Smartphone Advertising: Proof that Businesses Should Do More with their Mobile Strategy

Everyone is mobile, and it has been like this for a while—kids texting at the dinner table, cell phones going off in a lecture, the movie theater announcement to “Please silence your cell phone,” taking important business calls at a restaurant, etc. It can be considered rude to some, yes, but we have all done it because we are mobile. And many of us welcome smartphone advertising, at least in terms of getting coupons to save money where we shop, eat, buy products or services.

Cell phones are the doors to our social lives, that’s why they are attached to everyone’s hands! This explains why mobile advertising continues to be extremely promising. The sheer fact that SMS can make it to any kind of phone is huge! Texts can be sent to many (the genius of this is that it is opt-in/opt-out) which can maximize the impression of a brand. So, sending messages, keeping in touch with customers, offering coupons or discounts should be in any mobile strategy.

Smartphone ownership continues to rise. Nielsen predicted that one in two Americans would own a smartphone by Christmas 2011. There’s talk about smartphone ads surpassing television ads—globally speaking, there are over three times more mobile subscribers than TV subscribers—probably because of the affordability. Nonetheless, smartphones have many functions.

Smartphone Advertising: The Possibilities Are Endless

Although not as direct as SMS, email is making a comeback from its spammy past. As long as smartphones are programmed to make the sifting easier, consumers can get to get to what they opted-in for. Emails lead to purchase because of the growing activity of shopping via smartphone, due to increasing functionality of the devices, and owners becoming more tech-savvy. It also helps that websites are becoming “mobile friendly.”

GPS location-based services and social media provide specific data—people are more directly targeted based on location and personal preference. Smartphones allow individuals to create a personal atmosphere. Anything that clashes with this is considered invasive and uncomfortable. This is easily avoidable…

Businesses can make impressions, build relationships with consumers, and make a sale, even build loyalty—as long as they are engaging consumers, thus unmarketing—talk with, not at.

Smartphone advertising is the most successful way for businesses to advertise a message in this on-the-go, short-attention-spanned-society that demands instant gratification and real-time information.

Staying current takes time: start a text message marketing campaign, blog, tweet, send emails, Facebook posts, etc. Say a businesses’ last tweet was three months ago, or it did not respond to a post on its page—that could make or break how reputable a business is.

Small businesses should realize that smartphone advertising is meticulous, and takes some time and experience. Hire more staff, or choose the more affordable route of outsourcing. The mobile world is always updated, changed, and customized; it is worth it for any business to be as current and engaging as possible.

Using Text Message Marketing to Build Your Customer Base

By admin Leave a Comment

Since the introduction of social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter, the way we interact online today has changed forever, and the introduction of text messages has changed the way we use our cell phones forever. The number of businesses who are choosing to invest in a new way to communicate via mobile marketing has grown substantially, and now businesses of every size have the opportunity to do the same. Today, using text messaging to build your customer base is something that should not be ignored.

Marketing text message comes with a number of benefits that other types cannot provide. First, virtually every text message sent will be received by the recipient almost instantly so this can prove effective when you are providing a time sensitive offer. Second, you will find that around 94% of all text messages sent today will be read and nearly everyone who subscribes to your SMS program will then see it.

Since you know that those who have subscribed have chosen to receive your offers or promotional messages, you also know that they are actively interested in your product or business. So of course there is the bigger possibility that they will choose to make a purchase from you.

Marketing a business includes constantly looking for ways that you can increase your customer base in the hope that you will then begin to make more sales and build loyal customers for the long term. There are numerous marketing techniques to employ and text messaging is just one platform that can be utilized – others shouldn’t be ignored since the most successful businesses consistently utilize more than one form of advertising.

We mentioned that through text message marketing you have the opportunity to reach customers quickly and easily. That is because the majority of people keep their cell phones within three feet at all times, and 97% of people open their text messages right away.

Marketing Text Message

This new way to keep in touch with prospects and customers provides you with a way to invite them immediately into your store or office, to offer coupons or discounts, or to announce news that is beneficial to them. By simply asking to communicate with them via text messages you have a way to not only keep in touch and strengthen your relationship, but also to secure an immediate response if you desire.

The most important consideration is to respect the opportunity to connect with people this way, and to provide value when you do. The text message list that you are creating will only be sustained, and continue to grow, if you insure that the people who opted in remain interested in what you are offering. Remember that these people always have the option to opt out of what you are offering at any time.

What many small businesses do not realize is that text message marketing is one of the most inexpensive ways to actually advertise your business. Plus mobile marketing allows you to reward those that remain loyal to you.

When you send out a text message it is important that you offer something that will benefit the person on the receiving end. Certainly one of the best things that you can do is offer them a coupon or discount so that when they make a purchase from you they get the item at a lower price. You can track what works the best by measuring the results of each communication.

You can let people know about your text message program through all forms of communications with them – and through your advertising. Include the invitation to text your business (opt-in to the service) on all of your present advertising. Make flyers and add it to your business cards, email signature, signs at your place of business and anywhere that you communicate with prospects or customers.

If you have a website, a Facebook Fan Page, a Twitter or YouTube account, or blog, add your test message information. Write a press release and announce your new text message marketing campaign that offers coupons and discounts. If you do newspaper, radio, television or internet advertising, include your text message marketing details.

Marketing text message to build your customer base can be one of the most effective tools that you can implement to market your business. Use this platform to benefit your prospects and customers and always value the privilege of having their permission to communicate.

Text Message Marketing: Available to Any Size Business

By admin Leave a Comment

Local businesses and small businesses now have an opportunity to use text message marketing to connect with customers and clients the same as large businesses and even television are doing. Until recently most small business and local business owners felt that text message marketing was beyond their reach in terms of cost – and especially in these early days of text message marketing. They see the big businesses doing it but they also know that a large price tag accompanies those programs.

For small business owners who would like to use text messages to communicate special offers, coupons, discounts on slow business days, or announcements, they can use a service that will store their contact phone numbers and send out a message whenever the business owner makes the request. There is no large set up fee and the texting fees are very reasonable for a small business.

Marketing Text Message

This is very exciting for small businesses in terms of utilizing a new way to connect with customers, and that is a huge part of their customer’s life. Everyone is texting and people like to get discounts or special deals.

There are two ways a small business can start using text message marketing. If they have someone in-house that can run the program, they simply need connected to an sms provider. If the business owner would rather a mobile agent set up the program and manage the messages, that is available as well.

Finding new customers is more expensive than keeping existing customers. Statistics show that repeat customers also spend 67% more than new customers. It makes sense to keep in contact with existing customers and invite them back to the business. Text message marketing can work especially well at restaurants and other entertainment facilities, and essentially at all businesses that require customers to walk through the doors.

There are five times as many cell phones as personal computers. 97% of text message get read, in contrast to a much lower percentage of emails. And text messages are seen right away because the majority of people who own a cell phone have it within 3 feet of themselves at all times. These are exciting statistics when you think in terms of how text message marketing can impact small business revenue, and it can get immediate results.

Google Slaps and Internet Marketing Best Practices

By admin Leave a Comment

If you use the internet to market your business – to get new leads and customers – you should keep up with news in the internet marketing industry. In this case, so that you will know what NOT to do.

Just before Valentine’s Day, 2011, the JC Penney story, known as The Farmer Update, became public in the New York Times, and Overstock.com had a similar slap by Google. It appears that both companies were utilizing marketing strategies that Google does not like.

JC Penney was using content farms to create lots of content and massive numbers of website pages to link back to them. This is not the kind of new and original content that Google likes. And Overstock.com was using college students and people with access to .edu links to increase the links to their website. Google does consider .edu links to be valuable but not when obtained in this spammy way.

Google likes natural content – that individuals produce and post. It also likes comments that people make when they provide a link to go with that comment to be natural and unique – and posted individually.

We are still in the infant stages of using the internet to market our businesses. The same as we use best practices offline, it’s important to use them online. You may get away with some things for awhile, but when you depend on a search engine like Google to send traffic to your website, you should be aware that they can take it away if they don’t like how you have obtained it.

Some other news: Matt Cutts, spokesman for Google, recently gave us some insights to other things Google is concerned about. He said that going forward Google searchers are more likely to see sites that wrote the original content (rather than a site scraped or copied from original content) as top results on search queries. He also said that their spam engineers who had previously been pulled for other projects are back to working on the task of keeping Google search results valuable and relevant – a hint that more slaps may be in the works.

Another specific mention that Matt made concerns the value of having a domain name that is the exact match for your main keyword. An example would be horseridingtips.com. Recently Google has been rewarding website owners with almost immediate top rankings if the keyword was in their domain titles. There are people abusing this strategy and creating large numbers of poor quality websites. Many of the sites built on these domain names are put up quickly and do not contain much content or value. Google is changing that. While it won’t hurt quality sites, it’s not going to help internet marketers that are putting up these websites in order to quickly monetize them and not provide good information to the reader.

There is one last issue to note (in case you haven’t already noticed). When you go to Google and enter a search query, you will see more social media sites listed as results. These include anything from real time Twitter tweets, to Facebook pages, to blogs or bookmarking sites. Google is paying more attention to your business website’s social value. They want to see if people are interacting with you, or basically – liking your website. So, having social presence is a way Google can measure what people are looking for in a search engine result; and it provides more value to you in terms of getting more Google traffic if you have some social power.

It can be hard keeping up with ‘everything marketing on the internet’. That’s because a lot of it is new and also because things change so rapidly. It is beneficial to be connected to a service that will track internet marketing news and strategies for you, or at the very least pick a good blog to follow that posts ‘everything internet marketing.’

Takeaway: If you want to count on getting more traffic to your website (and more leads and customers) from Google, focus on some of the things Google likes:

A blog where you post regular content that is good quality (you get 55% more traffic if you have a blog on your website)
Social power – join at least a few social media websites AND be active on them
Variety – write press releases, post a video or image, get some quality links to your website – Google likes to see you are doing a mixture of work on your website

Google Places Business Listing

By admin Leave a Comment

Is your business listed in the Yellow Pages of your local phone book? Or are you a small business that could not afford an expensive monthly Yellow Pages listing?

Either way, Google found you and created a Google Places local business listing for you.

The question is: have you verified your business listing?

When Google creates your listing in Google Places, it shows your contact information and may show it in Google Maps. Your listing may even include a couple of reviews that Google pulls from other websites such as Yelp, Merchant Circle or other business sites.

That’s the extent of what Google does for you. What you need to do is to verify your listing so that you can continue to be shown at the top of Google local listings for your market, or get to the top if you are not yet there.

Google allows you to input more business information, obtain citations and positive customer reviews. They have coupons for you to advertise that also connects you to the mobile opportunity where people can find you on their cell phones. Google even has QR codes available to you and there is a lot of marketing ideas that you can integrate with your Google Places account to help you grow your business, get more prospects and more customers.

When people go to Google and search for your business, type of service or product, and location, they now find the local business listings, Google Places, along the left side of the search results page – right with the organic listings that 70-90% of people click.

If your business has ‘claimed’ or ‘verified’ its listing, it has a much better chance of being at the top of the listings in your local area.

How do you know if your business has verified its Google listing? We can tell after a few clicks if your business listing has been verified. If you go the ‘Places’ page after you do a Google search for your business + location, you will see if there is an ‘Owner Verified’ tab shown or a ?

If you don’t verify your listing, you risk losing your spot in Google.

Claiming Your Business’s Google Places Listing

Here are three important reasons why it’s more important than ever to verify your Google Places page (read each carefully so you understand AND appreciate the significance this can mean for your business):

When Google made some recent changes to search results, Google Places results now appear when Google predicts that people are searching for local information when they type in the Google search bar. You can get there without the kind of monthly fee that Yellow Pages charges – Google listings are free.

In addition, the local results are no longer separated from the organic Google results (the links that appear down the left side of Google searches). Local Google Places pages are now integrated with those organic results. This is important to know because 70-90% of people click on organic results rather than paid ads that run down the right side of Google search pages.

Also, there will be a link for “Places” in the left-hand panel (menu section under Google heading) of a Google Search page so searchers can switch to local results whenever they want. Some people who search in Google will choose to turn this on and focus on local business results only – and you want to be right at the top!

Optimizing your Google Business Listing in Google Places

Google Places business pages are enhanced listings with more information than is usually returned in a Google result.

You have the opportunity to add business information, pictures, website links, videos and reviews. There is a map and directions to your business.

You can increase the value of your Google Places page (in Google’s eyes) by continuing to add content to the page including additional reviews, add citations, and also add valuable content to your business’s main website as well. All of these activities work together to give authority to your business on the internet.

Right now 20% of searches on Google are related to location. It is important that your business is listed high on the first page of a Google search. People primarily click on the top results.

Google Maps are the new “Yellow Pages”. Maps are also mobile and will show up on cell phones – and the number of people getting smart phones with internet access increases every day. People can call you simply by clicking on your phone number in your business listing. More and more people are doing this because it is fast, easy and integrates with the mobile world where we now live.

Takeaway:

All businesses that want to be competitive when people search for them now need a local listing on the internet and should have a mobile presence as well.

If you haven’t “claimed” your Google listing, you are still in the majority. Most businesses have not – and should do so now.

Google has found you already. Just Google your business name and address.

What you need to do is verify your listing AND optimize it.

Connecting your local listing and a mobile listing can be done at the same time so that you are set up for both.

Fusing web, mobile and offline presence will help your business dominate the search results for your market.

If you haven’t verified your listing, we can help you do that and tell you how to use it most effectively.

If you have verified your business listing, chances are you have not optimized it by obtaining citations and reviews, placing pictures and video on the page, and securing the best keywords people use to find you.

We can help you optimize your listing by adding the content your page needs to dominate your market: business info, location, pictures, video (existing video you have available – there is an extra fee for us to create video for your business) and map. We will organize reviews for your business, add citations, and more.

Internet Marketing Advertising with Social Media?

By admin Leave a Comment

Social media interaction can mean different things to businesses. Some choose to use the platform for customer service and to announce news. Others want to focus on things like: building brand loyalty, networking, getting feedback, or deepening relationships. While the ultimate (social marketing) goal is to do more business, it is not about directly selling a product or service. Internet Marketing Advertising is different: it is social.

Whatever focus the business chooses, it is all about engagement: online conversations with people who are interested in some way about the product or service the business represents. What is important is to learn how to communicate with people inside the places they hang out online.

From Twitter to Facebook or youtube, to bookmarking communities or industry specific groups, there are many places to find prospective customers. The key point to understand is that social media is about being social, engaging in conversation, and providing value. Even though it is NOT about selling, there are some remarkable ROI results being documented.

Today, people want to find more information about products and services they are considering to buy because there is more of it available to access than ever before. They want to talk to other people in social sites they belong to about products or services they are interested in and get feedback from these people they trust, and they even want to connect directly with company personnel.

All of this is available today because of social media. There are CEO’s who are blogging and have Twitter accounts. Others are afraid of internet marketing advertising with social media. Companies have staff participating in conversation in social sites, some all day long. In fact, every day that a company or business does not participate in this new brand of marketing, is another day that their competition, national or local, gets ahead of them.

It is not enough to have a web site. An interactive presence is becoming a requirement. Part of the decision to start a social media system must include a commitment to be active with it. It won’t be effective if it is set up and forgotten.

Social media also includes blogs that are active with new posts and comments. Blogs, and forums also, exist for every market or industry and are great places that businesses can go to engage with people who have similar interests and to use them as a tool to gather a social following for their business.

This is accomplished by participating in the conversation in these blogs and forums, being helpful by providing answers to questions and being part of the conversation. Each reply that is made contains a link back to the business website where people can go and begin to track what the business is doing.

When trying to understand the scope of social media, there are three types of destination sites: content sharing, content publishing, and social networking. Note the first two are centered around developing and syndicating the content, and the third involves people talking about the content. Valuable content is the only kind that will be rewarded with referrals and loyalty.

Businesses have taken notice of the explosive growth and influence of social media. There are daily success stories (just Google to find them). By participating in social engagement with the goal to ‘give’ and not to ‘sell’, companies and brands who are active in their efforts are reporting very successful results.

Let’s get back to the original question posted: Why should a business have a social media marketing system in place? One of the most prominent reasons would be that, even though social media is not about selling, is not about internet marketing advertising, it does give a business the opportunity to reach a target audience that are potential buyers or re-buyers of their product or service.

Another important consideration is in regard to the other way that people look for a business online: through the search engines. Part of social media involves maintaining a website that gets updated with new content often. Search engines reward that. Also, search engines Google are now giving the sites like Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, bookmarking sites and others, first page listings.

A social media system should also be integrated with the business’s overall marketing and communication strategies because they can promote each other. Offline advertising can point viewers to the online presence, and the social ‘word of mouth’ component in communities online can spread quickly and become very powerful in many places both online and offline.

The bottom line is that social media marketing has benefits that can no longer be ignored. First page listings of a business website, or its blog or social site, in Google and other search engines can bring lots of new visitors to a business website. Social engagement for business online is already proven, and is the marketing of the present and the future.

It is worth repeating the fact that social media is primarily about engaging with people through content the business provides (written, audio, video), giving value to the conversations taking place online, and not contain a sales pitch. Content that educates, enlightens, or entertains, will lead people to what the business represents.

Giving someone a reason to want to hear more from the business (valuable content), making it easy for them to find the business, building their trust and loyalty, and ‘caring’ – can deliver massive success to a social media marketing system.

Search Engine Marketing Rank

By admin Leave a Comment

Today, we are constantly being invited to visit a business website. Personal invitations, and even advertising a website address, will not deliver massive results most of the time. A large amount of traffic to websites has its origin in search engine placement marketing. The internet is driven by people searching on search engines, and business websites are doing all they can to be rewarded with the top spots on the first page of Google and other search engines.

It doesn’t matter if you do business online or not, if you own a business you should still establish a web presence. People are going to the internet for the same business information that they used find at home in the yellow pages of their phone book or in a local newspaper.

You can increase your client base with a website. More people are using the internet to shop, in addition to finding information, than ever before. Having a website and a blog will help people find you and your services, and aid in your search engine placement marketing.

Today, your website is as important as your business card. More than likely people are going to forget where they put your business card. They can forget your phone number. If they have your web address, they can bookmark it and have it always available.

Your website puts you in touch with your customers. You can let them know of activities, classes, sales and many other happenings through your website or blog. The constant updates and supply of new content is part of search engine placement marketing because it is what the search engines reward.

People do business with people they trust. Search engines give top rankings to websites that they trust. Working to be an authority in your market is critical to search engine placement marketing. Search engines see too many websites with no valuable content, no new information, and many times no contact information for the business. These are not ways that visitors to your website or search engines can learn to know, like, and trust you.

We live in a world where it is beneficial for a business to have an online presence. We have the opportunity to build our website, implementing search engine placement marketing in the form of blogs, articles, videos, and more, into a successful business that earns significant income.
