7 reasons why digital marketing is important to small and medium businesses

 note: Please do not have any misunderstanding, I did not deliberately play down the traditional marketing model , but the traditional place of just the lack of digital marketing can make up, which is led Digital Marketing field flourish major factor, but it is also Needs for small and medium businesses

You can imagine the traditional marketing method is like a wooden bucket filled with water, but there are just a few small holes that will leak, and Digital Marketing can just fill these loopholes.

#1 content touch

Traditional TV and radio advertisements can only receive the promoted content during the designated time period and before the TV. Paper media such as newspapers and magazines require readers to pay for it before they can see it, although many magazine companies have provided it. Free delivery, but the effect is really mediocre when the content reaches the market

On the other hand, digital media can easily push content to the market, and even attract the market to enter our site to view relevant content information. The basic condition is that as long as marketers have Internet devices (mobile phones, tablets, computers), there is no time and place. Limit, content promotion can be completed at any time

Even though it’s when going to the toilet, I can see the sales information of a certain merchant pushed to the mobile phone

#2 Edit flexibility

Due to the limitation of broadcast time, traditional media cannot give merchants and brands enough broadcast time. The paper media also has limited specifications, so it will be blocked everywhere when it becomes an advertising word, and even the product photos will be too small (some of them just don’t put it)

In the digital section, uploading YouTube, Facebook video ads, website content, and blog posts from micro-movies are very free in terms of editing.

For example, blog posts can be edited from hundreds to thousands or even tens of thousands of texts, and there is no special requirement for the length of video and audio content, and even low-cost "TV Shopping" can be achieved through Facebook Live YouTube Live.

#3 Market feedback

Traditional media are basically one-way push of information, it is basically difficult to get feedback from the market. For example, after a newspaper advertisement is posted, most readers call for inquiries... However, it is a bit difficult for readers to do such a behavior.

Of course, some methods nowadays are to scan the QR code to enter a certain webpage to make a call (yes, the result is still combining digital elements)

Compared with digital advertisements, audiences can directly leave messages on FB advertisements, interact with them, or even click a button to directly send private messages or dial phone numbers. The buffer for obtaining market feedback is relatively short, and it can be very effective after the advertisement is passed. Quick response

#4 data report

The traditional advertising model can almost only provide an approximate way of reaching, such as the number of TV viewers, radio listeners, newspapers and magazines sales "thousand impressions" data in the advertising time.

However, the advertising data reports provided by mature online advertising platforms are very detailed, such as how many people are touched, the cost of 1,000 exposures, how many audiences click on the advertisement, click on the link of the advertisement, how many people enter the website or leave, How many people buy etc (there are many, many)

#5 cost control

No matter how economical a production team is to make a TV commercial, it needs tens of thousands of costs. Writing, shooting, lighting, scenes, actors, makeup, editing, reviewing, etc. are all costs of manpower and time, so why are we in How many commercials you see on TV come and go

In terms of digital, there are countless commercials shot by a mobile phone, and some even use Webcam to record video content. Although there is certainly no such thing as professional photography in terms of quality, the cost of production is really low.

#6 Screening the audience

The traditional model is more difficult to screen the objects you want to touch, and it is more passive. It depends on the media’s own audience group, and because traditional media has various areas and channels, it is difficult for merchants and brands to screen the audience.

A mature online advertising platform allows us who are advertising to easily screen the audience’s gender, age, region, and even online behavior as the screening criteria

In this regard, it has only slowly developed from the time when Google was able to place keyword ads (2000) to the present.

#7 Evaluation Analysis

It is difficult for ordinary traditional media to analyze whether a billboard can have advertising returns, although the brand can be greatly improved; it is estimated that no company will ask the billboard company "how much sales this billboard brings to my business". Do not?

However, in the digital field, you will see real-time data reports after the advertisement is launched. For example, the click-through rate of the link advertisement does not meet the standard, and then you can modify the part of the advertisement to try to increase the data that does not meet the standard.

Even when the advertisement is running, it is possible to know the number of purchases through the advertisement, the number of inquiries, and then calculate the average cost of acquiring customers. With the analysis of these data, you can better grasp the advertising budget

Summary

With the characteristics of content reach, flexible editing, market feedback, data reporting, cost control, etc., digital marketing is undoubtedly to help small and medium-sized business to fill the gap of traditional marketing, with the rapid increase in online users, basically every user is like holding a mobile "flyer device" in his hands, or not online, once online, you have to look at the advertising Daily.
