The Do's And Do Not's Of Marketing

By Maryl Joop


Marketing is a key ingredient for the success of any startup business or organization. Marketing is likewise the lifeblood for a business that wishes to see growth, or, for that matter, longevity and sustained success.

That is why developing a sound marketing strategy is a vital step towards success for those companies that are just starting or for those that have seen a lag in their profits and production. With the right industrial marketing strategy in place, a business will be able to compete with their competitors and sell their products or services with a greater amount of success.

There are several ways to go about building an industrial marketing strategy that will work to promote the products or services of a business, but the following few tips on how to appropriately build a marketing strategy should be helpful for those startup companies that have little to no knowledge of how to develop and implement a marketing campaign.

But far too often, this key component of marketing is seen more as the little brother or helpful aid to the larger picture of sales. And in all honesty that may be the extent of marketing-a way to drive sales.

There are many various lists of the do's and do not's of marketing, but at least the most basic ideas and principles to adhere to or shy away from can be derived from looking at a few of the lists that others have published. Only a few of the most basic do and do not's of industrial marketing will appear here.

Once these key features to a marketing strategy have been developed and organized, a startup company will have built for themselves a framework or skeleton outline of what the rest of their marketing strategy can be.

Because there is more likely than not another product or service already on the market that is similar to a company's own product or service, a company will have to do their homework to see what the market for these similar products or services are and what prices are being rated by other companies for those services. By doing this, a company will be able to formulate their own plan on how to market their product that will be different (and therefore more visible) from the other company's marketing campaigns for their products or services.

From this foundational framework of a marketing strategy, a startup business can delve further into their market research to further develop their marketing strategy. Performing adequate market research is essential to developing a marketing strategy that will be successful.

While performing their marketing research, a startup company will want to ask questions such as who is the target market, how big is that market, and what avenues could be pursued to expand the target market in the future?

With a wider scope on their marketing campaigns, a company can use their investment in marketing to not only drive sales of specific items but to incorporate their marketing strategy into the system of sales and expansion that will form the upward spiral of success that all companies are searching for.
