Step One: B.E.Y.O.N.D. – Balance, Energy, Yield, Opportunities, Negatives & Differentiation.
OBJECTIVE:
–>To identify energy the strengths and opportunities to highlight in your marketing efforts.
–>To identify weakness and threats and turn them into opportunities.
Whenever you are stuck in your marketing, a B.E.Y.O.N.D evaluation will bring you back on track.
Recommended to complete no less than every three months. A B.E.Y.O.N.D. evalution can help a small business owner identify a shift in marketplace; such as economic changes, competition, company process, and often allows you to stay a leader in your field by adapting quickly to these changes.
Step Two: Evaluate Existing Marketing
OBJECTIVE:
–>To evaluate your marketing foundation of your company.
–>Identify areas for improvement.
–>Set priorities for immediate actions & future goals to establish a stronger marketing foundation.
This marketing model has been a proven marketing model in small business for many years by Marketing Coach Angela Brooks-Osborne. In this step you will rate your company based on each area of this model. It will identify areas you need to work on in your marketing plan. The higher rating in each section of the model, the more profit you will make in your business.
Step Three: Establish Products & Services
OBJECTIVE:
–>To establish core services/products with descriptions & pricing
–> To assign importance based on enjoyment & profit return.
–> Evaluate existing products & services.
We revisit our products and service offerings because often we fall into adding them into our services based on client need and spontaneous opportunity. It is crucial to revisit often. To ensure we enjoy the work, we make money and that our core offerings fit our overall goals.
Step Four: Projections: Forecasting Your Potential Earnings in next 6-12 months.
OBJECTIVE:
–>Establish a financial goal for the year.
–> Determine viability based on core offerings unit price.
–> Look at the year in a glance, setting weekly and monthly goals.
Step Five: Identify Potential Clients
OBJECTIVE:
–> To identify your target market + their reasons for buying.
–> To establish a strategy on where the best places are to plant crops and what the call for action will be.
When you identify your ideal client; who could possibly benefit from your offerings, you can position yourself and your services properly. If you evaluate what motivates them to buy, when & where, what their challenges are, how you can best solve these challenges, then you can position yourself to be there, be an expert and be referred, easily attracting more clients.
Step Six: Positioning Yourself In Your Marketplace
OBJECTIVE:
–> Identify where in the market place you want to be.
–> Know what is important to reach that position.
This is a key step in creating your marketing plan. One that is often over looked. This step will determine many aspects of your business. For example…How much money you put into marketing, how much money you make for how many hours you invest, what type of clients you will attract and whether you will still love your business 3 years from now!
Step Seven: Planting Crops
OBJECTIVE:
–> To select 4-8 ways you will attract clients
–> Create call for actions to feed into nurturing programs
When you choose where you are going to plant your crops, know, to be effective you need to know the area inside out. For example, if you choose FB, you need to know how to set up groups, Fb ads, run FB campaigns, understand how to get engagement. ONLY choose places you know you will give it your all to learn to market effectively in.
Step Eight: Nurturing & Harvesting Clients
OBJECTIVE:
–> Create a step by step process to nurture clients.
–> Establish or plan all materials needed to begin your marketing process immediately.
Create strong relationships with existing clients = loyal repeat clients who refer you! Build trust faster and avoid long sales processes. Less likely potential clients will shop around!
A strong marketing model foundation includes a great nurturing and harvesting program. The rule of thumb is 8-10 times before you know if the client is “just not that into you” …right now!
Step Nine: Marketing Plans V.S Marketing Campaigns
OBJECTIVE:
–> To understand the difference between a marketing plan and a marketing campaign.
–> Learn how to plan and execute a marketing campaign.
Step Ten: Plot Your Marketing Plan
OBJECTIVE:
–> To create a 2 page action plan per month.
