Mplans.com: Excerpt from Marketing Plan Pro Sample Plan

Marketing Vision:  The Road Construction industry is poised to take advantage of the Economic Stimulus package but it will be determined by the bids that the road contractors win. Private-sector spending has come to a halt. Our marketing efforts must be spent on providing existing customers with the reassurance they need so that we are his first call when searching for equipment. We also must ensure that we can provide an adequate parts supply for our present customers. These are operational issues, more so than marketing ones, but it is an important part of our sales and marketing effort to be the easy choice for their needs and to provide local support during the prime paving system.

Our marketing plan takes a conservative approach in trying out some new communications methods. We have found that many of the customers we are reaching at the present time are seeking more direct contact. Since the audience is relatively well-known and in a geographic area, we are testing how best to use the new technologies before advancing.

John Janstch of Duct Tape Marketing wrote a great blog piece today and I copied it with permission to my e-mail list. An excerpt from the piece:

"Small businesses must change the way they think about and approach lead generation – they must think more in terms of being found and less in terms of finding. People are still looking for solutions, trying out new services and buying things they want, they’ve just changed how they go about doing it. In a way the control of message consumption has changed with it."

If you have not read it, I encourge you to do that. If you read it in my e-mail please leave a comment here, I would appreciate sharing what my people think about it. Also feel free to copy and paste your comment on John’s blog.
