Rule #1: Making Yourself Known
ü I don’t know who you are ü I don’t know your community ü I don’t know your community's product ü I don’t know your EDO’s services ü I don’t know what your community stands for ü I don’t know the reputation of your organization ü I don’t know your sites ü I don’t know your buildings ü I don’t know your incentives ü I don’t know the total value you can�

Rule #2: Take the Competition Seriously
It’s tempting for a community to believe that their product or service is the best in the world. The reality of the situation is that companies have many different options for the same product. Companies and talent have the option to go wherever they want, and as a marketer, you must know your products inside and out. Similar community products have to be taken seriously, and your marketing is what helps you stand out.

Rule #3: Be Honest and
Different With Your Marketing
As economic developers, we should start to think differently about marketing because we need our skills and vision to create prospect experiences that tell the story of our community’s true strengths. Being bold with our marketing is about getting deep into the minds of our prospects, key industries and workforce. And providing the strategy and the tactics to deliver on our marketing promise.
How to be bold in Economic Development Marketing
1. Try a new approach, test it and measure it
2. Leverage your industry’s differentiators
3. Tell your story in a way it hasn’t been told before
4. Maximize your marketing efficacy through technology (CMS, GIS, CRM)
5. Be transparent

The ICE BUCKET CHALLENGE
On Friday morning (Aug 29th 2014), the ALS Association announced that donations related to the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge — the social media-powered video challenge, where participants pour a bucket of ice water on their heads and dare others to donate — have topped $100 million in the past month. That’s a 3,500% increase from the $2.8 million that the ALS Association raised during the same time period last year. More than three million people have donated, the association says.

Rule #4: Develop a Purpose for
Your Marketing
• This definition by Peter Drucker is a simple sentence but profound in being the guiding purpose on the role of marketing. There are three major points, which serve as a compass for your EDO:
Understand your customer so well the product or
service fits and sells itself.
– Understand your customer so well: To gain a “so well” understanding of customers means the role of marketing is to research and gain deep – as well as profound – insights into buyers and customers.
– The product or service fits: A guiding purpose of marketing is to identify the specific goals and needs of customers and to guide the creation of products or services to fulfill them.
– And sells itself: Marketing must be able to communicate, as well as provide information, which enables buyers or customers to make informed decisions in such a way – it is self-evident.

Rule #4: Develop a Purpose for
Your Marketing
Is your purpose jobs?
Is your purpose capital investment?
Is your purpose awareness?
Is your purpose board satisfaction?
Is your purpose community engagement?
Is your purpose company education?
Is your purpose to win an IEDC Award?

Rule #5: Get Mobile or Fall Behind
The industry’s best marketers are putting mobile at the center of their company attraction and retention efforts. Branded content--from emails to white papers to videos to annual reports to infographics--should all be optimized for consumption on a mobile device, as there’s nearly a 50/50 chance that that’s just where they’ll be consumed.

You can’t just ask customers what they want
