Wrapping Paper Promises -
Marketing is part art, part science.  The science part is in the discovery of who your clients are and in choosing the best way to reach them. The art part is the creative used to communicate your message . . . the wrapping paper, as it were.

It's a wonderful thing when the art and the science of marketing are bang on and you are, all of a sudden, attracting people to your business.  BUT, what happens if they walk in the door, visit your website or call for a meeting and for some reason they decide not to buy, or they buy once but never return again?  

Something is not right. The marketing is working to get people in, but when it comes to fulfillment there is a disconnect. What could be wrong? It could be any number of things, the environment, the actual product or service, the value received, the people, or the failure to deliver on your promise. 

Us marketing folk can wrap your business in beautiful paper and pretty bows, but once they're in the door it's all up to you.  If you're slow to acknowledge, slow  to deliver, provide subpar quality, bad service or have a poorly kept environment, the client may, or MAY NOT be back for more.  

This is not to say every business should have glittery wrapping with shiny bows. If you sell high volume, low cost, glittery wrapping doesn't work. What it does mean is that what's on the outside needs to match what's on the inside. If you set high expectations with amazing wrapping paper and sky high promises and then fail to deliver on those expectations the customer will not be back.

Do you live up to the promises of your wrapping paper?

The Big Series! -
Nope, this isn't a baseball story, but another marketing story. Bet that's a shocker. 

Depending on what you're trying to accomplish with your marketing, sometimes a series can work.

Below is a series of cards we created recently for A Votre Sante.  They offer a variety of services, some of which are targeted to totally different audiences. The postcard series we created is disseminated via mail, through affiliates, at shows and as inserts.
A Votre Sante

The second, Big Series example, was developed for a client who offers online WHMIS training to a variety of different industries. We learned who the major industries were and created a card series to target those major industries.

Online WHMIS

It makes sense that you will get the attention of your potential customer if the imagery and message are applicable to their own personal and / or professional circumstance.

Do you have more than one market segment you target? The "Big Series" may work for you.  Give us a call to find out more.
