It’s time to TRANSFORM your Marketing

Build Trust, Credibility & Relevance in the eyes of your customers

The Internet has fundamentally changed the way people find, discover, share, shop, and connect. It offers you a unique platform to engage, connect, and interact with potential buyers; turning what used to be a controlled, one-way message into a real-time dialogue with millions.

78% of Internet users use the Internet to research products and services. Though they end up buying at the shop, they  actually go online to find sellers and possibly compare prices. Around 10.3 billion searches are conducted every month on Google alone, and the average Internet user now spends more time on social networks than all other ‘entertainment’ media put together.

What makes this even more interesting is the fact that these users are already searching for what they want, which makes them a (very) viable target audience for your business.

“It no longer makes economic sense to send an advertising message to the many, in hopes of persuading the few.”

Traditional advertising methods are disruptive — they vie for people’s attention by interrupting what they are actually interested in. This becomes a problem because modern audiences everywhere simply do not have time to be bored or ‘browbeaten’ by these orthodox, old-fashioned advertising.

The truth of the matter is: disruptive advertising tactics are becoming increasingly ineffective, and will continue to, because today’s target audiences know what they want (or at least think they do anyway) — they don’t ‘need’ you to continue trying to persuade them into buying a product or service they don’t, or feel they don’t need.

Stop interrupting what people are interested in;
“be what they are interested in”.

Your business can now explore a marketing tactic that relies “on earning people’s interest” instead of buying it. Inbound Marketing helps you attract people to your site, and at the same time interact and develop relationships with these potential customers. You are presented with a new marketing mix that consistently delivers a cost per lead dramatically lower than outbound marketing techniques.

You essentially move from “telling & selling”, to building relationships using a systematic, organic approach that makes your brand relevant to your customers, and not a nuisance.

Inbound Marketing in a Nutshell …

Inbound Marketing and your business

Given the digital nature of inbound marketing, the marginal cost per customer acquisition is typically close to zero, which means that as buyers continue to shift how they make purchases, the cost per lead for your business will continue to decrease.

Below, we take a look at some of the Inbound marketing tools and tactics, and how they can be employed to boost your brand value.

Blogging

Blogs are critical in building relationships and creating value. They serve as a free public relations mechanism that presents you with a great platform for cultivating visibility and building awareness.

 

Social Media

Social media is no longer just a fad, but a widespread revolution that can actually be harnessed for business. It’s a relatively low cost touch point that has a direct impact on sales & positive word of mouth. People share, read and generally engage more with any type of content when it’s surfaced through friends and people they know and trust.

The surge in social media usage is one that simply CANNOT be ignored by any consumer-oriented business. Over 95 % of all Internet users in Ghana use social media; and spend an average of 4.6 hours per week on Social media activities.

Inbound marketing has REAL business value!

Using social media and company blogs as marketing tools does not only get your company better (brand) exposure, it also generates leads that result in real customer acquisitions.

51% of Facebook fans are more likely to buy the brands they fan; and 79% of Twitter followers are more likely to recommend the brands they follow.
