Here’s Your Must-Have Digital Strategy Checklist

Here’s Your Must-Have Digital Strategy Checklist 

When discussing your digital marketing strategy, we can’t forget about all the other basic business elements that will contribute to your plan of action. Understanding your “why”, having a polished elevator pitch, defining your buyer persona and knowing your competitive advantage are crucial concepts to take into consideration before implementing your digital strategy. 

According to The Digital Minds Book by WSI, building your plan of action requires answering important questions first. Here’s what should be on your digital strategy checklist: 

 

Must-Have Digital Strategy Checklist 

 

  • Building Your List and Your Database – This is where you’re going to nurture your prospect and customer base. Choose a platform that allows you to monitor every stage of your customer’s journey all the way to the sales pipeline.
  • Building Your Core Message – Think of this as a story your brand needs to tell the customers so they better understand your services or products. The more you focus on one main idea you’re trying to sell the better!
  • Defining Goals Within Your Strategy – Your marketing message should align with goals you’re trying to accomplish. Whether it’s generating more leads and sales, gaining authority and relevance in your industry or simply nurturing relationships and connections you already have, defining your goals will help you develop a more accurate brand messaging later on.
  • Defining the Channels – Each channel requires a different format so be selective when trying to find the right platform to carry your message. A question you should ask yourself here is: What are the digital channels that you will use to reach each buyer persona?
  • Measuring Results – This is the final strategy element that is best utilized when paired with marketing automation tools that provide analytics on a regular basis.

This Invention Will Protect Your Privacy and Block Electronic Devices from Listening to Your Conversations

This Invention Will Protect Your Privacy and Block Electronic Devices from Listening to Your Conversations

In the age where we can get information in an instant, sometimes it works against us. Have you ever found yourself talking in private about something you may want or need only to be bombarded by ads trying to sell you that specific product right after? Yup, the Internet and electronic devices are listening! 

Don’t want Alexa or Siri to hear what you’re talking about? Thankfully, there’s a solution. This “Bracelet of Silence”will protect your privacy and actively block electronic devices from picking up on your conversations. Simply switch it on and the array of 24 ultrasonic transducers will jam microphones in ALL directions.  

According to Yanko Design, the ultrasonic transducers emit a frequency that can’t be detected by human ears, so you can scramble electronic devices around you but still have a normal conversation knowing fully well that your phone or watch isn’t privy to what you’re talking about. 

Such invention may sound extravagant now, but we believe it has a chance of becoming our new normal. The NY Times called it an anti-smartwatch, both in its cyberpunk aesthetic and in its purpose of defeating technology. And we agree. If the price of privacy means investing and wearing a funny looking tech bracelet, count us in. 

Let’s be honest, nobody likes eavesdropping. Even if you don’t own one of the Home Recording or Smart Speakers products that are supposed to make your life easier, you most likely own a phone. How does it make you feel knowing there’s a high chance you’re being listened to at all times? We would love to hear your opinions!

How to Identify Your Ideal Customer Using a Buyer Persona

by

Buyer Persona

While digital marketing is a multi-faceted job, one of the most important responsibilities for us digital marketers is to know who we’re talking to. Without defining that perfect buyer persona in the beginning, it’s rather challenging to turn leads into loyal customers later on…

That being said, you can’t execute a successful digital marketing campaign without knowing your target market. Want to know how to identify your ideal customer? Here’s what you need to know first.

What Is a Buyer Persona?

According to Alan Cooper (a pioneer software developer), a buyer persona is a semi-fictional representation of your ideal customer based on market research, customer demographics and behavior, real data about your existing customers, and your understanding of their motivations and challenges.

Whether you’re in the midst of developing a product or getting ready to launch a marketing campaign, we strongly recommend considering your buyer persona before you dive into this next step. There’s nothing worse you can do for your business than sending out the wrong messaging that doesn’t resonate with the people you want to do business with. However, if developed correctly, buyer personas will point you into the direction of customers who will bring you the most revenue on a long-term basis.

Identifying Your Ideal Customer Using a Buyer Persona

Great tools to start with are Google Analytics and Facebook Audience Insights. Those existing demographics can point you in the right way of who your buyer personas might be. Pay attention to the characteristics such as gender, age, visitor location and their interests.

Another way to identify your ideal customer is to review your existing customer base. Can you identify the contacts that decided to do business with you in the past? This is important to keep in mind because you don’t want customers who are just interested in seeing your content. You want those who are making purchasing decisions!

Part of the process of creating a strong buyer persona is to understand your unique selling points. How does your ideal customer engage in your sales process? What can you do to help them solve their problems? What about your content? Is there a call to action? Those are all questions you should be asking yourself before nailing down your ideal customer.

What to Do Before Implementing Your New Digital Marketing Strategy in 2020

by

Digital Marketing Strategy in 2020

New year, new digital marketing strategy! Now that we’re halfway through the first month of 2020, it’s time to talk about your business. Analyzing your business is the first step to understanding your plan of action. 

Are you wondering where to start? Here’s what you need to take into consideration before you figure out the best digital marketing strategy for your business. 

 

What to Do Before Implementing New Digital Marketing Strategy in 2020 

 

  1. Digital Audit – There’s always room for improvement and your business online presence is no exception. When was the last time you updated your website? How about your online directories? Taking care of your online properties strengthens your SEO, which results in generating more leads for your business!
  2. SEO Audit – This is when you determine which keywords bring you the most traffic or which web pages attract relevant traffic to your site. Tools like SEMrush work great to figure this out on a page by page level. Once you figure out the list of your best keywords, make sure to go over your meta titles, descriptions, headings and content for each webpage to see where you can improve.
  3. Content Audit – Think of your content as a marketing opportunity to reach your potential clients. What you put out there has a great power to take your clients from the awareness to the decision stage. Does your current content provide value, relevancy and include a call to action?
  4. Social Audit – What social media channels are you currently using? What type of engagement is your business getting? How about your followers and online reviews? Once you figure out which platforms are generating the most interactions, you will know what social media channels are worth your money and time.
  5. Insights Audit – Monitoring your website each month is crucial to know how your digital marketing efforts are supporting your business objectives. Free tools like Google Analytics are easy to use and the data they provide can help you make informed business decisions in the future. 

 

 

As you can see, the first step to creating a comprehensive and successful digital marketing strategy in 2020 is looking at a big picture. Once you audit all of the mentioned avenues, you will have a better understanding how you can improve your strategy so your business can thrive!
