Essential ideas for your Marketing Campaigns

Promote your campaigns using banners

banner

As I mentioned above, there are various ways to promote your products on e-commerce websites. But a good e-campaign is the one who can provide appealing and substantial visibility for your brand image as well as your products. And among things, onsite banner is the easiest yet effective to help you implement your promotion campaigns.

A web-based business promoting campaign involves putting a banner slider on your site to focus on a particular item or brand that you offer. The banner can either be something that you make on your own if you have some designing skills and interest, or it very well may be given by the outsourcing agency.

Since this kind of advertising method is a frontend interacting with potential customers, you should think about the way to optimize it. Here are five steps you must keep an eye on when running a banner campaign:

  • Define your target audience
  • Clarify the purposes to use specific banners
  • Contents and images used
  • Design: size, color, text font, how you organize content
  • Playing banners and observe the results to improve it later

Hardly almost people succeed with their campaign right at the first time running. So if you don’t see the instant result with your banner campaign, that doesn’t necessarily mean that it was a wrong investment. You should know that even customers didn’t join your promotion campaign, they still keep in mind your products and your brand name. If your image is craved deeply in the customers’ minds, when they need a solution related to, they will surely look for you first. Showing banner sometimes becomes the tool to rank you at the top of the mind of your target customers. Undoubtedly, it is not a poor investment in the long term.

Offer appealing loyalty programs

loyalty programs

Don’t you know that customer retention is the most cost-effective approach to nurture your sales over time? Let me give you some proof numbers: According to Stitch Labs, repeated customers account for 22% revenue of an online store, while making up just 11% of the total customer base. Also, they spend 15% more over a year.

So how to build an effective loyalty program in which drive your target customers to become the repeated one? Below are the three most used tactics for your loyalty campaigns:

  • Reward point-based program: The most popular loyalty approach in which customers receive additional points after conducting a particular activity such as purchasing, reviewing for a product used, referring their friend or to social channels, etc. Customers can redeem those points to make another purchase on owned stores. That’s how e-stores encourage the retention rate of buying from first-time customers.

  • Membership program: This is another way to offer a special deal for high engagement customers. Online stores can create various membership products for different customer bases. Owners of these products can upgrade their packages to a higher one to receive more benefits. Membership program is mostly used in the service business such as gym, yoga, education, spa, airline, and so on.

  • Order and Customer data based discount: Store admin can also set discount rules for specific customers whose orders are qualified such as reach a total order quantity, order value, order frequency in a certain time, etc. These rules attract any customers and push them to buy your items instantly with tempting discounts. For example, clients who have purchased at least 3 times on store in one month will be offered buy 1 get 1 free program.

Referral marketing to expand brand awareness

Referral marketing

I would love to talk about affiliate marketing in this tip. With affiliate marketing, e-commerce can enhance your reach quicklier, and deliver your message to the as much as audiences on the Internet.

We call affiliate as a long tail because there are a huge number of individuals who can promote your websites besides the big agencies and expert companies. These people are normal in life, but they form a community that affects any businesses in the ecommerce industry. So caring about affiliate marketing is a wise way these days.

One plus of affiliate marketing is that your ecommerce business only pays affiliates after the sales are recorded. So I can say that affiliate marketing is the most cost-saving and easy to control marketing method.

Beside increasing exposure and brand awareness, the benefits of affiliate marketing include:

  • Strong Return on Investment (ROI)
  • Large social proof
  • Enhance Credibility
  • Multiply Brand Embarassdors
  • Generate User Content

Provide purchasing incentives: Coupons

Coupons

You might hear about coupon many times when purchasing online. Even, almost of us have applied coupon once in a while, right? So I am going to list some highlight reasons why we use coupon in our marketing campaigns:

  • Simple to implement: A coupon code can be sent to the specific customers via emails or SMS in the campaign duration. This is limited and conditional coupons for specific customer groups. Or sometimes, it can be published on seller websites so that any visitors can reach the campaigns. Customers having the coupons in hand can always apply it at the checkout page easily in the duration date.

  • Easy to track campaign effectiveness: Online stores can always generate the specific coupon type to identify each campaign. For example, Mageplaza reward 10% discount coupon for the first purchase of a customer, in which they can use coupon code WELCOME10. On Valentine’s day 2019, Mageplaza offered a coupon named COUPLE25 for customers who buy two extensions in order.

  • Effective sales booster: Why coupon undoubtedly boost your sales? Let’s think about how customers can use coupon? They must make a purchase in your stores! Hence, for each coupon used, meaning that an order is completed, you gain some revenue. It is eventually used to motivate customers to buy more from you with coupon codes.
