Are you following a hope strategy?

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Do you know where your leads and sales are coming from? Can you predict sales for the following month or quarter? Or are you simply following a hope strategy? This is where you hope that leads will come in, based on your loose assortment of marketing activities.

Lots of people feel unsatisfied by marketing. They believe it doesn’t work, or it is expensive, or they can’t tell if it is working. Some marketing professionals are guilty of exacerbating this view by their tendency to oversell. How many times have you heard: “you just need to do this one thing and your sales will fly!”

Marketing does work, but not overnight, and there is no silver bullet, no magic formula. Good marketing is consistently delivered and regularly monitored so that you can see what works and what doesn’t. Unless you analyse the results of what you have done, you cannot work out what is working and what is not.

Once you are measuring where your leads and sales are coming from, you then can stop the marketing activities that aren’t producing you any results. Obviously this process takes time, you need time to see what is happening and track the results, but then you will be able to concentrate your activities in the areas where you are having the best results. This will make your marketing become an investment rather than a waste.

But you cannot refine your marketing program unless you are measuring and monitoring the results. Only then can you begin to build a strong marketing campaign based on the unique needs of your business.

If you are struggling to design, implement and monitor your marketing campaign, why not outsource your marketing? With our Marketing Manager program, you will have an experienced marketing professional working with you to ensure that your marketing relies on more than just hope.
