Having a sound digital marketing strategy in place is imperative for your business growth. When it’s properly running, digital marketing is the gift that keeps on giving. When it’s not, you effectively have a giant brick sitting on the internet. With so many tactics available, how do you choose the right one?<\/span><\/p>\n It would be fantastic if there were a one-size-fits-all tactic that always worked for every single niche. In that world, we all wear the same color clothing and eat the same food. But, seeing as how everyone I meet isn’t wearing blue and eating anchovy pizza, such is the pain of marketers and others who would promote their businesses. Even though there are no guaranteed tactics, there are some guidelines you can follow.<\/span><\/p>\n Whether you choose a referral marketing, or a digital one, before embarking on a single tactic, it\u2019s necessary\u00a0to define your strategy<\/em>\u00a0or overall goal<\/em>. In other words, you have to know your ‘why you’re doing this’<\/strong> before you work with the ‘how you’re going to get there’<\/strong>.\u00a0This lets you get to your goals in the most efficient manner.<\/span><\/p>\n In marketing, there are four steps in <\/span>the sales process<\/span><\/a>: attention<\/strong>, interest<\/strong>, desire<\/strong>, and action<\/strong>. The four reasons to run a digital marketing campaign correspond with one of those parts of the process. You can even hire a\u00a0virtual assistant<\/a> to help with your digital marketing efforts.<\/span><\/p>\n The goal here is to simply show up on the radar of your customers. In this instance, you want to get your brand in front of as many eyeballs as possible by creating something that the most people within your niche would want to see. This step is where your potential client’s attention is drawn to the fact that you exist.<\/span><\/p>\n Even though they know you exist, they might not have ever ‘set foot’ on your website. This type of marketing effort is designed to get possible customers to take a look at your resources and other items which might be on your site.<\/span><\/p>\n Now that they’ve visited your site, you want them to engage with your company and its products. You want those visitors that you received in the ‘generate traffic’ purpose to give you permission to send emails and other documentation to them. Lead generation techniques<\/a>\u00a0are employed in the lead generation campaign created to help your customers make a decision about your company.<\/span><\/p>\n What converts a tire-kicker into a customer? Are there specific tactics that you can use to generate sales for your company from your digital marketing campaign? Once your client has the desire to purchase products in your niche, it’s time to get them to take the action and have them purchase your products in the niche. <\/span><\/p>\n Every tactic that you choose for marketing, whether you\u2019re hanging out flyers at local college campuses or running a smooth multi-touchpoint campaign spanning every outlet under the sun requires money and resources. Not only that, but every tactic has separate price points within the fold, it just depends on how much you want to do.<\/span><\/p>\n So, not only do you have to be aware of the type of campaign that you\u2019re running<\/strong>, but you have to know how much money you want to spend<\/strong> on the campaign itself. Everything must be budgeted for: if you\u2019re running a <\/span>PPC campaign<\/span><\/a>, you have to allocate the funds for the spending as well as a marketing firm to handle and manage that account.<\/span><\/p>\n If you\u2019ve only got $500 to spend, you\u2019re going to be doing a lot of the legwork yourself.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If you\u2019ve got a couple thousand to spend, you can expect that you will get some more things done.<\/p>\n It comes down to the fact that you have to pay to play. The more money and time you put in, the more strategies and channels you can try out.<\/span><\/p>\n1. Know Why You\u2019re Running The Campaign<\/h2>\n
