5 Marketing Strategies You Haven’t Tried Yet
Attracting new customers is essential for boosting revenue, but if your results have stalled recently, it might be time to explore new marketing strategies. Here are five top marketing strategies you might not have tried yet:
1. Offer Incentives for Referrals
Oscar Wilde once said, “There is only one thing in life worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.” With 74% of consumers noting that word-of-mouth recommendations greatly influence their purchasing decisions, it’s crucial to generate buzz around your business. Encourage referrals by offering rewards, discounts, or special offers to existing customers who refer friends and family to your business.
2. Combine Email and Social Media Marketing
Email marketing remains one of your most powerful tools for acquiring and retaining customers. While social media platforms may adjust algorithms to limit the visibility of your posts, email marketing allows you to reach your customers directly in their inboxes. Convert your social media followers into loyal email subscribers by sharing a link to your email sign-up form or using Text-to-Join keywords across your social media channels.
3. Run a Contest
Contests are a great way to boost engagement and attract attention. Host a photo contest or a giveaway where potential customers can win valuable prizes. Ensure the prize is something your target audience genuinely wants. Define clear objectives for your contest, such as increasing social media followers, driving foot traffic to your store, or growing your email list. Announce the contest through social media and email for maximum participation.
4. Enhance Value with Content
Consider the value your content offers to your customers. If you’re not providing something of interest or value, your audience may quickly lose interest. Attract potential customers and establish your business as an industry expert by creating and curating valuable content. This could include articles, images, and videos that address your target audience’s needs and interests.
5. Engage (and Lead) the Conversation
Find opportunities to discuss your industry with potential customers and showcase your expertise. This can be done in person at panels or online in forums. The more exposure you gain, the more relevant you’ll be to your audience. When they need your product or service, your business will be top of mind.
