Your credibility is a key factor in the success of your marketing and sales efforts.

Credibility Marketing assumes you already are credible, i.e. relevant, competent, trustworthy, and appreciated.

Empathize with your customers to know what their concerns and objections you may have to deal with.

 

 

   

TRAC of Credibility Marketing

Trustworthy, Relevant, Appreciated, Competent

 

 

 

 

Be Trustworthy

Telling people about your customer focus, passion for customers, or loving customer relationships is not enough to increase your credibility. Tell them the stories of how you managed to build those loving customer relationships and tied them to your customer-focused innovation activities. And most importantly, deliver on your promise.

 

 

 

Be Relevant

Empathize with your prospects, listen to them, and talk about their desires, needs, concerns, and problems. As credibility relies on communication, use content marketing, write and publish content that is relevant to your target audience and uses slang they relate to.

 

Empathy

Amaze Your Audience

Sell Dreams and Emotional Benefits

 

 

 

Be Appreciated

Testimonials do help, but visible real-time appreciation signs work much better. Use social media, blogs and other interactive resources to demonstrate your likeability to a wide audience.
