The Three Dimensions of Marketing Momentum: A Refined Framework
1. Depth: Neural Pathways of Trust
Think of each meaningful interaction like a river carving through bedrock. One flow barely leaves a mark, but repeated authentic engagement creates deeper channels that become default pathways for trust.
Consider each valuable interaction as a pathway being forged. One may not leave a lasting impression, but repeated authentic engagement creates deeper connections that solidify into enduring trust.
Here's how it works in practice:
First interaction: An investor reads your analysis of market dynamics
Second interaction: They notice your unique perspective on interest rate impacts
Third interaction: They recognize your pattern of contrary but accurate predictions
Fourth interaction: They start anticipating and seeking your viewpoint
Each layer deepens their neural association between you and trustworthy insight. It's not just about frequency – it's about creating consistent, reinforcing patterns that literally reshape how their brain processes your presence in the market.
2. Breadth: Controlled Market Resonance
This dimension is about creating deliberate, attributable presence across multiple channels and audience segments – but always with you at the center of the narrative.
The mechanics of effective breadth:
Channel Orchestration: Each platform amplifies your core message differently
LinkedIn establishes professional authority
Email nurtures intimate investor relationships
Webinars demonstrate real-time expertise
Quarterly letters showcase analytical depth
Signature Frameworks: Develop proprietary approaches that:
Can't be easily replicated
Carry your distinctive intellectual fingerprint
Create clear market differentiation
Build recognizable methodologies
Strategic Visibility: Appear in venues where attribution matters
Industry panel appearances
Podcast interviews with clear personal branding
Published articles
Branded market research
It's easy to get lost and overwhelmed at this stage, and often where discipline dies because the implementation of the systems to accomplish this can be daunting if attempted all at once. Take it one layer at a time. And remember, you aren't building a media company; you're simply orchestrating a multi-channel presence where every touchpoint reinforces your authority and unique value proposition.
3. Time: The Micro-Credibility Cascade
This is where the magic happens. Time transforms quantity into quality through an invisible accumulation of micro-moments:
A consistently maintained LinkedIn presence
Quarterly market letters that never miss their schedule
Rapid but thoughtful responses to market shifts
Regular, insight-driven investor updates
Each micro-moment feels inconsequential. But they stack, layer by layer, like sediment forming limestone. Then something fascinating happens – a threshold effect. Suddenly, you're no longer clawing for investor commitments; investors are seeking you.
The Critical Intersection:
When all three dimensions compound simultaneously, you achieve what I call "a well oiled machine" (yes, that is technical marketing jargon):
Depth ensures your relationships have recession-proof durability
Breadth creates a controlled, multi-channel authority presence
Time transforms consistent effort into market leadership
The key to staying disciplined is remembering how these dimensions reinforce each other:
→ Deep relationships in one channel create opportunities for broader visibility
→ Broader, controlled presence accelerates relationship depth
→ Time allows both depth and breadth to compound in your favor
This three-dimensional approach transforms marketing from a series of campaigns into a sophisticated system for building enduring market presence and investor relationships. Each dimension amplifies the others, creating exponential rather than linear growth in your capital raising capabilities.
