B2B Marketing Playbook: Differentiate Your Brand and Deliver Consistent Customer Experiences (501) (Half Day)

B2B Marketing Mastery Program 501
(Half Day Workshop)

Workshop Description
A clear, consistent message is one key to delivering a superior customer experience, McKinsey found. Yet many brands struggle to deliver one consistent message, speak in a consistent brand voice, and deliver a distinct, positive experience that wins customers’ loyalty.

This workshop will show you key strategies to position your brand for competitive advantage by striking the right balance between branding and other marketing plays.

  • Differentiate your brand from competitors –Understand your buyers’ and customers’ needs, audit brand touchpoints, assess competitors’ positions, and develop a unique brand position that sets you apart from competitors.
  • Deliver consistent end-to-end customer experiences – The ideal customer experience begins with a message that sets clear expectations, a series of brand touchpoints that woo the customer, and competent execution that delivers what customers expect by minimizing friction and eliminating inconsistencies.
