In all of marketing history, few marketing techniques have come as close to delivering a personal touch as mobile marketing. Mobile devices are items that most people either keep on their person or in sight for most of their waking hours. This article will build on this information and give you some helpful hints to make this type of networking work for you.
On your website and your mobile site, have links to your social networking and other affiliated sites. Company videos on YouTube, Twitter page, Facebook's page, Google+ page, or Foursquare any resources that you can provide to your customers to give them more information about your business and who you are.
Where your customers are located makes a big difference to how you're marketing to them, so remember to use the proper context for your mobile marketing. If your customers are out and about on a Saturday afternoon, do you really think you're going to be able to sway them with any offer? Realize where they are and what they're doing at least to the best of your ability.
Use QR codes on all of your print materials, from business cards to product packaging. This is a great way to give people quick access to all the content you want to provide, from cleaning instructions to alternate uses. You can even have a link to a coupon for future purchases, or a sale page.
Don't hide who you are in your mobile marketing campaign! The first thing the reader should see is who you are what what you're selling. Branding your mobile marketing is as important as branding in traditional marketing, so include your logo and any slogan or wording that will remind them of who you are.
Keep track of what your competition is doing. Are your competitors sending out messages on their customers' cell phones? Find out what kind of techniques they are using. If your competitors do not have a website that can be easily accessed via cell phone, this could be your chance to steal some of their customers.
Avoid anything in mobile marketing that seems too easy. If it seems like it may be really easy to implement, you can be sure that something's wrong with it. Of course, we're talking about mobile-specific things here, like apps and formatted sites. A lot of ads and email techniques are universal, so don't fret on that front.
Tie your marketing to big events or holidays. Special occasions can make your marketing really work. Give special vouchers to ladies only on Mother's Day. Hold contests on big sporting event days to give your brand a presence. Give your clients a short code number where any person who send in a text message has a chance of winning.
Offer customers a reason to give you their mobile phone numbers. Have a sign at the register offering an instant one time discount. Give mobile customers first notifications of sales and new items coming in. Customers do not want to be texted without their being a good reason for it.
Mobile marketing is a different kind of marketing because it is not a strategy, it is an objective. You cannot force people into this kind of marketing so your goal should be on the end result, the objective to get more customers involved and support your business as opposed to trying to force it on them
Make sure you mention your mobile marketing campaign in your other marketing efforts. You could have a link on your website where people can sign up for it, or mention it on your Facebook or Twitter page. If people know about your mobile marketing campaign, they will be more likely to sign up for it.
When sending messages to your customers, be sure to use their real name. Using your customers real name in the message creates a more personal atmosphere that will allow you to bond with them and make your message seem less automated or robotic and more realistic, friendly, and overall more genuine.
To summarize, you have an opportunity to connect with people on a personal scale that is otherwise unheard of in marketing.
