Marketing
In the digital age, websites are the hub of the communications framework for businesses, as the primary task of most marketing activity undertaken is to drive traffic to the website. This is especially so with eCommerce websites where the whole business model is built around converting visitor traffic to sales. However the objective of driving traffic to the website as the key staging post on the pathway to purchase is the same for all business, whether eCommerce or Information based sites
one vital ingredient: Joined Up Communications
A fully joined up marketing process will be at the front end, building market presence to make the initial connections in a way that motivates people to want to visit the website to learn more about what the business does and why they should buy from them. It will also provide a mechanism to keep communicating with customers to extend the relationship to ensure they become repeat buyers and secure a larger share of their spend.
What we think
So what does a fully joined up process look like and how can you cut through the ever-increasing noise as more businesses fight to be heard and to win work. The days of Attention based marketing, with the goal of literally grabbing their attention have disappeared with the advent of the internet and its emergence to the dominant position it has in most people’s lives and purchasing decisions. 90% of all purchases now start online (Forrester Research).
The key to unlocking markets and increasing sales in todays market is about being found, when people are looking to buy. The traditional model of being seen repeatedly and this ensuring recall at the point where people are thinking of buying always assumed a high level of waste – and required big budgets, that only big brands could afford.
