Catalogue design
Design is constrained by the media that is chosen. Printed material is often the first media that springs to mind when catalogues are being considered – and at one time it was the only medium.

Catalogue design
Some advantages and disadvantages of print-based catalogues
1. High cost and limited circulation 2. Adding items to a catalogue adds
to its costs putting in extra pages increases expenditure for printing, artwork etc, but keeping to a predetermined length may mean something will have to be deleted or have its space reallocated
3. Major changes and new editions of a catalogue are not done frequently
4. A catalogue needs to be sent out and then left with clients for some time before its costs are recovered and profit potential is realized
Disadvantages
5. Clients become used to the catalogue coming out at specific times when best sales results can usually be expected 6. Lead times to get catalogues out are longer than for advertisements or simple mail shots, as a lot more work has to be done on artwork, copy development and layout. Seventh, 7. Putting a new item into the line will usually have to wait until the next catalogue in the marketing schedule is being prepared

Mini – catalogues
Mini – catalogues distributed through targeted alternative channels can generate a large number of new customers in a one – step effort featuring low printing and distribution costs.
The following distribution methods are suitable for mini catalogues, brochures, card packs, or any other information the company wishes to pass on to customers:
-Inserts with billing statements, order acknowledgements and invoices

Grade of paper
Heavier coated paper
- allows much finer detail and colour in the printing process and can help project an upmarket image.
Uncoated paper
- usually looks a bit grey and cannot be used to print really fine detail as the ink may ‘bleed’.
Recycled paper
-can be a bit more expensive but may be a plus if people in the target market are environmentally minded.

Size of paper stock
An oversize catalogue
-offers additional space for layouts and is more difficult for customers to mislay but probably will not fit into bookshelves or filing cabinets

Typeface
Headlines
-done in exotic type styles can contribute to the
overall design theme of the book but should not be

Pictures
It is possible to put together a catalogue using vendor supplied material that can be pasted right into the desktop publishing document.
Unfortunately this can result in a mish mash of different styles and qualities of illustrations that lower the overall tone of the whole publication.
Line drawings are used in many retail flyers. Line illustrations can usually be printed on cheaper stock than high definition photographs, thus keeping costs down.

Spread design
It is worthwhile designing the whole spread of two facing pages rather than single pages
A catalogue is a series of 4-page leaves so you can refresh it and update it easily by putting a different set of wrapping leaves on the outside for mailing purposes.
Many catalogues look like they have been laid out on a grid system with each product being allocated its own little rectangular space comprising a square picture with a square copy block underneath it.

Space allocation
1
Four to eight items per page is a rough average for many catalogues.
2
It can be a good idea to vary the amount and quality of space devoted to products from year to year as this may affect sales.
3
Some items may be featured in the catalogue for public relations purposes to help establish the image you are trying to project.

All customers need to be given reasons why they should buy-no matter whether you are using sales reps, television or catalogue copy as your medium. No one wants to read a page densely packed with incomprehensible technical jargon. Copy that sells is easy to read. The copy should have pictures and copy blocks if the page is at least 45 percent empty space. The more empty space the better. Short sentences are easier to read. So are simple, familiar words. Use short paragraphs with space between them or use indents for paragraphs. Don’t “drown” customers in technical jargon. Paint a mental picture of what the product will do for them using colorful, descriptive language bur don’t be so vague and colloquial that people don’t understand what you mean. Writing should be conversational in tone but specific.

They won’t buy if they don’t read it

- What your products will do for them?
- How the products will solve their problems and make their lives easier.
- Why they should buy from you instead of someone else.

You should: • Appeal to curiosity. • Sell the product line if you have items that competitors don’t. • Sell solutions by pointing out how easily you can solve common annoying problems. • Sell benefits or show how you can help satisfy customer needs. • Sell intangibles like price, convenience, trustworthiness, reputation, fast delivery, friendly sales people, guarantee, service and maintenance. • Stress name, image or reputation like David Jones often does. • Start the catalogue on the cover featuring a popular or hard-to-get item. • Put a friendly, personal letter on the cover. • Add a wrapper to shout a sales message about a new product, deal, location or service improvement.

Summary
Catalogues range from simple monotone efforts to glossy full colour coffee table quality books.
It’s essential that all aspects of the catalogues be checked carefully prior to publication.
Catalogues are still published on paper but many are now being made available on CD-ROM and on the internet.
A well designed cover can enhance the readers’ willingness to look at what the book contains.
Successful modern catalogues provide specific niche markets with well targeted assortments of merchandise and levels of service and expertise not easily available elsewhere.

Weakness of B2B
There are many opportunities for business lists to become out of date.
It limits the opportunities for pre-testing effectiveness of any specific list for ratios of returns.
Many business to business campaigns in direct marketing involving the use of lists go untested.

TO KEEP IN MIND:At the end of the day marketers are still dealing with people.

Definition of lead generationLead generation is the use of a computer program, a database, the Internet, or a specialized service to obtain or receive information for the purpose of expanding the scope of a business, increasing sales revenues, looking for a job or for new clients, or conducting specialized research. Leads can consist of the names and addresses (or e-mail addresses) of individuals, corporations, institutions, or agencies. Lists of leads can be gathered or filtered from targeted databases such as telephone and Internet directories.

Why acquiring new business leads?
Acquiring new customers is a major investment for any organization. Customers come from a base of many prospects. These need to be converted into leads.

How to acquire new business leads?
Apply the Pareto principle (80/20 rule) Approximately 80 per cent of an organization’s business is
yielded by only about 20 per cent of its customers. Therefore it is fairly reasonable to assume that if you can profile
the 20 per cent of its customers. Therefore it is fairly reasonable to assume that if you can profile
the 20 per cent into similar variables, you will arrive at a homogeneous descriptor for the sorts of businesses your organization should be targeting for new business.
Seek out lists of businesses that fit your homogeneous descriptor These may represent a very significant number of businesses,
not all of whom will do business with your organization. These prospects need to be converted into leads and the leads
then qualified.

The criteria of a qualified lead
Definition of qualified lead A potential customer who has expressed interest in
a product or service and meets general buying criteria
They must have a need for what it is your organization is offering.
The person with whom you negotiate must have the authority to purchase.
The organization you are negotiating with must be able to afford what it is your business is offering.

HOW It must be recognized that an organization has
invested time and money into securing each qualified lead.
Keeping track of what has transpired relative to a lead since it was acquired.
• When was action taken to follow up the lead?• What was that action?• What further action was anticipated?• What are the expected outcomes for your organization?

Lead for in-house use
When an organization prospects for leads for its own sales team to follow up, it is relatively easy to keep track of them.
A simple database and accompanying software, together with an on the ball manager of the selling team can maintain a close watch on leads.
From the moment of initial action on a prospect through to generation of a qualified lead, any future requirements, activities or decisions to be made concerning a lead will be recorded and reported.

Leads for reseller agent’s use
WEAKNESS
Leads obtained by the original manufacturer or supplier of goods and services, and passed on to the reselling agents are much harder to control.
It is difficult to motivate and/or control sales team members from an organization other than your own. Particularly this is so when that organization has opportunities to sell products other than yours.
These reseller businesses are independent and make decisions based on their perception of what is good for their business but not necessarily what is good for your brand or your business.

omHow to reform weakness?
The ‘carrot and stick’ approach usually works best. Definition: Carrot and stick is an idiom that
refers to a policy of offering a combination of rewards and punishment to induce behavior.
An incentive to report actions on
qualified leads within specified times to the original supplier of the leads.

Planning and managing lead generation programs
Given that the original supplier of the goods or services for which a program is conducted has the greatest vested interest, it is appropriate for them to control and manage the programs for acquiring leads.

Circumstances for the reseller to control the programs First, it may depend on the magnitude of the reseller’s
investment in the program compared to that of the original supplier’s (of goods or services) investment.
Second, it may be more practical for the resellers of the goods or services when the original supplier is distanced from the locale (and perhaps also the culture) and knowledge of the particular market region.
