Although we all at this point understand the value of digital marketing, that isn’t meant as a reason to dismiss the power or local listings. No matter how much we get invested in technology, spending time on our smart phones and computers, the outside world does still exist, and we need to get into it at some point in the day, exposing us to the old world tactics that are still highly effective when it comes to marketing, and ignoring this aspect could be detrimental to your marketing.
Think Local
Unless you start out with a product or service that calls for nationwide or worldwide coverage, your local demographic is still your most important market to consider. This is the foundation, the launching pad on which the rest of your campaign will be set, and bringing the right targeting to your local area can provide a significant boost to your business awareness. We all love to support our local neighbors, and when people in your home city or home state are aware of your business, they will rally to support it if their needs are met by the services and products you offer.
Physical Advertising
Though social media and online marketing may be a huge boon to your business, this doesn’t mean you should dismiss the effective means of local physical marketing. Even when sitting at a bus stop, waiting for your ride, head down in your phone, you eventually look around for the bus. Your eye catches an ad poster and lingers enough to read the pitch line. You may find yourself away from cell reception or away from your digital devices. All of these different aspects represent opportunities, and capitalizing on them is the sign of a strong integrated campaign.
Digitally Local
You can also link the power of local physical advertising with an effective digital campaign. Through the right series of SEO or AdWords, you can specifically target your local demographic and build a campaign that puts your nearby clients first. When choosing a locally targeted marketing campaign, you can specifically seek out your chosen demographic and bring greater awareness to your business where it counts the most. Ceresco Consulting brings you all the necessary services to make a local campaign effective for you.
Proper Targeting
A large share of effective sales and marketing is knowing how to boost awareness among potential clients and customers. You must understand your key demographics and the members of your key markets. There are many different means by which you can do this effectively, and Ceresco Consulting is ready to help.
