Engineering Success: Structured Marketing Strategies with Ros Conkie

The idea of a target market has been around for donkey's years. But with increasingly crowded markets, along with better targeting options for your marketing, simply knowing broadly who you’re selling to isn’t enough, particularly if you’re a smaller business with a limited budget. 

In this podcast episode, David is joined by marketing consultant and trainer Ros Conkie to explore strategies for businesses to identify their ideal customers and employ cost-effective marketing tactics to reach them.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • The importance of understanding your ideal customer persona (ICP)
  • What characteristics should form your ICP
  • How to find out what makes your ICP tick
  • How to employ a lean approach to your marketing to continually optimise it
  • The complexities of attribution and a simple way to get a signal from the noise

Profile picture for David Richter

David Richter

I’ve worked in marketing for twenty-something years, cutting my digital marketing teeth when Yahoo was the world’s most popular search engine, the UK’s most popular social network was Friends Reunited and LinkedIn hadn’t been invented.

I’ve spent most of my career helping PE and venture-funded start-ups and scale-ups to grow quickly and profitably, maximising their enterprise value to 8 and 9 figure exits.

My goal is to help you do the same.
