Does Your Business Really Need An App For That?

/ Promotional Marketing News, random thoughts / By

I thought today was a great day to write a follow up piece to “The Rise of Generation C and a New Marketing Reality” .

This week has been all about meetings with our clients to talk about mobile marketing and how to market effectively to the 18-28 year demographic.   Interestingly enough, this week a two part blog post came out titled “Does Your Business Really Need An App For That?”  I think you will find them interesting, so here is PART I and PART II.

Without getting into the challenges of the individual campaigns, I can say that the conversations surrounding marketing tactics have been fascinating.    Clients all agree that there needs to be a social media component to their campaigns, this is a given.  However, very few had given and real thought to the power of mobile marketing, or truly understood the power of this tool to this generation.

The advent of smart phone technology, coupled with the NOW mentality of this generation makes mobile marketing a powerful ally if used correctly.     Just streaming your content designed for a 20″ monitor to a 3″ x 3″ platform does nothing to further your cause.

This generation, like many others who have adopted the mobile lifestyle, need content that is specifically designed to be used on this platform.   It needs to be easy to read, fast to download, easily provide links to mobile friendly content and must be interactive in some way or form.

We are employing a wide variety of techniques to further these campaigns, including text to win, guerilla marketing street teams, free product downloads, Quick Response (QR) Codes and on-going text messaging campaigns.

It is a brave new world, where online, offline and mobile marketing converge to build great brand champions.  I am excited to be part of it.

The SILVER option is designed for companies on a limited budget or who would like to try the power of the Communicate Your Why program before committing.

It provides you with a reasonable amount of shareable content and access to our network. However, for most companies, this may not provide a full year's worth of marketing materials. If you purchase a SILVER package and decide to upgrade within 30 days of the airing of your episode, we will credit 90% of the SILVER package towards either a GOLD or PLATINUM package.

Our expectation is that we will release your episode within 30 days of the recording date.

The GOLD option is a basic yearly marketing package.

Optimally, you would release an episode quarterly and use the content that accompanies it to update your marketing on a quarterly basis. It is literally four times the amount of marketing materials as the SILVER option and allows you to not only tell your story but create a case studies with clients or talk about specific ways you add value to your clientele in a non-sales way. We would suggest that you have us interview other employees, suppliers, strategic partners and/or clients with additional episodes in order to add additional value and tell a richer and a more robust version of your brand story.

Our expectation is that we will release your episodes quarterly.

The PLATINUM option is designed as a monthly marketing package

It gives you the content you desire to stay top of mind with your clients and prospects, talk about ongoing developments and tell a more robust story. Again, if you purchase a GOLD package and decide to upgrade to a PLATINUM one within 90 days of starting the original GOLD package, we will credit 90% of the original purchase price towards the price of the PLATINUM option. We would suggest that you have us interview other employees, suppliers, strategic partners and/or clients with additional episodes in order to add additional value and tell a richer and more robust version of your brand story.

Our expectation is that we will release your episodes monthly.
