Sales Strategies for Entrepreneurs: The #1 Way to Boost Your Sales This Year
Summary:
Many businesses, both small and large, invest heavily in marketing. Discover a strategy that allows you to enhance your marketing impact, double your sales within a year, and reduce marketing expenses. This method is straightforward yet powerful.Key Concept: The Best Buyer Strategy
To double your sales over the next twelve months, embrace the power of the "Best Buyer" concept. This principle highlights that among all potential buyers, a smaller group of ideal buyers exists. Targeting them is more cost-effective and yields greater rewards.
Case Study: A Magazine's Success
A magazine implemented this strategy and doubled its sales in just 15 months. Initially, they had a database of 2,200 advertisers and sent promotional materials consistently. Upon analysis, they discovered that just 167 advertisers were responsible for 95% of the advertising in their competitor's magazine.
This concept, known as "The Dream 100 Sell," involves aggressively pursuing your top prospects. The magazine reached out to the 167 ideal buyers with bi-weekly letters and made four monthly calls. Despite an intensive four-month campaign, the first success came in the fifth month with just one purchase. By the sixth month, 28 major advertisers came on board, opting for full-page ads and color spreads, effectively doubling the magazine’s sales. It leapt from 15th place in the industry to first within a year.
Lesson: Target Your Best Buyers
Identifying your best buyers is crucial. For business-to-consumer markets, focus on affluent neighborhoods. Professions like dentistry, accounting, and real estate should consistently engage these communities. In a business-to-business context, the largest companies often represent the best buyers. Plan regular outreach efforts to ensure these companies recognize you, even after initial resistance.
Persistence pays off. With consistent marketing to prime prospects, even the toughest executives will start to respect your persistence, often leading to a sense of obligation. The magazine previously mentioned continued to see success, doubling sales year after year through focused efforts on ideal buyers.
Another Example: Manufacturer Success
A company targeting the 100 largest manufacturers in the country experienced initial silence. However, after three months of persistent outreach, executives started reacting positively: "I just have to meet you. I've never had anyone follow up so persistently." Within six months, they secured meetings with 54% of their targets.
Key Takeaway: Never Give Up
Consistently pursue your top buyers. If you're selling to consumers, be relentless in sending monthly promotional materials to wealthy neighborhoods. Over time, your brand will become well-known among affluent buyers.
Final Question:
Identify your dream prospects: Who are they, and how committed are you to securing them as clients?
