Key Talking Points- Mass merchandising vs. target marketing- why this is important for shop owners
- Make marketing unique- not your average paper ads
- Being active in the community in a memorable way. Reinforce your brand.
- You can’t be everything to everyone
- FORD- family, occupation, recreations, dreams
- Building relationships with the customers that see the value in your business
- Psychographics- what are your customers involved with? Read? Listen to? Values? Lifestyle? What’s in their backseat? Their network is also your target audience
- Culture- connecting with customers and building relationships. The quality of the interactions
- Who are the 20% of your active customers?
- “What’s important to me and the customer?” it’s not always about the money
- The ease of the transaction- your ideal customer that has been with your shop 20 20 years but isn't the demographic of your ideal customer is still your ideal customer. Don’t box yourself in.
