What is the most important question to ask when building a new marketing campaign?
Hint - it's not "what am I selling?" or "features and benefits." Yes, these are critical questions that need answering. But as a marketer, the most important question to ask is, "who are my customers and how aware are they of the problems I'm trying to fix?" Only then can you create messaging that will most likely generate the greatest results.
