Although everyone’s business is different based upon the goals they want to achieve and the type of industry they are in, there are 3 areas in which every business needs to make sure they are giving enough time and energy into.

 

These 3 important aspects of a marketing plan are essential to not only moving your business forward, but thriving, growing and generating revenue.

Having a positive online presence is a MUST!

Your business’s reputation is becoming more and more dependent on having enough positive reviews by your patrons.

Social proof from others who have used your services or products is a sure-fire way to demonstrate that you are the best in your industry.

You know that social proof is important, but gathering and displaying customer reviews can be a daunting task.

Not only do you have to gather customer reviews, you also have to make sure they are displayed in the right places on your website and across the web. And if you're not doing it right, any negative reviews can hurt your business.

 

ACTION ITEM:

Your current Google Reviews score is:

 

Your best customers want to review you; however if it is not super easy, they will not!

To continue to grow your positive reviews score, you need to utilize a system that makes it easy for you to request reviews from your customers, and even more important, a simple way for your customers to leave you a review within a few clicks!

Leads are the lifeblood of a small business!

Generating leads that convert to paying customers is a vital part of your business. It's essential for you to have an effective customer acquisition strategy so these potential new clients can become valuable lifelong patrons!

 

Your leads can be divided into two kinds of leads: A Leads and B Leads.

• A Leads are those who need your services… today!
• B Leads are people who may have been doing research or considering their need for your service or product, but are not ready to buy today.

 

If you want your business to grow its customer base, then it is important that you not only focus your efforts in reaching those who need us now (A Leads), but also gain valuable customers down the road by nurturing the B Leads. So when they are ready to buy, their favorite company is top-of-mind. when it's finally time for them make that decision.

 

How Do You Generate Leads?

You've heard that effective lead generation is key to a successful Sales Funnel, or a Lead Funnel, but you're not sure where to start.

 

Generating leads is only the first step in a successful sales funnel. If you don't have a plan for nurturing and engaging those leads, you'll lose them before they ever become customers.

 

Without a well thought-out sales funnel, you may be leaving money on the table.

 

There are three steps in Lead Generation as part of a Sales Funnel:

Landing Pages, Lead Nurture, and Lead Engagement

 

A Landing Page is NOT Your Home Page!

You've heard that landing pages are an important part of your lead generation process, but you're not sure where to start.

Many people don't realize how important it is to have a well-designed landing page. Without one, you could be losing out on a lot of potential customers.

An effective landing page targets a specific audience, such as traffic from a Facebook Campaign or Google Ad and can help you capture the attention of your ideal customer, offering something of value to get them interested and provide you with their name and email.

High-converting landing pages increase lead generation and turn your visitors into buyers.

ACTION ITEM:

Identify what is the biggest problem, need or desire that you solve for your customer? Create a Landing Page with an offer that will attract your target audience. This will help you build a list of A and B Leads.

Follow Through and Nurture Your Leads

The next step in creating an effective marketing campaign involves nurturing leads after they've been attracted to your offer.

Lead nurturing is the process of further educating your leads about your business and positioning yourself as the expert in your industry.

Bring them through your sales funnel with a marketing automation system that either gets them to contact you right away (A Lead), or brings them on a journey to see why they need to hire YOU.

And if they are not ready to buy, let your marketing automation slide them over to the “B” leads part of your campaign, your Engagement.

Lead Engagement is Essential

If you do not keep your leads and customers ENGAGED with your company, you will most certainly lose them to your competitors.

How much revenue have you lost because you have not stayed engaged with your customers?

 

So…what does it mean to stay engaged with your customers?

 

To keep engaged with your leads, you can educate them about your product or service, show success stories within your industry, talk about your own personal successes, or failures, and you will soon gain followers, fans, and an audience!

Engagement will keep you in front of your potential customers, and top-of-mind when they are ready to make a buying decision.

With the right system in place to manage your leads, people are going to raise their hands and say “Can you help me?” and then all you need to do is say “Yes!”

Focus on Your HUB

A website is a website, right? …..WRONG!

In the competitive online marketplace, your website is the hub of your marketing. And if it is not, it should be!

Not having a website is like not having a phone number or an address--you're invisible to potential customers.

It's no secret that having an online presence is important for businesses today. Nearly everyone uses the internet to check out a company they want to do business with. Not only do you need a website, but it needs to be done well if you want to make the right impression on potential customers.

Your website should be the hub of all your marketing. Whether it is online or offline marketing, most of your leads will end up at your website.

 

You must make sure that you have the right website:

• to engage and convert your visitors
• have a clear and branded message
• be fully Mobile responsive
• have an easy to use Content Management solution

 

Putting out fresh and relevant content to your audience is one of the best ways to build and maintain that relationship with your customers. Whether it is on social, email or other online platforms, your voice that resonates with your audience should always direct them back to your website.

 

ACTION ITEM:

Perform an Analysis of your Website.

There are several key components that will indicate if your website is effective for both your business, your customers and your prospects.

 

• Do you have the ability to create and publish fresh new content on your website or blog?
• Are you able to embed or display video on your website or blog?
• Can you build landing pages for targeted marketing?
• Is your website mobile responsive and provide a good user experience?
