Internal buy-in and understanding are signs of a good marketing strategy…
Our employees are our customers whether we like it or not. Whether we sell things employees need or sell only to specific agencies, if the employees buy into the packaging of the product, they can ensure our customers of its quality. If they do not, the product will not sell itself for an extended period of time, if at all. We can create the best device, software package, or process. Without the support of all of our partners, we just have a product.
Projections, for the most part are short-term, short-term in the respect to the life of the company. Storylines and key messages can be reinforced at a later time while new material is created to encourage buy-in and increase positive impact. Phased timelines allow for measures to be taken at key moments of the products lifecycle. These measures are based on the key messages and branding efforts that have been developed. Measurements should not be based on arbitrary satisfaction points as this would only provide satisfaction with the company not necessarily the product or service itself.
Strategy without values sway slightly as the breeze of change shifts with the expectations of solutions…
