In Direct Marketing, Aim for the Response
Summary
In direct marketing, many businesses fall into the trap of expecting too much from their messages. The goal should be to prompt prospects to take a simple, defined action.Article
Crafting an effective marketing message involves a clear, three-step process: defining your audience, setting a clear goal, and developing your message.
1. Define Your Audience
Identify who you are marketing to and who you want to motivate. While attracting more clients is the aim, you need to go beyond the basics. Compile detailed notes about your existing clients and use these insights for each marketing campaign.Visualize your typical prospect: What are their needs, concerns, and desires? Once you have this clear picture, you can proceed to the next step.
2. Define Your Goal
Clarify and simplify your goal. A clear goal is more achievable. Simplifying doesn’t mean making it trivial; it means focusing on the core objective. Strip away anything non-essential until you have one specific action you want the prospect to take.3. Craft Your Message
Based on your audience and goal, create a message that bridges the gap and drives the desired action. A straightforward process sets the foundation for success.Consider a practical example: as a realtor specializing in home buyers, your audience includes home shoppers. After researching their demographics and preferences, you should define a precise goal. Instead of aiming directly for client acquisition, focus on prompting an initial contact, like a phone call or email.
A well-defined message should:
- Achieve a realistic goal: Initiating contact is feasible.
- Support long-term objectives: It aligns with your client acquisition strategy.
Research shows that 74% of people choose the first real estate professional they contact. Therefore, earning that first call significantly boosts your chances of gaining a client.
The Power of Simplicity
You're not selling a simple product, like a coffee maker; you're offering a service that impacts your clients' financial and personal well-being. While words can sell a product, they may not fully convey your ability to deliver. They can, however, encourage prospects to take the next step, such as reaching out to you. After that initial contact, there will be ample opportunity to demonstrate your capabilities.Let your marketing message focus on achievable expectations. Allow it to guide the reader forward in your overarching strategy, one step at a time.
