Trade Show Marketing is the best vehicle for face-to-face prospecting.
Brian Keobke shares his insight on growing your business with trade shows.
Growing your Business with Trade Shows
by Brian Keobke, CME, The Portables

Essential Tactics for Unlocking the Value of Your B2B Brand
Real-world ways you can start strengthening your B2B brand and using it to drive revenue at your organization.
Essential #3 of 6:
Communicate your company’s key messages and competitive advantage through your brand.
A brand is more than just a pretty face. Your B2B brand enables you to communicate your company’s value proposition and core messages while impacting the way the world feels about your company and the products and/or services you offer (brand perception). If you have positioning and messaging documents in place, be sure to have these inform your brand strategy. For instance, if one of your key messages focuses on superior customer service, ask yourself if your brand evokes feelings of friendliness, dependability, and so on. By consistently integrating your B2B brand with your overall marketing strategy, you’ll reinforce your key values and messages to prospects and customers at every opportunity. You can also use your B2B brand as a competitive differentiator. Ask yourself why prospects and customers should buy from you versus your competitors, and make sure your brand conveys these reasons in every outward facing communication, whether it’s your website, marketing collateral, or speaking opportunities.
