Strategic Marketing How to Create Fireworks With Strategic Marketing

If you live in a small town like mine on the Connecticut
coast, you'll be spending the 4th of July watching fireworks, along
with your family and friends and everyone else in town. Why
is it that people love fireworks?
Fireworks grab attention with a dazzling display
of color and lots of noise. Unlike the sparkers you can hold in your
hand, the sound and size of fireworks can't be ignored. Imagine
if your marketing was as effective at getting people's attention!
Diane was starting a new business coaching service
and came to me looking for small business marketing fireworks.
She knew that she needed a marketing message, one that described
what she did and would get her prospects' attention. Her
dilemma was that she works with clients to solve numerous
types of problems and instead of having one strategic marketing message,
she had a laundry list of them.
Solving lots of problems is good, but when you are
trying to communicate what you do, it's the equivalent of a handful
of sparklers as compared to having one large attention-getting display.

In order to grab prospects' attention Diane dispensed
with her laundry list of messages and replaced it with one
umbrella marketing message. Here's how to get started on your
own strategic marketing message.
1. List the concerns of your target market relative
to your services. This should generate a list of 10-30 problems you
solve.
2. Organize your list in order of importance to
clients.
What are your clients' primary concerns?
3. Use the most important client concern on your
list as the basis for your marketing message. If you don't have a
summary sentence, then write one.
In our town when a particularly spectacular firework
goes off, the audience ooh's and ahhs. You may not get ooh's and ahhs
from your marketing message but you do want it to prompt prospects
to action.
When you use your marketing message, fireworks or
at least a spark should ignite in your prospects' minds when they
make the connection between their needs and your services. If your
marketing message has done its job, people will ask you how you do
what you do or contact you for more information.
With a brilliant marketing message you'll grab your
prospects' attention, increase opportunities. Want to see your sales
