Five Relationship Blunders to Avoid in Your Sales and Marketing

Valentine's Day is here, so it's the perfect time to use one of my favorite marketing analogies: Marketing is like dating.
Why? Because you have to attract leads by playing up your positives; you have to differentiate yourself from the competition; and you have to spend time building meaningful relationships—ultimately choosing one person for what you hope will be lifelong wedded bliss.
How business owners attract leads and differentiate themselves will differ from one company to the next. But in building relationships, there are a few common blunders that many entrepreneurs and marketers tend to make—no matter what industry they're in.

Download 100 GREAT MARKETING IDEAS by Jim Blythe


Marketing is, above everything else, about creating profitable exchanges. The exchanges should be profitable for both parties— fair trade always makes both parties better off, otherwise why would people trade at all? What we are aiming to do is offer products (which includes services, of course) that don’t come back, to customers who do come back. One of the basic concepts of marketing is customer centrality—in any question involving marketing, we always start with looking at what the customer needs. This does not, of course, mean that we are some kind of altruistic, charitable organization: we don’t GIVE the customer what he or she needs, we SELL the customer what he or she needs. Note that we define needs pretty broadly, too—if a woman needs chocolate, or a man needs a beer, we are there to ensure that they do not have to wait long. Most of the ideas in this book offer you ways of improving the exchange process, by encouraging more of it or by making the exchanges more profitable.

The Difference Between Creativity and Innovation


With the very accelerating and dynamic aspect of the competition, the main source of the competitiveness of the successes does not lies on the continuously re-applying the same processes. The need for more creative and innovative strategic planning and actions is now vastly exercised. To transform creative ideas into a very successful innovation requires very careful management and evaluation of the strategic planning and actions. Innovation means to create new product or process which is unique.

Marketing Management 13th edition by Philip Kotler, Kevin Lane Keller

Revision Strategy for the Thirteenth Edition
As marketing techniques and organization have changed, so has this text. The thirteenth edition is designed not only to preserve the strengths of previous editions, but also to introduce new material and organization to further enhance learning. We retained the key theme of holistic marketing, and the recognition that "everything matters" with marketing and that a broad, integrated perspective is often necessary. This theme is not developed so deeply, however, that it would restrict or inhibit an instructor's flexibility and teaching approach. To provide flexibility in the classroom, we also retained the new modular structure and eight parts corresponding to the eight key marketing management tasks. The thirteenth edition was changed to include the following:

Marketing Management 12th edition by Philip Kotler, Kevin Lane Keller


Marketing Management is the leading marketing text because its content and organization consistently reflect changes in marketing theory and practice. The very first edition of Marketing Management, published in 1967, introduced the concept that companies must be customer-and-market driven. But there was little mention of what have now become fundamental topics such as segmentation, targeting, and positioning. Concepts such as brand equity, customer value analysis, database marketing, e-commerce, value networks, hybrid channels, supply chain management, and integrated marketing communications were not even part of the marketing vocabulary then. Firms now sell goods and services through a variety of direct and indirect channels. Mass advertising is not nearly as effective as it was. Companies are exploring new forms of communication, such as experiential, entertainment, and viral marketing. Customers are increasingly telling companies what types of product or services they want and when, where, and how they want to buy them.
