Trade Show And Event Marketing

Trade show/Event marketing and execution

One of the greatest challenges all marketers face is getting “bums in seats”. As someone who plans events, whether it’s a booth at an industry trade show, a customer appreciation event, or a workshop, events are where you get to shake hands, look someone in the eye and have the 1:1 conversations critical for business success.

Whether you’re a first-time exhibitor, a tradeshow vet, or seasoned event planner, it’s easy to get bogged down in the sea of logistics, paperwork, and badge scans. As a result, your pre- and post-show marketing programs often suffer. And so does your ROI. We’re here to help.

LET’S PUT BUMS IN SEATS

Print Marketing

Print marketing

Print is not dead. Print as we know it, however, has evolved.

It is an established fact that 53% of customers are more likely to read and save a direct mail piece than an email. Only 26% might open a marketing email even if it is from a known source.

As the old saying goes, “you never get a second chance to make a first impression”. Do your business cards leave a lasting and positive impression? Are you maximizing print to create a memorable brand experience?

Most businesses no longer have dedicated print buyers and those responsible with the task may have little or no experience with printers or the print medium itself. Because of that, many businesses are missing out on the powerful impact of print.

Using a variety of techniques and technology, today’s printers can produce your message on all sorts of substrates – like fabric, metal, or plastic – with incredible finishes and creative die-cuts that leave a powerful and lasting impression that delivers results.

Whether you are a print provider or print buyer, understanding the role that print plays in today’s marketing mix is a key factor to success.

Are you ready to embrace the power of print?

LET’S MAKE AN IMPRESSION

Direct marketing

You’ve gone to all the trouble of crafting the perfect subject line, one that is not blacklisted, has just the right amount of words, and is compelling and catchy, even on a smartphone. But today’s buyers expect more than a crafty email.

Key characteristics of tomorrow’s (and a good chunk of today’s) buying audience include how and what content is being consumed and shared, their approach to companies and brands, as well as the different ways in which they respond to outbound and inbound marketing.

Studies have shown that campaigns that used a combination of print, email, social media and mobile applications had an average response rate of 9.5%, compared to 7.9% in campaigns that used email only.

Maximize your direct mail success with the content and channels that engage your buying audience.

    Joanne is exceptional! Within 5 minutes of meeting her I knew that I had to bring her onto my team as our online marketing expert. In our first meeting Joanne brought forth at least 10 creative marketing ideas that were geared towards my target market and that could be implemented immediately. She has done more for our company than any single provider I have ever used. Thank-you for being part of our team.

    Joanne is an experienced, personable marketing pro who took responsibility immediately as Director of Global Marketing to lead her team in North America and Europe to redefine Xenos' marketing strategy and tactics for increased brand awareness and lead generation. Knowledgeable and proactive, Joanne gets things done and with her sense of humour is fun to work with. Joanne managed the execution of PR strategy, working with internal executive and product management and external agencies, to redefine key corporate and product branding and messaging. She also was instrumental in creating effective new lead generation methods, as well as redefining the strategy and managing implementation of a new web site with SEO, Adwords and email campaigns, in addition to efficiently managing trade shows, webinars and events and the introduction of social media marketing techniques. It was a pleasure to work with Joanne and I recommend her to any organization seeking these capabilities and qualities.

    Joanne always brought some fresh ideas and results to the way we marketed to customers. Joanne developed a webinar series that tapped some internal subject matter experts and orchestrated it in such a way that squeezed some really good content out and created a loyal following with our key customers. I would recommend Joanne without reservation.
