Having A Strategic Marketing Mindset

Is Your Mind Ready For Marketing

Strategic Marketing Mindset

Marketing is leveraging the power of tools that can create brand awareness and brand reach. It is very strategic and requires strategic thinking. I found myself asking the question "what kind of mindset should a marketing strategist have"?

When I think about marketing for a company I envision the market as a battle zone. There are enemies after the same target as I am and only one of us is going to claim the prize. I came across a great article by Sarah Harvey entitled "Marketing Strategy Is Like Planning For War". I was able to take alot of inspiration from this article. It holds a lot of common value and a similar mindset to mine which is to think of marketing as a battle plan, and the office as a beachhead to plan our war. Sarah is the VP of sales for Custom Impressions Inc, promotional products Seattle.

Enjoy this article. Do you have any great articles that inspire your passions and drive for marketing and being strategically minded. If so please share.
