A New York Times Best selling Author/Speaker once told me to lose the first two slides of my talk

because no one really cares “About Me”

Page 3: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

3  

…and I sorta agree but it does make slide three harder to understand…

Page 4: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

4  

….and that is why I LOVE women!

Page 5: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

5  

Especially from Maine!

Page 6: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Page 7: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

7  7  

So why am I here today?

Page 8: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

8  8  

To explain why I am awesome…

Page 9: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

9  9  

…and how to market creatively.

Page 10: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

10  

But First…Lesson learned from Dick Shawn.

10  

Page 11: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt
Page 12: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

12  12  

OK.

Page 13: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

13  13  

So how do most people Market stuff nowadays?

Page 14: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

14  14  

Page 15: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

15  15  

Page 16: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

16  16  

Page 17: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

17  17  

..and these all work.

Page 18: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

18  18  

…but they aren’t sexy or interesting.

Page 19: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

19  19  

Page 20: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

20  20  

Page 21: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

21  21  

..again…

Page 22: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

22  22  

Page 23: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

23  23  

Page 24: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

24  24  

Not Sexy is important but it isn’t the whole

picture.

Page 25: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

25  25  

..and it doesn’t start conversations

or build fans.

Page 26: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

26  26  

So for now, please forget everything you think you know about Marketing.

Page 27: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

27  27  

Because if you learned Marketing from someone other then me you would

be taught:

Page 28: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

B2B marketing is about the product and it’s features.

28  

Page 29: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

B2C marketing is about the user and the emotion the

product will illicit.

29  

Page 30: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

That may have been true at one time but not anymore!

30  

Page 31: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

31  

Page 32: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Marketing Creatively is about the product and the emotional response to it’s features.

32  

Page 33: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

33  33  

Page 34: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

34  34  

Page 35: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

35  35  

Marketing needs to become more like advertising because people

(in general) have short attention spans and

crave entertainment.

Page 36: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

36  36  

Page 37: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

37  37  

Call your Cable Company and say I WANT MY MTV!

Page 38: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

38  

Was that Advertising or Marketing?

Page 39: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

39  

Was that Advertising or Marketing?

I would say both.

Page 40: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

40  

One of the reasons things have changed is…

Page 41: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Customer expectation around everything from product design

to customer service has changed and this includes how

they expect to be communicated to.

41  

Page 42: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

42  

People want to be spoken to as humans and even included in the design and development process because if the communication is

done well and there is a connection then the customer will feel like this Product is for them…and just them.

Page 43: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

43  43  

To achieve this you need to go no further then Pat Benatar.

Page 44: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

44  44  

Pat Benatar told Millions of people

that Love is a Battlefield and You Belong to the Night. But she also told use

to…

Page 45: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

45  45  

“Stop using Sex as a Weapon” but she never said not to

Use “Creativity as A weapon”

(yes I know that was a stretch but I really like PB and

wanted to add her in here!)

Page 46: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

The weapons of creativity go into the product and the

packaging (if there is any) and this is why it is so important that Marketing departments

and product teams work together from the beginning…

46  

Page 47: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

47  47  

..and tell the same story.

Page 48: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

48  

Page 49: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

49  

This man taught

me a whole lot

of what I know today.

On thing he used

to say all the time

was….

Page 50: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

50  

“People don’t like to be marketed to but they sure like to buy stuff.”

Page 51: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

51  

So lets stop marketing to them!

Page 52: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Everyone (and by everyone I mean people with book deals) will tell you that the secret to this is to Listen and Engage...

52  

Page 53: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Listen and Engage...

53  

Page 54: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Listen and Engage...

54  

Page 55: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Listen and Engage...

55  

Page 56: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

56  56  

Page 57: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

57  

Engagement isn’t for everyone.

Page 58: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Marketing Creatively is less about Engagement and more

about the other “E” word.

58  

Page 59: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

59  

Page 60: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

60  60  

Page 61: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

61  

You can’t make this “ask” unless you know your customers.

Page 62: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

62  

…and this is why you do Social Media…

Page 63: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

The more connected you are with your customers the better you will know what they want…but even more important then

that is…

63  

Page 64: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

64  64  

the more you know your customers, the more you will try

to not disappoint them.

Page 65: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

65  65  

To get people to talk about your company or product/service you need to do two

things…

Page 66: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

66  66  

1.People need to see themselves in your brand so you need to open up to them and the idea.

Page 67: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

67  67  

Live the life of your

customers

Fight for what the

care about

and be an advocate for their

voice..

Page 68: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

68  68  

2- Do interesting things.

So they want to live your brand

Page 69: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

69  69  

2- Then…do more interesting things.  

It’s cool cause it folds!

Page 70: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

70  

SO where do you go to execute on all this new

knowledge? (that I am only at best

Half finished explaining)?

Page 71: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Page 72: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

72  72  

Page 73: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Page 75: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Page 76: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Page 77: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

77  

Page 78: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

78  

Page 79: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

79  79  

Ok.  Back  to…  

Page 80: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

80  80  

It isn’t the Holy Grail anymore.

Page 81: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

81  81  

Page 82: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

82  82  

Page 83: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

83  83  

So where should you go?

Page 84: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

84  84  

..but you should!

Page 85: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

85  85  

Find the true niche sites that your customers are participating In. These could be: • Associations and Trade sites • Community Sites • Online Forums

Page 86: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

86  86  

Because everything you do starting now should be about, and include your customers.

Page 87: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

87  87  

Remember that ”Do interesting things” slide?.

Page 88: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

88  88  

By promoting your customers you are forming a real connection and with that connection you will empower your customers to talk about your company and indirectly you have

a highly passionate sales force!

Page 89: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

89  89  

Anyone Remember Stingray?

Page 90: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

90  90  

Do favors for Customers, Partners, Friends and never stop networking...so you can call in

favors to save the day!

We are living in a Favor Based Economy

Page 91: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

91  91  

 ”There is no reason to have a network if you are not

using it.”

Page 92: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

92  92  

 ”There is no reason to have a network if you are not

using it.”

-Saul Colt (about a minute ago)

Page 93: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

93  93  

Page 94: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

94  94  

Page 95: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

95  95  

I want to see the term Transparency be replaced with….

Page 96: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

96  96  

It should be less about being “Internet Famous” and more

about getting stuff done because if you are living in the Back Channel and having your

customers do most of your promotion then it will be less about bragging and leave you

with more time to focus on creating Word of Mouth

opportunities.

Page 97: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Quick ways to start WOM conversations!

97  

• Force people to ask questions? • Make them scratch their heads! • Try 100 things! • Its ok if no one shows up!

Page 98: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

These types of activities will help build your brand and when it is all said and done your brand is the only thing

a competitor can’t steal!

98  

Page 99: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

Because marketing really has changed and if you think it is only about

squeezing another 1/8th of 1% to your Customer

Acquisition numbers then you’re missing the point.

99

So…in closing.

Page 101: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

If you remember nothing else from this talk I ask you

to remember these three things.

The “4 E’s”

103  

• Execute

• Extraordinary

• Experiences

• Everyday

Page 104: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt
Page 105: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

…and what exactly am I calling this new way to market to

people?

Page 106: Marketing Creatively - Saul Colt

The Aristocrats!
