7. Market Analysis
- Industry Analysis:
The branding consulting industry has mushroomed in size over
the last five years. Rapid increases and developments in
branding technology have caused the average user to rely on
professionals to handle their naming needs.
Firms in the naming and branding industry provide operating
advice and assistance to businesses and other organizations on
marketing issues, such as developing marketing objectives and
policies, sales forecasting, new product development and
pricing, licensing and franchising planning, and marketing
planning and strategies. While the industry suffered a
temporary setback during the economic downturn in 2014,
marketing consultants have benefited from strong demand for
their services from companies returning to growth after the
recession.
Declines in corporate advertising spending and a dramatic
change in how people consume media have caused the
marketing agencies to suffer over the past five years. However,
revenue has begun to recover and will continue rising over the
next five years as operators adapt to the changing media
environment.
- Competitive Analysis:
Find out who the competitors are by searching online
directories and searching in your sectional Yellow Pages. If there
are a number of competitors in the same industry (meaning
that it is not feasible to describe each one) then showcase the
number of businesses that compete with you, and why your
business will provide customers with campaign naming that are
of better quality or less expensive than the competition.

- The website will be the key to the business. It must be well designed,
user-friendly and fully operational at all times. The website will serve
both business owners and consumers, so the design must be done by
a hired professional with experience with these sites.
Website Marketing Strategy
- The website address can be included a variety of printed marketing
materials, including business cards and informational brochures.
- The website can feature testimonials of how the company exceeded
the expectations of clients by providing care and premier services.
- Customer Testimonials:
Posting customer testimonials regarding positive services will
be an excellent marketing tool. These testimonials can be
placed on the Website where they can be viewed by potential
customers.
- Create a solid About us Page:
Typically, one of the top 10 most popular pages of any Website
is the About us page. It provides a personalized glimpse of the
company and its owner. It is a very effective tool because
people are simply curious. They want to know who is behind the
company. More often than not, a potential client will select a
company with a real person behind it, rather than a faceless
company that does not provide even a little of personal
information.
20 | P a g e

- Public Relations:
Create an extensive list of media contacts to email press
releases Both locally and nationally.
Work to create relationships with clients in the area.
Create an extensive calendar of events in all the community.
Create monthly to quarterly press releases highlighting the
events that have the largest client potential.
- Social Media:
(1) Twitter:
I believe Twitter offers the fastest way to build an audience of
relevant followers for your content. The primary reason is
because you have an opportunity to interact and engage with
21 | P a g e
the right people for your business even if they dont follow you
back (you cant do this on Facebook or LinkedIn)
Post pertinent content three to five times per week based on
the strategy and goals, re-tweet its followers tweets when they
use the new # tag
If you have a company blog as a part of your SEO strategies, the
best way to promote it is through Twitter. If you feel that the
information provided in the blog would be appreciated by your
followers, just tweet the link to share the blog. This not only
diverts traffic to your blog, but also makes your message viral if
your customers find the content useful.
(2) Instagram:
Post significant content three to five times per week based on
the strategy and goals.
Focus on photography that is already taken.
Search the clients and groups that TagLTE is targeting to follow,
encouraging followers to try the naming features offered.
(3) Facebook:
Post three to five times per week based on the strategy and
goals, intermingled with fun posts designed to engage the
followers.
Allow the users to engage instantly with the company by
posting naming agency likes, dislikes, and ideas, which can be
answered directly by the management and support team
Clients will be invited to become fans of the page in order to
receive emails via FACEBOOK and additional updates.
Discussion topics will be posted by the management about new
product naming features.

(4) Pinterest:
According to a recent report done by Hubspot, Pinterest is
driving more traffic to the Real Simple website than Facebook
Create boards based on communities, areas, and attractions.
Traffic isnt the only benefit Pinterest can bring to your
business. The site is also a great source of consumer insights. A
quick keyword search can tell you what your audience is
discussing and sharing.
A growing number of HR departments use Pinterest to recruit
top talent. After all, its a great place to connect with people
over shared interests.
