How Can I Improve Our Marketing
Marketing a Phone Advertising Business
The value and earning capacity of a phone advertising business largely depends on the quality of its marketing efforts. But great marketing takes a lot more than hanging a shingle and hoping for the best.
Still looking for a way to effectively market your phone advertising business? It's hard to get your messages heard through the industry's noise.
What to know the characteristics that distinguish leading phone advertising businesses from the competition? Surprisingly, the ability to create clear brand messages often outweighs product quality and other considerations.
Company Website
If you haven't done so already, the first step in marketing your phone advertising business is also the anchor point for your technological strategy: A company website. Although many businesses have a website, a poorly designed and unnavigable website is worse than having no web presence at all. Your site is a representation of your business; it needs to convey the same professional appearance and functionality as you expect from any other sales and marketing asset. Conversion paths are also important. With the proper design, your site can walk new visitors through a series of decisions that culminate with either an online sale, a phone order, a personal visit or a request for more information.
Consider New Advertising Channels
Take a look around the industry. Chances are, you'll see companies using a vast array of advertising vehicles to communicate brand messages. That's why for phone advertising businesses, it is mission critical to identify the advertising vehicles that are most likely to meet the specific marketing goals your business is facing right now. Increasingly, phone advertising businesses get solid marketing results from online channels capable of streaming high value content to a large, yet targeted customer base. In general, if your competitors know more about promoting their business online than you, you may lose market share.
Improving Customer Loyalty
You've heard that it's less expensive to retain a current customer than it is to acquire a new one, right? For phone advertising businesses, sorted and updated mailing lists obtained from top-tier providers are effective tools for customer acquisition. But as your customer base grows, you'll also need to develop programs that reward customer loyalty. Get it right and each new customer will represent a step forward in your company's growth; blow it and you'll end up struggling to acquire new customers just to maintain a breakeven revenue position.
