Customers: any industry where paper assets abound.
Our market: highly competitive, long sales cycles, steep learning curve for buyers.
How effective is it for a small scanning and imaging company to execute industry or job function specific campaigns, i.e. accounts payable, check 21, conversions for small doctors' offices, engineering drawings, etc? Having been tasked with creating effective campaigns for this company while tapping into $3K to $4K available marketing dollars a month I am uncertain, maybe unconvinced is the right word, that blowing our wad on one specific type of campaign is wasteful and potentially hazardous to my career, especially given the number of marketing managers this shop has had. I have been lobbying for a generalist approach - we scan paper, we make images, we enable retrieval on demand. what could be simpler? How can I amplify a generalist strategy? What options do I have available to me?
Thank you for the help. If you had just $4K a months to spend what would you do to promote awareness and generate leads?
