Printing Matters – PrintingForLess Newsletter – JULY 2011
It’s time to start thinking about marketing in a whole new way.
Long gone are the days when all a company had to do was tout their products and services to gain new customers and garner sales. These days, if you really want to grow your business, it’s all about having your clients do your marketing for you. Think about it. Which is more believable – you telling people how great you are or your clients singing your praises? Customers crave authenticity and credibility when evaluating a company. They are looking for a solution to a problem and will seek recommendations from like-minded peers.
Want to incorporate customer testimonials into your marketing? Start small by asking a few loyal customers if they would mind sharing their experience with your company. Then slowly build up to developing customer profiles and detailed case studies to share with prospective clients.
