It’s hard not to take it personally, which can bring up feelings of doubt, hurt, disappointment and even embarrassment. But for the savvy, “I’m gonna make it happen” business owner, there’s no such thing as failure – there’s only feedback.

When the feedback you get is an audience that’s not buying, it’s time to take a look at the offer you’re making.

There are two levels to creating a compelling offer. I want to share some of the tips from my Passion for Profit coaching program on what you can do in the development stage to ensure that you’re creating an offer your audience won’t be able to resist. (Then, next time in Part 2 we’ll look at how to present the offer in the most desirable light.)

Here are four clear-cut and simple tips you can use to be certain you’re putting your time and energy into offers that will get snapped up!

It’s tempting to create a product or program focused on something you know your audience needs. My advice – don’t do it. People are notorious for not buying what they need, but instead spending their money on what they want. I call this the broccoli vs. ice cream syndrome.

When in doubt about whether the topic you’re considering is ice cream or broccoli, ask your audience. Pick up the phone, send out an email, put together a survey. You’ll be surprised at how happy they are to steer you in the right direction.

Irresistible Offer Tip #2 – Give It a Mouth-Watering Title

Titles (like headlines and subject lines) serve an absolutely crucial role in your sales and marketing – they capture your audience’s attention. The goal, of course, is for your title to create a powerful incentive for your potential client to want to buy. So it has to reach out and grab them and motivate them into action.

So spend some time on crafting a really delicious title for your product, program, event, workshop, ebook or home study course. Some tips for a great title: it’s specific, it is conversational rather than salesy, it’s curiosity-provoking, it highlights benefits and results rather than features, it’s not overly clever or cute.

I usually recommend to my clients they spend at least as much time on the title as they do on the content itself. Yes, it’s that important!

Irresistible Offer Tip #3 – Add On a Tempting and Relevant Bonus

For me, the key word here is “relevant.” Adding a bonus (or two or three) can certainly increase the appeal of your package. But too often, I see folks throwing on things that are totally unrelated to the main offer. The point of a bonus is to give that extra nudge that tips people off the fence. If I’m considering your business building program, I’m not likely to be swayed by a bonus e-book on organic recipes or an audio about feng shui. (Not that those aren’t interesting and valuable subjects in the right context.)

The best bonus directly supports the results offered by the main package component. Ask yourself: Would this [whatever the bonus is] clearly add to the value of what I’m getting? If the answer is no, head back to the drawing board.

Irresistible Offer Tip #4 – Determine the Value Before You Set the Price

Price is often the first thing business owners want to figure out when they’re creating a new product, program or event. But as I counsel my clients, it’s usually the last phase of your program-development process.

Here’s why – it’s hard to determine a fair price until you’re clear on what is being offered, both in terms of “deliverables” and results. Secondly, other factors can come into play as you determine the “magic number.” There are times when it makes strategic sense to price a program on the low end. For example, if it’s a new –and untried- offering (it then becomes paid learning), or so you can draw more people into it and have a bigger pool for your upsell offer.

Tie Your Offers Up with a Red Ribbon

Your special brand of transformation is important in helping your clients solve their current challenges. The content of what you offer is always showcased by the “wrapping” you give it. When you think strategically and creatively about your topic, title, bonuses and pricing, you can create a “pretty package” that’s easy for them to say ‘yes’ to.

Branding is about the business and how a business is different from the competitors. The purpose of a brand is to distinguish yourself from your competitors. Once you make a distinguishing impact then an advertising campaign can be much more effective.

The success of a company can be determined by a brand. Branding includes many factors which help a company be successful. these factors may include a website, marketing efforts, and anything that gives a company an identity. Consumers trust wholeheartedly a corporate image because there is a psychology in motivating the purchasing decisions.

All companies should practice branding. Brick and mortar business and online companies benefit through branding methods. It is common for smaller companies and online businesses to fail due to a lack of understanding about the importance and factors of a good brand.

Branding ensures professionalism with a company. It seals the deal on an entire package. A small company with a brand looks just as good as a large corporation when they practice the right techniques. Brands enhance your confidence as a business owner but also in the consumers that you really can deliver what you promise.

Branding offers consistency with a business. It gives direction to employees and customers know what to expect. Consistency can be performed through the use of things like business cards, t-shirts, and more. Consistency includes visibility techniques that are professional and will remain in the memory of a consumer.

One concept that consumers often attach to a brand is called brand equity. A brand is often considered to be an asset also. For example, if you have developed a very good brand that is well known as being a top distributor of massage chairs and you have a competitor with a brand known to provide defective products, your brand will be worth more.

What color is the McDonald’s logo?  Do you know why they chose yellow and red?  Yellow stimulates people’s metabolism, while red increases the heart and breathing rate.  The combination of colors makes people subconsciously eat more food faster and then move on.  This reinforces McDonald’s “fast food” marketing message.  Color can influence people’s behavior far more than they realize.  If you understand this, you can use it to your advantage.

Another example of color psychology at work is adult toy websites.  These sites typically use an abundance of black, red, and pink – all colors which are associated with romance, seduction, and sexuality.  Children’s sites are comprised of an abundance of primary colors.  This isn’t just a random choice.  Bright colors are exciting and encourage a response from children more than a calming pastel scheme does.

The difficulty with color psychology is that, like language, different colors have distinctive meaning associated with a color.  In the United States, white is associated with purity and cleanliness, but in China it is the color of funerals and mourning.  In Brazil, purple is associated with death.  Yellow connotates happiness in the Unites States, while the opposite meaning of sadness is more common in Greece and in France yellow equates with jealousy.  Since different cultures have wildly different meanings associated with color, how can you successfully market without offending someone?  Simply consider your target demographic and their preferences.

Perhaps that you are a loyal, sophisticated, and stable business.  A blue and gray color scheme would support this message.  Or maybe a brown, white, and green scheme to promote an organic, clean, and growing business.  What message do you want to send?  What colors would best reinforce that message?

But just how do you build your database by thousands within a few shorts days?

Easy! Exhibit at trade shows!

Trade shows and or exhibitions are a fantastic way to attract targeted clientele within a short period of time. Some of the more successful expo strategies that I have seen have attracted upwards of 2000 plus new leads within a couple of short days.

But it isn’t just as simple as putting up a couple of posters and laying out brochures on the table. There are careful considerations to be made;

1. Where Is The Traffic Flow Going?

Typically when attendees attend an exhibition, they will walk in and turn to the left to make there way around the expo in that direction. Why? When was the last time you drove on the right hand side of the road? Unless of course you are an American you won’t do it.

In knowing this you will strategically purchase an expo stand on the left hand side not far from the entry to capture people whilst they are fresh in the door.

2. Promote One Message And One Message Only

You literally have about 5 seconds to grab someone’s attention whilst they are walking past your expo stand. By promoting too many things in the view to sell lots of services and products, you in fact hinder yourself because their eyes have no specific message they are drawn too, they feel overwhelmed and walk by.

If you are looking at building your database by hundreds if not thousands, focus on promoting a competition and giving away your core product or service to one lucky winner. Everyone is a sucker for a good competition and will freely opt in to your database for the chance of winning!

3. Follow Up

Now that you are in the prime position for the traffic flow and you are promoting your one core message and attracting the leads, you will need a kick arse follow up strategy for after the expo.

This may be a follow up phone call (will always get a better response), hosting an information session with key topics relevant to your database and your product and services, or booking in for individual “free” consultations to further discuss how your business can assist them.

Whatever it is, be sure that it is ready to go within 48 hours after the close of the expo. If you leave it too late the database will become cold and when you try and touch base with them weeks after they will simply accuse you of being a spammer.

There you have it, simply yet incredibly powerful techniques to build your database by thousands within a short weekend.

The blueprint—essentially a definition of the business goals, strategies, tactics and procedures—is developed by subject-matter experts, will have withstood the test of time, and enables a franchise owner to concentrate on leading and managing an enterprise within, and supported by, a proven framework. This is reflected by the significantly-higher success rate of new franchise operations compared to non-franchise businesses start-ups. Planning, then, is a key ingredient in any successful business.

Indeed, the US entrepreneur T. Boone Pickens has a favourite saying that: “A fool with a plan can outsmart a genius with no plan!”

Planning isn’t the only ingredient to business success – but it is certainly the most critical! And of all aspects of business planning, none is more important than in planning the marketing, whose primary purpose is to generate revenue. 

The marketing function

Contrary to popular belief, ‘marketing’ is not synonymous with sales or advertising. (Of course, this isn’t helped by the many salespeople who call themselves marketers!) Marketing isn’t advertising – it actually concentrates on strategic growth. That is, it’s concerned with the growth of revenue or, in other words, increasing the income that flows from customers.

As a business owner or business manager you have three basic ways to increase your company’s sales revenue. You can:

•  increase the number of customers,

•  increase the sales amount generated by each customer, or

•  increase the frequency of each customer’s transactions with your company.

Sounds simple, doesn’t it? Admittedly, there will always be additional factors that influence the ultimately-realised profit, such as the cost of serving additional customers or in increased distribution expenses. However, recognising how these three basic concepts affect your company will help in understanding the importance of constantly reviewing and analysing your customers’ needs to increase your value to those customers.

Being customer-centric

The main tools available to achieve one or all of the three customer revenue growth concepts include optimising the product and service mix, correctly identifying and understanding current and future customers, and creating effective communications between the company and its clients. How successful you will be is dependent upon:

•  how clearly you understand the motivations of the customers,

•  the internal and external constraints within which your company operates,

•  ensuring that your customers’ needs are met by your company’s business strategies and business tactics, and

•  communicating this to customers as effectively as possible.

Clearly, customer service is a central element in marketing – that is, in meeting customer needs and expectations. This is indeed an essential component of any successful marketing effort and represents the majority of the five key elements of the marketing phases:

1. Identifying who your current and future customers are;

2. Understanding your customers’ needs;

3. Developing or adapting your products or services to meet your customers’ needs;

4. Developing and implementing marketing communication strategies; and

5. Monitoring the effectiveness of each marketing communication strategy, and either improving or removing those underperforming efforts.

Strategic planning

Costly errors often occur because time is not initially spent on the critical tasks of researching and understanding the customers. Too many people waste time by jumping straight into the fray and creating advertising campaigns because traditional wisdom says that this is what’s needed to “market” their products or services. Although a traditional advertising campaign might be a valid tool in your endeavour, it should actually be the last step in your marketing process.

Marketing plans are a very effective place to start, and don’t necessarily have to be large or complex documents, although they should address the following key seven issues:

1. What is your company identity? Who are you, and what customer needs do you satisfy? Who is your target market? What is an ideal customer profile?

2. What are the objectives of your marketing efforts? What is your current market position and where do you plan to take the company. How do you intend to get to this position from here? What is the timeframe? What will it cost, and what do you need to do to ensure this growth? What is the size of your market, and what percentage of this market do you intend to capture?

3. How will you achieve these objectives? What marketing tactics will you employ? Why those tactics? Which tactics are likely to provide the highest return-on-investment? How will you monitor the performance and effectiveness of these tactics? Who will monitor, control and, if necessary, adjust those tactics? What historical tactics have you employed? What did they cost and what revenue did they generate?

4. Perform a SWOT (strength, weakness, opportunity and threat) analysis on your company. You could concentrate on comparing your pricing, placement (or distribution), product, promotion, processes, perception, and people with your competitors. Consider what your customers love about you? What do they dislike about you?

5. Who are these competitors, and what are their strengths and weaknesses? What do customers love about them? What do they dislike about them?

6. What is your niche or unique selling proposition? This can also be defined in terms of pricing, placement (or distribution), product, promotion, processes, perception, and people.

7. What is your marketing budget? Is this budget realistic and sufficient to achieve your strategic goals? How does it compare to industry norms?

Marketing communications

When creating your main marketing messages, there is always the temptation to focus on yourself, on your internal processes, or on your products. This should be resisted! Instead, ask yourself these customer-centric questions:

•  How much do I know about my customers? For example, are there clearly-discernable customer groups who account for major portions of my sales? Are there some groups of customers who are easier or cheaper to deal with than others? Do I have undesirable customers and am I wasting time and money trying to gain their business?

•  Why do customers buy from me, and who else are they buying from? Why do they buy from these competitors and not me?

•  What benefits do my products or services provide?

•  How do my customers find out about my company’s products or services? For example, if you use on-line promotions, where do my customers land after clicking on banner links or on Google Adword campaigns? Do they land on a targeted landing page that gives immediate and relevant information concerning the promotion, or on a generic home page?

•  What are my customers dissatisfied with? What can I do to increase my customers’ satisfaction with my company?

•  Are there other products or services that I can offer my customers to satisfy their needs? Or, can I optimise what I offer by reducing the number of products and services I sell but still meet my customers’ needs?

Return-on-investments (ROI)

Metrics! The wise marketing manager understands the basics of each distinct marketing communications campaign that is used, including the cost and the return (or effectiveness) from each of those channels. For example, do you know which of your advertising streams is generating the highest returns, which are below industry average and, if they aren’t performing, which should be targeted for improvement or removal? Are they providing you with feedback on how your product or service mix should be adjusted?

Don’t allow yourself to be lulled into a false sense of security based upon historical performance. All markets are dynamic, and marketing tactics that worked last year or last month may be underperforming today. Testing, measuring and analysing your marketing efforts should be regular, on-going tasks that allow you to continually validate the effectiveness of each marketing tactic.

The changing face of advertising

Advertising is currently undergoing a revolution. Indeed, the viability of the business model supporting newspapers is becoming increasingly uncertain due to the shrinking revenue base from traditional print advertisement. This has been caused by consumer empowerment resulting from the widespread use of the world wide web, whereby people no longer rely solely on untargeted and mass-appeal advertising to gain product awareness.

Consumer purchasing behaviour is generally becoming more sophisticated—people are increasingly performing their own online market research and comparative product analysis. This has resulted in the decreased influence of mass-market advertising (such as from newspapers) and interruption advertising (such as TV or radio advertisements), and the evolution of surgically-targeted messages containing individually-relevant information which are now at the forefront in marketing communication tactics.

Need help?

Marketing is a different game to what it was in the “old” days—i.e., pre 1996, before the widespread adoption of the internet! A decade ago, it can be argued that marketing and advertising were essentially the same beast, it was primarily a creative effort, and it was generally true that:

Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is, I don’t know which half!
- John Wanamaker

Today, savvy business owners and managers insist—quite properly—on measureable returns and results from their marketing budget. You may wish to consider revisiting your marketing strategies and tactics, or seek help from experienced marketing professionals, if you have trouble answering any of these statements:

1.  I know where my business is positioned and where I plan to take it. For example, I know the size of my available markets, how much market-share I currently enjoy, and how much of it I plan to own.

2.  I have a plan to achieve this growth, and this plan is current and relevant.

3.  I know which of my products or services generate the majority of my business, and by how much.

4.  I run a number of marketing campaigns and I know which ones are giving me my best returns on investment and how much each adds to my top line.

5.   My website does not resemble an online brochure. It is a hard-working marketing tool that provides me with relevant data on consumer behaviour.

6.   My customers know what sets me apart from my competitors, and I enjoy customer loyalty and high rates of repeat business.

7.  I have asked my customers why they purchase from me and how I can continue to improve my levels of performance.

8.  The records of my existing customer are accurate, useful, and generate an important part of my business revenue.

9.  My sales-conversion rates are excellent and above industry averages.

It is unfortunate that many marketing efforts are misdirected, unfocused, unmeasured—and wasted. Although marketing mistakes are invariably costly, creating the right marketing plan, strategies and tactics will build your business and increase revenue.

When determining the goodwill of a brand, you need to look at the endorsement it receives from the market. The best brands seek to keep in touch with modern social trends of its target market. Brand goodwill also involves the manner the brand handles positive and negative issues brought about by external forces.

When it comes to long term strategy, a business brand should come up with creative ways of ensuring that its position in the market is strengthened. For example, affiliate programs are affected by the opinions of its associates. Therefore, it is vital that the affiliates understand your brand well enough hence influence the decision making of its customers.

A goodwill branding strategy should strive to continually receive favorable recommendation from the media and customers. In addition, customers should be convinced of the value of the business or product. By doing this, it will help cushion the business in times of economic crisis.

Sponsoring is a perfect strategy of ensuring the goodwill of a product or business. It would be preferable to do this on important events of the calendar so as to have more effect. Also, these sponsoring activities need to be in line with the promises of the brand.

Branding is an important marketing tool since it brings a feeling of ownership and thus customers would definitely love to be associated with successful brand name.

Good marketing strategies should ideally create a certain business image brand, hence realize that your target market has a particular expectation about the product or service you are trying to promote and it is vital to meet these expectations. Failure to meet these expectations will result in your clients being disgruntled and they will surely end up trying other products.

To have an edge over your competitors, be clear about what makes your services stand out. By doing this, you are able to track whether your competitors are trying to duplicate the features of your products/services. In addition, you are in a position to concentrate on communicating to your customers on the unique aspects especially when your competitors are finding it difficult to copy your products/services.

A good product performance that meets the expectations of your customers will definitely improve the image of your company and thus result in a strong business brand. Create an atmosphere for your workers to be innovative, thus your competitors will constantly be trying to catch up with you. Also, try to make it expensive for your competitors to duplicate your products. Even more importantly, be on top of your customers needs and continuously work towards thinking ahead of them.

Expansion in sales volume often requires more effort and more attention depending on the needs of the customers. More thought should go into the selling process and perhaps longer hours and greater effort must put into improving customer relationships and services. However, any such exercise must be closely monitored to ensure that the extra cost incurred does not exceed the additional sales made or the results will be negated.

This is because, thinking that profits will increase by the same margin as sales made, might actually be wrong. In reality, the increase in profit rarely rises constantly. A business owner can opt to lower total cost and so enable his/her business to operate with a higher profit margin to obtain a higher volume of business. Another option could be to lower prices or offer some other inducement; such as free delivery.

In these circumstances, the profit percentage may just fall. Is there an advantage in selling more products at a lower profit rather than fewer at a higher profit? How far is such a decision related to forecasts of future sales? Such questions should be pondered by any business management as they weigh the choices open to the organization. In addition, they should be able to predict what the market response might be at different volumes of sales and output, so as to make the best decisions.

Now, I want to talk to you about how we can take you and really give you a home to makeover, and get you beyond that point of being under construction all the time. One of the things that I spend a lot of time on is when I’m doing my advertising, consulting or marketing, is I challenge myself, my managers, my sales people, my marketing department, and more importantly my clients, to really look at what’s working and what’s not working, what’s producing results for you and what’s not producing results for you… and start getting rid of the “nots”… the things that just aren’t fit and working for your business. I want to share to you a couple of core principles to think about. When you’re really, really busy, you really got to drill down and identify what’s going to make you the most amount of money; and I’m going to share with you a couple of secrets. I always hear my doctors tell me they’re busy; they’re overwhelmed; they have staff issues and money issues, etc. Now, what I want you to think about is that when you take on the role and idea of becoming a business owner, the first thing you got to realize is that’s kind of a part of the deal! In your dentist practice, you’re going to have staff issues and capacity issues (well, hopefully because you’re going to have patients coming in to your door; and then you are constantly improving the quality of the patients that you have within your practice.. and if you’re not, you need to start thinking about that for the management of your dentist practice!). Now if you don’t have a ton of referrals, and if you’re not having higher case sizes with every patient, then you got to ask yourself these 4 important questions:

1. Are we delivering the services that we’re offering in a high level of care and treatment so that people would want to refer to us?

In your dentist practice, you have to make sure that you will be taking good care of your patients by offering the best service, care and treatment to them so that they would want to refer to you, and that they’d also stay always in your practice!

1. Are we giving the population of people out there nowadays what they really want and precisely what they’re looking for?

Now, people don’t want to go to a dental office, a dentist website, or get a direct mail that doesn’t make sense to them! And the same thing is that when they go to the Internet and type in the keywords “dental implant” and then “your town”; or “cosmetic dentist” and then “your town”; they’re looking for precisely what those keywords will give them… and they’re searching for websites that they don’t have to look much further on where they’re at! Now Google’s number one responsibility (as they continue to grow and evolve) is to allow our customers easier use, you know, so easier use for customers. Now who are their customers? Is it me and you? Well, the fact that we’re being in a business, we’re utilizing Google that way! But the customers are the people who search; because the better the searches are, the more people will use it, then they can charge their advertisers… and it’s a positive cycle. Now think about this: is the website that you have up giving people what they want when they find it? Is it answering their questions? Is it an educational tool that also sells dentistry? You see, just having a website up there doesn’t mean anything, especially if it’s out there and it’s not a good sales tool. A good example is that if in your dentist practice you have hygienists or assistants that can’t sell dentistry, one quick and easy way that instantly improve your income is to teach them how. So if you have a website that doesn’t have those tools, you’re not going to get patients up there!

1. Are you getting traffic to your site?

Now the thing is that most people are going to say: “No, we’re not getting traffic to our site!” And that’s a problem. It is because if you don’t have traffic, how can you get patients from it? So if it is out there just collecting “cyber dust”, then you dont have a true traffic-generating, patient-converting, and direct-response oriented website! You just have this thing out there that is just not working for you!

1. What are your plans to completely dominate and get to the top of the search engines over the next year, or two years, or three years, etc.?

The fact of the matter here is that 70% of the patients go to the Internet. So, what are we doing to position ourselves? Set yourself in a position that will get your site to the top of Google, and make that you stay in that position for a very long time, so that all the traffic will lead to your site… and then get more patients into your dentist practice!

Now, the last thing here is when you’re so busy and you’re so overwhelmed, you would ask yourself: ” How sure am I that my marketing is working?”. I’ll tell you one secret for this. For me, what I do is that I make sure that I have prospects and clients coming to my business on a daily basis, and we call that “traffic”. Whether it’s through the Internet, direct mail, trade magazines, word of mouth, or through tele-seminars that we’re doing, any of that kind of stuff, it doesn’t matter! We are constantly looking at traffic so that we can consistently have a flow on the percentage of people that are going to be converting on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Now, if you can get it up to the point where you know that for every 20 leads you get, you convert 2 to 3 patients out of it. You need to have a mathematical formula that all you need to do is get more traffic. So if you can get 20 leads, with 2 to 3 patients, imagine what you would do if you’d have 10% conversion ratio! Now, if you have a hundred leads, and you get a 10% conversion ratio, then that’s 10 patients! And how much more for 200 leads? So it’s really just math at this point! And for us, we segment our practice from Cosmetic, Implant, Sedation, Sleep Apnea, and TMJ. This is because, for example, we have head ache sufferers, and if they type in “TMJ” and look for dentistry in their town they don’t want to go to a website that talks about Implants, or talks about Cosmetic Dentistry. They’re looking to solve their pain! Seniors who are searching for a website about dentures, or about solving their frustrations, or their dental problems and their looking for dental implants, they want to go to a website that can help them! Always remember that you’re patients don’t want to be going through a long route and maze to find the answer. So, in the management of your dentist practice, always make sure that you have what your patients want… and that you can give them the best service that you have all the time!

So if you are a business owner and you have a number of customers that you need to express your gratitude to, then there is no better way to do this than through sending them gifts. This will not only please your customers and encourage more of their loyalty, but this will also make them tell their friends about you and will possibly recommend that they patronize your products or services.

Here are just among the most popular promotional gifts that you could give to your customers that they could use for an entire year:

• Pocket and Desk Diaries. Even if there are already electronic diaries available as well as hand-held planners, there are still a lot of people who prefer the more tangible and conventional pocket and desk diaries. In fact, these are among the most popular promotional gifts that a lot of businesses buy at the end of each year. Remember that a high-quality diary with an embossed leather cover is always better than the digital one.
• Calendars. Coming in different designs, sizes, and shapes, inexpensive desk calendars are more popular than the more costly wall calendars that come in full color. There are a lot of businesses that prefer to give these calendars because as they are used daily, your company’s logo and details can be seen by your targeted clientele the whole year through. There are a great number of themes available for these calendars and these include cars, wildlife, funny cartoons, and trains. The manufacturers of such calendars will be able to present a catalogue to you so the choices can be presented to you.
• Paper Trays. A lot of businesses prefer to give out these items because they are placed on desks the whole year round, thus promoting your business as well. These are also available in different prices, making it fit whatever budget you have.

So if you are planning on sending gifts to your customers, then there is no reason for you not to send them promotional gifts. However, while you can choose from the different kinds of gifts available, it is always best to personalize the items you chose, so they would convey the image of your company. This would make your customers remember you always every time they use the gifts you gave.

Promotion Products is all about making sure you are aware of the widest range of products that are going on the Web.
