Marketing Challenge: Getting Potential Buyers to Know About You

     One way to ensure that your business is known is to advertise so much that everyone who might be a customer someday knows about your business. It's a completely different approach to identify your most likely buyers, understand their buying process, and earn their business by helping them get answers to their questions solve their problems, and meet their needs.

     The first approach can be effective. It is also expensive; often using mass media like radio, TV, direct mail, outdoor, print, and other media to cast a broad net. If you take the second approach, which we call customer buying cycle marketing, you can target you message and media to influence active buyers as they move through their own buying journey.  This method is less expensive, generates higher returns on your marketing dollars, and enables you to generate add-on sales based on your relationship and referrals.

     Digital media like email, the Internet and mobile phones have changed how buyers get information. Just take a look at the image below from Norton-Norris which compares the old and new buying cycles for students looking at colleges;
