RAMP UP YOUR BRAND - SLEDGEHAMMERS AND SERVICE BRAND PREFERENCE
| |
| By Mike Schultz and John Doerr
Swing the Hammer
Imagine the strongman game at the carnival. You lift the sledgehammer over your head and swing it down onto the platform. When it strikes the target, a metal cylinder rises up and up—20 feet up the pole until it rings the bell. On its way down the pole the cylinder passes the same words it passed on the way up: strongman, tough guy, athlete, junior, and weakling.
In a way, establishing a services brand follows a similar process. You swing the hammer (your marketing tactics, the marketing mix you employ, and the quality of your company's services) and the strength of your efforts determine whether or not your brand moves up the pole and makes it to the top to ring the bell.
The question is, “What stages must your brand pass through in order to ring the bell?”

Tenacity is NOT Enough!
| |
| No one has to tell you that high performers succeed more. But, is this a fluke? Are they special people? They obviously are different in some way because not everyone is able to perform at their level. Clearly they don't blend in with the masses on the bell curve. But interestingly enough however, they don't always stand out either. Take an interview for example. Many poor performers are hired by mistake, and who knows how many top performers get turned down. It would be much easier to identify the best if they all had a certain look, or always had the best skills - but they don't. |

Sometimes Unintended Consequences Are A Good Thing
| |
| We’re all familiar with the “Law of Unintended Consequences.” My personal favorite is still the plastic whistles that were packaged with Cap’n Crunch cereal back in the ’70s. Blowing the whistle into your phone triggered a connection to AT&T’s long distance dialing AND by-passed their billing system. Free calls! Not exactly what Quaker Oats had in mind. (…and Ma Bell was not pleased.) |

What Sales Leaders Don't Know about Ego and Empathy
| |
| Empathy and Ego are both a lot like food - you can't have too much of it or it will make you sick. And if you don't have enough of it you'll be weak. They are really best plotted on bell curves, not bar graphs! |

Evaluate your Customer Needs
| |
| How do you increase speed in your marketing? It actually is very easy. You must target your market. Most professionals lose jobs because they do not make their offers crystal clear to their prospect. The prospects must understand completely, without a doubt what benefits they will receive and what the outcomes will be from working with you or using your product. You must be crystal clear in your definition. However, are you crystal clear in what you will be offering? |
