An Opportunity to Tell Prospective Clients About Your Product or Service

What do you wish prospective clients knew about your product or service?

What problems would you help them solve, if only they knew about what you offer?

What benefits would you highlight? How would you shape prospects’ opinions, if you had a forum through which to speak to them?

Hold those thoughts, here are some more questions.

What if your knowledge and expertise was on display within the pages of a widely-distributed New Zealand business book?

What if your business was also going to be promoted across the Internet on more than 300 authoritative mainstream media websites, all linking back to your website?

Would that represent an incredible opportunity to tell prospects what you do, and make them really interested in how you can help them?

We invite you to join us in providing advice, guidance, ideas and real-world examples for New Zealand businesses, in the form of a book (printed and ebook), articles, videos, virtual summits, social posts and a Resource Directory.

And we will magnify your contributions by promoting them across New Zealand and across the world through articles published to at least 300 authoritative mainstream media websites, with links back to your own website.

Not only will that get your content noticed by many more people, it will also provide valuable backlinks which Google will interpret as a measure of your increased authority and credibility.

Here are the details:

This initiative begins with a book, entitled NZ TOMORROW: New Opportunities, Tools & Techniques for Kiwi Businesses.

WHAT “NZ TOMORROW” WILL COVER

We are inviting some of NZ’s leading business service providers (like YOU) to help Kiwi businesses identify new opportunities that will enable them to survive and thrive as we move on from the Age of Covid.

Here’s an (incomplete, out of order and subject-to-change once we get YOUR input) list of topics we are planning to feature:

  • What NZ Businesses Learned From Local Lockdowns (and what else we should have learned)
  • Upskilling, Reskilling and Pivoting (evolve or get left behind)
  • Resilience as a Business Strategy (when supposedly rare black swan events just keep happening)
  • The New Knowledge Economy (and the changed focus on “How To” rather than “What”)
  • YOUR BIG PICTURE PERCEPTIONS HERE?

  • YOUR DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION TOPIC HERE?

PEOPLE

  • YOUR CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR PERSPECTIVE HERE?

DOING BUSINESS

  • The Gaping Holes in Just-In-Time Product Provision (and what we must do instead)

  • What Social Distancing Means for Consumer-Facing Businesses (and how we might adapt)
  • The Fragmentation and Reinvention of Supply Chains (logistics under the microscope)
  • Capitalising on “Revenge Travel” (the urge to escape after so long behind closed borders)

  • Tapping into the “Bio Revolution” (biomolecules, biosystems, biomachines and biocomputing)
  • Desperately Growth-Hacking and Innovating (we need to be ready to disrupt ourselves)
  • YOUR VIEW ON BUSINESS TRENDS HERE?

CORPORATE VALUES

  • Avoiding “50 Shades of Green” (sustainability, pretended or unevenly applied)

You will be providing relevant, awesome, helpful advice identifying issues facing Kiwi businesses in the Age of Covid and offering innovative solutions.

You are invited to sponsor content on a topic related to your business category and be willing to be interviewed on the agreed topic.

Naturally, topics are available on a product-exclusive* basis, first-come, first-served.

* Some product categories are broader than others. We will mutually agree on the definition of exclusivity within your category.

We will be interviewing you, and creating content, about the opportunities and possibilities inherent in your chosen topic.

Practical examples and case studies are encouraged where available.

We can interview you by Zoom or telephone, or even provide questions for you to answer by email if you prefer.

We will discuss WHO your best prospects are, and what PAIN POINTS your product or service solves.

Then we will craft content accordingly, reflecting the most popular Keyword Search Phrases relevant to those needs.

All topic selection is subject to availability at time of booking.

The NZ Tomorrow Initiative is underway now so we encourage you to act quickly, while your category is still available.
