How to Improve Business Marketing
Marketing a Truck Trailer Dealership
Marketing plays a central role in any company. But when it comes to a truck trailer dealership, your ability to market your brand can be the deciding factor between barely making it and achieving stellar industry success.
Think tired marketing collateral is all you need to succeed in today's marketplace? Think again!
Great marketing campaigns elevate the status of your truck trailer dealership using a carefully crafted mix of techniques and tactics.
Bundling
Messaging matters - but only to the degree that it communicates value to cost-conscious consumers. Bundling is a tried and true method for marketing value concepts. Instead of presenting buyers with a single product offering, you can combine multiple product offerings into a package deal. Most truck trailer dealerships can leverage bundling to improve sales and attract new customers to the brand. Since the bundling concept is based on discounts, consumers expect to pay less for the bundle than they would if they were to buy the products separately, so you'll need to make sure your bundle offers real value to buyers.
Do We Really Need A Logo?
The question of whether or not to create a logo for a truck trailer dealership is a big deal. We live in a visual world and logos are tangible expressions of your organization's key messages. Although it's possible to create your own logo, most internally generated logos lack polish and punch. Even if your logo concept sounds simplistic, we recommend contracting your logo to a professional marketing and design firm because it's likely that the logo will be the face of your company for years to come.
Media Monitoring
Some marketing initiatives lend themselves to simple measurement while others are more challenging. Direct mail can be evaluated by tallying the cost of inputs (e.g. a premium mailing list, printing, postage, etc.) and measuring the number of customer responses you receive from the campaign. The difficulty comes when you are tasked with quantifying market presence and brand influence. Fortunately, media monitoring has the ability to give your truck trailer dealership a sense of market presence and other variables that are difficult to quantify. Even more importantly, media monitoring can alert you to negative commentary early, giving you the opportunity to counter negative mentions with more accurate and more positive messaging.
