Collateral

Lateral but at the center of your business

You may tend to think of collateral as, well, collateral. Lateral. Peripheral. Off to the side.

Yet collateral can be the lifeblood of your sales efforts. Aids that you use to build up and enhance your brand.

As answers.com suggests, collateral materials include

  • sales kits
  • technical specification sheets
  • presentation charts
  • news releases
  • letters
  • films and videos
  • catalogs
  • booklets
  • trade show exhibits
  • point-of-purchase displays, and
  • annual reports

And this list, while suggestive, is just the start.

Any way you can get your message out, aside from capability brochures and websites, may be collateral.

And yet central to the success of your venture.

Part of your strategic plan

As with brochures and websites, collateral materials too must be integrated into your strategic plan. Must all point to the same successful end.

Otherwise, they are futile pellets. Misspent ammo. Scattershot.
