Warning: Casual Marketing Can Lead to Business Setbacks
Summary
Are you falling into the trap of "casual marketing," the very approach that causes countless businesses to fail each year? Here are three steps to help you avoid this pitfall and propel your business toward success!What is Casual Marketing?
Casual marketing is the practice of trying a marketing tactic once or twice and abandoning it if instant results don’t appear. This mindset is akin to the "build it and they will come" fallacy. Simply waiting for clients to show up is ineffective and can spell trouble for your business.
According to the U.S. Small Business Association, for every small business that opens, another closes. This alarming trend is partly due to casual marketing practices.
Three Steps to Avoid Casual Marketing
1. Diversify Your Marketing Strategies
Engage your target audience through various mediums and angles. People have different preferences: visual, auditory, or kinesthetic. To reach them all:
- Visual: Use eye-catching display ads, photographs, and videos.
- Auditory: Implement radio campaigns, teleseminars, and audio postcards.
- Kinesthetic: Offer product trials or tangible samples.
For instance, a car dealership might combine flashy ads with audio postcards and test drives to engage its entire audience.
It's also beneficial to use multiple platforms such as print, online, and television to reach different segments of your audience effectively.
2. Consistency Builds Trust
While varying your approach, maintain a consistent message that clearly communicates who you are and how you solve your audience’s problems. Small businesses should aim to develop this into strong branding.
3. Embrace Continuous Marketing
Marketing should be a constant effort, not a sporadic one. If you're not leading the conversation, your audience will tune into competitors. With the overwhelming competition, being consistently present is crucial. Always look for marketing opportunities and make them work for you.
Conclusion
Have you relied on casual marketing? Whether you have or haven’t, what matters now is your commitment to consistent marketing efforts. Adopt an "all-the-time marketing" approach and let it become second nature. You'll find that it not only gets easier but also yields real results. Make the decision today for a more successful tomorrow.
