OUR EVER-EXPANDING FAMILY
From the desk of Taylor Abbett, President of Tailored Marketing Inc.
Summer is in full force. A time for vacations and recharging the batteries. Here at
TMI, the first part of the year has gone very quickly. Over the past few months we
have been working on the promotions for the Whiskey Rebellion Festival as well as
the development of some new websites like the upgraded Green Workplace
Challenge.
In addition, we have been working on getting ready for the launching of a new
product. This summer we will now be able to offer a turn-key sales/marketing
automation system which will give us another tool in evaluating the effectiveness of
certain marketing channels for our clients. Please keep us in mind should your
company be looking for an agency to give you help with your brand.
DEAR READERS
SAVE THE DATE
Project: A regional historic festival, the 2013 Whiskey Rebellion Festival
was looking for an agency to help generate awareness for the three day
event.
Strategy: TMI started promotions two months before the event with the
“Countdown to the Rebellion”through Facebook and a kick-off event in
Market Square to impact the Pittsburgh market. Other tactics included:
• The design and development of a new website and mobile site
• A robust social media platform that included content development,
several fan contests with custom apps, and advertising campaigns
• Media buys and coordination for print, digital, and radio, as well as
securing of anchor radio station, Bob 94 FM
• Creation of promotional materials and ads for print and digital
Results: Thousands of festival-goers ventured to downtown Washington
to enjoy the various events over the three days. During the campaign:
• The website saw a growth in the visitor rate of 154%
• The Facebook presence gained over 2,800 fans with a reach of
over 44,000 users
• Media campaign received over a million impressions

1) Nurture the willing: You can get started
with simple nurturing steps, like automating
responses to actions, such as form-fills, by
setting up timed follow-up communication to
prospects. When your business is ready, you can
increase the sophistication of lead nurturing by
identifying buyers personas and creating journeys.
2) Delight your prospects: Alert sales people in real-time
with automated lead alerts that show when prospects
are visiting your site so sales can contact prospects when
you are top of mind. Immediacy of response far
overshadows both time of day and day of week in its effect.
3) Sell how you sell: While the concept of Marketing Qualified
Leads (MQL) is very important, don’t let it dictate your sales
process. Use marketing automation’s lead scoring to gauge the
interest of your prospects and share that data with sales.
4) Stop annoying potential buyers: Having a form pop up every time
a prospect wants to read your best content annoys returning
prospects and buyers. Marketing automation provides the tools to
loosen up your content while still capturing precious visit data.
Marketing automation can tell who is returning to your site; why ask
them basic information again? Use the opportunity to ask them
further qualifying questions.
5) Track the ghosts: Anonymous tracking tells you the folks who are
on your website or blog who have not filled out a form or clicked on
your emails. The anonymous data can effectively identify which
organization is interested in you.
