Intentional Growth #333: Grow Faster with an Engineering Approach to Marketing with Chris Sanchez from Mint CRO
Ep.#5 [THEME SIX]
I have personally wasted hundreds of thousands of dollars on failed marketing strategies…and I know I’m not the only one who feels like I’m throwing spaghetti against a wall while money flies out the window.
In last week’s episode, we framed up what marketing KPIs matter and how to connect those metrics to the financials. Today we’re going to talk about why it’s NOT NECESSARY to guess anymore by implementing an engineering approach toward marketing.
In today’s interview, I’m talking to Chris Sanchez, who is the lead advisor at Mint CRO (co-founded by one of the top marketing leaders at Microsoft). Mint CRO has provided CRO training and expert coaching to hundreds of entrepreneurs and marketers to accelerate growth, improve lead quality and sales conversions, and reduce ad spend. Clients have achieved 2X to 10X repeatable growth using Mint CRO’s systematic testing methodology, radically transforming their marketing results.
Chris shares with us Mint CRO’s eight-step process on how to take the guessing away from marketing so you can understand what your customers want–all for under $1,500! Yes, it really is that inexpensive to understand which pain point you solve for your customers, what free offer they want from your brand, and if they are even looking at the offer page that you spent tens of hours building.
The takeaway–There is a simple way to test your marketing to ensure your offer is something people actually want via an engineering approach toward marketing.
This methodology applies to every business–even Arkona (listen in to hear how we’ve used this strategy)!
