Hi I’m John Watson with Accrue Marketing [3].
The first leg of your business development journey is The Design Stage.
The Design Stage focuses on three things: defining your business, committing to it and mapping your marketing fundamentals.
Defining Your Business is where you:
- clarify what you do,
- define whom you serve,
- identify the problems you solve,
- determine how you’ll make money, and
- why anyone would choose you over your competitors.
The second area of focus is Cultivating Commitment.
It’s where we work to address your reasons for not committing to your business.
We use planning and forecasting models, to remove your obstacles to commitment.
The third area of focus is Mapping The Fundamentals of your Marketing Program. It’s a foundation laying exercise.
Your marketing foundation includes things like:
- Your brand and identity,
- Defining target clients,
- Developing your story,
- Defining lead offers, and
- Crafting sales messaging
Once you’re clear, committed and have your foundation ready, it’s time to shift to the Build Stage. The Build Stage [4] is where you set up your sales and marketing infrastructure. We like to call it your relationship assembly line.
