Successful Marketing Tips For The Mobile Warrior
Ready to begin with your own mobile marketing plan? Do you know where to start or how to begin? Do you know what will work best for your business? If you have no clue how to answer these last couple questions, the tips that are listed below are for you.
Be short and concise with your SMS messages for your mobile marketing campaign. Messages are limited to 160 characters, so put some thought into how to convey your information clearly yet briefly. If you use abbreviations in your messages, make sure they are commonly accepted and make sense to your customers.
Integrate your mobile marketing campaign with other media outlets. Mobile marketing works best when paired together with outer sources. Make sure you have specific mobile landing pages for each mobile banner. You would also need to integrate a Quick Response code to drive traffic to that site. Integrating your resources make your opportunities endless.
Integrate all of your social platforms with any location-based accounts that you have. Connect your website, blog, Twitter and Facebook URLs with your location-based pages as soon as possible. All platforms, including your mobile-marketing one, should have a consistent representation of your brand, or you risk confusing your customer base.
Take your time. You do not need to have a mobile marketing plan ready in a few weeks only. You should take the time you need to gather your customer’s phone numbers, and to come up with a few strategies before testing them on a small group of people.
Promote! Promoting your mobile call to action is one of the most important things you can do to be successful with mobile marketing. Your intentions may be good, but if no one signs up, they will all be for naught. Place your call to action on any existing marketing materials you use, your social networking sites, direct mail, email, and have employees in the store tell every single customer.
Only add telephone numbers from customers choosing to receive messages to build your mobile marketing database carefully. If you add telephone numbers of customers who have not elected to receive mobile marketing messages, you are likely to see a high volume of complaints and requests to be removed from your list.
You should keep in mind that mobile marketing is usually more efficient with existing customers. It is hard to get someone who has never bought your products to open a message from you on their mobile phones. Concentrate your efforts on your existing customers and find another way to get new customers.
Utilize mobile search engine optimization. A majority of the mobile searches that are made are done using Google, so having a strong SEO strategy is just as important for mobile marketing as it is for other online ventures. In addition, many devices tailor search results by location, so be sure to include location-specific web pages.
Do you know how to begin your mobile marketing plan now? Can you now find a place to begin with it? Do you know what will work for your business? If you can now provide an answer to these questions, then you have read and understood the previous tips, and are now ready to make mobile marketing work for you.
