Marketing a small business online

Marketing an SME online

    The internet is the perfect medium for any small to medium sized business thinking about branching out from their bricks n' mortar store or a start-up who want to direct their focus online.

Why are small businesses so suited to doing business online as opposed to other bigger businesses?

The offline advantages of being a small business, i.e.:
  • can react faster to customer complaints
  • can provide immediate feedback to customers
  • ability to make decisions quickly
Your Business can really take-off online.

If we take an example of devising a strategy for generating new leads online. Let's say that you have a Pay Per Click campaign running on Google Adwords.
 
You have gone through the keyword research and analysis phase, i.e. you have a good understanding of how people are searching for your product or service.

You have put together your landing pages and set the campaign running. The leads start coming in, but it's obvious almost straight away that one of your keyword phrases was actually quite ambiguous, and your campaign is attracting the wrong type of customers.
 
You are able to see this quickly, from reading the weekly reports. So what do you do, you pull the offending keyword and either replace with another or just let the campaign run, one keyword less.
 
The beauty of being small is that you can test something online and if its not working quickly change it.

As a small business owner, your ability to react to rapid changes on the web are crucial to you gaining that competitive advantage.
