欢迎回到 商务英语 我们系列的第三课的播客 市场营销英语. We’ve been looking at planning and presenting market research. 在今天的课程中, we’ll focus on how to use the research to develop a campaign strategy.
Great businesses understand markets and customers. It’s not enough to have a product or service that beats the competition in quality, innovation, style, or effectiveness. The product or service isn’t really amazing unless it matches – or creates – an opportunity in the marketplace.
That’s why we’ve been looking at many different aspects of market research. This includes understanding a competitive landscape, its specific segments or niches, gaps in the market, differences between regions, and how customers make buying decisions. All this information allows you then to develop a marketing campaign that is truly strategic.
In developing a marketing campaign, you’ll have to compare different channels and agree on your messaging. It’s also critical to set clear measures for success. And campaigns need to be well-organized. So it’s important that everyone is clear on who’s responsible for what and what the next steps are to put the strategy into action.
在今天的对话中, we’ll hear Francine, Lauren, and Josh discuss how to turn the research they analyzed in the previous lesson into a campaign. Francine is an account manager at a marketing agency. She is discussing with her clients, Lauren and Josh, how to use the research to develop a campaign strategy for their company, K&C 安全供应. K&C wants to move into new markets in the Midwest region of the U.S.
