All-in-One Tier - Your Marketing Department

<<< BackTourNext >>>

Marketing is one of the fundamental components of business.  Unfortunately, marketing is often confused with sales or advertising.  Marketing is different.  Your marketing engine drives your advertising campaigns and your sales force.  Without a focused marketing effort, advertising becomes shooting blindly into the dark, and your sales force becomes a group of wandering nomads in search of water.

Our All-in-One Service is exclusively available to service firms.  We define service firms as companies whose primary product is time or expertise. 

These firms are unique when compared to manufacturing companies.  Manufacturers create a product, develop distribution channels, develop a marketing plan, advertise, and hopefully sell their product.  If the target audience buys, they are profitable, if the audience doesn't, they aren't.

Service firms sell time, information, ideas, and insights.  These intangible products are dynamic, therefore the techniques used to market these products must also be ever changing.

This belief in dynamic marketing has motivated us to create our All-in-One Service, a virtual marketing department for your service firm.

The core component of the All-in-One Service is our Web-Centric Marketing Plan highlighted in our basic package.  If you are not familiar with our Planning Service, we encourage you to jump backward. Understanding the concept of Web-Centric Marketing is important.

In addition to the marketing plan and website creation of our basic service, the All-in-One Service adds the benefit of ongoing implementation and in-depth insight.  Below are the additional services offered in this service level.

  • Service Product Development and Packaging

  • Information Product Development and Packaging

  • Direct Mail Marketing Planning and Implementation

  • Ad Agency or PR Firm Integration Planning

  • Business Class Web Hosting Pack

The All-in-One plan establishes a monthly marketing schedule and budget as part of your Web-Centric Marketing Plan.  We help you every month develop marketing materials that are highly effective, very timely and on budget.

We can learn a lot about service product packaging from our local hair stylist or barber.

A typical stylist can perform a haircut in 20 minutes, 3 per hour, and charge $12.  (Total hourly rate, $36)

An exceptional stylist can cut your hair in less than 15 minutes on average, 4 per hour.  And because of their scale, they can charge $15 per cut.  This stylist earns $60 per hour.

If stylists offered their service on an hourly basis, not only would they earn less, they'd have to compete on price with the lesser skilled competition.

Service Product Development and Packaging

Service products are time-based products.  The classic example is an attorney.  While an attorney does sell expertise, ultimately the product is billable hours.  An attorney's maximum capacity is limited to the number of hours he or she can work.

Service products are far too often focused on dollars per hour.  This method of pricing is destructive, particularly for those who are experts at their jobs.

We help you develop a "look and feel" to your service products by examining several characteristics.

  • What outcomes is your potential customer seeking?

  • What is your maximum capacity for delivering service?

  • What are your revenue targets?

  • What price points will this market bear?

  • Will it be necessary to create a new market, or simply tap into an existing market?

After answering these questions, and establishing an appropriate price point, we will create a packaging plan, which includes techniques to educate your market about your service.

Information Product Development and Packaging

Information can be packaged more easily than service, but not as easily as traditional manufactured products.  We will help you determine the best delivery system for your information.  These may include:

  • Books

  • Audio CDs

  • DVDs

  • CD or DVD ROMs

  • Live Seminars

  • Telephone Seminars

  • Web Seminars

  • Electronic Books and Documents

  • White Papers

We guide you step-by-step through the process of developing information products from your existing body of knowledge.  Furthermore, we will set up processes for marketing these products, and in some cases, order fulfillment.

Direct Mail Marketing Planning and Implementation

For most service firms, direct mail marketing is a tremendously effective method of communication. We frequently recommend contacting your target market between four and twelve times annually.  As part of your All-in-One Service, we will work with your design firm or printer to create direct marketing pieces that seamlessly connect to your website. 

We will help you acquire quality mailing lists, create attractive and effective color printed pieces, and develop web pages specifically to answer the customers' call-to-action.

Ad Agency or PR Firm Integration Planning

Direct mail and web marketing are all that's needed for some firms, but others need a dynamic mix of media to deliver their message.  Whether you want to pursue traditional advertising or advanced public relations techniques, we will work with your ad agency or PR firm to create messages that work.

Additionally, we will make sure that your advertising and public relations directs potential customers to your website, then we make certain your website exceeds your customer's expectations for sales and service.

Business Class Web Hosting Pack

When your website is updated frequently, it gives you much more flexibility.  Our All-in-One package includes robust business class web hosting with all the selling tools you'll need.
