Use every medium possible:

1. Use every medium possible:

Marketing Funnels

4. Marketing Funnels:

Having a marketing funnel to properly understand your consumer is a must. Multinationals like Unilever, Pepsi, Coke and P&G spend millions of Dollars each year to understand a consumer`s mindset and his/ her path to purchase.

Doing anything to attract consumers is tough, without truly understanding what he/ she wants.

Once you are able to identify your consumers correctly, the marketing funnel does something even more important – selling more to the same consumers. You can sell other variants/ flavours/ attachments/ anything else that you make once a consumer trusts you. You must focus on:

l Up selling

l Down selling

l Cross selling

l Lifetime value of a customer

l Customer churn

This applies to all your products whether it is a physical product that you ship or a digital service that you offer. You must have a complete track, from the visitor to the conversion point. This helps to generate the lifetime return value of the respective customer.

Quality still matters over quantity

5. Quality still matters over quantity:

Whether it`s a product or a service that you are selling – you need to differentiate yourself. A simple Google search for software, shoes, clothes, electronics or anything else will yield at least a few thousand websites.

Marketing will not always provide you with the best results.

Ex: Blogging is very popular in the digital world and has now become so repetitive that most of them display the same information again and again! Unless you work hard to get some new or unique information that people have never seen before – your content marketing will not work this year.

Think of ways to distinguish your products and to distinguish it in front of consumers.

Video Content

6. Video Content:

I bet you have heard a lot about this! Video is the future of digital marketing!!

People like to watch and listen to you rather than reading about you. Scientifically speaking, our brain finds it easier to listen and understand, than to read and understand what a person is talking about. Even top social media platforms like Facebook, Linkedin, Youtube also gives you mind blabbering views if your content is good.

Podcasts/ audiobooks are in!

7. Podcasts/ audiobooks are in!

Podcast are nothing but audio recordings. According to a study – 75% of the people who listen to podcasts have an annual income of over Rs 50 lakhs. That, is an elusive audience which is tough to catch!!

Many people like listening to podcasts as you can easily continue doing anything else, while paying attention to the speaker. With a video, people may sometimes feel like they may miss out on something if they do not see the visual – and hence prefer podcasts.

With the rise of audio searches (Alexa, Google Home, Siri), it is easier for your website to be found if it has podcasts embedded in it.
