The Benefits
As a marketer, you face challenges:
- Getting through to consumers who are bombarded with more than 3,000 media messages daily
- Innovations such as DVR technology, anti-spam software and do-not-call legislation that build barriers between you and your customer
- Consumer distrust of corporate messages
- Desensitization to traditional incentives
- Media fragmentation
Starmark Custom Publishing develops customized media programs that offer a way to still make a powerful impression, despite this fragmentation.
Starmark Custom Publishing has the solution:
A custom media program can provide you with the ability to control your message and target your audience with content that appeals directly to their interests and concerns. And what's even more rewarding is the accountability that this measurable and targeted communication delivers to clients who want to ensure their marketing dollars make an impact.
Enhancing Brand Awareness
For many companies, it's a major task to educate prospects, and even existing customers, about the many facets of their brand. A customized media program that includes a customer magazine positions you as an authority in your segment. It creates awareness of your philosophy and offerings not only to your consumers, but to your competitors as well.
Providing Measurable Results
One of the most appealing aspects of a customized media program is the measurable and trackable data that results from built-in customer response mechanisms. Obviously, the two strongest benefits of custom programs, brand awareness and customer loyalty, are slightly harder to quantify. However, the tools that we set in place to measure audience feedback have proven to be successful. Once you are armed with this new knowledge about your audience, your future media and sales programs can be that much more effective.
Making Your Voice Heard
It's not always easy to ensure that your customers are hearing what you would like them to know about your company. And it's even harder to keep them from hearing cluttered or mixed messages from other sources. That's why customized media programs have become so popular among corporations.
The average reader spends 47 minutes with a magazine.
Just imagine if that magazine was filled with articles and news that communicated your vision and enhanced your brand. At MARC USA Custom Publishing we customize content for magazines, newsletters and webzines that clearly expresses your message and achieves your specific goals.
Fostering Loyalty
According to a survey by Applied Research and Consulting, magazines deliver attributes that customers want most in a brand, including trustworthiness and personalized attention. By customizing the content of your media, you are connecting with your customers. You are letting them know that you understand their needs, you're familiar with what's important to them and you're committed to giving them the very best. Customized content enhances your relationship with consumers and promotes their loyalty to your company.
