Strategy

Which tools will you USE

Facebook Pages

• People can Like your

page

• If they like your page

then any news you

publish is added onto

their Facebook wall

• They can like, comment

and share your news

• Remember this is

social media

• Try and be helpful

• Occasional requests

may work

• Invitations to get

involved often do

Getting People to Like your page

Having a page is not enough

• Many people find marketing their social media presence to be difficult

• But each Like means that you have been invited to share your news for FREE!

• Add a like button to every communication and encourage people to go to the page to find useful information

What is SEMOn-line marketing PPC

• You profile when and where

your ad is displayed

• You define the keywords that

will indicate a potential client

• You set the budget per click,

budget per day, and total

budget for the campaign

• You create a landing page on

your web site

• Measure, measure, measure

Traditional

• You identify a publication

that will reach your

audience

• You design your ad

• You choose the size and

location of the ad

• You pay the fee

• Wait, wait, wait

Search Engine Marketing – PPC pay per click

• Traditional advertising is based on “views”. How many people will be able to view your content.

A quarter page advert in a local paper can cost £300-£500 per week based on the circulation and placement of the ad.

• Pay per click is paid only when a potential client clicks on the ad and therefore expresses an interest. A click can cost as from 60 pence to £60 but you set and control the budget

A search engine will then take people

to your landing page

IMPLEMENTATION

Building the initial pages and agreeing on a launch methodology is key to

the success of your marketing plans

What makes a good landing page

Relevant and original content– What is the purpose of your page? (It should be clear to users)

– Is your content copied from other sites? (It shouldn't be!)

– Why would a user visit your page over a similar site? (Your site should offer value for users)

– What other additional products, features, or reviews can you offer?

Transparency– Can the user easily learn more about your business (i.e. about us, company info, contact info)

– How does your site interact with a visitor's computer? (it shouldn't download malware or collect sensitive information without a user's permission)

– Can users tell what they're getting (or giving you) when they click a download button or fill out a form?

– Is it clear to site visitors how you will use their personal information?

Navigability– If your page is conversion-focused, can the user easily access additional information to learn

more or answer questions?

– Is it simple for the user to move around the site, and reach destination content within a few clicks?

Call to Action

• Getting people to your web site is pointless unless they do something when they are there

• What do you want people to do?

• Every page on your site should have a reason to be there

• You need to be clear about what you want them to do on the page, from sign up to a newsletter or download an article or even read the content

implementation

• Who will create the Facebook pages?

• Who will the administrators of each page be?

• How many posts will be made each day during the launch?

• Who will write them?

• To create a page you need to have a Facebook account

• You should always have 2 or more page managers

• Do not hand your on-line reputation to a person just because they use Facebook
