Editor's Notes
Ask 10 business owners what “digital marketing” is and you’ll probably get 10 different answers. Digital marketing could be described as “Internet marketing on steroids”. What I hope to share with you in the next 5 minutes is a better understanding of what this phenomenon is and how it can take your business to the next level, and it doesn’t matter if you’re a plumber, a real estate agent, a dentist, vet, doctor, lawyer – the industry does not matter.
Consumers are most definitely online. You can read some of the statistics here, but I read one the other day that was staggering: 121 million searches are conducted in Google every hour (this number does not include Yahoo or Bing), and only 25% of users scroll past the first page. My mission is to get my clients on page one!
OK…this is the Internet…(Pause)As you can see, it’s not just about search engines and websites any more…it’s about a web presence.
Having said that, here is the typical process that people follow when looking for your products or services.So going clockwise on the screen, 1: (CLICK)It usually starts on search engines like Google or Yahoo or Bing. Or maybe, on Directories like Google Places or Local.com.2: (CLICK)Next, Consumers learn about your products and services on many more places than just websites, perhaps on company or personal blogs, or on multimedia sites like YouTube or Flikr or vimeo.3: (CLICK)Then, they might check your reputation…essentially a free background check on Google hotpot, Google Places, Angies list, or Yelp.4: (CLICK)After that, they might consider personal recommendations from friends on Facebook, or Tumblr, or Twitter.5: (CLICK)Depending on your service or products, they might even check for deals on Groupon or Zagat or Yelp.This is all perpetually happening; You can’t stop it, you can be there, not be there, or be there with a good or bad reputation. You can leave it to chance, or you can manage it. That’s where we come in.To showthis cycle a different way…
Read slide, then say…Again, this is what we do for businesses like yours.
