4 kinds of sharing to increase market share
![4 kinds of sharing to increase market share](https://biz-file.com/c/2202/645991.png)
In the past share-of-mind status may have been considered the reserve of established mega-budget brands, but digital, social and B2B media have opened the playing field for many size brands to compete in pursuit of the share-of-mind and share-of-market stakes. Along with social media, the B2B media offers democratic and cost-effective platforms for many brands especially those in business service-related categories.
1. Share-of-mind:
The B2B media is where business communications happen. Including SEO keywords in press releases or articles allows technical, complex or often less differentiated service providers - such as software, security, finance or healthcare - to increase their share-of-mind and position themselves for increased mindshare in the valuable business marketing space.
2. Share-of-voice:
To stand out, or to be perceived as differentiated from competitors or parity categories, any content strategy entails the need for companies to find their unique brand voice. Business content does not have to be dry or technical.
A company’s ethos, the people behind the brand, USPs, innovation - are some of the factors that will allow a brand, even in a parity or less than sexy sector, to be of interest to prospects.
3. Share-of-search
A metric defined as the number of organic searches your brand receives in your category. Consistent delivery of your business content across multiple channels is the key to good ratios of your brand to overall number of searches in your category or sector.
4. Share-of-market:
It’s true that the lion’s share-of-market and profits is usually enjoyed by established and recognisable brand leaders, but the plethora of media channels now available to marketers allows even brands that are not the category leaders to compete for share-of-mind and share-of-market in a product or service category.
Business-to-business communications are becoming an increasingly creative space where brands in any sector can stand out and challenge competitors. Young brands are agile and can have the element of surprise.
Differentiation is key.
What is your company doing differently?
Where are the innovations in your sector?
Fresh visuals, formats, communications and platforms are the tools that allow your brands to play in the B2B space.
