Steps for Success

Know what you’re selling. We found that defined value propositions held our team true to a to consistent sales pitch. When you have 2-3 anchor value propositions, it’s much easier to build content around them.

Know your Audience. Seems simple, but when you begin defining targeted messaging, it’s hard. Especially when you have a diverse set of positions.

Know your communication outlets. Recruiters are the best brand ambassadors. Leverage your team to determine where and how your target audiences receive information.
