UNITED NATIONS ESCAP Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific#5PURPOSE OF IMAGE BUILDING Image building is meant to encourage investors to learn more about your location's business potential Image building can only be successful if there is a relatively good business environment - - Requires effective policies, laws, and regulations to be in place Government supportive of business and investment At early stages of investment promotion, it is often necessary to expend much more effort on improving a location's image than on generating investment Changing (improving) an image can take time UNITED NATIONS ESCAP Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific#6OBJECTIVES OF IMAGE BUILDING Create positive perceptions of your location's investment market among domestic & international firms ■ Portray and promote your location as the best (emerging) market for (a particular) investment ■ Prepare the groundwork for effective investment promotion techniques Create greater interest among investors in learning more about the investment opportunities in your location Help attain long-term and sustainable development goals ■ Enhance your image and investment opportunities by linking to other locations in your countries or other countries in your region UNITED NATIONS DESCAP Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific#7IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS/STEPS IN IMAGE BUILDING Define who is in charge (IPA) ■ Define your target audience ■ Define the message and marketing theme ■ Set goals, targets, priorities and KPIs Develop a strategy ■ Coordinate with stakeholders and target audience ■ Communicate well using tailored language Be truthful ■ Have a clear time schedule and budget UNITED NATIONS ESCAP Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific#8IMAGE BUILDING STRATEGY ■ The strategy is used to reach your target audiences and convey your messages, as well as for forming the basis of your public relations plan ■ Some key elements of an image building strategy: - - - - - - Marketing theme: Unique Selling Proposition (USP) Target messages and promotion materials to investors Continually develop public relations materials Use a broad spectrum of media to convey the message Build and develop media contacts Work to position the local IPA as the best source of information (credibility building) for the media on investment related issues Work to position the head of the local IPA as a regular spokesperson for the organization UNITED NATIONS ESCAP Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific#9DEVELOPING THE BASIC INVESTOR PACKAGE ■ The information that no investor can be without BOI PAKISTAN THE NEW BUSINESS FRONTIER UNITED NATIONS DESCAP Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific#10WHAT IS IN THE BASIC PACKAGE?
