WISPA_23_Day2

DAY 2 WWW.WISPA.ORG 2 1 www.bekabusinessmedia.com Marketbroadband.com, powered by Lorex, showcases its Fiber Field Marketing Toolbox in Louisville at WISPAMERICA. “The number of fiber deployment projects by small companies is growing,” said Ken Janc, President of Lorex, the company behind Marketbroadband.com. “These are often lean organizations that can at times get dragged into the operational side of things at the expense of sales and marketing. The Field Marketing Toolbox makes it easy to keep the marketing ahead of and on top of the fiber deployment and not behind it.” The Field Marketing Toolbox comprises three components: a Deployment Crew Marketing Kit, a Pre-Sales Marketing Kit and an Installation Crew Marketing Kit. Each Kit includes a few easy and affordable marketing tactics pre-packaged for the ISP. As the name implies, these are grass roots tactics executed around the fiber deployment and they complement the broader online digital and direct mail strategies that will follow. “Think of the folks deploying the fiber,” Janc said. “How many times a day does someone stop and ask the crew if they are running fiber plus a million other questions? Do they really have time for that? Vehicle magnets with QR codes that direct homeowners to all the information they need takes that off the field crew. Magnetic brochure holders on the side of trucks are there for the old school folks that don’t want to scan the QR. A-Frame signs ahead of and behind the crews announce and explain the project. Simple tactics that get homeowners engaged early—and ideally, signing up before you’ve even finished the field work.” Each kit is packaged with a few tactics. They can be personalized to the ISP and ordered as packaged or the kits can be customized around the needs of the ISP. Kits will become available on the MarketBroadband.com Authorized ISP Marketing portal on March 20. WISPAMERICA attendees will receive 10 percent off their initial order. m MarketBroadband.com specializes in providing turnkey marketing programs for wireless and wireline Internet Service Providers.
