Promotion

How do we get the word out? Promotion is the action stage. It’s the details, the where, when, and why of your marketing efforts. From advertising to trade show strategy, internet to print collateral, press kits to investor relations, how and where you promote is all execution.

Promotion, in the big picture is all the steps we take and campaigns we deliver to connect with potential customers. By taking into account each Big Picture item, promotion can be well planned, rather than a knee-jerk reaction.

Every business is unique and promotion must be tailored to your market, your audience, to be most effective. At Longbow we are very target-conscious. With data from research we can determine the most important question of promotion; Where do we spend advertising dollars? Trade publication, radio, billboard, internet advertising, tradeshow? The possibilities are without end, but answer this: Where are your future customers? Where do they go and how do they make decisions regarding your products and services? Knowing your audience is the single most important factor in promotion.

Measuring each campaign’s effectiveness is a key step that many organizations ignore. We think promotion is a science–not an act of faith. If you aren’t tracking response, then you are wasting money. Period.

We love this stuff. Tap into Longbow and get your marketing machine in order. By tracking response we can begin by refining where you run ads, where you should exhibit and where you should scale back. As we establish a history of response, you’ll be amazed by the doors it opens.
