According to Mr. Kwame Adu-Mante, It is one thing having an idea and another thing to run a business with that idea.
“You need to have creative means of marketing ” and encouraged the audience to position themselves to be able to sell value and not just products.
In considering the strategic means of marketing, “You need to strike a chord with the consumer in order to have a productive market sale especially based on your target group” he said.
Mr. Kwame Adu-Mante also explained that to improve on these market challenges, “You must devise creative ways that will allow people to know your product”.
He stated that having your own network before going to the real outlet and identifying an outlet that is in line with your product will allow your product to be known in the longrun.
According to him, the game changer to marketing is when your product is centered with consumer experience, that is, how people view your product or how they feel when using your product.
He continued on to add that when consumer centered experience becomes key, the pricing strategy will be able to take effect by giving you the opportunity to charge a little bit higher for value which may take you on the road to success.
