As business owners and entrepreneurs, we all know we need a business plan, LLC agreement, and our legal documents. Yet, most business professionals, simply forget about one of the most important documents for your business, your marketing plan.
A marketing plan is just as important as a business plan and LLC agreement. If you don’t know how you will find sales, how do you expect to succeed?
Our STING Report is a complete & comprehensive marketing plan
that will help you to identify:
What makes you unique,
How to market to your clients,
How to communicate your value,
How to measure your marketing goals,
How to set your marketing goals,
Who your competitors are,
Who your ideal client is,
& More!
Your STING Report starts with an in-depth discovery meeting with our team. We will go through a thorough question session, of course with coffee, to ensure we completely understand what you do, who you are, and what is important to you.
Then we go to work. Through our own creative genius (or deep brainstorming) sessions we construct the carefully and incredibly specialized marketing plan, just for you.
Who are you? What do you do? Why do you do it?
What is your goal? Until you can clearly communicate why you are in business, you can’t figure out what makes you different, what value you provide, or really anything else. You have to understand the reason why you provide your products or services to understand how you will use them to solve problems for others.
This is step 1 and through a thorough conversation we will help you to identify the passion and purpose behind what you do every day.
Anyone can describe the benefits of their products or services. What sets your marketing apart and creates the desire for someone to purchase is conveying your value.
No one cares what your actual product is. What matters to your new customer is how your product is going to solve a problem they have. We will help you to understand the actual problems you are solving and the value that creates for the consumer. Once we know this we can start working on your differentiation and unique selling proposition.
That’s a valid question. Information is only as useful as how it is used. You must understand how implementing your marketing plan lines up with accomplishing your business plan. Once you can understand how the two work together, you have the ability to execute. You can use the roadmap of your marketing plan to accomplish your goals, which allows you to fulfill your vision. You need all 3 to have success in business; Vision, Goals, and a Plan.
You can’t create a military strategy without including the enemy in your plans. Nor can you plan your marketing without understanding who your competitors are, how they are marketing, and how they are differentiating themselves from you.
It is impossible to establish your differentiation analysis and to determine your Unique Selling Proposition without understanding your competitors, and in detail.
Arguably the most neglected and undervalued questions in business. So many businesses will tell us “CUSTOMER SERVICE!”, when asked what makes them better than their competitors. Guess what? YOU. ARE. WRONG. You have to know what makes your business different from every single competitor in your market. You have to understand with depth what makes you UNIQUE.
Then, once you actually know what your Unique Selling Proposition is, you have to market it until the cows come home. It should be in your slogan, in your mission, and in your Cheerios. You need to eat, breathe, and smell your USP. Everyone should know it because it’s all they should hear. This is what your business and your marketing is based on. This is why your customers buy from you over another.
Don’t worry, our team is ready to help you identify and market the most important piece of information about your business.
Everyone, right? Nope. Everyone over 18? Wrong again. Women? Nope.
