Differentiation is becoming increasingly difficult as the quality and cost of the products are similar. Therefore, the key is in the business of branding, i.e. the power of the brand as a differentiator.

For Tom Peters declared "guru of gurus" by The Economist and Fortune, which is precisely the differentiation of the intangible part of a company's value, credibility and uniqueness of a brand. This is explained in new book which has just published under the title "The core of Branding."

Sales Assessment Systems

The sales analysis processes is a process by which we must collect, classify, compare and study the data of sales of the company, and sometimes you have to analyze not only the company but the market and with previous years or similar products to give you that magic number that you have arrived and will allow you to have some utility.

These sales analysis serve not only to have someone stuck doing all day statistics are also used to know in which customers, products, or territories are those that concentrate on higher sales of the company or where the plane must be changed strategy to enter that market, and can find the 80-20 with which you make your sales and know how you do grow to some customers and whether or not you continue to sell to others.

When you take out a sales analysis you need to decide:

1. The type of evaluation system.

2. The sources of information.

3. The rate of aggregation of information that will be used (all the extras, size, colors, and presentations).

Today we shall speak a little of the evaluation system, this determines how to make the analysis of sales if you are just where you only have a list of facts and not bought with no parameters or comparative comparison which will form the basis of comparison, last year's sales, sales this year, sales of different territories.

If you choose to make a comparative analysis of sales you should keep in mind that the work you invest in one of the vendors you have to do for everyone, and although there are systems that help you are wonderful and the more information you of each and more sellers have become more complicated by the amount of information to be analyzed and that maybe when you finish and missed much of the following month and can not perform corrective actions.

So do not go looking to excite and analyze data and end up losing more time.

Where do creative businesses begin online?

The power of online awareness and opportunity is no longer something to be brushed aside for “another day.” Most people are stifled by “the first step.”

May I suggest….the re-purposing of your marketing message?

You might know the natural (and universal) arc well, the exhilarated thrill of possibility as a new world of outreach is discovered then the almost inescapable and overwhelming cascade of anxiety as you dip your toe into the vast world of social media only to realize the dip causes nary a ripple.

Relax. Like Rome, this new world is all about progress and exploration and the building of relationships–it will not and should not be attempted in an afternoon of frenzied keyboarding.

Most panic, initially, when the thought enters their head that they have absolutely nothing to say, nothing to share. Not even knowing your product, I disagree completely.

Chances are all of the thoughts and examples you would ever need to participate already exist in another form such as in the language of websites, catalogs, brochures, internal documents, industry speeches, thought-leadership papers. To maximize the hard work already completed, consider a simple change of perspective.

Top 5 Ways to Re-Purpose Marketing Message:

  1. Isolate individual industry messages into one-page white papers authored by yourself or key members of the sales or workforce or your representatives. Chances are you have already surrounded yourselves by experts–mine them for “nuggets of knowledge” to share with the world. Remember, this information might be extremely mundane and basic to you but will be fresh and thought-provoking to someone else.
  2. Begin a blog to educate your public on your work, product line, specialties. For a simple (and free) way to get the conversation started.
  3. Plan individual blog posts to be released daily (or weekly) outlining the key points of what makes ABC Company’s widgets or artwork revolutionary. Educate your audience. Compare, contrast and illustrate. ESSENTIAL RULE: NEVER BASH A COMPETITOR–STAND FOR WHAT YOU ARE!
  4. Create or link to relevant and useful industry news or trends.
  5. Leave comments on relevant blogs which link to your supporting data (on your blog or website). If you’re not in the conversation, I assure you someone else will be.

This outline serves both the individual artist or creative as well as seasoned executives of a creative business. Give your voice and product a platform!

Organic Farmers, grow or disappear

Organic production is the livelihood of many families that have chosen to live in the countryside. Many of these small companies started in the late 80s and thirty years later, the marketing of their products remains unfulfilled.

The big companies have opted to export and with the help of governments and agencies and certification to promote their products.

Many factors impede the commercial development of small producers but the principal is the unwillingness of governments to support and promote the domestic market.

Small producers are challenged to grow or disappear.

So far they have survived by selling their produce to consumer cooperatives, directly to the public markets and fairs and in small stores and herbalists.

Today the sector is "more professional" and already there are big sellers at stores that provide organic products from other countries at more competitive prices.

This is the paradox that while in our country consume apples from China, other country travel to our apples. The environmental cost that is paid for this marketing makes it feasible and should not be encouraged.

Can we make it work in social media marketing?

It is very obvious to talk about marketing and social media, and above in the same sentence, makes more than one nerve. Because we are not able to integrate them or because we consider them impossible to integrate: The point is that concepts are that if you generate thousands of separate discussions, papers and books, which together generate the rise in Bayer's stock market, not Aspirin does more than sell.
I have said on occasion, we are in an environment in an era in which nothing can be known for certain or final. Changes occur continuously and it is now no longer be true tomorrow. So I always try to approach this space as a space for reflection, where what is said is not a basis to record in stone is now softer than ever.

If we talk about social media marketing can have one thing clear: not used to sell at least not directly. Manage the company's presence on the Web and social media can not focus as traditionally understood marketing. Now the sale is not an immediate goal, though obviously it an ultimate goal, however we must seek to build brand, reputation and community. That said there are a number of actions and strategies that are determining the failure of the marketing in social media.

A right approach to our Internet presence has convinced from the entire organization in the goodness of that presence. It is not enough to create and develop a series of actions by the marketing department if the rest of the organization is not involved and understands what is being done. It is usually deliver this type of strategy consultants or outside firms that not only create but also manage them. It is a mistake. No one better than the organization itself to understand its nature and philosophy, its own language. Its inception to deliver a message can change the external and blur the image you want to convey.
