Understanding the PESO Model to Support Your Small Business

3/23/2023

 
​The PESO model is a framework used in public relations and marketing to categorize different types of media and communication channels. The acronym stands for:

●      Paid media: This includes any type of advertising that a company pays for, such as display ads, paid search ads, social media ads, and sponsored content. Paid media is typically used to promote products, services, or events, and is often designed to reach a wider audience than other forms of media.
●      Earned media: This refers to the publicity that a company or brand has earned through editorial coverage, news stories, reviews, social media mentions, and other types of non-paid media. Earned media is typically seen as more credible than paid media since it is not controlled by the company or brand.
●      Shared media: This includes social media platforms, blogs, and other online communities where people share content with each other. Shared media can be a powerful tool for companies to engage with their audience, build relationships, and encourage user-generated content.
●      Owned media: This refers to any content that a company or brand creates and controls, such as its website, blog, email newsletters, and other marketing materials. Owned media is important for establishing a brand's identity and providing information to customers, and can also be used to drive traffic to other types of media.
Picture
By understanding the different types of media and how they can be used together, companies can create more effective marketing and public relations campaigns. The PESO model can help them decide which types of media to focus on, and how to integrate them into a comprehensive strategy.
Picture
​How the PESO Model Can Support Your Small Business
 
The PESO model is important for small businesses because it provides a framework for creating an effective and comprehensive marketing and public relations strategy.
Here are some reasons why the PESO model is particularly useful for small businesses:
  1. Helps to maximize resources: Small businesses often have limited resources, both in terms of time and money. By understanding the different types of media available through the PESO model, small businesses can determine which channels will be most effective for reaching their target audience and allocate their resources accordingly.
  2. Provides a holistic approach: The PESO model takes into account all four types of media - paid, earned, shared, and owned - and encourages businesses to use them in an integrated and strategic way. This helps to ensure that all marketing and PR efforts are aligned and working together towards a common goal.
  3. Increases visibility and credibility: By using a combination of paid, earned, shared, and owned media, small businesses can increase their visibility and credibility with their target audience. Earned media, in particular, can help to build trust and credibility with customers, as it is seen as more trustworthy than paid media.
  4. Facilitates measurement and evaluation: The PESO model provides a framework for measuring the effectiveness of different media channels and evaluating the success of a marketing and PR strategy. This allows small businesses to track their progress, identify areas for improvement, and adjust their strategy as needed.

Overall, the PESO model is a valuable tool for small businesses looking to create a comprehensive and effective marketing and public relations strategy. By understanding the different types of media available and how they can be used together, small businesses can maximize their resources, increase their visibility and credibility, and achieve their marketing and PR goals.

The Importance of Employee Appreciation Programs- and Some Ideas You Can Use

3/22/2023

 
​Employee appreciation programs are important for a business’s success because they can help create a positive work environment, boost employee morale and motivation, and ultimately increase productivity and retention rates.
Picture
Companies that provide quality and worthy employee appreciation programs have the advantage of finding and keeping talent over those that overlook this important part of healthy company culture. These advantages come in the form of:
  1. Improved employee morale: When employees feel appreciated and recognized for their hard work, they are more likely to have a positive attitude toward their job and the company they work for. This can lead to a more enjoyable work environment for everyone.
  2. Increased motivation: Recognizing and appreciating employees can also boost their motivation and encourage them to continue working hard. This can lead to increased productivity, better performance, and improved job satisfaction.
  3. Higher retention rates: Employee appreciation programs can also help reduce turnover rates by showing employees that their hard work and contributions are valued. This helps a stronger commitment to the company to grow!
  4. Enhanced employer brand: A company that values and appreciates its employees is likely to have a stronger employer brand. This ultimately helps to attract top talent and improve the company’s reputation both within and outside of the industry.
 
What can you do to ensure that your employees are happy and feel appreciated?
 
While there are many traditional ways to show employees appreciation, the changing work scape has inspired many companies to come up with more effective and creative nontraditional employee appreciation methods.
 

Picture
Here is some creative inspiration for nontraditional appreciation ideas:

  1. Offering flexible work arrangements: Flexible work arrangements, such as telecommuting or flexible scheduling can be a great way to show employees that you trust and value them.
  2. Providing opportunities for growth and development: When employees receive opportunities to learn new skills and grow within their roles or the company, they feel supported and appreciated. Consider implementing training programs, mentorships, and opportunities to take on new responsibilities.
  3. Company Wellness Programs: Offering wellness programs, such as gym memberships, meditation classes, or healthy snacks in the office, can show employees that you care about their well-being and want to support their health.
  4. Customized and personal recognition: Personalizing recognition can make employees feel even more valued! For example, you could give them a gift that supports their interests or hobbies. You could also create a custom thank-you note that highlights specific contributions they have made to the company.
  5. Encouraging employee-led initiatives: Allowing employees to lead initiatives, such as organizing charity drives, can be a great way to show that you trust and value their leadership skills.
  6. Offering time off: Giving employees time off, whether it’s a bonus day off or an extended holiday break, can be a great way to show appreciation and give them a chance to recharge!
Picture
By thinking creatively and finding ways to show appreciation that goes beyond the traditional gift card or bonus, companies can create a culture of appreciation and recognition that will benefit both employees and the company as a whole.

7 Reasons Employee Happiness Matters for Business

3/16/2023

 
​As a business owner, you probably (hopefully) want to see your employees happy. But did you know employee happiness matters for your business’s bottom line, too? Joy is part of all aspects of our work at MBD Marketing & Events. Here are seven reasons employee satisfaction is crucial for business success.
Picture
​Happy employees are more productive
 
Happy employees are 12% more productive than their dissatisfied counterparts (Snacknation). Happiness is an invigorating, motivating emotion. In fact, employee satisfaction has a greater impact on performance than financial incentives. In fact, nine out of 10 employees would trade a percentage of their salary for “meaningful work” and positive company culture (Harvard Business Review).
 
Research shows that people who are happy at work are more collaborative, more creative, and better at problem-solving. (Sound like a team you know?) Coworkers who are happy in the workplace and who get along well are more likely to work effectively to achieve common goals.

 
Greater happiness = greater sales
 
Like with productivity, greater happiness translates to greater sales - by 37% (Gallup). Not only have we determined that engaged employees are more productive, but that positive attitude resonates with customers. Potential customers or clients are much more likely to commit when interacting with upbeat salespeople.
 

Companies with happy employees outperform their competition
 
Not surprisingly, companies with happy employees, better productivity, and greater sales outperform their competition in all areas. Fortune’s “100 Best Companies to Work For” enjoyed a raise in stock prices of 14% per year from 1998-2005, compared to 6% for the overall market (Forbes).
 
Positive workplace culture creates a beneficial snowball effect by creating happier employees who in turn contribute to a better workplace climate. The Harvard Business Review notes, “Decades of data have confirmed that higher employee engagement, or the strength of the mental and emotional connection an employee feels toward their workplace, has many positive benefits — including reduced stress, improved health and job satisfaction, as well as increased productivity, job retention, and profitability.”
​
 
Engaged workers are less likely to look for new employment
 
Happy employees want to stay with their companies. Losing an employee costs a company 1.5 to two times that employee’s salary (BuiltIn) and leads to decreased productivity and decreased employee morale.
 
In addition, happy employees attract top talent. The most in-demand employees in any field have their pick of companies to work for, and company culture is the top priority for most workers. High-quality employees attract other high-quality workers.
Picture
Happy workers have fewer accidents
 
Satisfied employees produce better quality products and services and have 50% fewer workplace accidents (Lorman). Happiness leads to higher engagement, which leads to greater focus and motivation, and in turn, fewer mistakes at work. Employees who are worried, stressed, or distracted at work are at the highest risk for quality and safety mishaps.
 

Happy employees take fewer sick days
 
Sick days are a business expense, and employees who report being happy at work take 10 times fewer than average (iSmartRecruit). The Integrated Benefits Institute found in 2019 that sick days cost employers an average of $3,900 per employee in lost productivity. When unhappiness in the workplace increases, so do sick days.
 
​
What happens when employees are unhappy at work?
 
A 2013 State of the American Workplace Report estimated that actively disengaged workers cost the U.S. $450-550 billion per year (CBS News). Here are some other alarming statistics about employees who are unhappy at work:

  • Only 25% of employees who quit their jobs cite money as the main reason for leaving. (Source)
  • Only 13% of employees are engaged at work. (Source)
  • A 2013 Gallup study found that only 30 percent of American employees felt occupied or enthused by their jobs, while the other 70 percent were not utilizing their full potential. (Source)
  • Only 42% of employees are happy with the rewards and recognition offered by their companies. (Source)
  • 57% of remote workers are satisfied with their job; only 50% of in-office employees agree. (Source)

Tips for Your Company Rebrand

2/24/2023

 
​There may come a time in the life of your business when you need to rebrand. Maybe you’re entering a new market, repositioning your brand to appeal to a new customer, or your vision for your business has changed – follow these tips for your company rebrand.
 
Keep in mind that rebranding carries risks. Proceed carefully to avoid alienating your current customers, incorporating short-term trends at the expense of long-term business, and losing brand recognition. Feeling overwhelmed already? Consult the MBD Marketing & Events team for your small business marketing needs.
Picture
​Do it for the right reasons
 
We’ve already listed some of the right reasons to rebrand. Ultimately, if your brand values, business offerings, or target market have changed, a rebrand is appropriate. We don’t recommend rebranding to appeal to short-term trends in your industry, to “shake things up,” or to cover up a brand crisis.
 
Reevaluate your brand’s identity
 
If your brand’s identity has changed – if you are offering significantly different products or services than you did in the past and/or looking for a new type of customer – don’t jump into a rebrand. Redefining your brand’s identity takes consideration, time, and careful planning behind the scenes. This means revisiting your brand’s vision, mission, and values.
 
Think about what your company does and why. Brand mission encompasses how your company plans to achieve its goals. How is your company providing the best version of the product or service you’re offering? What makes your brand unique compared with competitors?
 
You should be able to answer all of these questions, and have a plan for updating your digital and print business materials accordingly, before making your rebrand public. Read more about brand vision, mission, and values on our blog: Let’s Talk About VALUES.
 
Rename – carefully
 
A new identity can mean your brand has outgrown its name. A name change is a big undertaking which affects brand recognition and website search traffic. You can have a successful rebrand without a name change, but if your company name no longer reflects your business offerings, renaming is a smart move.
 
A new name should reflect your company’s identity and support your mission, not just sound good. Your goal should be to select a name that best reflects your identity now and in the future, so you won’t need to rename again. A new slogan and new visuals should accompany your new brand name.
 
Picture
​Create a new look
 
There are lots of elements to consider in creating a new look for your brand. Fonts, colors, logos, website and advertisement imagery, email templates, business cards, all need to have a comprehensive look that reflects your brand identity.
 
Frequent color and logo changes will give your customers whiplash, so choose designs that will stand the test of time with minimal adjustments. Besides your company’s name, these visuals are the most important element of brand recognition. Establish brand guidelines (instructions for use of your logo, fonts, and colors) to maintain consistency.
 
Get feedback
 
It is important to check in with your existing customers during a rebrand. Welcome feedback, and be ready for questions and concerns – even better, try to anticipate questions and concerns so you can address them in your rebranding communications.
 
Interactive platforms like social media give you the opportunity to track customers’ feelings about brand changes. Existing customers must understand the reasons for your rebrand. Reassurance and clarity are necessary for customers to buy into your new brand.
 
Publicize your rebrand
 
While you want to prepare your existing customers for a rebrand, you should be proud of – and celebrate – your business’s growth. Talk about your rebrand, transparently, as publicly as possible. Social media and press releases are excellent avenues for communicating your rebrand to current and prospective clients.
 
To create more excitement (and potential new business), consider creating advertisements and/or hosting an open house or launch party to introduce your new brand.

How to Host a Ribbon Cutting for Your New Business

1/21/2023

 
Congratulations, new business owner! You’ve honed your concept, raised the money, found your perfect space, conducted interviews – and now it’s time to open your doors, with the MBD Marketing and Events team’s tips on how to host a ribbon cutting for your new business.
Picture
​What is a ribbon cutting?
 
A ribbon cutting is a ceremonial opening of your business, usually a formal event where a company representative or local public figure commemorates your new venture. The name “ribbon cutting” comes from the tradition of cutting a large ribbon with supersized scissors to “open” the doorway to the new storefront.

Fun fact: The origin of giant scissors can be traced back to the Bronze Age, over 3,000 years ago.
 
Modern ribbon cuttings need not involve the literal ribbon, though it is still a popular practice. The main purpose of a ribbon cutting is to gain publicity for and raise awareness of a new or renovated business.
 
Ribbon cuttings and grand openings are not one and the same. Grand openings are typically the first time a storefront is open for regular business, while a ribbon cutting is a special event focused on ceremony and dissemination of information.
 
Follow these steps to get the most out of your ribbon cutting:
 
Plan
 
First things first, you’ll need to set a date and time for your ribbon cutting. Your local Chamber of Commerce or an event planner can tell you the ideal day and time to host your event. You’ll also want to check the schedule of any officials or public figures you’d like to attend, before settling on a date. Be sure to allow enough time to plan the logistics of your event and to get the word out.
 
Next, you’ll want to start on promotion (see “Promote” below). While you’re spreading the word about your event, you’ll need to prepare and send invitations to VIPs.
 
Planning the ceremony itself involves considerations about who will host and answer questions, whether you will have any speakers, food, entertainment, seating, photography, and swag such as branded gift bags. Hiring a local event planner like MBD Marketing & Events can streamline this process, and we’ll use our huge network in northern Colorado to get you the best deals from your vendors.
Picture
​Promote
 
You’ll want to get the word out about your upcoming ribbon cutting as much as possible. There are free and paid methods for creating word of mouth about your event in your community. Consider promoting your event through:
 
  • Online calendars (hosted by local newspapers, magazines, and sites like Nextdoor)
  • Promotion and networking by an event planning company hired to execute your event
  • Professional event promotion websites, such as Eventbrite
  • Your friends, family, and neighbors
  • Signs on your new storefront teasing your upcoming event
  • A press release
  • Social media posts by your business
  • Creating a Facebook event
  • Newsletters by your local chamber and downtown business associations
  • Partnerships with other local businesses
 
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the prospect of hours promoting your new business while you’re, well, getting ready to open that new business, you’re not alone. Our marketing and events team can handle all of the above for you!
 
Execute
 
Many people, even business owners, don’t realize what goes into putting on an event behind the scenes – but we are experts. Sticking to your event timeline can be a challenge when juggling multiple vendors and inevitable last-minute mishaps. Having an event planning team working in the background ensures your day will run smoothly, but if you don’t, plan to at least have someone to coordinate vendors and logistics the day of your event.
 
Consider things like:
 
  • Who will pick up any food, rentals, or other goods that need to be brought to your venue?
  • Who will greet vendors when they arrive on-site?
  • Who will verify that vendors have brought everything agreed upon in the contract, and that they set up properly (according to layouts you’ve discussed and/or are in your contract)?
  • Who will put up decorations or do any set up not included in your vendor contracts?
  • Who will deal with a behind-the-scenes crisis while you mingle with guests?
  • Who will clean up after the event and follow up with vendors regarding any payments and feedback?
Picture
​Publicize
 
Ideally, your early promotion efforts enticed local publications to attend your ribbon cutting and/or write about your new business. But you can publicize your event, too. Share photos and information about your event on your business’s website and social media pages. If your website includes a blog, dedicate a post to your successful ribbon cutting.
 
Your event guests are a great source of free publicity. Encourage them to share your event by creating a specific hashtag for posting about your event – this allows you to easily search for posts made by guests. A selfie wall, or eye-catching backdrop for guests to take photos in front of, is a source of entertainment and visual publicity for your ribbon cutting.
​
 
For help planning your ribbon cutting and day-of coordination, book the northern Colorado experts at My Big Day Marketing & Events. We take on the behind-the-scenes stress, so you can enjoy your event.
