When your company offers only services, you have nothing real to show for it. Haven't you heard that enough? If your company is doing its job right, you have satisfied clients that are as real as it gets. Your business is all about relationships, expertise, value and professionalism. Really.
While you have no wireless gadget to wow or nifty software to demonstrate, you have a process, background, experience and set of talents like no other. While you try to convince prospects in the traditional manner your competition is doing the same thing. So it becomes a race to out-advertise and out-market the other guys. And every day that you're writing copy or wringing out deals and waiting for traditional media and marketing channels is another day you're not dedicated to providing service to your client. Is that your pain?
The service sector, as much as any other, has begun to discover and exploit the power of video messaging through podcasting. Rather than casting news and mar-com into the winds of fate with only hopes for them to land on fertile ground, clever businesses are directing their messages straight to clients, prospective clients and anyone who needs it. And without the cost of media. Those same clever clients are riding the swelling wave of podcast popularity and targeting those jaded by old media as well as the new media savvy client.
The National Podcasting System is helping to make it happen. Ask us how we can help you keep it real.
"Podcasting is still unique enough in many industries that it can allow you to stand out..."
