Don't worry, you dont' need a lot of money to edge out your competitors when targeting and marketing to land new clients. It's about branding and marketing for success. The foundation of a strong branding and marketing program begins with the concept of over-delivery. Make sure you are prepared to do more for the client than any of your competitors can deliver.
Make sure you have a clear set of deliverables. No client wants to throw their money away on what might happen if they buy your product or service, they want clear deliverables that they can use to further their income, growth and ability to serve their clients.
Your target clients want to do business with consultants and businesses that are CENTER STAGE, that is, they are in the center of action commenting on the issues facing their industry. Professionals and consultants should seek out opportunities to be the quoted or commenting expert seen on, heard on or read about in Radio, TV, Print, Magazine and Internet Sites. Clients like to do business with people they feel are vital, creative, strong and engaged in their industry with plenty of energy to produce outcomes for them.
Make a difference in the lives of your clients. Teach them what they need to know to excel using your products and services. This way, your business becomes an investment for them in that they expect to earn a return on their purchase with your company. Also, by actively engaging in your client's success, you fuel your creativity to build new products and services that truly meet the needs of your marketplace and avoid the products and services that lead to nowhere.
Again, be sure you know your client's business model and how your products and services can help them be more successful and influential in their competitive strategy. Brand yourself as being key to thier success and understand that if you help your clients earn more money, land new clients themselves your products and services will be in demand.
