ABOUT FIELD MARKETING

WHAT IS FIELD MARKETING? Field marketing and marketing Professional in Hindu colony is becoming more popular for companies in various industries. From food and beverage to consumer goods. It’s a tool that can be used to showcase latest products or services in a face to face environment with consumers. Furthermore companies recognise the importance of having brand ambassadors and reps on the ‘front line’ introducing the public to new innovations or delicious treats. This is done in the ‘field’; around shopping centers and in retail hot spots, expos and events, university campus’ and sport stadiums to name a few. Most campaign activities focus on customer facing roles including product demonstrations, direct selling and street training teams. However not all field marketing is consumer facing such as auditing and merchandising. Goals and outcomes of field marketing will differ from company to company. Some campaigns are designed to increase brand awareness or sales. While others may be to collect data and feedback about the product and its market. At Splatter we have all the tools necessary for the clients desired outcome to be achieved WHAT A FIELD MARKETING TEAM LOOKS LIKE. For successful field marketing campaigns companies might have dedicated teams within their business whose task it is to be creative and manage field marketing initiatives. However agencies are also on hand to support a campaign. By offering staff, management and infrastructure the client can focus on the more creative aspect of the campaign. A field marketing agency and  marketing Professional in Hindu colony tends to work in territories operating with reps within their own regions. Often overlooked by regional or national managers depending on the scale of the team. Although territory management is more important for wide scale national distributing business, smaller brands are recognising the importance of managing promotions on a more local scale using teams to promote, audit and sell in their regions.

WHAT CAN FIELD MARKETING DO FOR YOUR BUSINESS?

1. PRODUCT DEMONSTRATIONS

As mentioned already, demo days are a popular tool of field marketing. These campaigns can stretch from as little as one week to 6 months however some are continuous and full time. For consumer goods this would mean having brand representatives in retail stores and around shopping centers, events or road shows. Finally The Brand Ambassadors are engaging with the consumer and showing them how the product or service works. This is important as it allows a potential buyer to get hands on experience and a feel of ownership of the product; most importantly the rep is also on hand to answers any questions the customer may have. Although a sell is great the main aim of a demo campaign is brand awareness. Food and beverage take a slightly differently approach. By handing out free samples and one off deals of their product around retail and events, consumers are getting a taste of the brands latest delicious treats and at the same time everyone loves free food! Sampling is a fun activation and is effective when bringing new products to the high street. Marketing Training Learn more about product demonstrations by checking out our in depth guide here.

2. DIRECT SELLING

Much like product demonstrations these campaigns have brand reps or ambassadors at the center of them. The difference is it’s more about the selling of the product. Sales rep might have targets to adhere to. Finally these campaigns are super effective during peak times when the difference in a sale or not can be having a knowledgeable brand rep in store. Product Demonstrations Learn more about what direct selling is in our guide here.

3. RETAIL AUDITS AND MERCHANDISING

Auditing takes the reps out off the front line and away from the consumer. Auditing teams are used by marketers to monitor traditional marketing strategies that they put in place across retail. Most of all audits ensure that the brand is represented as it should be on shelves and around retail hot spots. Examples are; checking POS is as it should be across the territories, promotions advertised and running and paid spaces such as gondolas are set up. The data collected from the teams can be useful for the marketers to negotiate better future deals. In addition it also allows for mistakes to be rectified there and then by the reps. Splatter offer a live system that can be monitored by the client in real team meaning that red flags in the field can be dealt with instantaneously .Store Audits and Merchandising To learn more about Audits and merchandising view our guide here.

4. GUERRILLA MARKETING

When it comes to guerrilla marketing the gloves are off. They are usually low budget campaigns but with the right imagination and ideas they offer up some unprecedented results. Furthermore the term ‘Guerrilla Marketing’ itself is used to refer to campaigns that surprise consumers in locations and ways they might not usually expect. For that reason the experience remains with the consumer.

5. PRODUCT SAMPLING

Product Sampling To learn more about sampling work and what that involves view our guide here. WHO DOES WHAT? FIELD MARKETING REP: These guys and girls are the cream of the crop, they are masters of everything. Sometimes they may be conducting training sessions on major proportion for a retailers whole selling team. Another role they find themselves in are in is in the field collecting data and conducted audits. Finally everything in between including sales, merchandising, and working at events. Their primary concern is to drive brand awareness across their region through face to face with consumer and staff on a retail level. Read about what being a field marketing rep is all about here. FIELD MARKETING MANAGER: The field manager’s role is to oversee the field reps; it is their duty to ensure the field marketing campaigns achieves the clients intended goal. As the manager of all the region, they hold the responsibility of ensuring that all reps are trained and directed towards the client’s goals. In addition the field marketing manager will work closely with the clients marketing executives to align the marketing objectives and goals with team in the field. Finally they will then report the findings and feedback from the team. Read more about what being a field marketing manager entails here. BRAND AMBASSADOR/BRAND REP As we know by now the BA role is one of the most crucial in field marketing. Ultimately they are usually supplied by the marketing agency and are tasked with promoting and representing the client’s brand. This can work well within a University by hiring a student to represent the brand around campus; this is perfect for low budget campaigns as sometimes all it takes is giving the BA some products to show off. Some larger scale business’ use celebrities to endorse their product and services by making them the face of their brand using social media to promote to their following. Learn about the various roles within the Field Marketing industry are by reading our guide here. You can also join our team by signing up here. DO YOU NEED FIELD MARKETING? Field marketing as you have seen is a useful tool to accompany other traditional marketing strategies. For example a company might pay a huge amount of money for prime advertising spot during a major sports event. However if this is the case it is important for the brand to follow up with demos in stores. If there is a brand rep placed in store the following few days after the advertising campaign the customer is more likely to come over and ask some questions about the product. Another reason you might need field marketing is to ensure your budget has been well spent. After investing into a large scale in-store promotion campaign you want to ensure that it is implemented to the standard agreed with the retailer. Data can be collected by auditing teams and analysed to see if the money had been well spent. Furthermore it also gives opportunity for future campaigns to implemented with higher efficiency and success.

Name Advertising Agency

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Headline_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

The Naming Process

Yes, there is a process to naming. I believe that selecting a name should be one of the most important elements of your new advertising agency’s marketing plan (a new name also works for agency’s that need a facelift and repositioning.) And, importantly, this process deserves your team’s best thinking and the time to ensure that you have selected the most powerful name possible. Most of us thought hard about what name to give our kids or the letters on our vanity license plates. Your company deserves this as well.

Objectives & Positioning.

You cannot begin to name your brand without establishing a clear brand positioning and business objectives which in the case of ad agencies sometimes just means sounding cool. In San Francisco alone, agency names span Muh-Tay-Zik Hof-fer’s self-love (OK, maybe its just name-play) to Argonaut’s promise of brand voyage (I assume) to Engine Company 1 (yes, you guessed it) to Butler, Shine, Stern & Partners and Goodby Silverstein & Partners’ authenticity (for old times sake) to BarrettSF and its hope for BarrettNY — I suspect.

I don’t have a favorite agency name. But, thinking strategically, 72andSunny comes close to a home run with its evocation of warmth, smiles and a really nice terrace. In this case, 72andSunny nails one of the most important attributes that clients look for in a new relationship — chemistry. I’ll have a chilled Rose with that Cleo, please.

Personality.

What is your advertising agency’s personally? Are your smart, friendly, quirky, sincere, a quant jock, strategic or give good lunch? Maybe you are about where you live like London Advertising and its delivery of “London creative excellence” to any client anywhere in the world. Smart positioning and smart name. yes, own the whole city, why not.

Competitive Review.

OK, this is a duh. A competitive review should examine your competitor’s brand positionings and their brand names. Depending who you talk to there are like 4,000 agencies in the USA. Sounding like the competition won’t help you stand out.

Two agencies in town named Bread and Butter won’t work. Hmmm, Saatchi & Saatchi and M&C Saatchi might not work that well either. But then, M&C wanted to piss off Saatchi and they delivered on their objective.

For help in finding existing agency names, take a look at my global Pinterest Agency Directory and at Agency Compile’s list.

Brand Name Development.

Once you have your positioning and a deep understanding of your competition its time to review the type of names that will work hard for you. Are these neologisms, current usage words, hybrids, acronyms or founder names?

Trademark Review.

Performing a trademark review should be conducted early rather than later. Don’t fall in love with an agency name you can’t own (unless you have Apple-sized cojones.) There are three steps to reviewing trademarks. For initial review, I Google and Bing it, then its on to the United States Patent and Trademark Office trademark database. Use of this database is a good start but should not be considered conclusive.I also use the services of a trademark attorney. The final step is to trademark your new brand name. Believe me, get your trademark right because if you don’t it will eventually bite you hard.

Research.

Once I determine a set of potential brand names I pair these with the brand positioning and often a brand platform for each name to help evaluate the creative rationale and relative value of each name.

The names can be tested via qualitative (one-on-one or focus group methodology) or quantitative techniques including online surveys. Research? really? It sounds a bit pedantic right? It didn’t to Paul Malmstrom of Mother.

“The name ‘Mother’ basically came out of a focus group in the general public,” co-founder Paul Malmstrom told AdFreak. “Sixteen different tests were done around a randomly generated set of words, and all groups (except one) settled for ‘Mother’ as a top contender. The tests showed ‘Mother’ had pretty positive associations, ranging from ‘Nurturing,’ ‘Familiar’ to ‘Don’t eat with your mouth open.’ To the founders this seemed to be great values to base the agency on. Words not rated as high were, for example, ‘Wallet,’ ‘Meager’ and ‘Clogs,’ but a close runner-up was (inexplicably) the word ‘Wienerschnitzel.’ “
A Final Thought

Brand names do not work in an isolated environment. A brilliant brand name will not overcome the downside of a poor product or service; it will not be enough to surmount an ineffective marketing plan or inadequate budget. The powerful brand name must work in a holistic marketing environment to reach its potential.

That said, the powerful brand name will, without question, add energy to your marketing program, will make you stand out from the crowd, will make you memorable (very important in a world where word-of-mouth marketing is a key agency objective) and the right name could add real value to your company’s net worth.

“A” Is A Good Place To Start.

OK. One more final thought. A few years ago, I founded a company named ActiveBuddy – here is our start-up launch video. The name came from our entry into the Instant Messaging category with a service that let people use natural language to talk to computers using IM.  The name made sense – remember how active your buddy list was? That said, I witnessed a great extra benefit of ActiveBuddy when I attended Internet trade shows and realized that we were always at the top of the attendee, exhibitor or speaker list. Our name started with an “A”. While this realization was a “duh” moment, it made me fully understand the Power of the name AAA Plumbing within the context of directories and how important it is is to pay attention to every objective. Remember, gyro won’t go down easy in Athens.

B2B Experiential Marketing – When does it work?

What is experiential marketing? On the rise in recent years, Local Marketing Services in pune and experiential marketing is all about customer interaction with your brand. It offers a unique experience with products or services, allowing customers to get a feel for how they would use it in their lives. For years marketers have been trying to get customers to use and trial their products. In this way it’s not a new concept; there have however, certainly been some innovative spins on how it’s done. Let’s look at experiential marketing, how it can work for B2Bs and some of the ways it can help build your brand.

Emotional + Experiential Branding = Experiential Marketing The two elements that underpin experiential marketing are emotional branding and experiential branding.

Emotional branding: is about building the relationship between your brand and customers. Promoting emotional benefits like brand trust, security and credibility as a result of engaging with your brand is crucial. Experiential branding: designs and creates interactions that are sensory in nature, which emotionally influences preferences, shaping brand perception, and influencing satisfaction and loyalty. An excellent experiential marketing campaign is able to fuse both elements seamlessly together. Experiential Marketing for B2Bs In recent years interest in B2B experiential marketing has grown and some of the initial hesitation surrounding it has been replaced with a working understanding, when to do it, and how it stimulates ROI. For B2Bs, experiential marketing is generally less obvious, with the focus often on services (for example) in place of B2C exciting product launches. Oftentimes the B2B budget is also stretched. However we are seeing marketers begin to recognise the potentials that the experience can offer consumers. “The success of brand experience within the B2C market has not gone unnoticed, and B2B marketers are waking up to the potential of brand experience. However, there is a long way to go before they catch up with their B2C counterparts.” – Graham Ede, Ion Group 3 Examples of B2B experiential marketing Location with B2Bs can be one of the major barriers, and while it may not be easy to do experiential marketing in quite the same way as B2C, there’s certainly room to employ some of the same principals. Creating sensory interactions that promote core feelings of trust, and awareness of your product or services is central to this. Fulcrum marketing in public spaces – Linked with experiential, some marketers use a form of Fulcrum marketing. They tend to hold this drive in places where there are high concentrations of business buyers. Branded promotional staff can offer business people the opportunity to enter in a promotion, or sign up to attend an event whilst promoting the benefits of the product.  demonstrations & reward – as part of a targeted marketing strategy, those in the IT space can offer information via webinar or video, which can showcase some aspects of the technology solution. Some marketing and web-based tools such as  offer a free trial period, together with online coaching via Skype. This allows the user to build confidence in using the tool, and to experience all of the benefits of the trial period. At the end of the trial period (7 days), the participant is given a report with feedback on how well they have used the tool. Then they are awarded a certificate. Surprises and games – Surprising customers by showing up where they least expect you, gifting them, or sending them a card is a way to provide an out of the box experience and drive brand awareness. Another option could be to exhibit at a partner’s event as IBM did. Their interactive stand came complete with a candy bar, and plasma screens which posted live tweets from event attendees. Digital technology such as apps and games are also opportunity areas, and while often costly, look set to become more widespread and affordable in future. Experiential marketing reflects the growing importance of emphasising emotions to build successful brands. Digital media offers expanding opportunities to offer such experiences. In the ever-competitive B2B marketplace, it’s no longer enough to rely on traditional modes for lead generation. B2B marketers need to consider the complete kit that is available to them including; social media, mobile, search, paid advertising, print, telemarketing and increasingly placing emotion at the heart of it all with an experiential approach.

Once you have your positioning and a deep understanding of your competition its time to review the type of names that will work hard for you. Are these neologisms, current usage words, hybrids, acronyms or founder names?

Trademark Review.

Performing a trademark review should be conducted early rather than later. Don’t fall in love with an agency name you can’t own (unless you have Apple-sized cojones.) There are three steps to reviewing trademarks. For initial review, I Google and Bing it, then its on to the United States Patent and Trademark Office trademark database. Use of this database is a good start but should not be considered conclusive.I also use the services of a trademark attorney. The final step is to trademark your new brand name. Believe me, get your trademark right because if you don’t it will eventually bite you hard.

Research.

Once I determine a set of potential brand names I pair these with the brand positioning and often a brand platform for each name to help evaluate the creative rationale and relative value of each name.

The names can be tested via qualitative (one-on-one or focus group methodology) or quantitative techniques including online surveys. Research? really? It sounds a bit pedantic right? It didn’t to Paul Malmstrom of Mother.

“The name ‘Mother’ basically came out of a focus group in the general public,” co-founder Paul Malmstrom told AdFreak. “Sixteen different tests were done around a randomly generated set of words, and all groups (except one) settled for ‘Mother’ as a top contender. The tests showed ‘Mother’ had pretty positive associations, ranging from ‘Nurturing,’ ‘Familiar’ to ‘Don’t eat with your mouth open.’ To the founders this seemed to be great values to base the agency on. Words not rated as high were, for example, ‘Wallet,’ ‘Meager’ and ‘Clogs,’ but a close runner-up was (inexplicably) the word ‘Wienerschnitzel.’ “
A Final Thought

Brand names do not work in an isolated environment. A brilliant brand name will not overcome the downside of a poor product or service; it will not be enough to surmount an ineffective marketing plan or inadequate budget. The powerful brand name must work in a holistic marketing environment to reach its potential.

That said, the powerful brand name will, without question, add energy to your marketing program, will make you stand out from the crowd, will make you memorable (very important in a world where word-of-mouth marketing is a key agency objective) and the right name could add real value to your company’s net worth.

“A” Is A Good Place To Start.

OK. One more final thought. A few years ago, I founded a company named ActiveBuddy – here is our start-up launch video. The name came from our entry into the Instant Messaging category with a service that let people use natural language to talk to computers using IM.  The name made sense – remember how active your buddy list was? That said, I witnessed a great extra benefit of ActiveBuddy when I attended Internet trade shows and realized that we were always at the top of the attendee, exhibitor or speaker list. Our name started with an “A”. While this realization was a “duh” moment, it made me fully understand the Power of the name AAA Plumbing within the context of directories and how important it is is to pay attention to every objective. Remember, gyro won’t go down easy in Athens.
