Current State Analysis

In this section we look at where you are now so we can figure out the quickest route from Point A to Point B. In each of these categories, describe what sets you apart from the competition.
Describe the product or service you want to improve performance on. Pick one or two that will give your the most volume or highest return on investment.
Describe what advertising you’re currently doing and what has been working and not working for you.
Are you the low-price leader, or the high-end more quality choice? Maybe you’re right in the middle. How does your pricing set you apart from the competition?
How does your customer service set you apart from the competition?
Describe your service area and the different ways customers can purchase your product/service. For example, we service a 60-mile radius and a customer can call or schedule an appointment online.

Promotional Strategies

Promotional strategies can be broken down into three easy categories. Reach (who you’re reaching), Message (what you’re telling them), and Frequency (how many touchpoints are included in a campaign.)
Briefly describe your best customer. Remember, your best customer isn’t “everyone” it is the type of customer it is easiest for you to sell to.
What is your current brand message? What types of messaging resonate most with your best customer.
Are there times of year when you’re busy or slow? Give us any information that will help us devise touchpoints for your marketing campaign.
