EP 36: Playing Around with New Marketing Ideas | Alex Furmansky In Episode 36, Alex Furmansky, founder and CEO of Budsies, shares his expertise on all things Amazon and marketing for retailers, and what his company is doing to be successful in the toy business.   Alex starts off the episode by talking about how Budsies was created, as well as his brand strategy when it comes to the expansion of product lines. He also shares his views on the progressive decline of Toys “R” Us and where he believes retail is headed, especially for consumer products. Alex explains how his unique brand is staying successful against online competitors like Amazon and other toy brands. He goes on to give his thoughts regarding the recent Build-A-Bear promotion, and how his company maintains customer relationships to create an “in-store” experience online.   Tyler and Alex also discuss Budsies' marketing strategy and how they capture the attention of not only the child, but the parent as well. He talks about the advantages of using social media to tell a full story versus the idea of traditional advertising. Alex continues to share some of the challenges Budsies is facing due to the unique products they produce, and how they still manage to stick to their mission and give back with their Budsies Pal Program.   Alex ends the conversation by giving his key advice on launching a product and the importance of getting it out into the market and involving the customers.    Join Tyler, Andy, and Alex in this conversation on all things Budsies and how the market is changing for retailers.   Time Stamps   00:00 – Intro 01:16 – What’s in the News | Amazon Alexa 10:52 – Featured Guest Intro | Alex Furmansky 11:00 – Start of Budsies 18:16 – Budsies Brand Strategy 21:16 – Toys “R” Us and the Toy Industry 26:22 – Competing with Amazon and Toy Brands 29:01 – Build-A-Bear Promotion 33:49 – Competing with the In-store Experience 36:35 – Budsies Marketing, Engaging Mom and Dad 41:25 – Customer Acquisition Channels 43:22 – Leveraging Influencers 50:11 – Challenges of Budsies 53:58 – Budsies Pal Program 57:20 – Key Take Away 59:28 – Picking One Channel to Grow the Budsies Brand 1:01:38 – Outro   Featured Guest | Alex Furmanksy  Twitter    Catch Tyler speaking at a conference near you! // Retail Global: RetailGlobal.com   Lion’s Share Marketing Podcast Learn More About Tyler Music Intro Music – Colony House – Buy “2:20” on iTunes Outro Music – Skillet – Buy “Lions” on iTunes

Does the idea of getting your beautiful business in front of hundreds, if not thousands more of your ideal customers excite you. No need to answer that … of course it does! Then join Business Blueprint's Dale Beaumont and I as we detail the 7 steps to creating highly effective partnerships. Here's what else we cover in episode 369 of Australia's #1 marketing podcast: A productivity tool to make your life a whole lot easier I share another low cost marketing idea that ensures you have a ridiculously consistent brand And we go back into the vault, revisiting a past inspiring episode As per usual, there's marketing G.O.L.D. dripping from the ceiling over at Small Business Big Marketing's HQ … So let's get stuck ... right in.   A little bit about today's successful business owner Dale Beaumont: Dale has been helping business owners grow for over a decade with his Blueprint Membership program. He's also the brains behind the 52 Ways live events. I attended the Melbourne one, and boy oh boy, it was incredible. What I love about Dale is his unwavering commitment to helping business owners create a business and lifestyle they love. Plus he practices what he preaches – every business building idea he shares, he's tested in his own business.   Here's what caught my attention from chatting with Dale Beaumont of Business Blueprint: Budsies! I love the idea of Budsies! Dale showed me a photo of the one he'd been sent – it looked just like him! Sending someone one of these is a great way to get their attention. What'd Dale call this tactic? A shock and awe package! Feel free to send me one – Po Box 989, Mt Eliza 3930 :0) Get clear on what you have to give before you put your hand out for the ask. This is pretty much true of anything in life, really? Gary Vaynerchuk also talks at length about this in his book on social media called Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook. The power of partnerships. In my experience, this is a very under-utilised marketing strategy, yet one that has the potential for such a big impact on your business's growth. So, if you liked what Dale had to share, then please … implement it.    Links & Resources mentioned: Dale's business – Business Blueprint Dale's live event – 52 Ways Past episode in which Dale Beaumont shares his growth story How to build confidence with your customers A great resource for finding and hiring freelancers   Please support these businesses who make this show possible: Dale Beaumont's 52 Ways – An amazing free 1-day live event for business owners where you'll discover 52 ways to boost your business profits.

Your kid draws a picture (or you do). Or you take a picture of, say, a half eaten breakfast sandwich. You send that picture in to Budsies, and in just two weeks you get back a stuffed animal of the picture. You can imagine how adorable this gets. And if you can’t, check out Budsies.com, and you can see how awesome it truly is. Listen to Alex Furmansky and his former Wharton prof, Karl Ulrich, talk about where the idea for Budsies came from, how he tested it—and what happened when, a month before Budsie’s first holiday season, the factory making the Budsies closed.
