When we work with our clients and dive deep into their social accounts - the first thing I love to talk about first is social media goals. I think a lot of businesses jump onto social media - but then they have no clue why they are there except for the reason that someone told them they should be! So they post and don’t see any traction, get frustrated and then just stop. Social media can be very effective when you have the right goals in place! Listen to our episode to determine what your goals should be for:
-Listening
-Influencing
-Selling

Today we’re talking about brand assets – and how to align all the assets your business has! This is a particularly important step for growing businesses to take, and also one of the most satisfying. Far too many businesses think that their marketing is just hit or miss, or that that they need to keep coming up with new ideas. Auditing your brand assets is all about gathering all your content and seeing just what it can become!
For companies that already have a marketing system in place, auditing plays another very important role: It helps businesses take a look at all their different content and make sure it’s all consistent – matching tone, product info, promises made, even colors and visuals. This keeps all marketing content on the same page, and shows exactly where the brand is at. It’s especially vital for companies that may have changed content strategies or logos a few times in the past but haven’t really thought about it.

Your brand is more than your logo! It absolutely is your logo, the colors you use, and your tagline, but it’s also a lot more than that. Essentially, your brand is everything that people know about you when you open communication with them. In our podcast, we’re walking through a little brand workshop using 21 Handshake as an example, so you can really get an idea of what that means. We will go over these exercises: ✔️Describe your brand in one sentence! ✔️How do you think your brand makes people feel? ✔️What value does your brand promise people? ✔️What peers does your brand have? ✔️Ultimately, what are you proud of?

This episode dives into step 1 of our digital marketing blueprint and talks about lean market research. Lean market research uses primary data to determine what problems your product/service could solve for people. During lean market research, you talk with customers directly to gain valuable feedback, a higher value is placed on quality conversations vs. cursory surveys, there is a continuously collecting of insights and intelligence, as opposed to conducting infrequent, “big bang” research studies and at its core the market research becomes the “voice of the customer” and uses insights to transform the business, as opposed to conducting research in a vacuum.
