What's your HNW marketing strategy?
The 1st first is convincing for people to anticipate that the MASS marketing strategy (non-differentiated marketing) may not be effective to market to the 100s thousands of people in the HNW segment.
One of the example, the recent 5 elements Fund from JF which is using the MASS marketing strategy may not be able to capture the HNW segement. (for details for discussion for this fund, please refer to the WSM article by editor posted in last month) However, it can create a good enough public awareness and an atmosphere, which may be able to capture the attention from some of the hidden potential HNW segment of people. So for marketer who spending to use this resourceful marketing strategy should be:
carefully identity what positive effect can be brought out by the MASS marketing
follow up to approach to the customer following the positive effective (it is usually missing by the service providers).
On the other hand, from the economic point of view, MASS Marketing is not worth to do so. But from the other MPF providers, it is not bad to take the follower strategy (at this moment). See below...
