To say we live in changing times is an understatement. Each new day brings its own uniqueness. what used to be hot yesterday is no longer so. Marketing strategy of last century may no longer be tenable. What we have noticed is that some still want to stick to the old way of doing things.Today, marketing trends are going the way of conversation and engagement. The old four Ps are obsolete.It is now mandatory for marketer that will command respect to understand what it takes to play in the game of marketing today. So for any marketer who want to know the way out or where the ball is going, I think Chad levi’s advice could do. while Chad did concentrate on the effect of the followings on personal branding, I do think brand marketers can also learn from the following strategies.
Producers: a marketer that will apply this strategy must be ready to create, develop and supply contents in any formats that will work for his audience. These contents can be in form of text(blog), podcast, videoblog etc. the aim of producing these contents is basically to help audience get better understanding of his products. Even before the product is out a producers can co create a product with his audience. With this strategy, it is easier for the product or services in question to enjoy word of mouth marketing as soon as it comes to the marketing. The snag here is that this strategy requires hard work of finding out as well as giving out without measure relevant material that will enhance audience perception of the product ands services.
Commentator: This strategy can also be used as another form of marketing of gaining eyeball, visibility and understanding. For a commentator strategy to work, marketer must be on the look out and monitor trends both online and offline and be ready to comment positively and meanigfully to discussions around his services or products.
Gatherer: This strategy works as the marketers decide to gather as much informed opinion around his services, products or trends that will allow the making of informed decisions about best practices and what we will.
Joiner: this marketing strategy today is assocaited with marketer who just want to join relevant community and possibly become part of it. many often remain inactive but being active positions individual than otherwise.
Observer: observer strategy may or may not work depend on how the strategist goes by it. Most observer’s strategy is to maintain a sit down and look for ages. When this becomes a permanent approach it does not produce much result.
Having said these what are your marketing strategies? Do you think the above will work today? Let me hear from you.

When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get three emails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove me from that service? Thanks!

TYVM, great job! Exactly the information I needed.
Yes you learn more while you share your knowledge with others. . . . . .
You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
Wow, there exists really so much to understand available and one can get overwhelmed but once you know where to focus, it can be really all worth your time. Enjoyed your posting!
