Getting to Know Your Client (Target Marketing)

If you’re reading this, chances are you are someone who is interested in:

(a)  Attracting More Clients/Customers (which will increase your income)

(b)  Spending Less Time to Attract Those Clients (to give you more time to enjoy the additional income!)

target market question 150x150 Getting to Know Your Client (Target Marketing)

Understanding your ideal client and/or target market is essential to good business planning and time management.  In my business consulting practice and live workshops on marketing, one of the first questions I ask is ”Who is your ideal client and/or target market?”  The answer I most often get is “Everyone!”   At that moment I take a long deep breath and prepare to break the news to them that in fact NOT everyone will want to buy your product or service.  While it may be useful or helpful to everyone, the truth is, NOT everyone is going to see the need or have the desire.  

The key to your success, both in terms of the revenue you’ll generate and the time you spend, lies in clearly defining your target market so you are delivering your message to those most likely to want your product or services.  By taking the time now to focus on defining your target market, you will open the door to more clients, strategic alliances (people who serve the same market as you do), and spend less time running in circles looking for a needle in a haystack.

Why Client Profiles Are So Important: Knowing Your Target Market

target market question 150x150 Why Client Profiles Are So Important: Knowing Your Target MarketAs a marketing specialist, one of the first questions I ask my clients is “Who is your target audience?”  All too often the answer is “Everyone!”  While I’m sure you’ve heard this before, when was the last time you actually sat down and made a list of your the commonalities that exist among your client base.  Often times, business owners begin with one target market in mind and later discover that they are, in fact, serving a different segment of the market.  Take the time this week to review your existing client base and create a Client Profile.  Some of the most important things to consider:  age range, sex (male or female), hobbies, marital status, children, what other services may they be using, income range, business size.

Clearly understanding your target audience will enable you to:

  • Be more effective in your marketing efforts

  • Network in places where your client is more likely to be

  • Give you a clearer picture on who you can create strategic alliances with.
