If you think you need a lot of money to succeed in marketing your business, then you may want to change your mind set. Marketing or advertising your business is not all about money, it’s about being creative. Money can indeed put you into billboards, TV commercials and online ads, but creativity and knowledge can take you anywhere. Here are some useful and simple tips to market your business if you’re on a budget.
• The Power of Social Media!
According to The Pew Survey, conducted in the year 2014, more than 52% of Internet users regularly logged on to at least two social networks. Such popular social media networks are Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and Reddit. So any business that does not post on at least one platform, like Facebook, Twitter or Instagram is losing out. Many businesses have used these social media networks to reach their customers and communicate with potential buyers/clients. Besides, it’s free! The investment you just need is time!
• Flyers and Brochures
Brochures and flyers still help in promoting businesses especially on your business area. It's a way of introducing a kind and decent business image to the people around you, and be aware of what type of products or services you have. Just a quick tip, make sure that your flyer or brochure is catchy, has an engaging and precise advertising message.
• Start an Email Campaign
Make sure that your customers keep coming back to you by sending email campaigns with helpful link baits or coupon/special deal. This will keep your previous customers interested in your products and services. But always keep in mind, that too many emails may turn-off a customer. To make sure this does not happen, schedule your campaign every other month.
• Register on Google My Business
No matter how small or big your business is, you may want to register it to Google My Business. It puts your company info on Search, Maps and Google+. It only takes a few minutes to register and it's free.
• Advertising using LED signs
LED signs offer advertising opportunities for small businesses. Using scrolling or programmable LED sign, you can showcase products and services, as well as keep your advertising fresh and in real time for new and existing customers. LED signs are best to use in restaurants and coffee shops.
