Keeping Pace with Business Marketing
By YC Ng
Today's marketing rules are different than they were in years past. Those rules that once focused predominantly on local and regional marketing have now gone global, thanks in large part to the creation of the Internet. Internet technology has brought the world closer together and nowadays, it's just as easy to conduct across the globe as it is to conduct across town.
If you want your to stay afloat in today's highly competitive environment, you've got to understand these changes and bring your marketing strategies into the twenty-first century.
Every owner knows that it's imperative to have a company web site, but what many don't fully understand is how to use this tool to maximize the company's exposure. You know your web site is out there on the Internet, but do others? If they don't, your web site won't do you or them any good. You've got to let others know it exists. That's right - marketing rule #1 is to advertise your web site address using all available resources. Put the URL on every piece of promotional material
you publish - on your company stationery, on every employee's card, on your signature line - include it everywhere you mention your company name.
Another way to increase your company's web site exposure is to take steps to increase its ranking within the various search engines. Creating useful keyword-rich content with links to your website is a great way to accomplish this goal. If you don't understand keywords and search engines, hire someone who does. It will be marketing money well-spent.
While you're taking steps to build and promote a powerful web site, be sure what you do and say on the web site remains consistent with the marketing efforts already in place. Also, your web site should be another tool that new and existing customers can use to communicate with your company. Not only will this facilitate communication between various time zones, it's a more cost-effective way to communicate.
One marketing rule that has not changed is the importance of knowing what your competitors are up to. Visit your competitors' web sites regularly and if they're good at keeping its content current, you'll be able to keep abreast of their latest developments and other news-worthy items.
In many ways, the Internet has made marketing easier. Understanding how to use it to your company's advantage is good advice.
