Everyone knows that in order for a seed to grow it needs nourishment and light. The same goes for business. Leads need to be nurtured and cared for in order to transform into sales. While a lead can't flourish without the right attention, growing your business doesn't have to mean big budgets and time investments. Even the smallest investment can yield big results down the road.

Lead Generation and Lead Nurturing are just two of the top ways you can begin to grow your business. Don't miss out on an opportunity to grow and flourish your business! Check out our video to learn more.

How to go-to-market as an IT firm in 2009

Share on Twitter Twitter | Submit to Digg digg it |  Add to delicious  delicious |  Submit to StumbleUpon StumbleUpon |  Share on LinkedIn LinkedIn | Submit to Reddit reddit 

With the economy in it's current state, it is no question that many industries are being affected more so than others. For technology companies, the hit has not been as hard, yet companies are now being asked to scale back on new purchases and CIO's across this nation are beginning to re-organize their departments. So what does this mean for an IT company who is looking to sell their software/hardware?

Earlier this year we asked "What impact will the current economic crisis have on IT budgets" and more importantly, who you thought would benefit the most. Here are the results:

  1. Software Providers - 15%
  2. SaaS - 31%
  3. ERP Services - 8% 
  4. Outsourcing - 38%
  5. Offshoring - 8%
Based on this pole, you believe that outsourcing will benefit most from the current economic crisis. Other research points towards similar numbers as well. The important hting to note here is that there still is a wide variety of different IT companies who can benefit during the economic crisis and while some may benefit more than others, all can benefit it they play their cards right. Because of this, there are some important factors that should be taken into account when going to market during this recession. 
  • Know how you can save your customer time and money - There is a very strong renewed focus on measuring cost and how cost will affect the current IT budget within organizations. If your product does not have a strong argument for cost savings, you will most likely be pushed to the sidelines. When going into any marketing or sales pitch, be sure you know your customer and how you will help them save!
  • Know your target audience - With the state of the economy, more organizations have restructured so that the CIO and CFO are more aligned. As IT is one of the largest expenses in an organization, the CCFO is now looking to the CIO to find ways to cut costs and save more money. Furthermore, if the CIO is able to make a strong argument for certain solutions saving money, a purchase could potentially be made. Therefore, make sure you message speaks to both IT AND Finance. 
Follow these two rules and marketing for technology in 2009 can still present success!
