Take My "Cosmo Quiz" To Rate Your Marketing
Is your marketing strategy working? Do you have a clear plan, or are you just throwing ideas at the wall to see what sticks? As a marketing consultant with nearly two decades of experience, I've developed a simple tool called the Market Momentum Meter to help businesses answer these questions.
What is the Market Momentum Meter?
Think of it as your marketing health check-up. Inspired by those engaging magazine quizzes we all love, this scorecard helps you evaluate your marketing effectiveness across five key areas. Unlike complex assessments, this tool uses a straightforward yes/no scoring system - you either have something in place, or you don't.
The Five Key Areas of Assessment
1. Strategic Positioning
Your foundation starts with a clear value proposition. Does your business have one? Is it distinctly different from your competitors? Is it consistently communicated across all channels?
2. Target Market and Segmentation
Early in my business, I made the classic mistake of thinking everyone was my potential customer. The truth is, defining your specific customer profiles is crucial for success. This section helps you evaluate whether you truly understand your target market and can identify ideal clients versus those better served elsewhere.
3. Digital Marketing Channels
This section examines your digital presence, including:
Website optimization
SEO strategy
Social media effectiveness
Email marketing performance
Paid advertising approach
4. Content and Messaging
Your brand's voice should be consistent and recognizable. This section evaluates whether your content:
Maintains consistent brand messaging
Aligns with your buyer's journey
Delivers relevant value to your audience
5. Measurement and Analytics
The final section focuses on tracking your success through:
Clear goal setting
Performance reporting
Google Analytics implementation
How to Use the Meter
After completing the assessment, you'll receive one of three ratings:
Marketing Excellence
Strategic Improvement Needed
Urgent Marketing Transformation Required
Remember, there's no shame in discovering areas that need work - that's the whole point of the assessment. Use the results to identify your strengths and prioritize improvements.
