Every Step Matters On Your Marketing Journey
Sometimes, it’s fun to just get in the car and drive. But that’s now how most journeys work. Most of the time, you need to map out a process to make your journey successful. That might include choosing your destination, making sure there’s gas in the tank, deciding who you want to see along the way, estimating costs and travel time, and defining what will make the trip worthwhile. The same can be said when mapping out your marketing strategy. Your marketing process should strategically chart the course to your final destination: loyal customers, a steady stream of qualified leads, and brand recognition.
Why Does Strategic Marketing Matter?
Strategic marketing is a full-circle process that involves target market and competitor research, establishing marketing objectives, and maximizing the effectiveness of your overall marketing strategy. It’s an ongoing process that yields successful results when done thoughtfully and consistently. The strategic marketing process is beneficial because it helps you be more intentional with your marketing—you decide where you want to go, and your strategy will help you determine how you need to get there.
Today’s Marketing Process is Tomorrow’s Long-Term Success
You may have heard the saying, “Success needs a process.” Example: While the McDonald’s brand is synonymous with fast food worldwide today, there was a time when only the residents of San Bernardino, California, knew about the restaurant. As Ray Kroc said, “I was an overnight success alright, but 30 years is a long, long night.”
Few things become successful without planning, strategic thought, and consistent effort. Marketing will not work overnight. The process you implement today will yield tomorrow’s marketing success. And remember that even McDonald’s frequently recalibrates its marketing strategies to respond to consumer trends and demands. It’s all about the process.
Your Target Audience is Out There
Casting a wide net with SEO, advertising, and social media can seem like a great idea. But it’s a bit like spinning around with your eyes closed, throwing a dart, and hoping you’ll hit the right target. On the other hand, a strategic marketing process ensures that you find the most qualified leads, speak directly to their needs, and convert them into loyal customers. Your target audience is out there waiting to hear from you.
