Advertising plays an important role in your business (every business,
actually!). But, there is one BIG mistake advertisers frequently do and
this mistake could cost you a bundle!
What is it?
The
fact that you don't analyze what type of advertising is working for you
and which are not doing so well!
Analyzing the results of your advertising campaigns will help you
determine where your money should go. If you skip this task, then you'd
probably spending too much money on a lousy campaign! Of course you
don't want that to happen do you?
I know that this task is very time consuming and boring, that's why
most advertisers always neglect this one. The fact is, it becomes time
consuming and boring if you don't create a system for that. This system
should inform you the performance of all of your advertising campaigns.
This is what makes online advertising so great. Many online advertising
services give you ad campaign reports on a regular
basis. They inform you which ads are working and which ones are not.
Although not every type of online advertisings have this feature, one
of them who does is Pay Per Click (PPC) advertising.
But what if you advertise in ezines (lots of ezines) and ad
classifieds? What if you put several banners and text links here and
there? How to monitor their performances?
Well, in case you didn't know, there are some services in the internet
which really could track your ads and make your job a lot easier. To
learn more about this service, you can go to HyperTracker
Once you know exactly the performance of all of your ad campaigns, here
are some steps that can save a lot of your advertising budget:
o Determine
Your Target Market
Who would be interested in your products? What problems do your
products solve? Believe me, reaching untargeted market would only hurt
your advetising budget. Don't go for quantity, but go for quality! Many
people love blasting ads to a huge community and ended up with no sales
at all? Why? Because they are simply reaching the WRONG people.
o Set
Up a Realistic Budget
How much money could you put aside for advertising? Remember, don't
waste all of your advertising budget on a single campaign! You have to
test what type of advertising that will work best for you.
o A
Great Sales Copy
Make people want to click through your URL. Your target here is to make
them click, not to sell! Let your site do the selling for you.
o Test
Several Ads
Test several ads at the same time. Tweak your sales copy. You'll be
amazed at how a little difference you add to an ad could result in a
HUGE difference in the response. This part is a lot easier if you use
the good old HyperTracker
o Analyze
and Re-invest
Analyze your ads performance. Stick to the ones that give you best
results. Now that you know what works and what doesn't, you could
re-invest your advertising budget ONLY on the best type of advertising.
