7 Ways To Grow Your Commercial Lighting Business

 

Here are 7 time-tested approaches to growing a commercial lighting business:

  1. Create a go-to-market plan to add a new product category, service, or to expand into a new channel of distribution.
  2. Try lead generation (lead gen) using digital automation.
  3. Produce a monthly press release and distribute it to your primary customer trade press.
  4. Produce a monthly email newsletter with valuable content, to your existing customers and prospects, or another type of direct email marketing campaign.
  5. Create a disciplined, actionable plan for customer prospecting and contact list building.
  6. Continuously improve your website, sales collateral, spec sheets, and other technical marketing materials. Don’t get complacent!
  7. Create a thought leadership strategy that can include activities such as: submitting call-for-speaker abstracts, publishing white papers of high value to your primary customer, applying for relevant industry awards, have your CEO and/or sales leader volunteer for highly visible roles in customer associations, and author high value trade press articles to your primary customer.
