What is strategic marketing positioning?
Before understanding how to find the right space for your company, we need to understand the advantages and purposes of a good marketing strategy. After all, this can guide the results that your company can obtain.
At first, we already know that a marketing strategy is the best way to reach more customers for your company. This is because, through efficient applications of techniques available on the market, you reach an even larger audience.
For this reason alone, we already know that your company must think of new ways to sell. But there are even more reasons to start changing your company's strategic marketing positioning.
Brand recognition and the way your customers reach you are also differentiators that can be provided by an efficient marketing methodology.
As a result, companies have a greater chance of attracting visitors, converting leads and, most importantly, completing sales. In this way, further increasing the potential of the business.
How to define a strategic marketing positioning for your company?
Now that you know how important an efficient marketing strategy is, how about learning how to apply successful methodologies for your company? Here we go!
There are a few steps before reaping the rewards of an efficient methodology. And they are fundamental to establishing your company competitively in the market. Among these steps, we can mention:
Define an ICP
Understanding your customer is fundamental to understanding the best communication strategy for your company. Therefore, start by studying the market in which you operate and combine the information collected with your business objectives.
From this, you can identify how companies, with the potential to become your customers, behave. Thus, increasing the chances of closing advantageous deals for the results of your enterprise.
To do this, you need to understand the type of business your company seeks as a client. Therefore, create a profile for this company (size, priorities when purchasing, region in which it focuses and other information that you deem relevant).
This is a fundamental step for us to move on to the next steps.
Create a persona
Now that you better understand the company that will receive your content and communications, you need to understand who, within your ICP, these products will be destined for.
It is important to highlight that, contrary to what we saw in the previous topic, at this stage we assign a name, an age and a story to the semi-fictitious client. This is because this information can mix concrete data, perceptions and behavioral analysis.
This way, we know exactly how the people responsible for purchasing your product/solution interact. In other words, we identify the most used language, expressions and formats, thus being able to communicate efficiently.
Understand your audience
With all this defined, you have a very well-established overview of the market and your customers. However, understanding your audience is something that goes beyond this first analysis, and the study must be constant.
Before we continue, we need to understand that your company's strategic marketing positioning depends on the visibility it has, and how your audience sees it. In other words, you need to be aware of market trends, news on social media and everything that could impact this relationship between company and customer.
Communicate and interact
Ok!… Now that you have defined and delved deeper into the nuances of your audience, we need to establish communication. Therefore, work on social media campaigns, email flows and other tools to interact with your audience.
Keep them fed with information about your company, your solution and the market in general, transforming your marketing strategy into a point of reference when it comes to your area of expertise. We can say, with certainty, that the results are surprising.
However, we know that a company's strategic marketing positioning takes a lot of time. Therefore, invest in automation tools for sending emails and posting on social networks. This way, you avoid having to think about it all the time.
Another efficient solution, adopted by many companies, is hiring a marketing agency. This because, outsource some needs and obligations free up more time for your team and you to dedicate yourself to new steps in a campaign or applying new communication methodologies.
Create a community and retain your customers
Lastly, but just as important, work with the community. This is the best way to retain your customer. Establish a safe environment for your customers to exchange experiences and communicate easily with your company.
With this, you create a culture of promoting the advantages of your solution among the contacts of those who experience not only the benefits of the product/service, but also the experience of having an efficient team.
Now, you need to act. Take the tips from this article and get to work!
