Using Managed Email Marketing at Christmas

| Marketing | December 21, 2010

Using Managed Email Marketing at Christmas
By Ben Greenwood
Christmas is a busy period for shoppers and all of them will be
out for a bargain, meaning you as a business can take advantage
of this by offering a great deal and boosting your sales
dramatically. But what is the best way to go about achieving
this?
Not all companies have the budget for a TV or radio commercial.
You could turn to direct mail but that can be slow and often
goes unread. Email, on the other hand, is the perfect option for
a company on a budget looking to maximise the sales potential of
a Christmas campaign.
Better yet, using a company who offer managed email marketing
services will mean you don’t have to spend hours on that part,
you can focus on fulfilling the orders that are sure to come
your way.
You should plan to start your Christmas email marketing
campaign early. Late November and December may be the time you
see most sales, but the majority of people start thinking about
Christmas much earlier. Getting your very generous special offer
in front of them then could have them sold on your product well
before anyone elses.
You should also consider running it well past Christmas, to mid
or late January, as there will be people waiting for the
Christmas and New Year sales rush to die down before picking up
the late bargains.
Make your offer easy to remember too. Christmas is a busy time
for everyone so having a long running, simple offer is better
than several shorter period ones. You’ll pick up far more sales
with a generous, long term, memorable campaign.
Now we get into the nitty gritty of email campaigns – timing,
compatibility, design and testing.
A managed email marketing campaign through a specialist company
will be able to advise you on this to ensure you get the best
from your campaign, but there are some things you should
consider from the start.
First of all, timing – a lot of people will have half days in
the run up to and during Christmas so it might be better to send
your emails early in the morning. You don’t want to harass
people with your campaign either, so how often do you email
them? It will depend on your campaign but once or twice a week
at the most should be enough, though you can increase that
slightly towards the end of your campaign.
Compatibility means ensuring your email can be read in the
various different email providers and readers – Outlook,
Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo etc – and your managed email services
company will make sure that happens.
The design of your marketing email should be carried out by a
proper designer and should contain your offer and your call to
action clearly and obviously. Nothing will put off a potential
buyer more than a poorly designed email or one that doesn’t ‘get
to the point’ – again, especially around Christmas, people are
busy!
Finally, there is testing to be done. Split testing, or A/B
testing as it is sometimes known, is a way for you to send two
slightly different emails to two different groups and se which
performs better. Then you can resend the most successful email
for even greater sales.
Testing your email marketing campaign at several stages will
ensure you get the most from your Christmas email campaign. Your
managed email marketing company will be able to do this for you
and report on the results so you can make informed decisions
throughout the life of the campaign.
Happy Christmas selling!

Website Design With Your Success in Mind

| Marketing | December 21, 2010

Website Design With Your Success in Mind
By George Meszaros
The Internet is the fastest growing marketplace in the history
of humanity. Startups and established businesses are making the
Internet part of their overall strategy. Unfortunately, some
people still believe that websites are necessary evils best left
to their nephews to design. The problem with such a website that
it tells the world that we don’t really care about the Internet.
It also says that we are willing to do the bare minimum.
Successful companies understand that it is best to hire
professionals to perform crucial business tasks. They understand
that not only lawyers and accountants perform crucial tasks.
They know that web designers perform a crucial service for their
business. Professionals will build your website to create the
best possible image for your company. Along the way they can
help you with other aspects of your marketing materials such as
your company logo, brochure, catalog, trade show booth, and
more.
Great websites are much more than an esthetically appealing
designs. They are about telling a story about your services,
focusing on what matters to your customers. Describe what pain
points of your clients can you help? Your website should have
excellent content. It is also essential for your content to be
unique to your website. People want to read original content on
your website. Don’t copy or repost content from other website,
and if you do, add your own thoughts to it. It is OK to write
about something you saw on another websites as long as you add
your own ideas to the post.
As you build your website, always ask yourself this question
“Is this content going to differentiate our business from our
competitors?” If not, stop and work until you can add something
that will make a difference. You are an expert in your area of
business and there are many ways you can turn your expertise
into great content. For example you could write white papers,
how to’s, tutorials, articles, reviews and more.
Excellent content also helps you with improving your search
engine rankings. Many people think that SEO (Search Engine
Optimization) is all about manipulating the search engines. They
are wrong. SEO is more about developing great website content
than anything else. Have great website content and the search
engines will love you for it. There are other areas of SEO that
are crucial to your search engine rankings such as link
building. The more websites link to your website the more
valuable your website becomes in the eyes of the search engines.
Think of a link as a vote of confidence. The most popular
websites have many incoming links pointing to them.
Your business can succeed with a great web presence. Hiring a
professional web designer will increase your chances for
success. They can help you with creating a professional looking
design with an easy to use navigation. The professional help you
get from them will have a significant impact on your business.
If you want to differentiate yourself from the competition
online, your first step is a professional website.

5 Ways to Differentiate Your Business Online

| Marketing | December 21, 2010

5 Ways to Differentiate Your Business Online
By George Meszaros
Most businesses struggle to differentiate themselves for the
competition. Why not use your website to stand out. A great
website can help you establish yourself as the leader of your
market. Any business can have, regardless of their revenue, a
Fortune 500 web presence. With over 100 million domains
registered you must do more than put any website online, you
have to have an online strategy.
There is no successful online strategy without the following:
Content – Good website content doesn’t end with an “About Us”
or a “Contact Us” page. You must have great content. Not some
boring sales pitch that people never really believed. Content
must be unique and useful information to your target market.
Don’t be afraid of giving information away. Even if you are a
lawyer that charges by the hour for your expertise, you will
have a better website when you include expert advice. Your
website is NOT an online brochure. It is a source of valuable
information.
Update – Have an outdated website? Don’t think that people that
look at your website don’t know that it is out of date. An out
of date website show your market that you are too busy. If you
are too busy you don’t want any more business. Your website has
to be updated frequently. Frequent means several times each
month, not several times per year. The best websites are updated
several time per day. Your website should be built with a CMS
(Content Management System) that enables you to edit each page
of your website without any programming skills. Your website
should include information about what is happening at your
company such as new products/services, management changes, trade
shows and other trade events, press releases, how to’s, anything
and everything that would be of value to your market.
Expert – Your website makes you an expert. The great content
you include in your website will position you above others,
elevating you to expert level. Your prospects would rather buy
from an expert than from a sales person. We tend to trust
experts more than sales people. Your website should do more to
position you as an expert instead of trying to be your online
sales person. Include, expert advice, white papers, research
results, awards, accomplishments, accolades, everything that
will tell the world that you are an expert at what you do.
SEO – Search engine optimization is often misunderstood. Some
people think it is about manipulating the search engines. They
are wrong. SEO is about optimizing your website and always
adding new and unique content to your website. SEO is more about
great content than anything else. SEO also involves getting
other websites link to your website. When you have great content
it is a lot easier to get others to link to you than a website
with boring content. Your content should include relevant
keywords. As you develop your content keep in mind what keywords
you are targeting.
Easy – The old way of updating your website is contacting your
webmaster and ask her to make the changes. It a slow and
inefficient way to update website. That is the reason most
website are out of date and contain old information. A CMS
website empowers you to update your website as frequently as you
would like. When updating is easy it is much more likely to
happen than updating the old fashioned way. If you want 100%
control over your website content, you must have a CMS website.

Retail Marketing and Customer Loyalty Programs

| Marketing | December 21, 2010

Retail Marketing and Customer Loyalty Programs
By Adriana Notton
Creating customer loyalty is very beneficial to a retail
enterprise. Standard retail marketing techniques have arisen
that encourage customer loyalty. Customer loyalty programs range
from simple paper punch cards to sophisticated credit card like
membership cards that can be swiped. It appears that everyone is
getting into the customer loyalty thing. You cam find programs
in your local tiny latte bar to the major commercial chains.
The customer loyalty programs go by many different names.
Loyalty card, rewards card, points card, advantage card, or club
card are the most common names used. Notwithstanding what they
are called, they all work in a very similar way. A card that
looks a lot like a credit card is issued. These cards have a
magnetic strip or a bar code that can be scanned into the
store’s point of sale system.
Most people are used to calling these systems a cash register
but the technology makes this a misnomer. It is a point of sale
system which is an integrated computerized commercial sales
payment management system that operates over a network. This
system is integrated with inventory systems, merchandise
restocking systems, sales commission systems and other systems.
Loyalty card holders are given discounts, special deals and are
eligible for contests and promotions. Card holders will also
receive emails containing coupons and special discounts and
special deals. The store will conduct online surveys to compile
customer feedback. The survey will include a contest which offer
cash prizes for customers who complete the online survey.
Almost all the major commercial outlets are offering these type
of card club loyalty programs. Customers certainly appreciate
them and they are very beneficial to the commercial business.
Even smaller local commercial stores are sponsoring these types
of programs. Restaurants also are beginning to organize loyalty
clubs. Just about any type of commercial business can use this
type of structured loyalty marketing programs. In addition to
issuing the credit card style loyalty club card, businesses
issue smaller key cards, which are small cards that can be
conveniently hooked to a keyring.
Owners of commercial sales outlets have an ulterior motive in
issuing these cards besides increasing sales. Because the cards
communicate with the store’s point of sale computer systems,
their databases can track each individual’s purchases. This
enables the commercial sales operation to target ads
specifically to the purchasing habits of individual card
holders. Inventory can be more efficiently managed. This
benefits both the commercial sales outlet and the customer since
the customer is getting the products they want and the business
is increasing sales.
There have been ethical questions raised about the predominance
of the loyalty cards. Privacy issues are frequently discussed
concerning these marketing techniques. However, the customer is
not coerced into joining the loyalty club. In addition,
customers clearly benefit from receiving discounts, lower prices
and being notified when products they are interested in are
available.
There is no question that these customer loyalty programs are a
permanent part of retail marketing. Not only are they found in
the traditional brick and mortar commercial sales outlet stores
but they are widely employed in e-commerce internet sales as
well. It is expected that these marketing techniques will only
grow more sophisticated in the future.

What You Should Consider Regarding Developing IPad Apps

| Computers and Technology | December 21, 2010

What You Should Consider Regarding Developing IPad Apps
By Adriana Notton
There are several ways to make money developing iPad apps.
First, you must develop your application quickly once you come
up with a good idea. Write down all of the details and get a
developer to create it for you if you don’t have this
background. But remember, there is a lot of competition when it
comes to creating new applications. You have to make sure yours
is different and fun to use.
There are many teams that make these applications for a living.
The create hundreds of applications in a month. It is important
to consider the current competition. You must be familiar with
what is out there and make something different. You must make it
very visual. After you have written out your program you should
also draw it in full detail. This can be done by hand or by
using a computer software program.
But there are many success stories of independent applications
that have been purchased by iPad. There are many people that are
making good money doing this. But you must move quickly to get
your product on the market. This is a very fast moving
industries. People come up with similar ideas all of the time.
You must create a program that will appeal to a large audience.
The price point should not be too high. But it is important that
the price is high enough to make a good profit. You should
investigate the market and see how other programs are priced.
The novelty programs for these media devices are popular
sellers. These are usually silly apps that become madly popular
among certain groups. Teens in particular take to the novelty
programs. You should look into the popular novelty programs and
try to come up with one of your own. This will take some
creativity and familiarity with the marketplace.
Make sure you creating something that uses iPad’s wide screen
and all the other features. The funnier the program is, the more
popular it will be. Think about your audience and the kind of
applications they would like to see on their screen. It is
important to think about every aspect of the web-app.
There is a lot of money to be made in this industry. But
careful and methodic planning is necessary. You do not have to
have programming skills to develop great applications. All you
need is the idea. Marketing the application is also very
important. As long as you target the correct audience, then you
will be successful. It is a good idea to also test the market
with your application before trying to sell it to the company.
Before you begin developing iPad apps, think about how your
web-app will be of value to the end use. You must make sure to
target a specific audience. There are some things you should
consider such as the functional goal of the web-app. You should
have a clear idea of what you want the application to
accomplish. It should fulfill a certain need that is not
currently being met in the marketplace.
