To achieve a successful marketing campaign, you need to dedicate a lot of time and effort to planning and researching a successful strategy. Here at Thailand’s Macromill South East Asia has done this plenty of times, read on to find out the best strategies that elevate our campaigns.
- Build a consumer profile
The first step to any type of marketing campaign, whether done online or offline, is to establish the primary and secondary demographic for your products or services. However, it should not end there. The key to a good marketing campaign is establishing a consumer profile to represent your ideal customer.
To do this, you must answer the following questions:
- Location
- Age
- Income
- Job title
- Goals
- Priorities
You can add more information to fill in that you find necessary to establish the buyer persona but these are the most integral questions you must find an answer to.
- Research industry trends
Before you can devise a plan to reach your target consumers, it is crucial that you first conduct thorough research into the industry and economic trends. Understanding the present consumer behavioUr will dictate how to properly angle your marketing campaign.
- Identify the marketing tools and channels you need
There are a multitude of marketing tools available for you to use and it might be tempting to use as many of them as you’d like. However, you need to be strategic in the digital channels you use to ensure that you are reaching the right audience.
For example, say you are a traveling agency and the buyer persona you established identifies a female yuppie who works at a promising start-up whose hobbies include traveling and taking photos. A good way to reach your target audience is to devise a marketing plan focused on Instagram and Facebook is ideal since these are the digital channels that your target demographic typically frequent to share their adventures.
- Identify your short-term and long-term goals
When drawing up your strategy, you must determine your short-term and long-term goals to ensure that all your plans are aligned with what you ultimately want to achieve.
Short-term strategies can include weekly or monthly events and item or service discounts which aim to drive quick results within a daily, weekly, or monthly timeline. In comparison, long-term goals look at the bigger picture to maintain and improve your brand identity.
