My best mistake: Merging with the wrong business
When you’re growing your business, there feels like an endless amount of opportunities for you to pursue to further that growth. However for some, like Michelle Gamble of Marketing Angels, some opportunities aren’t quite the blessings you were hoping for.
Facebook versus Google+… it’s game on!
Here’s why we’ll all benefit from the fierce competition between the two giants of social networking – Google+ and Facebook.
How an award can drive customers to your business
Winning a business award is one of the most cost-effective ways to market your business, so Michelle Gamble has some tips for making an award work for you.
How near field communications will change marketing
Michelle Gamble blogs about the impact Near Field Communications will have on the marketing landscape. “NFC communication chips will make it just as easy for consumers to make that extra saving. If NFC chips were on everything in stores, consumers could swipe it with their phones and see if they can get a better deal elsewhere.”
Bringing your brand to life
Michelle Gamble blogs about creating a strong brand to better engage with customers. “You don’t need a huge budget or long established brand to create raving fans.”
Our pick of the apps bunch
Michelle Gamble blogs about engaging your target market via social media apps. “Giveaways, landing pages, competitions, polls and other engagement apps are cropping up across social networking and are looking increasingly impressive.”
Are your online forms sending people offline?
Michelle Gamble blogs about getting your online form right and converting visitors to leads or sales. “A bad online form can kill an otherwise great website. You need to balance the need to get more people to actually fill it out and build your database, with the need to get more insights about your potential customers.”
Good things come to those who wait
Michelle Gamble blogs about nurturing leads and using your database as a powerful marketing tool. “Save the sales pitch to a small section of the newsletter and only let them know when there is something different happening- for example a new product or when you’re running a special offer.”
Why I love to hate group buying
Michelle Gamble blogs about her up and down relationship with group buying sites. “That got me thinking about the future of group buying. Surely I’m not the only one who has a love-hate relationship with the sometimes inbox clogging emails.”
Why you should think about your QR code
Michelle Gamble blogs about successfully introducing QR codes into your business. “From a marketing perspective, it’s a way to add value and enhance your customer experience, and connect to your audience instantly on another level.”
Marketing Is Simple
Good news business owners! Marketing is simple, blogs Michelle Gamble. “Sometimes we try to get too clever, and feel the pressure to constantly innovate to stay relevant in the market.”
