Op-ed: the person in the mirror is not your customer

person in the mirror

We've spoken about the 'Man in the Mirror' problem. It's a common issue. Too often, organisations assume their audience is a reflection of themselves. The truth is, the person in the mirror is not your customer. You need to engage with their needs and their goals, in their language. But how can you tell if you're letting your own biases or preferences colour how you interact with your audience? We've got some advice in this op-ed webinar.

About the webinar

customer communication

Is your marketing for you, or for the customer?

It's all too easy to slip into marketing for yourself. We offer some data-driven tips around discovering your audience's needs, pain-points and goals to ensure you're speaking to the right people.

Eliminating bias

The person-in-the-mirror problem leads to unconscious bias about who you're talking to. It's important to weed this out from the start to ensure you're not missing the diverse needs of your target market, and the opportunities those needs present for your business.

How to communicate effectively online

Essentially, this webinar comes down to communication. Once you move from a 'my business, my services' position to being more customer-centric, you can start to communicate more effectively. More on this in the webinar.

"Articulate are one of the easiest agencies to work with. They know what they are doing and are very upfront about what we could expect from them, but also what they’d expect from us in return, helping to build a healthy working relationship. Articulates approach has been a very refreshing and positive experience."

"We knew we needed to reinvent our brand to project a more professional and grown-up image, that matched our work standard and ethos. Matthew and the Articulate team led us gently into identifying what makes us tick as a brand, what sets us apart from the crowd and what we want to project."

I cannot recommend our experience with Articulate enough. They took the time to understand our needs and requirements. We had open lines of communication and a clear plan. The website built for us is not only highly functional and user-friendly on desktop and mobile, it incorporates all the necessary features, is clean, bright, welcoming, easily navigable, and simple for us to update on our own going forward.

"When Articulate helped us redesign our website and move it to HubSpot as a CMS/Host, this is when we quickly began to realise the true value of Articulate and the power of the HubSpot platform. Since going live we are now experiencing triple-digit growth and this trend is not slowing down."

"A very clear and focused plan on getting from an empty CRM to something that will support getting customers through the funnel. Doing HubSpot the Articulate way gives more time for customers, and takes away lots of time spent on customer admin. Safe pair of hands for your sales engine."

"Despite being "small", we received a white glove experience. The team is incredibly professional, the customer experience is delightful, the deliverables so far are exceptional. I can't wait to see the results of the entire project and start new projects with this amazing team."
