Marketing Research and Surveys
We provide the surveys, research and the recommendations for marketing,
advertising and public relations campaigns. Additionally,
as requested, we coordinate with corporate marketing departments or
external agencies to help position the surveyed messages for the highest
possible response.
We do not utilize focus groups, but instead conduct live one-on-one
interviews (in person or on the phone) with the client's customers,
prospects or both. We pride ourselves on surveying hard-to-reach publics
(senior corporate executives, doctors, lawyers, etc) but have conducted
thousands of customer surveys as well.
Competition Research
We will research what your competition is doing to market and sell
products or services that you currently sell or are considering selling.
We will investigate several issues for you regarding your competition,
including:
What are their successful sales actions?
What are their secrets to getting new customers?
Who are the leaders in the industry?
How do they sell their products?
What is their pricing?
What is their positioning in the market?
How would you best sell against them?
What do their customers think of them?
What motivates customers to buy the competition's products or services
instead of yours
Market Development Research (finding buyers
for products)
We will find out for you which "public" is likely to buy
your product and which won't. We can also find out for you which of
several "publics" or marketplaces are the best for you to
address in your marketing.
Potential Customer Needs and Wants Research
Using in-depth, one on one marketing research surveys, we will find
out what your targeted buying public wants, needs or would consider
valuable about your product or service.
We will find the "buttons" from your prospective customers'
own words that you will be able to use to increase the response to your
marketing activity. You will know the proper message and the proper
emotional framework in which to communicate, so your prospective customers
will come to you instead of your competition! You will know exactly
what will make your prospects buy from you!
Current Customer Needs and Wants Research
Do you know what your customers, clients or patients think of you
and your company or practice? Did you know that this can affect your
income and future sales?
What specifically motivated them to buy from you in the first place?
Would they do so again? Why or why not? We also find out what causes
you to lose customers if you do, and how to correct this.
And we will find out for you how to get your customers referring your
business to others. This is information that can increase your sales
and income dramatically.
The "No Sale" Package or "Why didn't you sell him?"
We will survey people who were "pitched" by your company
but did not close. By surveying that public we will find out specifically
why you didn't get the sale, and if the person later bought from someone
else, why they bought elsewhere. Most businesses never know why "the
one that got away" did get away. Now you will know. We will present
the exact action you should take to close your hot prospects next time.
You might even get a second chance at "the one that got away".
Market Studies / Surveys on Your Product or Service
We will research past studies and/or surveys on the product or service
which you are marketing. What have past marketing studies shown about
the potential of this product or service? What has worked and what hasn't?
Positioning Surveys
Your products have a position and that position comes from the mind
of your customers or prospects. How exactly should you position your
products, services, and company in your marketplace so as to "own"
it? We'll give you the surveyed answer to this question to fit YOUR
company, product, service or practice.
Ethnic Surveys
Your company is at risk if you are attempting to sell in an area where
you do not know the ethnic values. Surveying the principal ethnic group
or groups which comprise your potential and/or current customers, we
will determine what these people value about your products or services
from their cultural perspective. Then and only then will you know the
"buying" buttons of your potential and/or current customers.
Branding
Your product or service should have a name which encourages your potential
customers to buy it and which is easily remembered. Your name should
also communicate what you do. We will utilize marketing research technology
to work out several possible names for your service(s) and/or products(s)
and then survey these names to determine which ones interest your potential
customers most, and help "create want" for your service(s)
and/or products(s).
Web Development
We have an outstanding stable of talented web designers, graphic artists
and programmers that can make your website and Internet marketing activities
shine.
Full-Service PR
We provide extensive PR expertise to pave the way for your marketing
success.
- Offensive PR to help you get the attention you deserve and begin
gaining serious market share.
- Product Launch PR. We have helped scores of firms launch products
and get so many leads they had to discontinue the PR to catch up in
their ability to deliver!
- Defensive PR for those situations in which your firm is the victim
of a “black propaganda campaign” and you have to defend
yourself just to retain the share of your market you have now. You
can hold you own and even gain despite everything.
