Convenience, Conversions and Contracts; The 3 Important C of Online Marketing
Being
Lazy ain’t Bad Anymore, the “Convenience” of Online Marketing
Online
marketing has gone from becoming a rage to becoming a norm. It is impossible
for a business to survive these days without entering into the realms of online
marketing. However, it isn’t for nothing that online marketing has gained so
much popularity. There are more than enough reasons to it. One of the major
reasons for online marketing to have spread like wildfire is that it eases the
effort to a great extent. It brings everything on the platter within the
confines and comforts of the 4 walls of your house. However, for businesses,
this means a neck to neck competition.
Everything is
provided to the customers on a platter. Obviously, the customer shall first get
attracted to the platter that looks the most appealing. If the appealing
platter is user friendly, you have gained yourself a loyal customer for the
rest of your life. It isn’t said in vain time and again, customer is indeed the
kind and the needs and priorities of the customer need to be kept in mind prior
to anything else. A well decorated platter with a user friendly interface would
mean an appealing and easy to use website. This means that the business shall
need a web designer and a web developer.
However,
simply creating and developing a website will not do, one will also need to
market their website around or else there will never be sales. Thus, it is but
obvious that the creator of the website shall best know how to advertise his or
her work. Thus, it is best to hire a single individual or a single firm for all
digital services. This will not only cut down costs but minimise risks.
Moreover, if anything at all goes wrong, you know where to look at. One of the
biggest benefits of internet marketing is that the shop never shuts down. You
can shop at 3 am in the night if you want.
Hence, it is
necessary that the website be a once and for all thing and need not be changed
time and again. Yes, it is necessary that the website be that well made. Thus,
from design to interaction, everything should be picture perfect. Also, you
don’t have to hire a 24*7 person in order to keep your business running. If
your website is running, your business is indeed running. Hence, keep your
website well maintained and up to date. Thus, things not only got as easy as a
click for your customers but also for you. You don’t have to run around your
shop, showing one dress after the other to your customers. They shall pick
whatever they like from the collection that you have displayed online.
Sold Out!
That’s what all Businesses want for their Product – “The Conversions”
These are the
benefits of online marketing in a nutshell. There is a whole lot more to it. For
instance, it doesn’t just make things easy and convenient; it also helps in
increasing conversions and thereby, improving the profit margin. If you are
reaching out to the right target market, nothing can stop you from making very
high conversions.
If you have
made an attractive and user friendly website and at the same time have put in
efforts to hit on the target market, 90% of your job is done. The other 10% is
the “Wow” factor that will help you become a brand and you will seen find
customers coming to you instead of the other way round.
Prevent
Contractions in your Business, “Contract” the Right People!
For instance,
make sure that your website is never broken, hasn’t fabricated any details and
is to the point. If you are going to give intricate details on your website,
the users shall get bored and leave. Hence, keep it simple and interesting
enough. When it comes to details, you need to necessarily give some of them
such as your own address and phone number. For, if the users have a problem, they’d
know where to go.
Otherwise, it is fairly difficult to trust online buying. All
the more so, since it became an utterly common thing.
However, if
you hire different people or different agencies for each of your services, it’d
be difficult to pull all your strings together. More often than not, such
businesses fall apart. Hence, when things are so complicated, it is best to put
in one trusted person into picture instead of bricks and fragments from here
and there. As it is often said “Too many cooks spoil the food” and nothing
could be further from the truth. Isn’t it but obvious that if more than the
required number of people work at something, it is a sure shot ruin?
