Selling IoT: Pain Relievers vs Vitamins
Key Selling Points:
© 2016 Leantegra Inc. All Rights Reserved. Proprietary and Confidential
Pretty often your IoT products are just vitamins — the issue about matching problems and solutions!Customers need "pain relievers" to their specific problems!
Most important #1: exact match betweena customer's problem and your solution
Tangible ROI
Successful case studies (with numbers)
Local competitor examples: "Neighbor has it already!"
Popularity / large market share — not for MVP,unless you're Google or Amazon

Marketing for IoT: Go Vertical and Local!
© 2016 Leantegra Inc. All Rights Reserved. Proprietary and Confidential
IoT is complicated!People still don'tunderstand what thiswhole thing is about!
Mandatory: real-lifescenarios attached tobusiness needsand/or people needs.
Content marketing isunderestimated —online content sells!
Still, cold e-mails andremote communicationsfrom Ukraine — rarely workfor qualified prospects.
ISSUES
Regional presence and local partners are 100x timesmore efficient than cold e-mailing.
Content marketing via SMM is still very important —expect multiple leads, though many of them not qualified.
Advertise to verticals as the first priority!
