The Marketing Secret You've Been Missing

I was asked for the"secrets" I have for marketing. The biggest secret is this: *drum roll* Vertical specialization *Jedi Wave* "this is the secret you've been looking for" Really? Yes, really. Based on metric fscktonnes of research (that's the technical term) I conducted, and reading the research of others, I believe that positioning your business as specializing in a single vertical is the "magic bullet" that will result in more leads & sales than any other marketing strategy. Why is it a secret? Because niching down to a single vertical scares the crap out of people. There are loads of reasons to fear it: it's turning down opportunity (somewhat valid but doesn't really happen) or "I'll get bored just working in one industry" (highly unlikely, as you specialize you find deeper, more interesting problems.) And it's also difficult, and time consuming, and lots of other problems. But it's worthwhile. What's my call to action? Simple: don't just take my word for it: Listen to Wolfram Moritz and Brad Farris and Jonathan Stark and Sara Dunn and Louis Grenier on the Marketing for Consultants podcast. Go read Philip Morgan's "The Positioning Manual for Indie Consultants" where he walks you through how and why to specilize.  Read the Business of Expertise from David C. Baker where he lists the pros and cons of vertical vs horizontal specialization.  Read Spiraling Up from Lee Frederiksen & Aaron E. Taylor.  In fact, check out everything from Hinge, including Kelly J. Waffle's interview with Yitzi Weiner in the Thrive Global Community. Thank you for attending my TED rant.

If you haven't listened to the last few episodes, we've been talking about all things social selling and how you can leverage it as an interior product company. We also discussed specific social selling campaigns that led to a few successes. Today's episode is about digital experiences and the touch points to focus on to keep designers engaged on their journey with your brand. We discuss everything from coming to the trade show booth, touching the fabric, leaving with the fabric, and going on their merry way.  One of the major concerns regarding social selling is designers rejecting digital experiences or their initial thoughts of digital experiences: ZOOM MEETINGS. So, if designers are “zoomed out,” is there any other strategy that you can use? Recently, Nicole, CEO of Thrive In Design, talked with a few designers who had these sentiments and came up with strategies to help you with social selling, digital-physical experiences, and engaging people in a unique and innovative way.  Join this conversation with your host, Nicole, as she shares three things you should focus on to integrate digital experiences with your designers to level up your social selling, social engagements, and customer journey in a 360 perspective. Learn how to leverage the tools out there and those yet to exist to stand out and engage designers before they come to your trading show booth, while they are there, and even after.   Ready to jump in?   Key Highlights from the Episode: [00:01] Episode intro and what's in for you today [01:15] Social selling and a recap of what we discussed in episodes 5&6  [01:50] The Ultimate Guide to A&D sales, 90 days planner  [04:12] 3 things to focus on to integrate digital experiences with designers  [05:21] Messaging [10:39] Digital tools  [17:16] Reimagining in-real-life experiences  [21:30] Quick recap  [22:29] Episode wrap-up and calls to action Notable Quotes:  “Messaging provides the words that help customers and prospects understand a firm's value (why it's useful) and values (what it believes in).” LEE FREDERIKSEN, PH.D. (blog: Hinge Marketing) Get clear on your messaging and how you are delivering it through different touch points with designers.  Whether you're doing social selling or any other sales strategies, if the messaging is not clear, it will not be effective.  Go against the grain and just do something different: Think outside the box, test out a new idea, see how it aligns with designers, then tweak and go from there.  In real life experiences are here to stay, but it is time to shake things a bit; it is time to innovate in a way that stands out.

Don't give clients whatever they ask for. The most fatal blind spot lies in audience knowledge.These are a few of the lessons from the stories Liz Harr, Partner, Hinge (https://hingemarketing.com/), shared with Daniel Burstein in Episode #6 of the How I Made It in Marketing podcast.Some lessons from Harr that emerged in our discussion:Don't give clients whatever they ask for: When a tech client wanted to name its conference CapCon, Harr's team did some competitive research and discovered that it was the name of an annual convention for age players – also known as adults who dress up like toddlers and tykes.The most fatal blind spot lies in audience knowledge: Harr worked with a client whose website messaging centered on the fact that everyone on the team came from a Big Four accounting firm. While the messaging was designed to reassure prospects, Harr's team interviewed executives from deals the firm lost and discovered this messaging communicated something else…A-team rates for basic administrative tasks.  Keep friends close and your enemies closer…because enemies can make great partners: When Harr owned a VAR (value added reseller), collaborating with and ultimately merging with a competitor ended up saving both companies during the financial collapse of 2008…and it all began by networking with one of their biggest competitors.Harr also shared lessons she learned from the people she collaborated with in her career: Junya Sugimoto of the Ministry of Education at Yao Shi Precinct in Osaka taught her to just be. Her first job right out of college was at the Japanese Ministry of Education. One day her boss sat her down for a heart-to-heart talk about how to make a bigger impact by bringing more of her real self to work – the part of her that enjoyed listening to people, making connections with them, and working as part of a team with the same goals. Shams Zaman, CFO, Technologist taught her the power that your own stories have to connect more effectively with others: Harr was asked to help run a side business, a car dealership. It didn't work out, and she was fired. Her boss (Zaman) told her, “Sometimes, the worst moments in life are the launch pads for getting us to where we're really meant to be.” She has used this story and moment of vulnerability to connect with people reporting to her throughout her career. Lee Frederiksen, Managing Partner, Hinge taught her that our peers play a key role in our development as leaders and experts in our field: Frederiksen coached and advised her through business and personal crises when she ran a startup, and Harr went on to work with him at Hinge.Articles (and a keynote video) mentioned in this episode:The Marketer's Blind Spot: 3 ways to overcome the marketer's greatest obstacle to effective messaging (https://meclabs.com/research/lecture/marketing-blindspots-flint-mcglaughlin)Customer-First Marketing: A conversation with Wharton, MarketingSherpa, and MECLABS Institute (https://sherpablog.marketingsherpa.com/consumer-marketing/wharton-interview-customer-first-marketing/)Why You Should Thank Your Competitors (https://sherpablog.marketingsherpa.com/marketing/why-thank-your-competitors/)To receive future episodes of how I Made It In Marketing, sign up to the MarketingSherpa email newsletter at https://marketingsherpa.com/newsletters

Lee Frederiksen of Hinge joined us for this week's episode of Where Accountants Go, the Accounting Careers Podcast. Lee's team approached us with this topic, and we were very excited to have the discussion.  “The Great Resignation” is a phenomenon affecting the entire labor market, and the accounting profession is no exception.  The market was already tight in terms of the number of accountants available versus the number of job opportunities, but with opportunities increasing and some individuals choosing to exit the labor market by choice, the number of open jobs within our field has skyrocketed.  It's a peculiar situation, and although it has its advantages, there are also some dangers as well. In this episode, we will discuss the situation from both the employer's perspective and the job seeker's perspective, because there are opportunities and dangers on both sides.  It's rare that we get to interview a behavioral psychologist on our program, so this was a real treat.  And the topic we discussed is definitely on the cutting edge of current events.
