  • "We get beat up on price because we have no credibility with prospects who've never heard of us before"
  • "My team constantly asks for new brochures, collateral materials and infokits but nothing seems to help"
  • "How do I know which business development strategies and tools will help us attract the right kinds of clients?"
  • "We never know where our next qualified prospect is coming from. There has to be a more systematic way we can market our products/ services"
  • "There are so many new ways to reach clients these days; should we be using social media, email marketing, seminars, blogs, video? And do any of those even work in our industry?"
  • "We're dealing with a lot of look-alike competitors - and our prospects can't tell the difference between our expertise and theirs."
  • "I'm tired of being the best kept secret in our industry or profession"
  • "I'm frustrated when I see other professionals and newer firms who offer the same services we do - not half as well - getting a lot more work"

Direct quote from a Fortune 500 executive on how he wants to BUY your services:

professional services marketing firm marketing for consultants"Please understand that I get dozens of these types of sales messages a week. I simply do not have time to read them, dig into them, follow up on them, or reply to them. The most effective solution to this problem is for me to ignore the messages, which is what I usually do...

Finally, a small comment. As a customer, I find this type of approach to sales to be largely annoying to me and unproductive for you. We learn far more about what we want to purchase by searching the web, looking for customer references in blogs and forums, word of mouth, and by finding white papers on your site that concretely describe solutions to problems we are having."

-- CIO of Fortune 500 Pharma Company

What Works Today: Get THEM to Call YOU!

What is Trusted Advisor Marketing? It goes by several other names including inbound marketing, thought leadership marketing and content marketing. In all cases, it is marketing focused on getting found by clients.  

Instead of driving your sales messages into a crowd of strangers over and over again like a sledgehammer, you attract highly qualified clients to your business like a magnet. Let’s take this down to a very practical level…

Answer: Most professional services firms (accounting, consulting, technology, engineering, financial services) believe it's the latter.

Think about it: When buyers call YOU and they've read your content, they see you as a thought-leader, and they've already decided YOU have the answers they need, you usually close between 80-90% of those opportunities, don't you?

What you need are more conversations like THAT -- and that's precisely where we can help.
