Developing a marketing strategy for your business can be a challenge -- you need to know where to start and what to focus on.

Answer These 4 Marketing Questions

Many advertisers find themselves getting stuck when it comes to developing a successful marketing strategy. I agree that in order to attain your goals you need to first understand where to begin.

Jantsch provides four ways your business can discover the best plan.

Here's what caught my attention:

• Find out what your personal "why" is. As yourself how you are going to change the world and which things you want to make right. This helps you to see which gaps you are filling.

• To develop a brand story you need to understand your audience, personality, who the hero is, and what your journey will be.

• Make deliverables and expectations clear to your audience so they know what to look forward to. Remove any ambiguity in order to foster an enjoyable working relationship.

As a business recognition is like gold when it comes to building an audience. I agree that publishing a news announcement can enhance your brand promotion efforts.

Gilbert goes over how to successfully write and publish a press release that gets noticed.

Here's what caught my attention:

• Before writing decide what the focus or subject matter will be. This could be a product announcement, event, contest, ect.

• Craft a headline that is eye-catching and newsworthy. Come up with several different ideas to choose from before making a final selection.

• The introduction is the most important part of your press release. It should explain who, what when, where, and why along with a summary of what the article is about.
