This is an absolutely essential practice for any digital marketer who knows how to execute their campaigns in a productive, cost-effective way. With a few simple tips, you can be doing the same in no time!
In this blog, we’ll walk you through the first steps every savvy digital marketer takes to ensure that they’re on target to hit all their marketing objectives. Get ready for revenue!
Know Your Digital Goals
The first step is clearly identifying which goals you want to achieve. Get specific. Do you want to increase brand awareness? Are you all about locking in leads? Do you want to establish a strong network of influencers that can help you be discovered? How about pushing engagement on social media?
Remember: even if the channel you’re considering is all the rage right now, it might not fit your brand. Always make informed decisions that directly relate to your company. Otherwise, your message won’t be delivered to its intended audience and you’ll have wasted time, effort and money.
Get Specific
Narrowing down your goals enables you to track meaningful data you can use to optimize your approach. Messages that are focused on a particular interest generally convert better, since your audience is able to connect to the message more directly. It’s important that the channels used and the messaging are designed specifically for your target audience. Trying to sell retirement plans on TikTok ads for example may sound like a good idea, especially since the platform is the talk of the town in marketing at the moment, but the retirement demographic is largely absent from this platform. This means it would be likely that your ad dollars would be wasted compared to another platform more common to that demographic.
So asking yourself a few critical questions will go a long way in saving time, money and frustration. The questions should be all about conversions.
- Does the message and channels used reach my intended audience?
- Is the channel sustainable and affordable within my company’s marketing budget?
- Do I have what’s needed to measure the success of the campaign?
- Does the marketing properly convey my brand and message?
- Am I reaching my audience at the right time and place?
