If you still use these words as your differentiation: - digital transformation - synergy - next-gen - disruptor Don't blame your sales and marketing for not hitting their KPIs. We've all been guilty of parading these terms (me too, I confess). But these buzzwords are on everyone's lips. They rarely set you apart. You may have Oscar-winning marketing campaigns and superstar sales reps. But they can't sell a service that promises 'digital transformation' (anyone really knows what that means anyway?) if it's indistinguishable from the rest. Yet, — an average pre-sales call and decent marketing WILL sell a unique service at a premium price point. Make service differentiation your priority for 2024. If 'synergy' doesn't sell, your uniquely valuable service will. Agree? Any other buzzwords that drive you crazy? #digitalmarketing #differentiation #valueproposition

🚀 The Secret to Unlocking Scalable Growth 🚀 For startups and mid-market businesses, relying solely on a founder's vision, a single successful product, or technical ingenuity often leads to a growth plateau.

It's crazy how a lot of people don't think about the ROI impact of getting your marketing & revenue operations house in order. I've first hand (for a company) generated more pipeline in a quarter than the prior year just through operations work. Specifically around capturing, routing, and alerting of inbound requests and lead activity. Operations can be the biggest catalyst or the biggest anchor to your growth velocity.

What's the single biggest mistake early-stage founders make with sales and marketing? In my humble opinion, it's 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆. And I mean consistency in terms of effort and identity. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁 Achieving product-market fit is a game of discovery and accelerated learning. But if you’re selling one week and taking a break the next, you’re missing valuable opportunities to iterate and refine your approach. Like going to the gym, you’re building muscle, and you need to keep at it to get results. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗜𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘆: Your set of unique selling points needs to be conveyed across all your customer touch points. How you deliver it on your landing page, your marketing materials, or your sales pitches may vary by channel and customer, but the core message must be coordinated and consistent to effectively reinforce your value proposition. If each touchpoint just does it’s own thing, customers get confused and your value gets watered down. When you’re consistent across both dimensions, you have both the frequency and the scaffolding to see what variables are working and what’s not. You not only build good habits, but you can also take a much more data-driven, rigorous approach to driving repeatable demand for your product. And that’s a foundation I believe startups should build sooner rather than later.
