Core Principles of the Duct Tape Marketing System

Here are the universal, core principles used with every business owner:

  • Strategy before tactics
    Determine a marketing strategy and build your marketing activities around delivering on the strategy.
  • Narrow market focus
    Stop trying to be all things to a very large market.  Concentrate your marketing efforts on a small, niche market and become the dominate player.
  • Differentiate or compete on price
    Find and communicate a hook that allows your prospects to easily see how your firm is different from everyone else in the industry and price comparisons go out the door.
  • Marketing materials should educate
    No one likes to be sold to.  Create brochures, websites, and other forms of communications that allow your prospects to really experience your expertise.
  • Advertising is a 2-step process
    Let your prospects get to know you through advertising that invites them in for a gift, free analysis, and useful information. 
  • Embrace technology and the Internet
    The Internet provides your small business with a powerful way to automatically find, connect, and serve your clients and prospects.
  • Live by a marketing calendar
    The best way to move your marketing forward as you run your business is to create a calendar and schedule marketing activities every single day.
