You just can’t beat catchy and original web content when it comes to marketing your business. It doesn’t matter if you’re on the Fortune 500, a small auto dealership, or the owner of five franchise restaurants: compelling online information is crucial. As you may already know, there are many ways to deliver this to your target audience: blogs/articles, informative email newsletters, Facebook posts, and beyond.
Of course, this leaves one important question: How does such content lead to business conversions?
Blog Content: How to Make it Profitable for Your Business
Blogs are perhaps the best way to hook your potential customers/clients by establishing yourself as a recognizable expert in a given area.
Then again, even if you don’t write the most interesting content, it’s still worth your while to notify your local audience what you bring to the table. Something as simple as a “Grand Opening” announcement can go a long way.
What are some best ways to maximize the utility of your blogs?
- Create Strong Headlines: normally within about six to eight words
- Use active verbs (rather than passive tense)
- Select relevant keywords for SEO purposes
- Use short-form blogs to answer pressing consumer questions
- Consider long-form blogs to demonstrate subject-matter-expertise
- Get to the point fast if you want a legitimate chance at conversions
Social Media Posts: Not Just Random Online Chatter
You don’t need us to tell you how many millions of Americans spend hours scrolling through social media content. They encounter tons of information even in just a brief period, so your goal is to interrupt their scrolling with something catchy. Done well, this will direct them over to your products and services.
Effective social media content encompasses everything from brief videos and memes to clever illustrations or announcing the next massive sales event at your business. Here, the same rule applies: you must get their attention fast, typically within a matter of seconds. Don’t forget you’re competing with all the hilarious cat memes they could view instead.
What would you put into a social media post?
- Stories and anecdotes about your business, products, and consumer “pain points”
- Polls and surveys
- Re-posting of any major news in your market
- Something funny as long as at least loosely relates to your business
- . . . anything else you believe would grab their attention
Finally, don’t forget that social media is in fact social. This means someone from your team should dedicate some time to responding to comments, reviews, and other feedback you receive.
Email Newsletters: Never Neglect This Advertising Gold Mine
Email marketing is a tremendous resource nowadays. While it’s possible to inadvertently “spam” your intended audience, you CAN produce an effective newsletter, provided you know what you’re doing.
Strong email marketing requires having relevant information, interesting subject lines (that people will want to click and read), and culminating with an appropriate “Call-to-Action.” That CTA, where you recommend what your audience should do, is one of the most critical items for turning email messages into conversion powerhouses.
Our team would be more than happy to show you how to draft stellar email messages and carefully monitor them for click-through rate.
