A  company  with  just  10  salespeople,  will  generate  32,000  brand  messages  per  year,  if  each  salesperson  speaks  to  4  buyers,  sends  8  emails,  make  1  presenta1on  and  speaks  to  3  partners  per  day.

We  interviewed  more  than  50  sales  and  marketing  professionals  over  the  past  2  years  and  we  asked  the  question  “how  clear  is  your  message  on  a  scale  of  1-­‐10”  the  average  response  was  only  5/10  for  clarity

According  to  Forrester  Research,  90%  of  meetings  salespeople  have  with  buyers  contribute  no  value  from  the  buyers  perspective.  That  is,  Salespeople  cannot  connect  the  buyer’s  challenge  with  their  solution      CLEARLY    -­‐  Fixing  your  Messaging  presents  a  huge  opportunity  to  improve  inbound  lead  flow,  sales  engagement  and  to  qualify  and  close  more  business

This  Chart  from  analyst  Mirm  CSO  Insights  shows  effectiveness  vs.  effort  in  implementing  various  sales  productivity  initiatives.    Advanced  Marketing  Concepts  sales  and  marketing  alignment  method  and  WittyParrot  combine  sales  messaging,  knowledge  management  and  collaboration  and  they  are  all  relatively  easy  to  do,  inexpensive  and  can  move  the  needle.

1.  Differentiation  is  a  big  deal  today,  when  everyone  looks  and  sounds  the  same.  

According  to  Sirius  decisions,  the  #1  inhibitor  to  sales  success  is  the  inability  to  communicate  value  in  a  way  that  sets  you  apart

1.  Here  is  an  unbeatable  formula  for  differentiation  –    Admarco  can  deliver  all  3  in  WittyParrot  along  with  other  enabling  technology    

•  Capturing  the  value  proposition  and  relevant  proof  points  and  delivering  INSIGHT  in  a  way  that  disrupts  status-­‐quo  thinking  is  differentiating  market-­‐leading  companies.  

•  RESPONSIVENESS  is  a  huge  differentiator.  If  you  can  respond  to  inbound  leads  inside  5  minutes,  you  will  initiate  20  times  more  conversations  than  your  competitors  who  wait  an  hour  to  respond.  If  you  do  nothing  else,  this  will  grow  your  business.  Responsiveness  also  means  getting  your  email  in  the  buyer’s  inbox  inside  5  minutes  of  your  call  if  you  want  to  get  it  read  and  acted  on.  

•  CONTEXT,  is  important.  When  you  do  speak  to  a  buyer  you  need  to  know  how  engaged  they  are,  if  they  are  opening  your  email,  what  Web  pages  they  visited  on  your  Website  and  any  prior  history  with  your  company.  

Get  all  three  right  and  you  will  be  in  a  very  select  group  of  the  World’s  best  companies.

Advanced  Marketing  Concepts  began  as  consultative  sales  training  business  10  years  ago.    We  recognized  immediately  that  without  a  strong  value  proposition  and  effective  messaging  –  sales,  marketing  and  support  groups  would  revert  to  “product  speak”-­‐  talking  about  product  features  instead  of  listening  to  and  engaging  buyers  around  business  issues.        We  began  using  MESSAGING  ARCHITECTURE  in  our  Mirst  engagement  to  capture  and  share  the  value  proposition.    It  starts  with  a      *  Role-­‐based  persona  *  Win  themes  connect  capabilities  to  buyer  needs  *  We  Abstract  Positioning  Pillars  and  Big  Idea  from  the  underlying  win  themes.

We  have  used  HubSpot’s  Inbound  Marketing  Platform  since  2008  and  understand  the  challenge  of  creating  thought  leading  content.      Content  Creation  templates  help  writers  to  create  great  MARKETING  MESSAGING  copy  for  blogs,  web  pages  and  email  that  is  relevant  to  buyers  needs  and  on  message.

1.  Here’s  a  Question-­‐  How  do  you  generate  BRAND  MESSAGING  without  a  clear  value  proposition?    

The  answer  is  -­‐  It’s  very  difMicult.    We’ve  all  been  in  lengthy  brainstorming  sessions  to  develop  messaging  -­‐  –that  in  the  cold  light  of  the  next  day  doesn’t  hang  together.

Messaging  Matters  and  Bottom-­‐up  brand  messaging  works,  but  it  requires  process,  leadership  and  concentrated  effort  and  we  can  help.      

Now  lets  revisit  Forrester’s  numbers  9/10  meetings  with  buyers  are  failures.  Salespeople  need  a  strong  value  proposition  to  connect  capabilities  with  buyer’s  needs.    Advanced  Marketing  Concepts  helps  to  create  SALES  READY  MESSAGING  that  differentiates  and  ampliMies  the  brand  message  to  help  companies  speak  with  one  voice    

Page 13: Sales and Marketing Alignment, Content Reuse with WittyParrot webinar presentation 12.5

HOW  to  begin?-­‐    The  Messaging  process  starts  with  a  BRAINSTORM    4-­‐7  people  is  an  ideal  group  consisting  of  thought  leaders,  marketers,  and  1  or  2    top  salespeople

First  brainstorm  the  BUYER  PERSONA  of  target  buyers,  their  Role,  Goal  Barriers  to  success,    Implications    of  failure,  the  status-­‐quo  constraints  and  Industry  Issues

Next  we  map  product  win  themes  CAPABILITIES  to  buyer  GOALS.  At  the  intersection  of  needs  and  capabilities  we  have  solutions…  and  a  story.

Finally  we  put  everything  together  in  a  MESSAGING  ARCHITECTURE  I’m  going  to  show  you  a  completed  Messaging  Architecture  in  WittyParrot.
