The maturation of the internet has enabled the proliferation of countless online businesses. It has opened up a plethora of opportunities for entrepreneurs to capitalize on such as the use of cost-effective advertising methods and a ‘bricks and clicks’ business model that eliminates the need for physical office space.
Nevertheless, the importance of branding has not been lost. A strong brand is what appeals the most to customers and is the key factor in capturing greater market share and profitability. We at Business Name will explore the top tips managers and CEOs can use to make their brand an online success.
Raise Brand visibility
It is firstly crucial that you take the necessary steps to ensure that your brand gets maximum visibility on search engine sites and social media. The use of tools such as search engine optimization (SEO) and pay-per click (PPC) advertising form the cornerstone of an online brand’s success.
Careful consideration should be given to pinpointing accurate keywords, permalink structures and ensuring there is sufficient keyword density to determine higher rankings. Social media visibility with regards to creating a page across all channels is also important for higher brand visibility.
Increase Brand awareness
Building brand awareness is the key to enlarging and strengthening your customer base and for increasing your brand’s value. It is thus essential to have a dedicated content marketing strategy that targets your market segments and informs them the value of your brand.
By content, we do not just mean blogs. Rather, it refers to the use of a combination of images, video, blogs, web content, infographics and other means to effectively educate the purpose of your brand and the benefits of your products to your audience.
Content marketing should be used in a consistent manner to penetrate your brand’s value and message the minds of your customers and influence brand recall.
Distinct brand personality
As mentioned earlier, the internet has spawned countless online businesses which by and large will offer similar products and services. What is important to answer is why should the customer consume your brand and not others? You need to be able to stand out from the competition by implementing a set of differentiation tactics.
These include but are not limited to creating a distinct brand logo and tagline that can easily help others to recall your brand. Secondly, the colors you choose should be specific and should blend across all your digital channels such as website, social media, e-mails and so on.
Consistent marketing communication
It is also important that the way you choose to communicate to your audience should be consistent throughout time and across multiple channels. A brand message that keeps changing makes it very difficult for it to subconsciously register in the minds of consumers.
Therefore, the messages that you communicate through your advertising, content marketing and other channels should be clear and should conform to the overall theme of the brand.
