Anyone, Not Everyone, Chapter 15: Vertical Relationship Sales and Marketing Strategies
Episode: 15
Chapter Fifteen of Anyone, Not Everyone discusses the significance of being on the "day one list" of vendors that buyers consider without prior research, achieved mainly through colleague recommendations, past experiences, and vendor websites. It emphasizes the importance of building a strong reputation within a vertical market community, akin to integrating into a village, through deliberate relationship-building with influential brands (tastemakers) and mavens.
The chapter outlines strategies for engaging with tastemakers and mavens, participating in vertical associations, attending and hosting events, and being present at vertical-specific "watering holes" to foster trust and become the recommended go-to agency.
