Buying Centers

4.3 Buying Centers

Learning Objectives

  1. Explain what a buying center is.
  2. Explain who the members of buying centers are and describe their roles.
  3. Describe the duties of professional buyers.
  4. Describe the personal and interpersonal dynamics that affect the decisions buying centers make.

The professors who form a committee at your school to choose textbooks are acting like a buying center. Buying centers are groups of people within organizations who make purchasing decisions. Large organizations often have permanent departments that consist of the people who, in a sense, shop for a living. They are professional buyers, in other words. Their titles vary. In some companies, they are simply referred to as buyers. In other companies, they are referred to as purchasing agents, purchasing managers, or procurement officers. Retailers often refer to their buyers as merchandisers. Most of the people who do these jobs have bachelor’s of science degrees. Some undergo additional industry training to obtain an advanced purchasing certification designation1.

Buyers can have a large impact on the expenses, sales, and profits of a company. Pier 1’s purchasing agents literally comb the entire world looking for products the company’s customers want most. What happens if the products the purchasing agents pick don’t sell? Pier 1’s sales fall, and people get fired. This doesn’t happen in B2C markets. If you pick out the wrong comforter for your bed, you don’t get fired. Your bedroom just looks crummy.

Consequently, professional buyers are shrewd. They have to be because their jobs depend on it. Their jobs depend on their choosing the best products at the best prices from the best vendors. Professional buyers are also well informed and less likely to buy a product on a whim than consumers. The following sidebar outlines the tasks professional buyers generally perform.

The Duties of Professional Buyers

  • Considering the availability of products, the reliability of the products’ vendors, and the technical support they can provide
  • Studying a company’s sales records and inventory levels
  • Identifying suppliers and obtaining bids from them
  • Negotiating prices, delivery dates, and payment terms for goods and services
  • Keeping abreast of changes in the supply and demand for goods and services their firms need
  • Staying informed of the latest trends so as to anticipate consumer buying patterns
  • Determining the media (TV, the Internet, newspapers, and so forth) in which advertisements will be placed
  • Tracking advertisements in newspapers and other media to check competitors’ sales activities

Increasingly, purchasing managers have become responsible for buying not only products but also functions their firms want to outsource. The functions aren’t limited to manufacturing. They also include product innovation and design services, customer service and order fulfillment services, and information technology and networking services to name a few. Purchasing agents responsible for finding offshore providers of goods and services often take trips abroad to inspect the facilities of the providers and get a better sense of their capabilities.

Other Players

Purchasing agents don’t make all the buying decisions in their companies, though. As we explained, other people in the organization often have a say, as well they should. Purchasing agents frequently need their feedback and help to buy the best products and choose the best vendors. The people who provide their firms’ buyers with input generally fall into one or more of the following groups:

Initiators

Initiators are the people within the organization who first see the need for the product. But they don’t stop there; whether they have the ability to make the final decision of what to buy or not, they get the ball rolling. Sometimes they initiate the purchase by simply notifying purchasing agents of what is needed; other times they have to lobby executives to consider making a change.

Users

Users are the people and groups within the organization that actually use the product. Frequently, one or more users serve as an initiator in an effort to improve what they produce or how they produce it, and they certainly have the responsibility for implementing what is purchased. Users often have certain specifications in mind for products and how they want them to perform. An example of a user might be a professor at your school who wants to adopt an electronic book and integrate it into his or her online course.

Influencers

Influencers are people who may or may not use the product but have experience or expertise that can help improve the buying decision. For example, an engineer may prefer a certain vendor’s product platform and try to persuade others that it is the best choice.

Gatekeepers

If you want to sell a product to a large company like Walmart, you can’t just walk in the door of its corporate headquarters and demand to see a purchasing agent. You will first have to get past of a number of gatekeepers, or people who will decide if and when you get access to members of the buying center. These are people such as buying assistants, personal assistants, and other individuals who have some say about which sellers are able to get a foot in the door.

Warning: Do not be rude to or otherwise anger the faculty secretary. This is good advice for salespeople and students as well as faculty members.

Gatekeepers often need to be courted as hard as prospective buyers do. They generally have a lot of information about what’s going on behind the scenes and a certain amount of informal power. If they like you, you’re in a good position as a seller. If they don’t, your job is going to be much harder. In the case of textbook sales, the gatekeepers are often faculty secretaries. They know in advance which instructors will be teaching which courses and the types of books they will need. It is not uncommon for faculty secretaries to screen the calls of textbook sales representatives.

Deciders

The decider is the person who makes the final purchasing decision. The decider might or might not be the purchasing manager. Purchasing managers are generally solely responsible for deciding upon routine purchases and small purchases. However, the decision to purchase a large, expensive product that will have a major impact on a company is likely to be made by or with the help of other people in the organization, perhaps even the CEO. The decision may be made by a single decider, or there may be a few who reach consensus. Further, deciders take into account the input of all of the other participants: the users, influencers, and so forth. Sellers, of course, pay special attention to what deciders want. “Who makes the buying decision?” is a key question B2B sales and marketing personnel are trained to quickly ask potential customers.

The Interpersonal and Personal Dynamics of B2B Marketing

We made it a point earlier in our discussion to explain how rational and calculating business buyers are. So would it surprise you to learn that sometimes the dynamics that surround B2B marketing don’t lead to the best purchasing decisions? Interpersonal factors among the people making the buying decision often have an impact on the products chosen, good or bad. (You can think of this phenomenon as “office politics.”) For example, one person in a buying unit might wield a lot of power and greatly influence the purchasing decision. However, other people in the unit might resent the power he or she wields and insist on a different offering, even if doesn’t best meet the organization’s needs. Savvy B2B marketers are aware of these dynamics and try their best to influence the outcome.

Personal factors play a part. B2B buyers are overwhelmed with choices, features, benefits, information, data, and metrics. They often have to interview dozens of potential vendors and ask them hundreds of questions. No matter how disciplined they are in their buying procedures, they will often find a way to simplify their decision making either consciously or subconsciously (Miller, 2007). For example, a buyer deciding upon multiple vendors running neck and neck might decide to simply choose the vendor whose sales representative he likes the most.

Factors such as these can be difficult for a company to control. However, branding—how successful a company is at marketing its brands—is a factor under a company’s control, says Kevin Randall of Movéo Integrated Branding, an Illinois-based marketing-consulting firm. Sellers can use their brands to their advantage to help business buyers come to the conclusion that their products are the best choice. IBM, for example, has long had a strong brand name when it comes to business products. The company’s reputation was so solid that for years the catchphrase “Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM” was often repeated among purchasing agents—and by IBM salespeople of course! (Miller, 2007)

In short, B2B marketing is very strategic. Selling firms try to gather as much information about their customers as they can and use that information to their advantage. As an analogy, imagine if you were interested in asking out someone you had seen on campus. Sure, you could simply try to show up at a party or somewhere on campus in the hopes of meeting the person. But if you were thinking strategically, you might try to find out everything you could about the person, what he or she likes to do and so forth, and then try to arrange a meeting. That way when you did meet the person, you would be better able to strike up a conversation and develop a relationship with him or her. B2B selling is similarly strategic. Little is left to chance.

Key Takeaway

Buying centers are groups of people within organizations who make purchasing decisions. The buying centers of large organizations employ professional buyers who, in a sense, shop for a living. They don’t make all the buying decisions in their companies, though. The other people who provide input are users, or the people and groups within the organization that actually use the product; influencers, or people who may or may not use the product but have experience or expertise that can help improve the buying decision; gatekeepers, or people who will decide if and when a seller gets access to members of the buying center; and deciders, or the people who make the final purchasing decision. Interpersonal dynamics between the people in a buying center will affect the choices the center makes. Personal factors, such as how likeable a seller is, play a part because buyers are often overwhelmed with information and will find ways to simplify their decision making.

Review Questions

  1. Which people do you think have the most influence on the decisions a buying center makes? Why?
  2. Describe the duties of professional buyers. What aspects of their jobs seem attractive? Which aspects seem unattractive to you?
  3. How do personal and interpersonal dynamics affect the decisions buying centers make?

Brand Design Start-Up Businesses

What Is Brand Design?

Many people think that Brand Design is just about designing a logo and marketing materials. That’s a part of it, but not the whole story. Brand Design means that you first create the Brand of your company: the story that you want to tell about your company.Then, you design your graphics and the visuals for your company to tell your company’s story to your best potential clients.

Why Do Start-up Businesses Need to Design a Brand?

A brand helps your business look established, stable and successful and it helps you look more trustworthy, like you’re a “real” business and like your business will be there for your clients when they need you.  A Professional brand helps start-up businesses overcome three of the most common sales objections you’ll hear:

Objection 1: That you haven’t been in business long enough to be trusted.

Objection 2: That your start-up business might “go under” at any moment, leaving the client without a solution – and out their deposit.

Objection 3: That you might not have the experience to complete the project successfully.

What Else Can a Brand Do?

A brand contributes to your business’s visibility, credibility and memorability.  Visibility: You want your brand to be visible in the marketplace with a recognizable brand design that appears on all of your business materials. Credibility: Having a consistent brand makes your business look more believable. Your customers will be more likely to trust your claims and to trust your company with their business. Brand Design helps your company be more memorable – which means that it’s more likely that people will call you when they need your services. Memorability: 40% of people are better at remembering what they see (graphics) than what they hear or read. When you combine graphics with text or audio recordings, that 40% memorability skyrockets – to 70% and more.

How Should a Start-up Business Go About Designing a Brand?

There’s a 3-step process that every business should go through. Defining these factors will help you determine what your business’s brand designs should look like.

Here’s a quick outline of the steps:

Step 1: Define your business’s Brand Story: who you are, what you do, what makes you different and who you can best help.

Step 2: Brand Message. Determine your brand message to communicate: who you are, what you do, and what makes you different to the people you can best help.

Step 3: Brand Design. Develop consistent marketing and online materials to showcase your brand and to market your business.  Making sure that these materials are consistent is key. Consistency gives your business the repetition and reinforcement needed to create brand recognition.

SmallBizLady: How Can a Company’s Brand Design Communicate Their Brand Story to Their Customers?

Erin Ferree: There are 3 major design elements that a brand design can use to communicate:

1. Choose a Symbol. Symbols, forms, shapes and even objects all have meanings. Choose symbols that have meaning for your specific target audience. And, make sure that meaning aligns with your Brand Story.

2. Font meaning. Fonts are a major design element.  Each font has a different meaning or message. For example, Century Gothic is a modern, geometric font and Times New Roman is a more traditional font. Choose your fonts carefully to communicate your Brand Story.

3. Color. You’ve heard that a picture is worth a thousand words? Once you add color to that picture, it can be worth ten thousand words. Colors have different meanings in different contexts and cultures. Make sure that your business’s color palette communicates the message that you’ve laid out in your Brand Story.

How Should a Start-up Use Design Elements to Communicate?

The most common way to use design elements (symbols, fonts and color) is in your logo. A logo should consist of a unique icon, or picture, that shows what your business is all about, and your business name. Your logo should have a color palette associated with it (though you will have a black and white version too)

Should a Small Business Design a Logo Immediately Upon Starting Up?

A logo may not be the first piece of marketing material you design — you should wait to design it until your business has its’ “legs”.  You will probably need to design some temporary marketing materials when you first begin your business. This will allow you test your business ideas, refine them, and to get the first few paying customers. By waiting to design your brand, you can make sure your brand story is solid and that you have a story that you want to live with for the life of your business.

What Can Happen if You Design the Logo Too Soon?

You could waste money. You need to make sure that your logo will be your business’s logo for life — because you don’t want to redesign your logo.  Redesigning your logo is not only a costly process, but means that you have to redesign all of your other marketing materials.  And redesigning your logo means that you lose all the memorability that you’ve built up around your original logo.

When Should a Start-Up Business Approach a Graphic Designer?

Once you have a defined Brand Story then you should find a graphic designer and have them create a logo that communicates directly to your customers. I recommend working with a designer who has been trained in symbology, font meanings and color psychology.

Is a Brand Design Just a Logo?

No. A Brand Design consists of a logo and your company’s Visual Vocabulary. A Visual Vocabulary is all of the other design elements that you will use in addition to the logo on your marketing materials. The most basic Visual Vocabulary will include an extended font palette (headline and body fonts chosen to compliment your logo font)… and an extended color palette. These colors can be used for backgrounds, highlights, headlines, etc.A more advanced Visual Vocabulary will have background colors, effects, specialized font treatments (such as a treatment for your tagline), the type of paper that you print your materials on. All of these elements, plus your logo, are the foundation of your company’s brand design.

What Brand Elements Should Be Designed First?

 Once you’ve designed your logo, you can begin designing your print and online marketing materials. You should start designing a business card and a basic website or blog. Then, take stock of which additional pieces would help you communicate with your target audience — and design those strategically.

Why Is It So Critical to Invest In Professional Brand Design?

Brand Design helps a start-up — or any small business – to connect more quickly and efficiently with their potential customers.

Face to Face or Door to Door Marketing Right Approach For You?

Face-to-face or door-to-door marketing is the act of going from one business (or household) to another physically in order to sell your services. Face-to-face marketing may seem like a nerve-wracking thing to do for the new entrepreneur or freelancer. However, when done right, it?s a very powerful way to build a business. If you know how to do face-to-face marketing?you can decide whether it?s something you want to implement in your business or not.

One area of marketing often neglected by first-time freelancers and entrepreneurs is face-to-face or door-to-door marketing. Yet, it?s a form of marketing that can bring immediate results and is often much easier for first timers than telesales (which is perhaps the most immediate form of selling available to start-ups).

Is Door-To-Door the Right Approach For You?

Door-to-door works best when you have a service that can be used widely in your local business community. So, for example, graphic design, web design (and development), copywriting, photography, etc. are all services that you?re likely to find local buyers for.

Other services, such as UX design, for example, may not be as suited for door-to-door marketing (unless you live in a software development hotspot).

If you?re going to use face-to-face marketing, you need potential clients whom you can visit. In the best cases, those clients will be closely geographically grouped. Web designers who specialize in retail sites, for example, are going to find the high street of their local town a great place to get started on face-to-face marketing.

How Do You Get Started Doing Door-to-Door Marketing?

You visit the business premises of potential clients, without an appointment. You ask to speak to the person who deals with your service.

If that person?s there and will speak to you, pitch him/her for a meeting or leave information and arrange to call back, or even, if the person has the time, pitch him/her for your services on the spot.

If the person?s not there and may speak to you, get his/her business card and then try to make an appointment to come back and talk or drop off information.

If he or she doesn?t want to speak to you and you can?t get a card, leave marketing materials and your card, asking the person you are dealing with to pass it on to the potential buyer.

That?s pretty much it. The key to this kind of marketing is not to come across as someone on the ?hard sell? but to introduce yourself as a neighbouring business (e.g., local ? not next door necessarily) and to start a dialogue.

You may find that you arrive just as they?re looking for your services or that they?ve been thinking about using a similar service for years but never got around to acting on it. In other cases, they may not need your service. However, if you represent yourself and your business effectively and professionally, you will almost certainly find it leads to work in the long run.

The bigger the place in which you live, the more door-to-door opportunities you are likely to have.

Always follow up on any door-to-door call with a telephone call to increase?and dramatically so? your chances of closing business.

Most business-to-business door-to-door marketing doesn?t take place on the doorstep. It takes place in someone?s office, but it can take place on the doorstep, and it?s best to be prepared to hold a conversation anywhere.

One Last Thing ? Personal Safety

I?ve done plenty of door-to-door marketing to businesses and never had so much as an angry response. However, it?s best not to take any chances when you?re putting yourself into someone else?s space. The following advice may not be necessary to apply in your local area or in your country at all. But if you?re in doubt, take the following necessary precautions:

I?ve done plenty of door-to-door marketing to businesses and never had so much as an angry response. However, it?s best not to take any chances when you?re putting yourself into someone else?s space. The following advice may not be necessary to apply in your local area or in your country at all. But if you?re in doubt, take the following necessary precautions:

Don?t go into any setting that makes you feel uneasy.

Do ensure that someone else knows your calling route before you leave and that you check in with that person when you?re finished.

Do carry a phone with a GPS tracking service.

Don?t be afraid to leave any premises where you are made to feel uneasy or if someone becomes rude or abusive.

GPS can be a handy navigation device when going door-to-door, but it can also be used for personal safety. Make sure your phone has GPS which can be tracked by a friend, family member or business partner just in case.

The Take Away

Face-to-face marketing is highly effective but needs to be conducted with a sensible regard for personal safety. Make sure that there?s a decent sized market for your services in a location before conducting face-to-face marketing work; otherwise, it?ll be a lot of work without sufficient rewards.

If you find it hard in the early days of doing door-to-door marketing, you might want to remember Thomas Edison, the famous inventor?s advice: ?Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.?

marketing Services in Santacruz

ABOUT FIELD MARKETING

WHAT IS FIELD MARKETING? Field marketing and marketing Services in Santacruz is becoming more popular for companies in various industries. From food and beverage to consumer goods. It’s a tool that can be used to showcase latest products or services in a face to face environment with consumers. Furthermore companies recognise the importance of having brand ambassadors and reps on the ‘front line’ introducing the public to new innovations or delicious treats. This is done in the ‘field’; around shopping centers and in retail hot spots, expos and events, university campus’ and sport stadiums to name a few. Most campaign activities focus on customer facing roles including product demonstrations, direct selling and street training teams. However not all field marketing is consumer facing such as auditing and merchandising. Goals and outcomes of field marketing will differ from company to company. Some campaigns are designed to increase brand awareness or sales. While others may be to collect data and feedback about the product and its market. At Splatter we have all the tools necessary for the clients desired outcome to be achieved WHAT A FIELD MARKETING TEAM LOOKS LIKE. For successful field marketing campaigns companies might have dedicated teams within their business whose task it is to be creative and manage field marketing initiatives. However agencies are also on hand to support a campaign. By offering staff, management and infrastructure the client can focus on the more creative aspect of the campaign. A field marketing agency and  marketing Services in Santacruz tends to work in territories operating with reps within their own regions. Often overlooked by regional or national managers depending on the scale of the team. Although territory management is more important for wide scale national distributing business, smaller brands are recognising the importance of managing promotions on a more local scale using teams to promote, audit and sell in their regions.

WHAT CAN FIELD MARKETING DO FOR YOUR BUSINESS?

1. PRODUCT DEMONSTRATIONS

As mentioned already, demo days are a popular tool of field marketing. These campaigns can stretch from as little as one week to 6 months however some are continuous and full time. For consumer goods this would mean having brand representatives in retail stores and around shopping centers, events or road shows. Finally The Brand Ambassadors are engaging with the consumer and showing them how the product or service works. This is important as it allows a potential buyer to get hands on experience and a feel of ownership of the product; most importantly the rep is also on hand to answers any questions the customer may have. Although a sell is great the main aim of a demo campaign is brand awareness. Food and beverage take a slightly differently approach. By handing out free samples and one off deals of their product around retail and events, consumers are getting a taste of the brands latest delicious treats and at the same time everyone loves free food! Sampling is a fun activation and is effective when bringing new products to the high street. Marketing Training Learn more about product demonstrations by checking out our in depth guide here.

2. DIRECT SELLING

Much like product demonstrations these campaigns have brand reps or ambassadors at the center of them. The difference is it’s more about the selling of the product. Sales rep might have targets to adhere to. Finally these campaigns are super effective during peak times when the difference in a sale or not can be having a knowledgeable brand rep in store. Product Demonstrations Learn more about what direct selling is in our guide here.

3. RETAIL AUDITS AND MERCHANDISING

Auditing takes the reps out off the front line and away from the consumer. Auditing teams are used by marketers to monitor traditional marketing strategies that they put in place across retail. Most of all audits ensure that the brand is represented as it should be on shelves and around retail hot spots. Examples are; checking POS is as it should be across the territories, promotions advertised and running and paid spaces such as gondolas are set up. The data collected from the teams can be useful for the marketers to negotiate better future deals. In addition it also allows for mistakes to be rectified there and then by the reps. Splatter offer a live system that can be monitored by the client in real team meaning that red flags in the field can be dealt with instantaneously .Store Audits and Merchandising To learn more about Audits and merchandising view our guide here.

4. GUERRILLA MARKETING

When it comes to guerrilla marketing the gloves are off. They are usually low budget campaigns but with the right imagination and ideas they offer up some unprecedented results. Furthermore the term ‘Guerrilla Marketing’ itself is used to refer to campaigns that surprise consumers in locations and ways they might not usually expect. For that reason the experience remains with the consumer.

5. PRODUCT SAMPLING

Field marketing as you have seen is a useful tool to accompany other traditional marketing strategies. For example a company might pay a huge amount of money for prime advertising spot during a major sports event. However if this is the case it is important for the brand to follow up with demos in stores. If there is a brand rep placed in store the following few days after the advertising campaign the customer is more likely to come over and ask some questions about the product. Another reason you might need field marketing is to ensure your budget has been well spent. After investing into a large scale in-store promotion campaign you want to ensure that it is implemented to the standard agreed with the retailer. Data can be collected by auditing teams and analysed to see if the money had been well spent. Furthermore it also gives opportunity for future campaigns to implemented with higher efficiency and success.

The Four P’s of Experiential Marketing

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

Marketers that have been in the business long enough can recite the “Four Ps” of marketing off of the top of their heads: product, price, place, and promotion. These Four Ps refer to a marketer’s responsibility to create the right product, price it correctly, distribute it to the consumer, and promote it to the target audience. But according to Scott Schenker, a senior-level executive at Microsoft, there are four other Ps that marketers need to consider when planning an experiential marketing event. Here are the four P’s of experiential marketing:

Place

Anyone who attends your events should know that your brand is sponsoring the event the moment that they walk through the door. This is true of all guests, even those that are not extremely loyal customers or very familiar with your brand. But, this doesn’t necessarily mean that the space should be filled to the brim with logos and branding. Of course, every event should have branding, but guests should still be able to tell it’s your event even if the logos and slogans were all removed.

For example, imagine walking into an Apple store. If the products were no longer on display, would you still be able to tell you were in an Apple store? Most people would immediately recognize the clean, all-white aesthetic and associate it with the Apple brand. Try to do this at your event so guests feel as if they are immersing themselves completely into the brand experience that you have created for them. If you can pull this off, then you will have mastered the first P of experiential marketing.

Purpose

The second P of experiential marketing according to Schenker is purpose. A successful experiential marketing event serves some sort of purpose. Many brands make the mistake of assuming the purpose of an event is to reach a goal that will benefit the company. For instance, they may define the purpose of an event as “raising brand awareness” or “generating leads.” But, the purpose of an event should be defined with the consumer in mind. What is the purpose of them being at the event? What are they getting out of attending the event? They don’t care whether you are successful in raising brand awareness or generating new leads, so define their purpose instead of focusing on yours.

Schenker suggests that it doesn’t take much to give guests a sense of purpose once they arrive at the event. In fact, he mentions that even displaying the brand’s tagline throughout the event is enough to help guests understand their purpose. For instance, the international cosmetic company L’Oreal has a tagline that states “Because you’re worth it.” Posting this tagline throughout an event would make it clear that guests are there to explore ways they can pamper themselves with L’Oreal’s products. This isn’t the only way to create a sense of purpose, but it may be the simplest way for brands to master this “P” of experiential marketing.

Pride

Everyone who represents your brand, from your employees to your brand ambassadors, should show pride in what they are doing at the event. Guests will be able to tell when someone who is representing your brand doesn’t truly care about the event or its purpose. This indifference will rub off on anyone who this person encounters, which could affect the atmosphere of the event.

Make sure the brand ambassadors that are working your event know how to greet guests, engage in friendly conversations, and give off positive vibes. Brand ambassadors should also be warned that they are always “on” even when they are not talking face-to-face with a customer. This means they should know it’s never acceptable to roll their eyes or give off a bad attitude when they think no one is watching. In today’s world, someone is always watching, and if it’s a guest, they will pick up on the brand ambassador’s lack of pride for your company. If you want guests to be excited about your brand, then the people that are working for you should be excited, too.

Promote

You may think that this “P” has to do with promoting the event to ensure that people attend, but that’s not the case. When Schenker refers to promotion, he means the opportunity to cross-promote. As you are planning an experiential marketing event, look for opportunities to cross-promote other products or services that you offer.

However, make sure you keep the audience in mind when deciding how or if you should cross-promote other products or services. In order to master this “P” of experiential marketing, the cross-promotion must feel natural. You should only choose products or services that the guests at your event will benefit from, otherwise they’re not worth cross-promoting.

[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.

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 it parks Marketing Solutions 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.

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.

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.

B2B Experiential Marketing – When does it work?

What is experiential marketing? On the rise in recent years, it parks Marketing Solutions in pune and experiential marketing is all about customer interaction with your brand. It offers a unique experience with products or services, allowing customers to get a feel for how they would use it in their lives. For years marketers have been trying to get customers to use and trial their products. In this way it’s not a new concept; there have however, certainly been some innovative spins on how it’s done. Let’s look at experiential marketing, how it can work for B2Bs and some of the ways it can help build your brand.

Emotional + Experiential Branding = Experiential Marketing The two elements that underpin experiential marketing are emotional branding and experiential branding.

Emotional branding: is about building the relationship between your brand and customers. Promoting emotional benefits like brand trust, security and credibility as a result of engaging with your brand is crucial. Experiential branding: designs and creates interactions that are sensory in nature, which emotionally influences preferences, shaping brand perception, and influencing satisfaction and loyalty. An excellent experiential marketing campaign is able to fuse both elements seamlessly together. Experiential Marketing for B2Bs In recent years interest in B2B experiential marketing has grown and some of the initial hesitation surrounding it has been replaced with a working understanding, when to do it, and how it stimulates ROI. For B2Bs, experiential marketing is generally less obvious, with the focus often on services (for example) in place of B2C exciting product launches. Oftentimes the B2B budget is also stretched. However we are seeing marketers begin to recognise the potentials that the experience can offer consumers. “The success of brand experience within the B2C market has not gone unnoticed, and B2B marketers are waking up to the potential of brand experience. However, there is a long way to go before they catch up with their B2C counterparts.” – Graham Ede, Ion Group 3 Examples of B2B experiential marketing Location with B2Bs can be one of the major barriers, and while it may not be easy to do experiential marketing in quite the same way as B2C, there’s certainly room to employ some of the same principals. Creating sensory interactions that promote core feelings of trust, and awareness of your product or services is central to this. Fulcrum marketing in public spaces – Linked with experiential, some marketers use a form of Fulcrum marketing. They tend to hold this drive in places where there are high concentrations of business buyers. Branded promotional staff can offer business people the opportunity to enter in a promotion, or sign up to attend an event whilst promoting the benefits of the product.  demonstrations & reward – as part of a targeted marketing strategy, those in the IT space can offer information via webinar or video, which can showcase some aspects of the technology solution. Some marketing and web-based tools such as  offer a free trial period, together with online coaching via Skype. This allows the user to build confidence in using the tool, and to experience all of the benefits of the trial period. At the end of the trial period (7 days), the participant is given a report with feedback on how well they have used the tool. Then they are awarded a certificate. Surprises and games – Surprising customers by showing up where they least expect you, gifting them, or sending them a card is a way to provide an out of the box experience and drive brand awareness. Another option could be to exhibit at a partner’s event as IBM did. Their interactive stand came complete with a candy bar, and plasma screens which posted live tweets from event attendees. Digital technology such as apps and games are also opportunity areas, and while often costly, look set to become more widespread and affordable in future. Experiential marketing reflects the growing importance of emphasising emotions to build successful brands. Digital media offers expanding opportunities to offer such experiences. In the ever-competitive B2B marketplace, it’s no longer enough to rely on traditional modes for lead generation. B2B marketers need to consider the complete kit that is available to them including; social media, mobile, search, paid advertising, print, telemarketing and increasingly placing emotion at the heart of it all with an experiential approach.

The Four P’s of Experiential Marketing

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

Marketers that have been in the business long enough can recite the “Four Ps” of marketing off of the top of their heads: product, price, place, and promotion. These Four Ps refer to a marketer’s responsibility to create the right product, price it correctly, distribute it to the consumer, and promote it to the target audience. But according to Scott Schenker, a senior-level executive at Microsoft, there are four other Ps that marketers need to consider when planning an experiential marketing event. Here are the four P’s of experiential marketing:

Place

Anyone who attends your events should know that your brand is sponsoring the event the moment that they walk through the door. This is true of all guests, even those that are not extremely loyal customers or very familiar with your brand. But, this doesn’t necessarily mean that the space should be filled to the brim with logos and branding. Of course, every event should have branding, but guests should still be able to tell it’s your event even if the logos and slogans were all removed.

For example, imagine walking into an Apple store. If the products were no longer on display, would you still be able to tell you were in an Apple store? Most people would immediately recognize the clean, all-white aesthetic and associate it with the Apple brand. Try to do this at your event so guests feel as if they are immersing themselves completely into the brand experience that you have created for them. If you can pull this off, then you will have mastered the first P of experiential marketing.

Purpose

The second P of experiential marketing according to Schenker is purpose. A successful experiential marketing event serves some sort of purpose. Many brands make the mistake of assuming the purpose of an event is to reach a goal that will benefit the company. For instance, they may define the purpose of an event as “raising brand awareness” or “generating leads.” But, the purpose of an event should be defined with the consumer in mind. What is the purpose of them being at the event? What are they getting out of attending the event? They don’t care whether you are successful in raising brand awareness or generating new leads, so define their purpose instead of focusing on yours.

Schenker suggests that it doesn’t take much to give guests a sense of purpose once they arrive at the event. In fact, he mentions that even displaying the brand’s tagline throughout the event is enough to help guests understand their purpose. For instance, the international cosmetic company L’Oreal has a tagline that states “Because you’re worth it.” Posting this tagline throughout an event would make it clear that guests are there to explore ways they can pamper themselves with L’Oreal’s products. This isn’t the only way to create a sense of purpose, but it may be the simplest way for brands to master this “P” of experiential marketing.

Pride

Everyone who represents your brand, from your employees to your brand ambassadors, should show pride in what they are doing at the event. Guests will be able to tell when someone who is representing your brand doesn’t truly care about the event or its purpose. This indifference will rub off on anyone who this person encounters, which could affect the atmosphere of the event.

Make sure the brand ambassadors that are working your event know how to greet guests, engage in friendly conversations, and give off positive vibes. Brand ambassadors should also be warned that they are always “on” even when they are not talking face-to-face with a customer. This means they should know it’s never acceptable to roll their eyes or give off a bad attitude when they think no one is watching. In today’s world, someone is always watching, and if it’s a guest, they will pick up on the brand ambassador’s lack of pride for your company. If you want guests to be excited about your brand, then the people that are working for you should be excited, too.

Promote

You may think that this “P” has to do with promoting the event to ensure that people attend, but that’s not the case. When Schenker refers to promotion, he means the opportunity to cross-promote. As you are planning an experiential marketing event, look for opportunities to cross-promote other products or services that you offer.

However, make sure you keep the audience in mind when deciding how or if you should cross-promote other products or services. In order to master this “P” of experiential marketing, the cross-promotion must feel natural. You should only choose products or services that the guests at your event will benefit from, otherwise they’re not worth cross-promoting.
