What is Strategic Relations?

Strategic Relations is a coined term we came up with here at Richter to explain what we do. There’s no other term for it and we don’t feel we fall into the category of PR, Marketing or Advertising. Strategic Relations is the business of identifying the exact target public for our client, crafting communication that will communicate to that target public and get their attention and interest and then turning that attention and interest into a reach,which is another coined term to mean, an ideal relationship for our client which they are most likely to sell and convert to a client relationship that helps fuel their revenue and growth.

We make these strategic relations through many different methods online to find, network and communicate with the exact target public. The internet continues to evolve and platforms continue to be created that allow us to communicate with any given audience. We use tools like social media sites, email, chat tools etc to get our communication on behalf of our client through to an exact target public to begin the dialogue and work the dialogue into genuine interest and “reach.”

Strategic Relations Our strategy is not about volume. We know our clients are not looking for anyone and everyone but rather have very specific relationships they are trying to make and need to make that will help drive their sales and revenue strategically. That’s where we fit in. We work with our clients to define the exact target public, not the broad demographics, but rather a very specific audience that we can drill down to the name of the person we need to approach. We then do the work to make the introduction, develop the interest and cultivate a reach which is a relationship we can turn over to our client so they can work to conclude that relationship toward a profitable outcome. Everything about our strategy evolves from and aligns with the target public for our clients which we work to establish and turn over the right relationships to our client. That’s what they need after all.

We’ve found that by using this approach, the likelihood of closing an ideal relationship built around the target public that is already proven to be successful for our client is dramatically higher than more traditional, broad stroke methods. We’ve found that the right target public is already inclined to do business with our client but up to that point they have not found a way to penetrate that company and person to establish the dialogue and create strong interest resulting in a reach. So a majority of the importance revolves around identifying the exact target public, crafting communication to that exact target public that will impinge and be customized to them and then proactively reaching out to initiate the interest and develop the reach from that exact target public using our focused approach which results in profitable and meaningful relationships for our clients.

Our focus is to be mission critical to our clients and we attain that goal by bringing relationships to the table that measurably impact their growth because they lack the time, know-how and resources to do the work necessary to make those relationships happen. We believe our clients should spend time doing what they do best to focus on selling, closing and then catering to ideal relationships that align with their company and are most beneficial for their long term growth. Strategic Relations is not a marketing strategy, it’s not a PR strategy and it’s certainly not an advertising strategy - it’s a method of making relationships that align with our clients company based on their current profile of successful clients which strategically drives sales. It’s our business to bring the right kind of relationships to our clients taking a surgical approach to make that happen in the most focused, efficient and strategic way possible.

What is the Prime Strategy?It’s a comprehensive program made up of all of the successful methods for developing new business relationships that are tried and tested to result in the most zeroed in, focused approach and efficient method of cultivating exact relationships for any company that will help create growth and expansion of the right caliber clients that align with the company. It includes a sequence of products, services and actions that all align with one another to create the end result of a “reach”. We take a “what works” approach to define the exact target public for our client, craft copy to communicate effectively to that target public, find the target public and all their contact points online and build a targeted database which we then reach out to that target public to make introductions, engage in dialogue and attract interest to entice that target public with artful copy, well crafted videos, punchy elevator pitch PDFs, Introduction Pages among other relevant tools that will help spark interest and ultimately cause the target public to “reach” for our clients products or services.

Why would they reach? Because when you identify the exact audience based on common denominators that are most likely to buy from you based on current clients that buy from you now and then you seek out to engage that exact target public audience, it just so happens that they are already predisposed to buy from you but up to that point, they simply didn’t know about you. We change that. We not only ensure they know about you, we make sure we communicate to them in such a way that it makes your company, your products or your services irresistible so they reach and convert into an ideal sales candidate which your team can then focus on making a client.

Target Public

While a lot of companies talk about their demographic or they may have a broad idea of who they sell to, the research and identification of the exact target public has not been done. Why? Because they’re busy and distracted and don’t have the know-how for how to define the exact target public - we do.

Consider the target public the foundation for success as it relates to new relationships and sales. It’s rather hard to drive sales if you don’t know who you’re selling. Of course, if you like spending hoards of money on wasteful efforts and on trying to capture your exact target public using a massive blanket approach, by all means do so. We’re willing to bet you’d rather not.

Copywriting and Messaging

Now that the target public is defined, we get into copywriting and the message because at the end of the day, communication is everything. Of course, it’s pointless unless you know the target public and what to say to them that will impinge and penetrate.

There’s also an effective way to write which is most effective. We take pride in the fact that we know which way that is. It’s not about what you want to communicate or what you think is important to say but about what your target public needs to hear. The viewpoint must be that of the target public. What’s their need? What are their pain points?

!

An AnalogyOur Strategic Relations services would be like going to a black tie business event where we have clearly identified the exact person you want to meet that night to discuss a very specific business proposition. We know the key people will be there. We’ve done our homework. We would then find the right person in the room that we’re trying to establish the relationship with and we would walk across the room to make the introduction with that person, not a solicitation but rather an introduction. We would know what to say to entice their interest and we would work the conversation up to the point of strong interest so the person (the clients target public) is now reaching for more and ready to walk across the room to establish the dialogue with our client at which point our client can work the relationship into a closed deal. That’s what we do. We’re strategic relationship makers for our clients with the exact Target Public that aligns with their company and that is most desired and profitable for them.

This is the essence of the Prime Strategy. We make ideal relationships happen for our clients that are aligned with their company and that are most likely to become clients of theirs.

A Comprehensive Approach

If you envision the ideal scene for your business development efforts you might imagine having a team of people that can handle anything, people to create a video that communicates your exact value proposition, people to help develop and chalk up new relationships, people to write effective copy to say the right things, people to create material and PDFs that your sales team can send to prospects to help close deals, all leading to a fresh, consistent pipeline of new relationships that lead to sales month in and month out.

We envisioned the same thing. Funny.
