Marketing Advice By Business Type
Marketing a Smoothies Retail Business
Trying to market a smoothies retail business? It's a crowded marketplace, but with dedication and persistence, great marketing can help your business outperform larger competitors.
For a smoothies retail business, the line between success and failure is based on more than the execution of core competencies.
What to know the characteristics that distinguish leading smoothies retail businesses from average companies? Surprisingly, the ability to create clear brand messages often outweighs product quality and other considerations.
Contests
You've seen the contest concept in action, even if it wasn't used in a smoothies retail business. Although a contest won't automatically translate into higher revenue, it can be a strategic component of a comprehensive marketing plan. However, a contest is not a no-risk marketing option. Like anything else, poor execution can foil your attempts to improve your business's market presence. That's why smoothies retail businesses invest time and resources to create contests they can count on to achieve desired outcomes.
Email Campaigns
Today's consumers are extremely tech-savvy. They rely on social media and email to both receive and transmit brand messages. What does that mean for your company? It means the odds are in favor of email campaigns actually connecting with customers. For smoothies retail businesses, collecting and updating the email addresses of qualified recipients isn't cost-effective. At Gaebler, we recommend buying mailing lists from professional, third-party providers. Purchased lists aren't the only source for customer contacts, but they can be used to create fast momentum for email campaigns and other initiatives.
Technological Expertise
The PR and marketing community has embraced technology with open arms, transforming basic marketing concepts into sophisticated, tech-driven systems and solutions. The consequence for smoothies retail businesses tends to be a search for news to leverage technology to scale up the organization's promotional firepower. In addition to marketing professionals, many businesses now include IT units as valued partners in their strategic marketing efforts.
