Five Tips For Building An Effective Marketing Strategy
1. Determine the Target Audience
One of the most important aspects of a marketing strategy is to determine who the target audience is. This is one of the basic principles for a marketer to adhere by in shaping an abiding marketing strategy. By determining ones target audience, the next question should be what the expectations are for any new marketing strategy. For some, the principals have remained the same for decades and those include making money, learning something new and having fun doing it.
2. Create and document your strategy
Marketing departments are constantly revisiting or reevaluating marketing techniques or strategies but having a clearly outlined plan in place based on conditions of satisfaction, can help alleviate any miscommunication with vendors or staff, as well as keeping the entire team on the same page.
3. Make it personal
Before personalization became a brand in itself, marketing was always about making it personal. Keeping it personal is more of a challenge with marketing automation but the basics still prevail. In order to acquire and retain loyal customers, and keep followers engaged, personalized one-to-one marketing is no longer an option, but is a requirement.
4. Remember: Content is (still) king
Content marketing is marketing and it is rising to flood tide levels. However, good writing and developing quality content should become the rule, not the exception, regardless of industry. Content marketing has emerged from being a part of a marketing strategy to one of the core strategies, yet it can be time consuming when done in-house; meanwhile, if you outsource it, it can cost between $2,000-$20,000 per month. It’s important to determine what the team can manage and when to hire a specialist. Have a team member with graphic design experience? Keep that in-house. Need someone to write copy? Hire a copywriter.
5. Build marketing partnerships
Marketing partnerships have a number of benefits to push a marketing campaign and build alliances. For starters, when collaborating with someone else, enterprises tend to deliver better content. Additionally, marketing partnerships are cheaper to create, see success more quickly, and expose the brand to a new audience.
