If you want to make this year a year of new opportunity then you need to take REAL action. Start as you mean to go on!
So what are the 3 things you need to do in order to take REAL action in 2021?
Digital Marketing Education & Implementation
1 - Get a real understanding of you core marketing strategy. We all speak about strategy, but what does it really mean? Strategy is just a fancy word for planning, but don't think this about planning a campaign. Strategy starts with some fundamental positioning of you your products and your business.
This means having a genuine and deep understanding of your targeted audience, the problems you solve for them and the way you deliver those solutions. This takes some thought and planning.
If you take the first element of this understanding, having a deep understanding of your target audience, you should take some time to create a profile of perfect client you are aiming to sell to. This means sitting down and doing a 'ideal customer profile' or ICP.
This is a fundamental marketing discipline that will save you a massive amount of time and money. If you don't have a highly targeted idea of exactly WHO you are selling to will mean that all the effort you put into building products, creating page copy, advertising or designing and creating lead magnets will not be looked at by the people you want to sell to.
It will not resonate with them AT ALL!
Without that profile in your hand you will NEVER be able to understand the problems they need solving and would pay money for. The profile is the first step in creating products and services that people (your audience) actually want.
This is why we include comprehensive training in the FunnelCentrix membership to tackle this fundamental issue. If you get this right then EVERTYTHING you do in your marketing can be based on what your target audience really needs and wants.
It all starts with with lead generation. If you struggle with this aspect of your business, it normally because you haven't hit you perfect clients pain point. So getting this right will solve your lead generation problems in an instant. It will enable you to create Lead Magnets that people (your ICP) is desperate to get their hands on. You can then take that same approach right through your funnel and consequently make more sales as a result.
Once done, you can now put strategies together KNOWING you're hitting the right mark. I promise your sales and marketing strategies with be better, more focused and more profitable.
The Right Tools For The Job - Marketing Software
2 - Make sure you have the RIGHT marketing software in place to scale your business. This is a big one, and the KEY issue we wanted to solve for our FunnelCentrix members.
The truth is, we as marketers need to use software, but there is a problem. There are so many products on the market, many of them very good at what they do, that it can become confusing as to what software you need in order to market and automate your business successfully.
Software is used for two reasons.
The first is to do the heavy lifting for you, to automate processes that you would normally have to do manually. This is the marketing automation concept. It's what successful sales and marketing funnels are built with.
The second is to ensure that you can scale your business with ease. Marketing software enables you to deal with thousands of potential customers effortlessly. This is essential if you really want to build a lucrative business.
