3. What Is a Minimum Marketable Event
Minimum Marketable Events are moments where your company
showcases how you’re solving real problems customers are
experiencing everyday.
Some examples:
• Product updates.
• Partnerships that enhance your product or service.
• Showcasing how customers are using your product.
• (What insights have they learned you can share with others).
4. Examples of Three MMEs: Product Update
• Product Update
• VERO released three
updates June 18 to its email
tool
• Emojis (for fun only)
• File attachment
• Better segmentation
Capturing emails at every turn
5. Examples of Three MMEs: Partnerships
• LeadPages partnered with SamCart,
which helps businesses by curbing
abandon carts online.
Tactics
• People using LeadPages sell things, and
abandon cart is a top reason for lost
revenue, see the connection?
• The deal was for 6 months of FREE
SamCart
6. Examples of Three MMEs: Showcasing
• Showcasing how customers are using
your product is nothing short of a case
study or new insight into how a product
or service can be used, but they are still
marketing moments.
LeadPages

their sales department with landing
pages.

Attracting New Ones)

8. 3 Tactics to Market Your MME
Communicating can be different for each situation and organization,
so use what works for you.
What’s working:
1. Webinars help you connect with your clients and prospects in real-time (and it can drive
immediate interest in your MME).
2. Blogging offers you a platform to extend and share your MME (and offers a platform for
people to comment).
3. Video give people a more rich experience than blogging (and this can drive more
excitement than text).
9. How MMEs Grow Your Business
MMEs can grow your business in a number of ways:
• Skeptics need proof to make decisions, so showcasing a case study will give that proof.
• Worriers need to social proof to make a decision, so reading about someone else’s
success story provides that assurance.
• Procrastinators will likely hold back unless there is a time limit, so a limited-time
partnership motivates them to action.
This type of engagement is designed to convince those people close to making a
purchase commit to your product or service.
