What is a good marketing strategy for a Massage Therapist?
What would prompt you to visit a new Massage Therapist or see one for the first time?
A really good deal on the hourly rate? Or some other marketing ploy? What would really grab your attention and get you to make that appointment?
No perverted answers please.
The thing is that people really want a solution to their problem – whatever that may be – pain, stress, injury – you have to show them that you have that solution. People want to know if you can help them so you have to appeal to what their problem is.
It also depends on what method of marketing you are using. You can do much more with a website because people will find you by searching for ‘massage, your city’ and are already looking for massage.
If you are doing mailings to random populations it will be hit or miss. If you are doing targeted marketing to special groups or populations you have a much better chance of being able to get to what really appeals to them – like athletes want to run faster, corporate people want less stress, increased concentration and to feel better, people who are injured want less pain.
Just having a low rate usually only gets people who want discounted massages. You want people who value massage and will be willing to pay you the amount you need to make a decent living so you don’t feel resentful. If you do an introductory rate – be sure to get people’s addresses and emails so you can do follow up educating with them. You should also have a package to hand them or flyer with info on why getting regular massage is a necessity.
What subsections should be included in a Marketing Strategy to re-brand and increase sales of 1 branch?
I need to write a marketing plan for one facility within a care company which is underperforming compared to the others. One reason is due to poor branding and attracting the wrong clients. What elements should I include to denote the rebranding of the centre and potentially alter the target market in peoples minds, and increase its revenue?
Your question is rather generalized and vague as to what aspects you are looking for.
Going solely by what you have written in your initial question, I see that you have a pretty good grasp of the problem. Restate your main question, even to yourself, and be as specific as possible. What do you mean by elements and subsections? The more specific you are, the more you will find your own answers.
Generally, your marketing strategy should state your unit’s mission and objectives, your target market (a description of user types, model user, demographics, income, geographic area, education, age, status, etc.), budget, and the four Ps (Price, Product, Place, Promotion) or your marketing mix.
Answer the following questions: What is wrong with your current branding? What are the right and wrong clients? How will you reach the right clients? What is your message? What networks (friends, referrals) do your ideal clients or users use to reach you? Is it easier to reach these networks than the general public.
Once you have done some basic work on these issues, you can determine, along with your budget, what your appropriate advertising and promotion efforts should become (e.g. press release, radio, posters, logo, icons, slogan, news article, letter to the editor, banners, fliers, website, email lists, newsletter, face-to-face, etc.).
Keep in mind, the target of your message may differ from your target market. If your clientele reaches you mainly through referrals, you may want to target those who refer, rather than the ultimate users. This can be both cheaper and more effective.
What is the effective marketing strategy?
I’m going to be a marketing director for a medical transcription company..our target market are doctors…what will be the best marketing tool that will cater to doctors.
The basic question behind a start market strategy is. . Will they buy ? (The product, service and experience)
In essence, this is the question that fuels the balance of supply and demand in every market.
Look into every variation that motivates the potential customer (Doctors, nurses even secretaries and administrative staff), and continue asking subsequent questions until a final VALUE PROPOSITION and a final MESSAGE are developed. Question like:
Who will buy, at what price, with what options, in which locations, under what circumstances will they switch or remain loyal to the total experience.
If possible draft a Strategic Canvas and Brand Scorecard, to see where you would like to position your VALUE PROPOSITION
Do not hesitate to conduct focus groups and interviews (instead of polls or surveys) with your existing customers ans sales reps so you can draft out a road-map based on the actual customer lifetime value (CLV)
This will give you a clear time-line of activities for your first semester on the job. REMEMBER TO FOCUS ON YOUR SALES FORCE, only together will you maintain your strategy operational. . . Good Luck

i want to know the best marketing strategy to use in running a fast food & bar?
i have a small fast food centre with about 24 seating capacity,when i opened it newly 4 days ago there was rush but eversince then the population of customers has reduced drastically .what might be the cause & the best marketing strategy to use?
Sounds like your audience is very driven by energy. One strategy I have seen work is to go down to your local "cool" tv station and surprise their morning show by walking on with some of the food, while you dress in some crazy outfit.

what would be the best low cost marketing strategy for a beginning business?
we are doing our feasibility studies and i’m a management student, im not really familiar with marketing strategies, hope you can suggest something, really appreciate it, thanks!
First off, you need to create an online presence (aka, a website). Yahoo charges $12 a month to host a website for you, and they make it very easy to publish the page within minutes.
Second, you should sign up for Yahoo! and Google’s Pay Per Click Word Ads. This will help drive people to your website, and you can dictate how much you want to spend per day. Another good one is MyPoints.com, which advertises for you to a demographic you select.
Third, you should sign up with affiliate companies (like Commission Junction) where you pay a commission to businesses and individuals when they sell your product for you. (This is free to join, and you dictate the commission amount.)
Fourth, if you have a product you are selling, you should sign up to show your product at a trade show. This could cost $1,000 to go to, but you can sell enmasse immediately.
Fifth, you should open an "e-store" on ebay and list your products there. This costs a couple bucks per item to sell.
Lastly, you should try to get your local newspaper, and other newspapers around the country, to print a press release regarding your business. This costs the price of the Press Release, which you can put together yourself.
These are the fastest and most basic options for any business that wants to get their products to market.
Hope this helps.

What is the best web site/web service for finding SENIOR LEVEL jobs in marketing strategy and analytics?
Monster, Career Builder and the like seem only good for junior or mid level positions. My specialty is actually pricing strategy, but a broader search area I use is market strategy, or market analytics. Looking for an effective site (Ladders, or ExecU Net type) that focuses on Senior Director or VP level positions.
Management Recruiters does a good job.
Also, if you’re at that level, you should be networking to get your next job – that’s how I’ve gotten my last 3. Mostly working trade shows, but not "looking for work", just looking to network.
