What is marketing and why do I need it?

Marketing helps your sales team by maintaining good relationships with existing customers by providing continuous communication and staying on their radar. Marketing also builds company awareness to expand your customer base and helps in recruiting new talent. Without marketing, your company can become out of sight, out of mind.

Marketing is not a one-time fix, it is an ongoing strategy that helps businesses grow.
What are modern marketing strategies for the water industry?
Strong, consistent branding

Strong, professional branding indicates that you’re a reputable business. Your logo, color palette, fonts should be used consistently to create a visual identity that immediately connects it to your company, at a glance. Mismatched materials create a chaotic impression and can look visually like different companies without a thorough look. Consistent visuals also save time/money by using guidelines and templates… and not starting from scratch each time.
Ongoing original, relevant, and interesting content.

Content can be in video or written form, it should be worth readers time, not promotional. For example it could be educational, feature an employee and their expertise, a customer or project experience, new products offered, comments on relevant news or regulations, upcoming events/webinars/technical presentations, etc. Content should be distributed in a variety of ways for maximum visibility. It should be posted to your website’s blog (which also helps in search engine optimization), Linkedin posts, emailed and in print form (newsletter) for handouts and mailing.
