It is a Mistake to Focus Only on Online Marketing

January 22, 2019

 

There is no question about the success of online marketing. Several companies started from nothing and became successful because they knew how to maximise the platform. If you have a small business, you can also do the same strategy. Use social media to your advantage and partner with social media influencers. Respond to enquiries online and stay engaged with the people you are trying to win over.

You can also improve your website by making it mobile-device friendly and easy to navigate. Publish quality content that people will enjoy and convince them that your products are worth trying. You can work hard focusing on all these strategies, but it does not mean that you should rely only on a single platform to succeed.

Not everyone is online

Although a considerable percentage of the population is always online these days, it does not mean everyone is using their phone to search for information. Others still rely on platforms they are comfortable with. Old people, for instance, are not tech-savvy. If they are your target audience, you are making a tremendous mistake by not advertising offline. You are also making them feel that you do not care about them. They remain a huge segment of society, and they can help boost your popularity if you advertise to them.

Constantly remind people

When people see your ads both online and offline, you always remind them that your brand exists. You are also making them know that you are working hard to win their hearts. When people keep thinking about a product, they might decide to buy it even if they are still uncertain about it. Just think about those TV commercial jingles. They attract attention, and they make you believe in the product. Before you know it, you are already in a store buying the product even if you had no intention of doing it in the first place.

Use marketing tools wisely

Advertising on TV or radio is impossible for small business owners given how expensive the cost is. You can use other platforms like print media. Design a banner or a display stand and use it to advertise your product. You might have to spend on printing, but it is not as expensive as the cost to release a TV commercial.

Another benefit is that you are targeting local customers. The problem with online marketing is that it seems like you are throwing stones to everyone in the hope that someone will catch them. The ads seem impersonal and generic. When you use print ads, they are relatable. People will feel that you are talking directly to them. They will also appreciate that you are captivating their attention when they are not online.

The key is to diversify your marketing tactics. Even if you are successful with your online campaigns, it does not mean you should only rely on them to boost your business. When those campaigns fail, you will need to start over. However, with different marketing campaigns, you can continue advertising.
