At the heart of good marketing is creating passionate connections. In any communication you are not communicating with an inanimate object. There is a real live human being on the other end– whether writing a letter, making a sale, developing a contract – whatever – it is all about people and your relationship with them. So the behaviours, skills and tools that you use in business are no different from those that you would use in any relationship in your life. But often when it comes to marketing we forget about this. We may see our customers as obstacles that need to be overcome in order to make a sale rather than people that we seek to make connections with.
So where does all good marketing start. With your customer, stakeholder, beneficiary. You have to live in their world. Put yourself in their shoes. See what they are seeing, do what they are doing. Feel their pain, passion, motivations, drives etc
You cant research – you discover it. It happens by being around your customers and interacting with them. Example of insight. Apple – people like to interact and touch. Coke moment of happiness. How to do it. K – people in nappies. Being on phone. Listening in to conversations.
Over to you. Pick on someone in the audience. Choose one of their stakeholders. Get the group to brainstorm ideas on sources of getting info about customer.
Once you have lived in your customers shoes – you need to think about what you actually deliver to them. What problem you solve. What you do best.
