Blend Email With Other Marketing Strategies!

The concept

Whether you choose to do your marketing online or offline one thing does not change: The concept that no single marketing strategy will be as effective as utilizing a blend of two or more marketing strategies. This does not mean that it is necessary to implement every known marketing strategy to promote your business; but rather, it implies that it’s worthwhile to market from a few different perspectives in order to help achieve business-related goals.

In this article we will take a look at the viability, need and practicality of combining email marketing with other types of marketing to create a successful, multi-tiered marketing strategy and in addition, offer a few observations on managing more than one marketing strategy simultaneously in the hopes that they will prove useful to you in your Web marketing efforts.

The adage

There is an old adage which states that, “Two heads are better than one,” and this could certainly be applied to a multi-pronged approach to Web marketing; because although you may enjoy a great deal of success with your current email marketing efforts it does not mean you should refuse to try other types of Web marketing strategies such as, website creation, participation in industry-related message boards, placing banner ads on your website(s), orchestrating an affiliate marketing campaign and generating inbound links to .

It is important to keep in mind that, while the possibility exists that not all of these strategies will be effective for your business, the liklihood that at least one other option which complements your email marketing will help you to achieve your business-related goals. But there is only one way to actually test the blend of marketing types, and that is to test each one in a methodical fashion simililar to the kind of “split testing” that proved to be so effective for many marketers a decade or so ago, and is still utilized by marketers to evaluate the effectiveness of their marketing strategies.

The offline factor

Alternately you even wish to combine your email marketing campaign with more traditional marketing strategies such as radio ads, television ads and the print media. Let’s face it, just because these types of advertising do not take place the Web does not mean they will be ineffective in helping you generate more business and profits.

In fact advertising both online and offline can allow you to reach a larger audience to which you can target your advertising. This is especially true in view of the fact that you can reach Web users around the world, but reaching potential customers who do not utilize the Web for purchasing or researching products or services similar to the ones you offer can only be accomplished using offline marketing strategies.

A powerful statement

Popular marketing strategies to combine with email marketing include banner ads and message board participation, but these are all online activities and each one individually is fairly simple. However, in combination these simple activities can create a powerful statement, in the sense that when you send out emails offering useful information about your products or services, while simultaneously purchasing banner ad space on with content which may also be of interest to your potential customers, you can earn the respect and pique the interest of potential customers.

Furthermore, let’s say you add a third marketing strategy like participation in industry-related message boards. When done right this could well be a powerful representation of your business, even if your potential customers are not currently in need of the products and services you offer; because seeing your business name so often will most likely have a branding effect that is credible and positive in their minds. And branding, which is essentially a process during which consumers see a company name so often that they are more likely to select a product from this company when they are in need of an item the company offers, will go a long way in boosting your reputation and customer base.

The caveat emptor mindset

Of course you must approach your experiment in blending marketing strategies with a “Caveat Emptor” mindset, because if you are planning to combine multiple forms of advertising, you should be aware that this might involve a degree of difficulty when evaluating the effectiveness of each marketing strategy.

This difficulty is especially true when the marketing strategies are implemented simultaneously. When using only one type of marketing strategy, you can generally attribute increases in sales or traffic to changes in the marketing strategy. However, when more than one type of marketing strategy is in effect, determining which strategy is producing the most success can be quite difficult.

Methodical work

But remember, this experiment must be done in a careful and methodical manner. Meaning that the best way this situation can be handled is by not making changes to more than one marketing strategy at a time. By doing so you will be able to pinpoint which changes produce an increase in sales or traffic. The methodical approach can also help you to determine when changes to your marketing strategy have a detrimental effect on your sales and traffic. However, if you are having difficulty determining which marketing strategy is most effective you can consider asking customers to answer survey questions and provide information as to how they learned about the products or services your business offers.

I recently viewed a video in which the presenter said, “there are two things you need to do in order to make money online. The first is to to promote and sell, and the second is to find an audience…” (a market) to sell that product (in this case product refers also to service) to. With that in mind the product can be your own which you developed and created yourself, or belonging to someone else, in which case you can get authorization from that person/vendor to promote and sell the product as an affiliate and get paid a percentage of the sale in the form of a commission.

The first part of this equation – finding a product to sell – has been made exceedingly easy over the two decades since the introduction of digital products – created and made available – via the WWW (World Wide Web), so anyone looking for can take his/her pick from among the vast numbers available in the eCommerce marketplace. It is the second part of the equation and all the various aspects of finding an audience, as well as the inherent challenges that must be dealt with in pursuading – friendly, though it may be – that audience to buy a product from you.

Traffic to your

Of course it is understood in most marketing circles that the first step in finding an audience is getting exposure for your product, which is another way of saying attracting Internet users, also referred to as traffic to your website or product page

In order to achieve this most basic of goals many Web marketers advertise their utilizing some of the more popular advertising resources such as Google AdWords, Facebook Ads, and Bing/Yahoo! Ads, while others utilize the more economical methods like Traffic Exchanges, Link Exchanges and Email Marketing Campaigns. A third category of website owner relies on their own SEO techniques and formatting directly on their sites to induce the search engines to place their site on the SERPs (search engine results pages) which they expect would gain the site maximum exposure.

The conversion principle

It is important to point out at this juncture that whether a owner succeeds in getting traffic that is costly, economical or free s/he must still convert that traffic into an audience that knows, trusts and likes who s/he is and what s/he represents (reputation and credibility) before that audience will buy a product s/he is promoting and selling. Therefore certain steps must be taken by the website owner in order to achieve this goal.

This is where the importance of conversion rates comes into play, along with the steps needed to convert visitors into buyers, and the skill with which to adebtly initiate and execute the conversion process. It is only then that a website owne, Web marketer, product owner or any other entity attempting to promote and sell a product that s/he will be successful in doing so.

The cold, hard cash factor

In the Ebook, 110 Bite-Sized Tips to Boost Website Conversion Rates, the author states that, “A lot of factors are involved with ensuring that visitors click on, and then actually buy items they see. There are many things you can do to get the most conversion rates possible which means those website views and random clicks actually turn into cold, hard cash (otherwise known as sales).” It is in the manner of this approach that an affiliate marketer or product owner shoud view the traffic that s/he manages to attract to a website or product page.

It is possible however, that many do not devote enough time and/or attention to this important aspect of selling products, while others simply ignore it altogether. If you are a member of either group today might just be your lucky day, because TPJaveton WebNet is giving away a free Bonus copy of the Ebook, 110 Bite-Sized Tips to Boost Website Conversion Rates, which will be a big help to you in your efforts to convert traffic into buying customers and money in your pockets.
