| Know Your Audience |
A marketing piece shouldn't go above or talk down to an audience. It's important to address listeners at the level of their existing knowledge. Too often businesses speak to themselves and not to their audience. They focus on their own capabilities, vision, or range of products and services -- without considering the needs, interests, or benefits to the customer.
The best way to avoid these traps is to do your homework. Study your audience carefully and identify your primary and secondary markets. Once you know who your audience includes, take time to understand what types of communication will be the most effective, how you will deliver the messages, and what call to action is best.
