E-MARKETING
eMarketing, commonly known as an Internet marketing
tool, refers to 'how' businesses market their services
or products online. In this new age of technology, an
Internet presence directly affects the success of a
business. From an ecommerce site to an informational
site, eMarketing begins at your homepage.
Utilize a
Website
Every
website has one goal and that is to heighten the
interest of the reader. For the homepage to be an
effective eMarketing tool, web content needs to follow
the search engine optimized (SEO) techniques outlined by
search engine domains like Google and Yahoo. Once
landing on your site, the content will act as a sales
letter.
Whether
you operate a service or sell products, eMarketing is
more affordable than the traditional means of marketing.
Over 130,000,000 people surf the Internet daily. It
would take a hefty investment to reach this number of
people in the more traditional means of marketing.
Producing
a website that ranks well in the search engines, will
assist you in obtaining more visitors and visitors
easily convert into customers at a rather amazing rate.
Cost
Comparison
Printing
promotional material can be quite costly. With a
website, this cost is significantly lower because your
site eliminates the need for brochures or an abundance
of business cards. Instead of sending a new prospective
literature in the mail, re-direct them to your website.
It will guide potential customers through the basics of
your business.
Studies
show that the per-reader response rates of newspaper
advertisements are low. This is due to the number of
readers that scan over your add that really have not
interest in your services or products. Online readers,
however, are a direct result of search engines. These
people want to know more about your services or
products. The likelihood of turning visitors into
customers is higher.
Advertising Campaign
With
eMarketing, the cost of an advertising campaign is
drastically lower. The same rules apply but with less
effort. You'll need to locate your target market,
address their interest, and show how they can benefit.
Typical,
ezines or announcements serve as an eMarketing campaign
medium. Utilizing these mediums will improve your online
business. Here's how you can get started:
Ezines:
Ezines are nothing more than an electronic newsletter.
There are several services online that will assist you
in writing an ezine. But use caution! It's bad business
to send an ezine to someone who hasn't subscribed.
Announcements: Announcements are similar to a press
release. Using the electronic transfer of news to an
email box, you can announce new events, new services,
and new products a lot faster.
Hottest
eMarketing Tool
Today,
e-books are the hottest marketing tool of the Twentieth
Century. Once Internet Gurus grasp the concept of
selling their services or products with an e-book, the
market jumped. Adding an e-book to your tools of
eMarketing is a smart move.
E-books
consist of hidden links (as in, not apparent) that the
inexperienced e-book reader can't see. These links help
promote affiliate programs and sell your services or
products. The readers click through the e-book and find
themselves at your site.
E-books
are an eMarketing medium that needs careful planning. It
makes no sense to develop an e-book on dogs if you sell
household appliances. To be successful at eMarketing
with e-books, you need to write content related to your
business. For instance:
· Home
Improvement - How to Design a Kitchen
·
Accountant - How Small Businesses can Benefit From a CPA
· Web
Developer - How a Website Can Help
Bottom
Line
eMarketing has saved businesses thousands of advertising
dollars. It's an effective marketing tool that every
business should take advantage of. With a better
understanding of how eMarketing can help improve your
business, you can prepare for an eMarketing campaign
that will exceed all of your expectations.
