Posted by | Blog | No Comments

A quick overview of why web marketing is critical for promoting technology products, for both B2C and B2B products and across all industry sectors. 24 hours a day, some of your potential customers will be looking online for your type of product or service. If they don’t find you they’ll find a competitor.

How to Select a Target Market for New Product Launch

Posted by | Blog | No Comments

We work with a lot of technology start-ups.  Pretty often these start-ups are looking at launching a new product into a new market – one in which they don’t have previous experience of selling their technology.  Sometimes it is not obvious which market to go for first, particularly if the product can potentially be used in a number of sectors.

So, we usually have these questions to answer:

  • Why can’t I market the product to all potential buyers?
  • Which market should I choose first?
  • How do I promote my product in that market?

In this post we look at why you should pick a first target sector, how you pick that sector, and then how you can promote your product.  We’ll be using some ideas from the technology marketing classic “Crossing the Chasm” and combining them with digital marketing tools to quickly identify the sectors with the best fit.

Posted by | Blog | No Comments

We have been asked to provide book recommendations a few times in the past couple of months, so I thought it would make a good blog post.  Here are is an initial list of books I think are useful relating to digital marketing, startups and technology. I have tried to structure the list into groups but  I think they’re all pretty good.

In addition to the recommendations below you should also have a look at this list of recommended reading from Harvard’s “Launching Technology Ventures” course, part of their MBA course — this has a great list of online resources, on topics ranging from business development through to hiring talent for start-ups.   And Hacker News has agreat book list here – lots of tech books but also a lot of more general business and marketing books too. If you know of any other good lists please let us know.
