tactics need to be repeated several times to have an effect (“one-hit-wonders” rarely do the job). Marketing teams are always geared for success, but it is often how they capitalise on failure that makes them rich. If you start with a simple numerical model mapping your prospective buyers progressing along their journey — importantly remembering to allow for leakage at each stage — you quickly realise two scary realities:

A vast majority of initial leads will leak at some stage along the journey, so doesn’t it make sense to have a proper recycling program?; and Shouldn’t we have some idea of the effect of recycling before we plan a demand generation campaign?

Given this, in order to work out exactly how many buyers you will need, you need to recycle all the “leaked” buyers back into your funnel and re-run the model. Decide how much of the total revenue Marketing is to contribute and then adjust your top-of-funnel number until the “customer” (converted buyers) number will contribute the desired revenue outcome.

 And once you know how many buyers you need to progress, how do you actually get them moving?

Ultimately, what you are trying to achieve is to nurture your buyers along their journey. In order to do this, you need tactics that move your buyers through your funnel from stage to stage. In a practical sense, you must initially identify buyers who meet your target profile, position your brand on their list and get their attention, convince these businesses to accept they have the problem you solve best, gain acceptance and backing of your own solution and then move to contract.

 What are some examples of progression tactics that are suitable for small businesses?

 There are many tactics that will work just as well for big business as they will for small operators. As your goal for progression is to keep doing the small rhythmic tasks that keep the prospect aware of how you can solve their problem; something as simple as a monthly email or blog article will have the same effect no matter what size the business. It is likely that your financial position or operational capability will dictate what is actually possible. Investigate options for each stage of your buyer’s journey; here are some common tactics:

  • Get known by making sure all the key bloggers mention you and the problem you solve.
  • Trouble buyers by asking tough questions on your website and in meetings.
  • Agree the need by providing a template showing typical buyer needs.
  • Confirm your buyer’s situation, problem and need by email after meeting.
  • Build this whole journey (situation, problem, need and solution) into your proposal in case there are others involved in the buying process.
  • For all buyers who leak (at any stage) recycle and nurture using regular email and thought leadership.
How do you see social media? What new tactics work for B2B?

The marketing benefits of social media are just now beginning to become apparent. While there has been endless conjecture surrounding the ways in which social media is going to revolutionise the way we market products and services, the initial hype is beginning to turn into some sort of reality. As this is a small business forum, let’s consider some relevant B2B uses for various forms of social media. Blogging, micro-blogging (Twitter) and video blogging (YouTube) are great ways to position and even trouble business buyers on a shoestring.

 What about buyers who fail to progress?

 It is often the small percentage of successful lead conversions that get all our attention — while the other, much higher, percentage that leaked gets forgotten. Adopting tactics that recycle those who have already leaked, in order to assist nurturing tactics that stem the leakage, can turn neglected prospects into future customers. Recycling tactics handle those buyers who fail to progress — the leakage; these tactics ready a buyer for re-entry into the funnel. While these leads are in the funnel, specific nurturing tactics keep the buyer from leaking. Having captured the buyer’s details, relevant and rhythmic eDM, Tele-nurturing and RSS updates will keep your name and your solution at the front of the buyer’s mind.

 What would you say is key to successfully executing tactics?

 To help your buyers move along their journey, down the funnel, you have to execute the correct tactics at the correct time; however, as we have already agreed there is always going to be leakage. When executing tactics, the key to success is rhythm — if you can manage tactics in a way that will take advantage of ’leakage’ whilst nurturing leads still in your funnel, success will come. If you can reach a point where you have a sound grasp of your buyer’s journey, Sales and Marketing are on the same page tactically and your tactics for progression are working — it is now time to focus on obtaining good momentum that  allows for recycled leads to be rhythmically nurtured, even if a little at a time. In B2B marketing, I like to use the term ‘corkscrew’ to refer to a tactic (or series of tactics) that you can execute over and again, knowing that while the buyer will only drop into your funnel occasionally, every time you twist the corkscrew, you are moving them along — a little.

Door-to-door marketing is a canvassing technique that is generally used for sales, marketing, advertising, or campaigning, in which the person or persons walk from the door of one house to the door of another, trying to sell or advertise a product or service to the general public or gather information. People who use this sales approach are often called traveling salesmen, or the archaic name drummer, to “drum up” business. This technique is also sometimes called direct sales. A variant of this involves cold calling first, when another sales representative attempts to gain agreement that a salesperson should visit.

With the realization of telephone “Do Not Call” lists it is becoming increasingly more difficult to connect with consumers and business people. An emerging trend is the deployment of very professional, highly skilled door-to-door canvassers to drive product sales and brand awareness.

Coordinating, training and motivating these teams to produce results are at the very core of Fulcrum’s proven capabilities. Fulcrum has the knowledge and experience required to implement these programs, such as best days and times to canvass, who will sell the most product; male, female, young or mature and what geographics and demographics respond best to door-to-door marketing. Put Fulcrum’s experience to work for you and avoid the costly mistakes of trying to manage these programs in-house.


Hire and Train Door-to-Door Marketing Team

If you’re in charge of hiring people, that typically means that you’ve found success in Door To Door Marketing yourself. You know what it takes to be great, but now you’re stuck with an entirely new problem. How do you find others who will be just as good (if not better) and will stick around and grow into important influencers invested in the long term growth of the company? A great D2D sales company is a great recruiting company. So what does that greatness look like?

First off, you need to realize that you’re not going to hire a superstar every time. If you think you have found one, be careful. It’s not hard for someone to seem golden during one interview and you don’t want to be fooled.

Even if you think the candidate does have a lot of great experience working in the field for other companies, you have to realize that success doesn’t always translate. What worked for them at previous companies probably won’t work as well for you. In fact, their success will probably make them stubborn; after all, what reason do they have to follow your approach when they’ve figured out their own?

It’s also possible that the rep’s previous company might have had much better-developed training and selling systems than you do, and that system was the key reason they killed it. If you’re not developing a competitive system, what does that communicate about your company? The more dialed-in you are about a rep’s success, the more likely you are to attract and keep strong performers.
