Basic of Web Marketing

Internet marketing is about giving—rather than getting—attention; and anyone working online should think about harnessing this potent tool, given what it can do for a business. A complement to traditional marketing, Internet marketing supports and enhances a company’s overall message by providing comprehensive information about a particular product or service, as well as answers to consumers’ questions. Internet marketing also exploits the Web’s networking capabilities by leveraging online community activities, links, affiliate marketing, viral marketing, e-mail marketing, and loyalty programs. In considering Internet marketing, keep a few key points in mind:

• Visitors coming to a Web site are already aware of the brand. They want information.
• Use Internet technology to understand your customers’ needs so you can offer them just the right information and products.
• Remember that the Internet empowers consumers, and dissatisfied ones may use its networking capabilities to undermine your brand.

Marketing Strategies for small business

Small businesses typically have a limited marketing budget if any at all. Does that mean you can't run with the big dogs? Absolutely not. It just means you have to think a little more creatively. How about launching your marketing campaign by doing one of the following:

• Call your vendors or associates and ask them to participate with you in co-op advertising.
• Take some time to send your existing customers' referrals and buying incentives.
• Have you thought about introducing yourself to the media? Free publicity has the potential to boost your business. Position yourself as an expert in your field.
• Invite people into your store by piggybacking onto an event. What about a concert coming to town, willing to sell those tickets for them? If not, how about a walkathon that is taking place in your area, why not be public outreach and distribute their material?

When you do spend money on marketing, don't forget to create a way to track those marketing efforts. You can do this by coding your ads, using multiple toll-free telephone numbers, and asking prospects where they heard about you. This enables you to notice when a marketing tactic stops working. You can then quickly replace it with a better choice or method.
