“A Business Coach’s Top Ten Tactics for Marketing Professional Services”
Marketing professional services is a real and difficult challenge. The challenges of marketing professional services are different from those of marketing products. Two major reasons for the differences are that clients cannot see or touch professional services before they buy them and the professional services are often produced and consumed simultaneously. And another reason is that marketing professional services is split among marketing, sales, professional and management staff instead of a dedicated marketing and sales force. Based upon my research and my own professional experience, I developed a Top Ten Tactics for marketing professional services. My top ten tactics for marketing professional services are:

Want to Boost Technology Sales? Incent Your Support Staff
Clues for sales are everywhere, and many times they fall in the lap of someone who is not part of your company's sales team. While most of these leads are passed along to a sales professional, it's not a bad idea to provide incentives to the support team to continue to look for clues.

Oil, Water, and Teamwork
Did you ever wonder why a professional sports team that seems to have so many outstanding players, never wins the championship? Often times they don’t even make it to the playoffs. Perhaps you live in a city plagued by this team. Frustrating isn’t it? The same malfunction occurs in many businesses today. You have an all star team, but you are getting a sub par performance. Does top management do more refereeing than managing?

What Do Quarterbacks and Business Owners Have In Common?
It's that time of year when there is a lot of football on TV. Everything from college bowl games to professional playoffs. No matter which games you watch, it quickly becomes evident which team's quarterback (i.e. "QB") is better than the other, and usually that is the team that wins the game. How are you doing as the QB of your team (i.e. your company)? How do you measure up against all those other QBs (i.e. business owners)?
Playing to Win
Anything can happen - and it often does! One of the old clichés in professional athletics is that on any given day in any given city, one professional athletic team can beat another team. Their standings in the won-loss record at that moment don’t really matter. That’s equally true in individual competition when you have players who are skilled and determined to do their best.
Effective Team Coaching
People in every workplace talk about building the team, working as a team, but few understand team work or how to develop an effective team. Belonging to a team, in the broadest sense, is a result of feeling part of something larger than yourself; understanding the mission or objectives of your organisation.
Client Feedback
When was the last time you asked a client for feedback about your professional services and how your office staff works as a team? You might turn up some useful information by doing a client feedback session when the work is complete. I recently had an experience with a hospital that is an example of how frustrating a poorly working team can be. As a practice advisor for attorneys I am always looking for examples, good and bad, about how to run a professional services practice.
