6 Holiday Marketing Strategies to Maximize Your Advertising Efforts

 

  1.  Offer Special Deals – Reward your best customers for their loyalty throughout the year by giving exclusive discounts or personal gifts based on their purchase history. Also, don’t forget to take advantage of the highest selling days of the season. Offer special promotions for Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday. 
  2. Create Dedicated Holiday Landing Pages – Send customers to a special page from your social media and emails campaigns. Be sure to have several different designs and do some split testing to determine the highest converting pages. 
  3. Implement a Social Media Campaign – Use holiday specific images, videos, hashtags and special offers to attract customers willing to spend. This is the time when they are starting to search for deals! Encouraging social media interaction will also get people in the holiday spirit of shopping. 
  4. Focus on an Email Campaign – Use email more often to get customers excited about upcoming deals. Make sure to triple your marketing efforts on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Offer a contest, game or countdown to get more engagement. Don’t forget to add a popup subscribe form to your website and welcome new email subscribers with a discount code as well. 
  5. Give Back to the Community – Show support to the community by sponsoring a food drive or collecting clothing and toys for needy families. Many of your customers are looking for ways to make the season more meaningful by sharing with those less fortunate. 
  6. Create a Holiday Video – Get your team together for a fun and inviting holiday video. There’s nothing more personal than sending good wishes to your customers and showing your fun personality at the same time!

How to Improve Your Digital Marketing Strategy to Reach New Customers

Did you know that every day Google notes about 40,000 search queries per second? According to another statistic, active shoppers do a least one search a day. This means customers these days are curious and research driven. The questions you should be asking yourself now is whether your business digital marketing strategy helps you reach those customers? 

If your answer is no, it’s time to work on your strategy. Lucky for you, Google offers a lot of insight into the changing patterns and customer shopping profiles. Here are some things to consider before you put a new digital marketing strategy in place.

How to Improve Your Digital Marketing Strategy to Reach New Customers 

  • Immediacy trumps loyalty – Your business has to be right there when potential customers are looking for something.  Research shows that searches “today, tonight, open now” are becoming more popular every day. 
  • Near me searches tripled since 2015. Is your business Google listing up to date? 
  • Nearly 9 in 10 smartphone users are not certain of the specific brand they want to buy from when they begin to look at information online. This is the chance for your business to stand out. Think of an interesting business creative to grab their attention.

  • Customers are quick to judge a business online if they don’t have a good experience right away. Research shows you only have 3 seconds to make a good impression online! 
  • Customers these days are impatient and they want to access everything right away. If they can’t find your contact information with one click, you may be losing that sale. Make sure your website is mobile friendly and easy to navigate to avoid any confusion. 
  • Customers are more demanding, informed and aware. Therefore, you have to tailor your strategy to market each customer individually. 
  • Mobile strategy is a must – Google is recording more mobile than desktop searches every day. Did you know an average consumer looks at his/her phone about 70 times a day? Mobile phone changed how we interact with the world, so make sure you include a voice search and mobile-friendly website in your business digital marketing strategy.

How Google Brand Accounts Differ from Regular Google Accounts? 

by

Google Brand Accounts

There’s no denying that Google likes to constantly improve its formula in order to stay relevant and bring its users the best search results possible.  

While that kind of commitment to excellence surely is applaudable, it also means we need to keep abreast of every change Google suggests. That is if we want to get the most out of this platform. 

So, what’s new with Google lately? If you haven’t heard about the new feature called Google Brand Accounts, we’re here to tell you all about it. 

 

What Is a Google Brand Account? 

First of all, a Google Brand Account is NOT to be confused with Google+ pages or Google My Business. 

With this new special kind of account for your business or brand, you can publish posts in Google My Business, which appear immediately under your Google Listing in the right-hand corner.   

 what-is-Google-Brand-Account

You can use certain Google services (e.g. Google+, Google My Business, YouTube) with your Brand Account to create an online presence. If you ask us, that’s really an excellent tool for building SEO and promoting brand specials! 

These services can help your business or brand communicate, connect, and share important information with customers and fans. 

How Brand Accounts differ from regular Google Accounts? 

A Google Brand Account can have multiple owners and people who manage it. You and others can jointly manage a Brand Account after you create a Google Brand Account through your own Google Accounts. You don’t need a separate username or password for it. It is also important to create a Youtube Brand Account.

In addition, to manage who can see and interact with your content, it’s important to make sure you adjust each service’s settings. 

 

Needless to say, if you still haven’t taken advantage of what Google Brand Accounts have to offer, don’t wait any longer! If you need more information regarding the set up and maintenance, please visit this link or call us for help!

by

Landing pages have been marginalized by over half of digital advertisers who run display advertising and pay per click campaigns on the fly.  48% of advertisers create a dedicated landing page for each campaign.

That is because landing pages can  have unbelievable conversion rates — turning site visitors into paying customers. However, sending customers who click on ads to a devoted, standalone landing pages is not the mainstream, yet.

Landing pages are becoming more prevalent as advertisers and business are becoming more digital advertising savvy.  No worries. There is still an opportunity for you to gain an edge over your not so savvy competitors.

Effective landing pages can improve your conversion rate without increasing the number of visitors to your site. Now that is savvy!

To give you a better idea of how big of a difference a landing page can make in your digital marketing campaign, we found some stats that will amplify …
