Marketing by Being First

I admit that this idea is not new. But, DuctTapeMarketing reminds us that the media loves firsts.

Okay, so in 2005, its pretty difficult to be the first to do something. You won't be the first with your business. But maybe you are a realtor and team up with an insurance agent to offer some product or discount to your client? Maybe you are a doctor and you are teaming up with a chiropractor in the same office to offer help to your patients?

The point is that you may not be the first doctor, but you can be first at something. And if you are first, the media will cover your event. That will get you free publicity - which, in my opinion, is the best kind.

Great post.
I agree if you are first at something the media considers it news.The best kind of press is good free press.

Thanks

This is a great post. I recently went through a Marketing course, and one of the ideas about getting known is to pioneer a new field, or in the case of this post, a new aspect of the field.

To get business coming to you (which is what we all want, right) you have to be known in the field for something. Become known by pioneering a new aspect of the field, further your knowledge in the field, or by taking on a leadership role in the field.

With Facebook and Twitter being among the leaders of the Social networks, marketing as a small business is being transformed..
Respondents according to the Vertical Response survey appear to need some differentiation with the use of SE marketing and Social media Marketing………

I think if you are the first at something it will always have some effect but if everyone is doing it then it turns people away.

Being first is always an advantage. But don't overdo as you must be able to sustain it .

Being the first one is really a promotion line you can use that no one else can use.

Yo defendía a capa y espada http://www.bolsosonline.eu a Cupcakes by Tom, pero las tres

últimas veces que los he comprado la calidad ya no es la misma. Si bien sí son los más

baratos que conozco, ante la proliferación de las cupcakerias se quisieron subir a este boom

y aumentaron su precio. http://www.sac-burberry-echarpe.org
No sólo la calidad del cupcake disminuyó, también antes los que trabajan ahí eran muy amables

y ahora como que ya se les subió o tal vez sólo fue mala suerte y me tocó el empleado ro?oso

About cleaning barrels there are lots of good products but keep in mind what works best on plastic in a shotgun barrel may not be the best thing to remove copper from a rifle barrel.
