The
internet (and, by extension, mobile) is merely a vehicle to provide greater
reach for your advertising, promotional and public relations efforts. Internet
marketing must be part of your integrated marketing approach. Internet
marketing strategies should be included within your company's overall marketing
plan.
The following tools therefore are necessary to build up a complete integrated online marketing strategy.
Building up a complete website and adding some
features through which your website should be based on your overall
communication, marketing and sales goals. And, it is critical that these
objectives are measurable. Equally important is the ability to effectively
measure whether objectives are met. Such objectives might include:
Subscribe to your e-newsletter
Request
additional information
Online
customer service
Others tools that are of equal importance include the
calculation of Website Statistics, Facebook page through different methods
which include many marketing-relevant indicators.
For any strategy to be effective, your target
market segments must contain a sufficient number of Internet users. The most
effective Internet strategies will fail if the intended target markets are not
online. Granted, with seventy-seven percent of Americans online, this is not
likely to be an issue for most market segments. However, not all market
segments are equally represented. For example, internet usage is closely
correlated with income and education—the higher the income and education, the
higher the percentage of individuals using the internet.
The time I'd spend on my website will be a major portion because an online business can be run only if the content is updated regularly and has always attractions for the readers or site visitors otherwise the project will fail.
My daily requirements shall be to track the visitors and to post SEO friendly articles so that whoever searches is directed towards my page being updated on a regular basis and also to identify any further markets wherever possible.
Paul, is Tia's Bakery an actual business.... located in LA area? I went to Facebook and saw the last post in October that makes me ask the question. I have lots of friends who look for gluten free products. All the best to you.
