Social Media Integration with Website for Business Marketing

Your social media strategy is more than just a Facebook profile or Twitter feed. When executed correctly, social media is a powerful customer engagement engine and web traffic driver. It’s easy to get sucked into the hype and create profiles on every single social site. This is the wrong approach. What you should do instead is to focus on a few key channels where your brand is most likely to reach key customers and prospects.  Social media is about driving traffic whereas the website should be the hub channelizing the users in the right direction. If you use social media to keep your customers or clients apprised of your recent happenings and are actively managing your outlets on a daily or bi-weekly basis, it might be wise to showcase your Twitter feed or Facebook posts directly on your website. Linking out or displaying inactive social media channels will only cripple your online efforts. If you choose to go this route, it is important that you maintain your presence. It is important to be tactful with your social media choices and do your research before blindly forging into unknown territory. If you sell a product or run a full-fledged e-commerce site and you haven’t [...]

Business or Marketing: Which should you really be running?

As successful business and marketing coach Dan Kennedy says: “You are in the business of marketing, not in the business of carpet cleaning, selling furniture, selling services, etc.” We agree with this whole-heartedly. After all, you could be the very best in your industry, but without a steady flow of customers, your business will never grow. Marketing your business and bringing in new leads is the most important part of your business — if you have no clients then it doesn’t matter if you are the best at what you do!

How To Turn Website Traffic Into Leads

It’s the second step of our marketing funnel: Turning Website Traffic Into Leads. It’s one thing to convince people to visit your website. It’s another to actually turn these visitors into leads. Essentially, turning website traffic into leads means collecting contact details from visitors to your website so that you can continue to contact them once they leave your site, especially if they do not purchase immediately. (Precautionary note: No, you will not bombard them with a million advertisements shouting about your product once you obtain contact information. This is sticky marketing, remember, marketing that pulls your client in with carefully considered collateral that gives them valuable information and truly positions you as an attractive leader in your field, a company with which they will desire to do business.) The tricky part is: how do you collect contact details? These days, it seems that everywhere you turn, someone is attempting to get your contact information—email, phone number, etc. With this onslaught, people are becoming more cautious about where and to whom they hand out their personal information. Your website visitors must have a really compelling reason to give information to you. In exchange for their personal information, what will your [...]
