The Lemonade Stand Man it’s been not. I mean two steps out of your house and already in a full sweat hot. And if you are a fair skinned guy like me, there is a good chance you might spontaneously combust.

Heck, I’m sweating as I write this.

Publisher’s thoughts

The heat reminds me of when I was a kid and my first foray into entrepreneurialism; the

lemonade stand. I remember it like it was yesterday. I would grab one of those folding TV trays, a little scotch tape and the cardboard from one of my dad’s laundered shirts and voila – lemonade stand. Of course, I had to have some lemonade and some cups, but I figured that was assumed.

The other day, I saw a bunch of kids with a lemonade stand and

they come running up to my car as I slow down. They jump up on the window and started saying “Hi Mr. Potter. Would you like some lem-

onade? It is only 50 cents.” Without hesitation, I flip the kids a buck and five of them simultaneously carry the cup of lemonade over to the car. They excitedly ask me if I like it and try to close me again by asking if I need a refill.

Interestingly enough, I never got any change from the little capitalists. However, I figure it was small price to pay for what amounted to great customer service, an overwhelmingly friendly sales force, and spot on marketing savvy. It makes you wonder if maybe some people or companies have lost the essence of the lemonade stand.

Are you going overboard for your customers? Do you ask for things? Advice, insight, maybe, I don’t know…an order! Do you ask them if they are happy with the product? And most importantly, are you delivering what they need on a hot day? In other words, is your product and service offering relevant to the climate?

The landscape has changed. Long run print is not the cash cow it once was. New products like digital printing, page turning software, storefronts, and QR codes have emerged. Print salespeople have more stuff to sell than ever before. But, products don’t last forever.

One thing that does last forever is our memories. Heck, I still remember the milk box on the front porch of the house I grew up in back in Erie, Pennsylvania. Imagine what my kids will remember from this period of time. And imagine if you could take the lead in helping your clients memories last forever!

We are excited to present you with our article titled Say Cheese, which gives you insight into the power of photo books and what it could mean to both your top and bottom line.

Combined with Dave Kahle’s Beliefs That Limit a Salesperson’s Performance, our July edition of CANVAS Digital will leave a lasting impression.

Remember the lemonade stand. In the meantime, I wish you a warm summer and a hot streak of sales.

All the best,

Mark Potter Publisher

amantha is the Director of Marketing for a major medical distribution company. One of her biggest tasks each year is to coordinate collateral material for tradeshows and the corresponding client meetings. The problem is that every year she produces material that is generic to the customers and not compelling enough for them to pack into their already stuffed suitcases. In turn, she ends up with an excess of wasted brochures and a disapproving look from her boss.

While many print sellers may think that photo books and post cards are reserved for the consumer environment, the B-to-B space is very ripe.

It has worked very well for us in the automotive space as well as sports marketing.”

Where to start Pannagio: “By starting with a realistic assessment of their strengths. This includes their people and their technology. Leadership and innovation must be pushed to the forefront. Start thinking differently. Stop tinkering and start innovating. Hire people dedicated to providing VDP and integrated marketing services like PURLS and variable emails. Digital print is a big winner. If they have large format web or sheet-fed static print start to provide the opportunity for publishers to offer variable covers and static book blocks. Connect it to the web through PURLS and make it interesting. On top of that they have to start tracking everything for the customer. Not just the accounts receivable but the results of the programs they offer.”

Watermann: “The new landscape starts with the right type of leader that is willing to take risks. Then you need easy to use software and tools. If you don’t have them, find a partner that does” Harrold: “Step one – you need to own a digital piece of equipment. Step two – You need an intelligent software platform to offer your clients.”

Hatfield: “You need to have a front end solution that is robust enough to manage the photo book products and build the books and calendars. High abandon rates of custom publishing products are a huge issue the industry must combat. So encompassing an easy to manage software for the end-user is a key.”

tures were being loaded onto Facebook every day. “How do we compete with that?” Leslie smiled again and reassured her that her company was prepared to offer her a fully integrated solution. She also pointed out that the images were all low resolution on Facebook and that most people won’t do the work to create a hard bound photo book. That is where she comes in.

Chris Harrold says “The opportunities exist where the highest value pages are. Certainly, social networks are becoming a part of every business. However, printers need to consider the opportunity in photo rich products.” According to Watermann, “Social media and how to use them to drive work is always on people’s minds. The biggest photo repository is Facebook but those files are low-res. The expectation is to get client’s high-res photos and become the place where people will go to retrieve them.”

Other trends that will affect the photo merchandise and printing industry include price pressure, technology breakthroughs like the high speed inkjet like HP T300, and the growing interest in self publishing. However, the biggest and most sustainable trend is the focus on customers. With this mindset and a variety of solutions to sell like photo merchandise, sellers like Leslie will be grinning ear to ear.

“ Five Problems You Can Help the Chief Marketing Officer Solve”

By Linda Bishop

The shortest route to any sale is diagnosing pain and curing it. Here are five problems the CMO would love to solve and how you can help.

1. Declining Profitability: Storefront solutions can help organizations reduce overall costs by cutting soft costs and hard costs. Marketers can put all digital assets in one secure location and access it anywhere, any time. They can manage campaigns, order print-on-demand and access inventory. Talk to the CMO because they can authorize the purchase.

2. M ature Markets: In our fast-paced world, new ideas are born, live and die quicker than ever. For marketers, that’s a problem because it’s harder to grow in mature markets because you must snatch market share from competitors. One success strategy in mature markets is niche marketing. Variable data printing is perfect for marketers who are targeting a niche. If your customer is in a mature market, find out if they’re exploring niches.

Tell them how you can help them with targeted campaigns.

3. Increasing Competition: If your customer faces increased competition, they need strategies to stand out and get attention. If you sell wide format, introduce them to new ways to make an impact with banners, oversized posters, stand-ups and large-scale point-of-purchase.

4. P roviding Sales with Quality Leads: I suspect you would like to solve this problem as much as your customer would! One way to do that is by well-thought out leads nurturing campaigns. This marketing tactic helps companies identify prospects who raise their hands and say, “tell me more,” and then provides them with information to generate sales. Learn more at http://www.marketo.com/b2b-marketing-resources/leadnurturing-definitive-guide.php 5. Declining Customer Loyalty: Recently I read a great article called “The Decline of Brands” by James Surowiecki on www. wired.com. Suroweicki says we live in a “What have you done for me today?” economy and that’s why there are great opportunities for printers who help customers create loyalty programs. I recently spoke about this in LA at the PIASC Awards Luncheon. My presentation is posted at http://www.slideshare.net/thoughttransformation/piasc-keynote-presentation.

Good Selling!

P12 CANVAS july 2010

Beliefs that limit a salesperson’s performance:

Good Salespeople are Problem Solvers

G

by Dave Kahle

“Good salespeople are problem solvers.” Or, so the illusion goes. That belief ranks high on my all time list of the beliefs that most limit a salesperson’s performance. This one is especially insidious because it is so commonly held, without reservation, by such a large percentage of sales managers and salespeople.

And it sounds so reasonable.

The world is full of sales managers who

gravely proclaim that good salespeople are good problem solvers. Salespeople who use that belief to give direction to their view of their jobs are found in every sales force.

The problem with this self–limited belief, as in many such ideas, is that there is a grain of truth in it. Yes, good salespeople are good problem solvers. However, they are so much more than just problem solvers. And, when a salesperson or manager focuses on just that small piece of a salesperson’s job, it eclipses all the other more pertinent ideas and limits the salesperson’s effectiveness.

It’s just human nature to live up to the visions we carry about ourselves and allow our beliefs to dictate our actions. And when our beliefs are out of touch with reality, our actions are not nearly as effective as they could be. We see what we look for. And, we don’t see nearly as much of what we don’t look for.

Salespeople, then, who see themselves as “good problem solvers” naturally look around for problems to solve. In so doing, they miss huge opportunities to assist their customers in ways other than problem solving. In fact, many of the best salespeople don’t look for problems to solve, they create discontent in their customers by showing them better ways to do things.

Here’s a real–life example of a “problem– solving” salesperson.

I was asked by one of my clients to work with his sales force. The salespeople were having trouble closing the sale. Here’s what happened in one sales call I made with one of their salespeople.
