3 Marketing Hacks to Level Up Your Game
Want your marketing campaigns to hit gold? Stop throwing darts in the dark and start aiming like a pro! These 3 simple hacks will help you understand your audience, track your progress, and dominate the market which is a win/ win for both you and your customer.
1. Trend Tracker
Think of the market like a weather forecast. You wouldn't launch a beachwear campaign in winter, right? By keeping an eye on trends (think Google Trends, keyword research to name a few) here you can see what's hot and what's not. For example imagine a garden centre - Checking 5-year barbecue trends is cool, but overlaying that with their sales data tells a deeper story. Maybe BBQs flopped in 2023? Adjusting the budget against the trend, not only saves you cash but keeps you ahead of the curve, ready to pounce on new niche trends, helping you lead the market.
2. ROI Focus: Updated Numbers Don't (shouldn’t) Lie!
ROI compares campaign costs to revenue, telling you if your fancy ad actually made you any ROI. Think of it like comparing your burger budget to how many burgers you sold. Did you turn a profit, or did you just buy everyone fries?
Understanding your ROI helps you decide whether to boost your campaign or stop it quickly. You can even improve accuracy by uploading customer data to Google Ads, seeing exactly how many new customers you received for example. Remember, ROI helps you tweak your campaigns which means a more controlled campaign where you have a higher chance of success.
3. Know The Audiences Language
Understanding your audience is like having a secret superpower. Knowing their platforms, interests, and even "discovery terms" (what they search for) lets you craft messages that resonate and increases the likelihood of sales.
Tailored messaging cuts through the noise, reaching your audience exactly when they need your awesomeness. Plus, it saves you budget from being a leaky bath. So, who are you talking to? Define your ideal customer, explore their world, and watch your engagement skyrocket.
