5 Steps For Taking Your Product To Market (Part 3)
4. Take Action Every Day
This tactic requires discipline and is one you cannot afford to overlook. You must do something everyday which moves you closer to putting your product on the market. Be sure you are advertising and utilizing both online and offline resources to do so. Go out and network and establish business relationships in your community. Join your chamber of commerce. Approach your niche market everyday with the intent to advance. Be creative, daring and tenacious. Pick up the phone and tell the people about you and how your product can change their lives for the better.
5. Sell, Sell, Sell!
Sell, sell, sell. But not without a specific strategy. Depending on your product and respective marketing plan, you may want to focus selling to individuals first, then small businesses. As you reach your goals, you are more than likely to open up to retail or wholesale. Business-to-business selling is fundamental in the success of many products. Todd Mogren, a successful Internet Marketer says, “We began selling to individuals. Lots of our growth today is coming from businesses, including IBM, UCLA and Ford.”
Illustrate the low cost and benefits of your product. Break down the price to its smallest increment and make the benefit clear. For example,
“Enjoy delicious, high quality, coffee delivered to your home for less than 80 cents a day.”
