Marketing Plans for Niche Markets
Marketing a Watches Service and Repair Business
Trying to market a watches service and repair business? It's a crowded marketplace, but with dedication and persistence, great marketing can help your business outperform larger competitors.
Marketing a watches service and repair business can be challenging, especially for business owners who lack a marketing background.
In this industry, long-term survivors build their strategies around a core of marketing essentials.
Bundling
Messaging matters - but only to the degree that it communicates value to cost-conscious consumers. Businesses that bundle products tap into the market's psyche by creating the perception (real or imagined) of cost-savings. Most watches service and repair businesses can use bundling to communicate value to their base. 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.
Improving Customer Loyalty
You've heard that it's less expensive to retain a current customer than it is to acquire a new one, right? For watches service and repair businesses, sorted and updated mailing lists obtained from top-tier providers are effective tools for customer acquisition. To encourage customer loyalty, you'll need to tap into deliberate mechanisms that incentivize customers to reward your brand with repeat business. In many cases, online channels can be leveraged to create innovative customer loyalty programs.
Product Knowledge
There is no substitute for being able to speak convincingly about your products in a watches service and repair business. Small product details translate into key value propositions which are critical for distinguishing a watches service and repair business from the rest of the field. If you can't articulate your products' unique characteristics, your messaging - and revenue stream - will suffer.
