How Can I Improve Our Marketing
Marketing a Pulpwood Business
You have to be light on your feet to stay ahead of the curve these days, especially when you're promoting a pulpwood business. We have the information you need to create a nimble, yet effective marketing strategy for your business.
Marketing is a tricky business discipline, especially for inexperienced entrepreneurs who possess more enthusiasm than expertise.
Concerned about customer loyalty? Producing high quality products isn't enough to lure customers back to your business. Cash is king in today's marketplace, so your marketing plan needs to focus on value messages.
Newsletters
A good newsletter can set your company apart from your competitors and scale up your industry presence. Blatant marketing messages aren't appropriate in newsletters because they don't communicate informational value to your customers. Instead, your newsletter should contain industry news, product use tips, and other content that captures your customers' attention. It's not unusual for pulpwood businesses to distribute newsletters through online channels (e.g. in email campaigns and as PDFs on the company website).
Technological Expertise
The PR and marketing community has embraced technology with open arms, transforming basic marketing concepts into sophisticated, tech-driven systems and solutions. As a result, a primary concern of growth-oriented pulpwood businesses tends to be a search for news to leverage technology to scale up the organization's promotional firepower. If possible, business owners should gravitate toward technologies that deliver greater ROI than traditional marketing channels.
Measurement & Evaluation
Performance is the ultimate measure of quality. You can improve the quality of your B2B and B2C efforts by considering professional mailing lists provided by established vendors. That's just one of the ways pulpwood businesses may be able to increase the impact of their marketing tactics. However, there are no substitutes for measurement and evaluation mechanisms. A robust measurement and evaluation process should include metrics that can be monitored on a monthly, weekly or even daily basis. Designed to monitor marketing efforts on a campaign-by-campaign basis, these metrics can be used as a baseline for strategic planning. Technology plays a role in marketing measurements, so pulpwood businesses often choose to consult with professional marketers for assessment tools and strategic insights.
