Software Marketing – Knowing What You Don’t Know

There’s an old adage: “You don’t know what you don’t know.” That old chestnut rings true with any level of marketing in any company.

With the plethora of new technologies, products and services springing up globally, the software industry is particularly susceptible to falling prey to thinking that they do know what they don’t know. Sometimes it’s simply due to more focus on the technology than the customer. Sometimes the executives have no marketing background. However, let’s not bash the Founder/Owner/CEO too readily for not understanding how to translate the key mantra of any company’s marketing efforts: target the right audience at the right time, with the right message. Sounds simple, but it’s not easy.

Targeting the right audience is sometimes left to gut feel or assumptions. If you are a software marketer, you have a critical obligation to ensure that everyone in your company understands exactly who your target customer is. To do this you must talk to your existing customers or, at very least, gather tangible data from your customer database. Knowing the makeup of your existing customer base means more than just what size their company is or what industry they are in. You need to understand what makes the purchase decision-makers tick. Find the nuances of their profile. Document it and parlay that knowledge into a target marketplace.

Right-time marketing means understanding your product’s sales cycle from evaluation to a closed deal. When is your target customer starting to evaluate a solution like yours? When do they typically get budget and have to spend it by? Are there cyclical marketing elements, like end of year implementation? (In which case you should back into your buying cycle and consider certain months or quarters as pull- out- all- the- stops marketing time frames).

The right message to your target audience requires some serious evaluation of your prospects’ needs, the competitive environment and veracity on what your solution actually delivers. Now is the time to poll each of your executives and managers and ask them to give you a few bullet points on what they consider to be your USP (unique selling point). You may be surprised at the diverse and sometimes contradictory answers. Bottom line, it takes time to craft the right messages and you must always test, test, test.

Consider engaging outside services, whether an agency, market research firm, or consultant to give you an objective, impartial, and professional assessment of who your target customer really is, and how you should engage them for increased qualified leads and revenue.

A Guru In The Office $7.06 We attend life-enhancing seminars, listen to inspirational audio programs, and read dozens of “self-help” books by amazing people. No doubt when you leave these seminars or finish that latest book or audio program, you have a spring in your step, a smile on your face, and a brand new zest for life. Yet, unfortunately for many, the feeling doesn’t last. This is the point where you ask yourself, “How can I apply all I learned from that seminar/audio program/book to my world?” This book is about bridging the gap between business and spirituality. I’m just an ordinary woman, in an ordinary job, living in ordinary suburbia, so if I can do this, you can, too! It is possible to bring your spirituality to the office, so that you don’t have to be a Buddhist monk, a Yoga instructor, or a New Age storeowner to live within your center every day. All of this is meant to help you, and remind you that, in fact, you are your own “guru.” Dawn Staszak has been working in the office environment for over nineteen years including commercial and non-profit, large and small companies, both as a permanent and temporary employee.

Account-Based Marketing $36.99 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Account-based marketing (ABM), also known as key account marketing, is a strategic approach to business marketing in which an organisation considers and communicates with individual prospect or customer accounts as markets of one. The popularity of this approach is growing, with companies such as BearingPoint, HP, Progress Software and Xerox reported to be leading the way. Account-based marketing has grown since the mid-1990s as a demonstration of the trend away from mass marketing towards more targeted approaches. It parallels the movement in business-to-consumer marketing away from mass marketing where organisations try to sell individual products to as many new prospects as possible to 1:1 marketing where they concentrate on selling as many products as possible to one customer at a time. While business marketing is typically organised by industry, product/solution or channel (direct/social/PR), account-based marketing brings all of these together to focus on individual accounts.
