o Identify your buyers personaes, their problems or
aspirations and their typical behavior (when buying /
non buying; offline/online)
o Find an editorial line not too crowded – you are
starting up a media!
o Make it unique, personal, diverse formats, with the
right tone of voice
o Be patient but gently aggressive (build a subscriber
base, not a funnel) – payoff is 12 to 18 months

2. You don’t need 1 positionning
o Picture
Don’t rely on a single trick
2. You don’t need 1 positionning
o Digital & offline channels are diverse… and can be targeted
o It’s like a ‘salmon trap’ – start by getting the positioning the
buyer wants to hear (but stay close to what you do…)
o Then get him to where you want him to be
o Remember, it’s a journey, not a funnel – it’s not just a
probability game, but an influence game
2. Don’t be TOO honest
o ‘Request a demo’
-> Get a qualifying call
o ‘HR Software’
-> Recruiting software
o Content marketing
-> Get awareness of
your brand (today)
3. The right process
3. The right process
Think
Do
Measure
Kill/ Expand/ Adjust
4. The right people
o ‘Digital natives’
o Autonomy / project ownership
o Evolution / Coaching
o Externally focused / journalist mindset
o Mix of ‘event’ practical people and copy/content people
o Creativity is a process, not a skill
