Publisher's
Note: |
Did You Know?
The MarketingProfs newsletter has grown from 400 to over 36,400 subscribers
since we started publishing in January 2001. This was accomplished with virtually
no advertising and with a lot of competitors who are better funded
and more experienced in the publishing business.
Why am I telling
you this? It's a lesson in the basics of sound marketing...namely find
a need and fill it, position yourself uniquely (in our case, without hype
and self-promotion), keep your message consistent, and oh yeah, have faith
that your customers will appreciate your hard work. Thanks to the writers,
advertisers and, of course, our readers for that.

The
Meaning of Success
A major
packaged foods company was recently mulling over whether customer relationship
marketing made sense for them. While their flagship brand had long enjoyed a huge
category lead, the syndicated trend data was showing a worrisome slippage in market
share, suggesting consumers were beginning to stray.
The market research
department saw a different story. The research staff put more trust in their own
custom data, which painted a cheerier picture: that, in fact, the brand's share
of requirements had actually risen slightly over the previous year. So who was
right?
Can you guess?

The Uncommon Market: Thinking About a PR Campaign to Target Europe?
There's good news
and bad news when you look at developing a business-to-business public relations
strategy for Europe. The good news might seem to be the coming together of (so
far) 15 countries into a single Common Market. The bad news is that in practical,
everyday terms the EU is anything but a single market, and its existence is hardly
of any benefit when it comes to planning PR activities across Europe.

the pond?

Build
Your Personal Brand and Expand Your Success
Since pre-industrial
times, branding has been used to develop strong, enduring relationships with customers.
Customers of Mr
Jone's pie shop knew that his pies came with more real fruit and were always given
to you with a smile. It made it worth the long walk and extra 2 cents. Today,
albeit on a larger, more global scale, branding continues to provide those same
benefits. Volvo is differentiated from other car companies by it's promise of
safety and security.
But branding is
not just for companies or products any more.
You mean I
can brand myself? Why should I? Read
