Business Marketing Strategy


Marketing a product is necessary to improve your product business. If the increased promotion of the product will find customers who need a product that is desired. Appropriate method of marketing product is strategic opportunity to enhance your product business.

To increase your market share, the first place you want to look for improvements in your business is with your marketing campaign. Most marketing campaigns can be improved on, no matter how many products are sold or how many customers buy the product.

There are still people out there not buying the product. To reach a bigger percentage of the masses, try some of these marketing secrets to add some spice to your marketing campaign:

Use comedy and/or sexual innuendos. This generally works best for television commercials and can work for poster printing, if done correctly. Save the comedy and the sex for snack foods or other "light" products that no one will have deep ties to. For instance, Bachelors Super Noodles used a commercial that featured a young man offering his girfriend the rest of his plate of Super Noodles, only after he saw his dog take a mouthful.

Give your potential customers something free. When people get products or services free, they feel more appreciative and they might feel like they need to give something back in return. What they give back does not necessarily have to bd a purchase-they can give back their feedback or just their time.

To get the word out, use your poster printing budget to create posters that tout a free product if someone shows up at your store. You could also mail out or hang advertising flyers in supermarkets touting a free product if people will go to your Web Site and request it. This drives traffic to your Web site and you also get customer contact information to use later.

Take time to get to know your customers. Engage in small talk when customers are perusing your store. Alternatively, if you are taking an order over the phone, you can ask them questions about themselves that are not too intrusive such as if they have kids or a dog (this work well if you can hear the kids or dog in the background).

People love to talk about themselves so it should not be too hard to get them to open up. Once they give you some information, use it to create advertising flyers, brochures and other marketing materials that are directed right at them. Of course, you would not do this on an individual basis- your flyer printing budget would be through the roof! However, you probably have a decent-sized group within your target market that has kids, or that are pet lovers.
