Gamification for Marketing

by -

With the need for a fun, interactive approach to learning, gamification rises to the occasion. Whether it’s school based, or used for learning techniques in a trade, gamification takes an in-depth look at the different aspects of the techniques used for a particular area, and compares these techniques to easy-to-understand game references, making them much easier to understand and aiding in the overall comprehension of the subject. This Digital Marketing Agency article will serve as a gamified tutorial for marketing strategies, and hopefully aid in your comprehension of the overall foundation that new marketing techniques are based off of. To start, we will compare marketing to a fishing game, in which the user uses a fishing pole and bait in order to reel in and ultimately catch a fish.

Step 1: Bait (Create interest) :

The first step to any successful social media marketing agency campaign for a new product or service is to create interest in (or bait) new potential customers. By casting a line into the customer pool with bait such as advertisements or word of mouth, you create potential customers that are interested in learning more about your product or service. This is incredibly important, since without interest your product or service will ultimately fail.

Step 2: Wait (Allow time for the bait to attract attention) :

If customers are not immediately drawn to the bait that you have cast, there needs to be a waiting period. It is important to continue persevering onwards when launching a new product or service, as there are multiple ways of baiting customers. The initial bait, or advertisements, only reaches the audience that has viewed the advertisement. After this initial bait, the customers tend to talk about current products and services on the market, leading to other potential customers’ attraction to your product through word-of-mouth.

Step 3: Reel (Once you have attention, attract the customer) :

When you have gained the attention of a customer, it is time to reel them in. This is done in a few ways, such as allowing the customer access to an online website where they are able to read reviews and more information about the product. When this website has been made user-friendly, the customer feels at-ease with the product, and when the customer is satisfied with the knowledge they have about the product or service, it is time to catch them!

Step 4: Catch (The customer purchases the product or service) :

The fourth step is the goal that every other step has been leading to. Once the customer has gained sufficient knowledge about the product or service, it is time to pull them into the boat (or your customer base.) An informed customer is a happy customer, so make sure there are plenty of outlets for the customer to gain more information about your product or service. Once you have achieved a sale, continue baiting other customers, as well as the customer that you have already gained. It is a good business strategy to have a product or service that customers will want to re-visit and buy again, because your overall revenue stream is substantially increased.

Hopefully this guide as a part of our Social Media Marketing Agency methodology furthered your understanding of the basis of all marketing techniques. Bait, wait, reel and catch the customer to make a sale, and your marketing technique has effectively worked!

Using Twitter Strategically For Marketing

by -

With its wide reach and the variety of users, businesses, customers and differing marketing sectors that it hosts, marketers have turned to twitter because if used in a strategic manner it can prove to be extremely viral and the only cost to any marketing campaign will be in the form of content creation [images, videos, tweets] and analysis. With that said, getting results from any marketing campaign execution may not be as easy as it seems on the surface. Using twitter from a strategic marketing perspective will help companies maximize their use of twitter for business, branding, product and services promotion purposes.

Here are a few tips to assist in marketing & promoting one’s business strategically on twitter …

Track keywords : Some keywords on twitter grab more attention than others. Therefore, it is very important that you identify these popular keywords and use them in your tweets. Twitter keywords will grab the attention of potential and existing customers. Use those searches to your advantage.

Save and reuse popular tweets : Saving and reusing popular tweets is a good way to market on twitter. This can be achieved by saving those tweets that sent traffic to your website and drove your bandwidth outside the realm of probabilities. At times, some people who are interested may not have seen the tweet the first time.

Add followers : This is a good way of using twitter strategically for marketing as it will help you find new people to expose your product or service to. Before adding followers, it is important that you decide on a niche [or market sector] and then look for key targeted market sectors to communicate with. Follow the key influencers in your market sector and then start following some of their followers.

It is also a good practice to follow back anyone who follows you but with some obvious exceptions. Doing this will slowly but surely increase your followers. Tools like WeFollow and Twellow can help you find like-minded people to follow on twitter.

Keep it social : Always remember that twitter is not a classified posting site and you cannot use it to post ads per se but one can of course use the advertising platform and provide quality content to lead prospects through a specific marketing funnel. Your account can be terminated if is found out that you are using it for spamming purposes. Therefore, focus on providing information, latest news, and useful updates.

Strategic Tweeting : One question that we often pose to clients in seminars and workshops is “what is the best time of the day to tweet” ? to which we receive various fixed times; the answer is “it depends”. To determine the answer to this question will necessitate …

  • posting content using varying hashtags
  • post related subject matter
  • monitor engagement

… based on the complex interaction of all three above – we will come up with just when is the best time[s] of the day to tweet. This of course will continue to change as the market [needs of the customer] changes along with that which is in the news.

Build relationships to establish trust : Remember that people are far more likely to buy from someone they know and trust. Make friends first and then offer your products or services after establishing a relationship with your followers.

The strategic tweeting, following, connecting with influencers, keeping things social and other [what we consider to be] twitter marketing fundamentals are all part of Capid Houser’s Digital Marketing Makeover service offering. This works in conjunction with other aspects of social media marketing, video marketing, image marketing as well as search engine marketing all designed to promote and marketing companies along with its brand, products and services.

digital marketing return on investment

by -

As we are well and truly in the age of Digital and Social Media Marketing which of course includes many sub Digital Marketing channels such as …

  1. Video Marketing
  2. Email Marketing
  3. Blogging
  4. Article Marketing
  5. Podcasting

… and more; which in many cases has been seen to leave behind the use of that which was deemed to be the more traditional forms of marketing such as Radio, Television, Yellow Pages, Newspapers, Flyers, Billboards and Magazines.

Take the case of when a company invests a significant amount of money in getting an ad posted on a billboard on say one of the main roads in a particular city. hundreds of even thousands of cars may drive past that ad within any given day and from that quantity of individuals the company is betting that there will be some people interested in the products and/or services behind marketed. The message of the billboard may prompt some people to call a phone number, send in an email or maybe visit a nearby store and make a direct purchase. Of the purchases made locally one can never really determine if those purchases were made due to the presence of billboard ad therefore providing the company with data on the campaigns effectiveness.

Considering the above scenario you; the reader may apply the same logic to all of the [previously] traditional forms of advertising and marketing and ask yourself whether or not the company can ever really get a true value on measuring the effectiveness of the campaign.

digital marketing methods and techniques

by -

One of the most common questions we are asked is that of …

“what is it that you do on a monthly basis for your clients in terms of Social Media & Search Engine Marketing activities ??”

… we have set out to provide a comprehensive guideline within our Social Media and Search Engine Marketing Primer which is available as a free download for anyone who is interested.

Let’s first consider ‘Search Engine Marketing which normally forms a key service offering of any Digital Marketing Agency. This is driver by the internet as indicated by the keywords that potential [or existing] clients or those interested in related products and services type into the search engines. This of course is changing on a less than second by second basis. The objective here is to put our clients in a position so that when one is looking for whatever they have to offer, they come across content that directly or indirectly leads back to the company, its main website or other primary internet presence. This is a key point as the company website many well not be the first place that one encounters your company, its brand or products and services. Therefore a key part of the daily activities is creating and publishing content related to the keywords we spoke of above and positioning this content accordingly so that consumers will follow through to take whatever action we devise [exchanging an email address of other contact information is a tried and tested way to bring clients into the marketing funnel].

Next we can turn our attention to Social Media Marketing which is driven by comments, likes, interests, groups and conversations – the content of which gives us an indication of what it is that the user has an interest in and allows us to join any existing conversation, start new topics and groups all with the objective of building communities around products and services, build the equity of the brand, drive internet traffic, build a database and ultimately drive sales and revenues. People spend a great deal of time within the social media networks giving their thoughts and feelings which related to their experiences with companies along with the products and services that they may purchase. All of the social media ‘chatter has evolved into a sub digital marketing channel that has been proven to pay back in dividends and enables companies to reach out to clients in ways that they were not able to do just a few short years ago.

Whether or not you are planning to make use of Social Media and Search Engine Marketing services that Capid Houser has to offer, you may wish to become familiar with the processes and fundamentals behind the work that we carry out on behalf of clients.

digital channel marketing

by -

Channel Marketing within the Digital Marketing context is something that we here at Capid Houser think should be considered and dealt with from a top level strategic business perspective as more and more companies look to stamp their presence within the Digital Marketing realm which of course consists of many varying aspects such as …

  • Video Marketing
  • Podcasting
  • Email Marketing
  • Blogging
  • Press Releases
  • Social Media
  • Search Engine Marketing

… and of course there are many other tools that any company can use within their Digital Marketing Mix.

Channel Marketing fundamentals says that a retail outlet, coffee shop, beauty salon, car showroom, distribution outlets can be termed as Channels to Market. We can then look at the total realm of Digital Marketing as a Channel to Marketing and then the list above may be viewed as sub Digital Marketing Channels.

This leads us on to the topic of developing digital marketing campaigns and connecting any internet marketing activity to its intended target market segment via appropriate sub Digital Marketing Channels. The question that continually needs to be addresses and answered by a Digital Marketing Agency that is developing and executing Social Media, Search Engine Marketing Campaigns and more for its end user clients is how can on a continuous [say monthly] basis refine the message of our clients to make it relevant for the target clients. This will serve any marketing campaign in terms of engagement and ultimately culminating in building a [potential] client database for future marketing purposes.

The Channel Marketing fundamentals when carefully applied to Social Media, Search Engine Marketing, Video Marketing and the whole Digital Marketing mix from the campaign development stage right through to the continuous execution will result in more efficient internet marketing activities that will serve to build the brand equity of any corporation, brand or organisation. Attract potential clients into the marketing funnel and lead to more repeat business and revenue generation which of course is one of the key purposes of the process of the function of marketing.
