Due to the NatWest Quarterly Survey of Small Businesses in Britain around 17% of small and medium sized businesses in the UK search for marketing advice every year. It should be also added that less than half of those businesses consider the marketing advice they received to have been a success.
The natural question is how to give yourself and your business the best possible chance of getting return on investment from your marketing spend? The first step that should always be done is doing some researches. It means you must think very carefully about the customers or clients that you are going to attract. It includes geographical location, spending power, social class or business type and size. In order to get the best possibility to get return on investment you should also consider how the target market that you have defined may seek the services of a business such as yours. Maybe, on the high street, on the Internet, in the national papers or local papers and magazines or maybe yours is a business where it is important to contact your potential clients or customers directly by e-mail or phone.
Mostly, it is a combination of several of these media options that will provide the optimum answer and will bring you the best result for your investment. There is a need to follow the other particular advice: you should consider every media option very carefully and never make snap decisions even if a very good price to ‘buy now’ is presented. There is no doubt that price is an important consideration but it is always a wise decision to ‘test the water’ with a particular media before involving a large percentage of your marketing budget to it.
Then you should also think about what makes your business special and why should clients or customers choose to deal with your business rather than any other business that provides the same or almost the same service. As a matter of fact very few businesses have truly unique sales points (USP) but most do have areas of competitive advantages where they have something to offer above and beyond their competitors. So, it is vital for you to think what your areas of competitive advantage are.
To get the creative execution correct is the final thing to be considered in getting return on investment from your marketing. Here it should be added that a lot of businesses fall at this last hurdle. It is vital for you to keep in mind that any communication with the target market must be professional, convincing and persuasive, because wrongly or badly designed or written advertisement or website can ‘kill off’ a campaign that otherwise would have brought return on investment. So, don’t save your time when it concerns your business and investments and whatever you do spend the necessary time and money in order to get the best result.
