How to make your product stand out in a crowd: selling products, services and your company’s image.
- The Homeopathic market place is estimated to have have reached $1 billion in sales in 2011 and is still growing!
- Annual growth has been estimated at between 3 and 5%.
- Branding your company, products and services to differentiate you from the crowd while accelerating your growth is now more important than ever.
Homeopathic companies and products must work harder than ever before to stand out in today’s crowded marketplace of natural and OTC drug products. Reaching the consumer with your message, image and benefits through the multitude of competing products and messages is tough to accomplish. Consumers are seeking solutions and at the same time are rushed and pressured and faced with a multitude of competing messages. Your brand’s image and message must be on target to capture their attention, help them relate to your product and make them your customer.
Every Company, every brand and every product competes for store placement, shelf space, advertizing space and retailer and consumer attention. Gone are the days of using trade show booths, shelf talkers and magazine ads to reach retailers and consumers. Today’s market is one of diverse communication channels and all of these channels can lead to consumers, sales and growth. Reaching out through established and new media channels still requires that the basics of good branding are accomplished with the added challenge of embracing greater consumer interaction through websites and new and interactive media.
