B2C Value is self-evident Exposure & credibility biggest issues Timely programs Engagement Music distribution is their link to the consumer

Network Media – Fox, CNN, RT
B2C – but – B2B From an Advertising Perspective Value is self-evident Exposure & credibility
Differentiation Timing Engagement Alternative delivery mechanisms is the connection to the consumer
TV Radio Print Social is secondary

IT/Telecom – Cisco, Scale Computing, Etc
B2B Value is not self-evident Audience is focused Context is necessary
Then Differentiation Exposure Timing
Connection to the consumer is Information they can’t get elsewhere (this is the value)

Accounting – Cbiz, RSM McGladrey
B2B Value is evident Specialized message, language Audience is focused Message is focused and timing is crucial Not entirely social if at all in most cases Context is completely necessary

In Every Case
Context moved from less to greater importantance Timing Is More Essential Value Is Established

What Is My Value?
Your value is the sum of the benefits you provide Not features, Not your product, Not your service, Not your brand
The ability for your prospects to understand that is governed by
Context Timing Relevance

Questions To Ask Of Your Program
What is my value to customers/prospects How is my marketing program describing that
Is it effective?
What channels make the most sense for my value Who are my competitors
Is their message effective?
Am I in context with my audience Who is my audience, what is their social makeup Which websites & topics define the conversation I’m in, or
going to be in What are the social characteristics of my audience

A Mechanism Used To Help Tell The Story
Who are we Why do we exist in business What value do we provide Who is our audience What channels make the most sense for us (given that criteria) Socialify your products/services (socially personify) Create a story around each new social identity
Give people a reason/value to interact
Create a specific engagement strategy for each

The Key To Marketing Integration
Your voice is not your product Just like your customers voice is not their product, but it IS
their value YOU MUST Understand
Context Your Voice Your Competitors Voice Your Customers Voice
You create your voice, Your customer defines it, Your competitor will try to emulate it, You must master it
![Page 23: How to tell your story without advertising](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/55595138d8b42a93708b464c/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Marketing(man’s) Creed
This is my voice. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My voice is my best friend. It is my life, in marketing. I must master it as I must master my life. My voice, without me, is useless. Without my voice, I am useless (to my clients).
I must use my voice true. I must speak more accurately than my competitor who is trying to best me.
I must solve my customers problem with my voice, before my competitor can.
I must be vigilant because not only do I have a voice, as does my competitor, but so does my customer.
Their voice is even more important than mine for what they say merely reveals what my voice should echo in capability, responsiveness and action.
