ccm

Marketing tactics have changed with the passage of time and consumers look for the new ways instead of going for the traditional way. This is how the marketers have realized and so they needed to give buyers what they wanted i.e.; information. Well, with the coming of the content marketing in the midst of this business world, it has benefited a number of business owners. Content marketing has provided an outstanding alternative to the traditional method of marketing. The main idea of content marketing is to get the attention of the audience by creating valuable and relatable content.

Many among us don’t understand the true need of Content Marketing. Well, it is not just a thing to perform but focus on how it can achieve a large number of audiences.  An effective content marketing can achieve-

  • Attract more customers
  • Generate Sales for you
  • Helps in building close relationship with the existing customer
  • Create your Brand Image
  • Enhance your customer engagement.

Nothing among the above works, if you have no set of strategies. For content marketing to take place it is important to keep in mind the following strategies. Let’s check this out:

  • Set Goals: It is very important to make sure, what you really want to achieve through content marketing and in that case you have to set a goal to accomplish your business plans. These common goals include leads generation, building brand awareness, writing blogs which lend up in getting blog subscribers.

 

  • Research your Targeted Audience: Before you proceed to start with content marketing you must keep in mind the audience to whom you are about to target. Keep the keywords in mind, and be active on social networking sites such as Facebook and twitter. Make sure that your content is reliable and easy to understand.

 

  • Think about Variety: When we talk about Content Marketing, we don’t talk about writing without having a goal. Variety of content is what makes you different. Creativity will make you stand different in the crowd and for that trying out different variety along with the creative content in the areas such as videos, images, audios can help you out to reach a number of audience.

 

  • SEO Friendly- The most common mistake which the writers sometimes make is not by writing the content SEO-friendly. The very important thing to keep in mind is that your content should be unique and original. Before you start writing do your keyword research to find out what people are searching that is related to the topic of your page.

 

Engaging with people who respond to your content can be a very powerful way to spread your reach and to connect with the target audience. You should keep in mind that Content Marketing is all about sharing as well as engaging people who resonate with the content.

4 Reasons you should Outsource Mobile App Development

out-2

Before we jump on to our topic of the day, let’s focus on the growing need for mobile applications. Nowadays people are more into mobile applications than going for web search. Whether it is an e-commerce or any finance mobile application, they find mobile application more convenient and reliable to use.

As we all are aware of the fact that today’s business world is growing rapidly and in the midst of everything; outsourcing has become more like a trend, as it has benefited many organisations tremendously.

Right from gathering the targeted audience to streamlining the revenue of your business, you must have decided to build an app that could speak by itself for your brand. A customized mobile application for your business is a must. So what are you waiting for? Get the correct route for it now!

You must be wondering, which route you should take for your very own mobile application. Whether to go for in-house experts or to outsource your development. Yes, the pros of app development through in-house experts is not hidden from us but why and how outsourcing of mobile app development has benefited a number of businesses. Let’s have a look!

Why Outsourcing Mobile App Development?

Well, many businesses even after having a team of in-house developers cannot manage to come up with a high-quality product and they find it more worth to outsource the project to a third party who are highly skilled and experienced in developing mobile applications.

Mentioned below are the four reasons describing why you should outsource Mobile App Development:-

  • Quality Product: The first and the foremost thing is that any product is known by its quality. There are a number of companies who are experienced in developing mobile applications over many years, focussing their interest in different industries such as the healthcare, finance, fashion and a lot more. And if you take a step ahead to outsource your app development to these expert organisations, you are ultimately on the right track.

 

  • Lower Cost and More Profit: When you outsource, you actually spend less and earn more profit on it. Say suppose, if a project is about 10 Lacs. By outsourcing app development you can simply get rid of other expenditures and get the app developed in near about 4 to 5 Lacs. Eventually, you earn a profit of 5 Lacs by delivering the final product to the client. Outsourcing really makes sense as it saves you from hiring experienced high budget developers.

 

  • Outsourcing Saves Time: Well, developing mobile application doesn’t require much time when compared to software. Still, a quality and user-friendly app have to be made under the hands of an expert as they will work with accuracy and meet the deadline of the project. When you outsource, you actually save time by not giving training and explaining your in-house developing team.

 

  • On-time Support: The experienced organisations along with their team of developers will always be there to support you with their presence. Even after the development of an app, there remains one or the other issues. These organisations make sure that they rectify all the errors and keep on updating on regular intervals of time.

 

According to the Global Outsourcing Survey 2016, it is found that outsourcing projects are absolutely fine as it drives innovation into the enterprise. 35% of the respondents are already focused on measuring the value of innovation in their outsourcing relationships.

SOCIAL MEDIA- RETURN ON RELATIONSHIP (ROR)

88

Are you going all well with your Social Media? Does your Brand speak? Is your targeted audience able to hear what you want to convey to them?

Social Media is a platform where you can create a life-long relationship with your audience by simply gaining their trust and loyalty. But how is Social Media related to Return on Relationship?  The key to measuring social is understanding your Return on Relationship, which I believe is measured through Organic Engagement, Community Management, Sentiment Monitoring and much more.

The phenomenon “Return on Relationship” was termed by Ted Rubin- “value that is accrued by a person or brand due to nurturing a relationship.”

Brands are not created in a day. It requires a lot of time and research to bring the right audience. If you lack a proper communication with your audience and they are unhappy with your ads or content, chances are there when you might lose the opportunity to get the leads converted into your customers.

The content should be presented in such a way that your targeted audience gets compelled to come back again and again the value of your brand could be reflected. Your audience wants to hear from you. They want relevant content which they can relate to. This will create a loyal audience who will respect the brand and be prepared to shout from any corner of the world, of how wonderful your brand is!

Return on Relationship is not easy, as you have to measure the overall sentiments of your consumer’s voice in relation to your brand. This includes measuring the organic sharing rates of your content.

Let’s talk about the earlier days when the traditional mode of advertising was applied. People observed these advertisements as a source of entertainment. But today with the coming of social media and other elements of Inbound Marketing, the rate of effectiveness on your consumers has become high.

Below are few points by which you can build customer loyalty:

  • Let the audience know what you can do for them.
  • Keep the content personal so that the audience is interested.
  • Don’t forget the Special Occasions.
  • Make it information centric by passing it on.
  • Business development calls or follow up calls is a must.

The way you present your business should be such that it can reflect an imprint of the minds of your audience so that they can relate to it. The small things can go into creating and maintaining a meaningful relationship between you can your audience which could later be converted into a client.

“Business is a game, played for fantastic stakes, and you’re in competition with experts. If you want to win, you have to learn to be a master of the game.”-Sidney Sheldon

The road to success is not an easy one. Sometimes we have to take the long rough roads to reach our destination. We come up with many ideas which flop and we see that many average people go climbing the rope of success. Why does it happen?

Now the question is, whether it is going to remain the same? Are you going to remain behind your Competitors?

There are a number of ways, with the help of which you can pull ahead of your competitors. How?? You need to focus more on your competitors and leave behind your old success formula.
