YOUTILITY

Why Smart Marketing Is About Help, Not Hype

The difference between helping and selling is just two letters. But those two letters are critically important to your company’s success.

You’re not competing for attention only against other, similar products. You’re competing for attention against everything. To win in this hyper-competitive environment, you must ask “How can we help?”

If you sell something, you make a customer today, but if you genuinely help someone, you create a customer for life. This is Youtility.

badge image of the week Land Rover USA Gets FerociousThis post is a reminder that brands should be a little more ferocious in their content strategy. If you focus on capturing stunning, yet powerful visual imagery, don’t ruin the impact of the photo with a lengthy caption. Simply let the photo speak for itself with a clever, brief caption that aligns with the product you’re selling like Land Rover did here with, “FEROCIOUS. And fearless.” The image is highly stylized, which speaks to the quality and luxury of the car, but the copy showcases that this high-end vehicle has the heart and prowess of a tiger. For more inspiring examples of simple, yet moving content, visit Land Rover USA’s Tumblr page: http://tumblr.landroverusa.com.

    Thanks for that. It might have been more fun to use tge photo as a caption contest. Then get fans to vote on the best. Doesn’t have to be the one that is eventually chosen but a great piece of engagement nevertheless.
