A Controlled Marketing Campaign Can Connect Consistently With Your Audience
Topics: article marketing, article submission, article distribution, article promotion, article writing
As an affiliate marketer, you have a certain message you want to get out to your audience. The details of that message vary as you highlight different features of your affiliate product. However, the central theme of your message remains the same. That theme is “My product can meet your specific needs.”
How do you get that message to your niche? You do it by having a controlled marketing campaign. When you have a controlled marketing campaign, you “stick to your message” and do not lose sight of its purpose. A controlled marketing campaign means not going off topic, not generalizing, and not telling your potential customers something that they already know.
The first step in your controlled marketing campaign is to know your niche audience’s needs. It’s important that you do a little market research to understand what your target market wants from your affiliate product. When you know exactly what they want from a product like yours, you can tailor your marketing message accordingly.
It really is that simple. The hard part is taking the time to learn about your niche. That will involve Internet research, and talking to them on blogs and forums. It will also involve talking to more experienced affiliate members, your upline, and your affiliate program manager. When you engage in article writing and article marketing you will want to ask other affiliate members how they created content that resonated with their audience.
Once you know what your audience wants you formulate your message and then choose a channel for getting it out. A controlled marketing campaign will utilize several channels. You will employ article marketing to establish yourself as an authority on affiliate product related topics. This will also get your website links widespread distribution on the Net. Focused, highly relevant articles that convey useful information to your audience will result in a successful article promotion effort.
Along with article submission and article distribution to gain website traffic, you may engage in e-mail campaigns. Once you build your list through an opt-in page on your site, you will want to communicate with them on a regular basis. Your e-mail campaign must also speak to your audience’s wants and needs. Just like your article writing efforts, your e-mail writing must let your audience know your affiliate product can help them.
While your e-mail messages will be more sales oriented than your articles, they will also be just as informative. If you send an e-mail full of fluff writing that exaggerates, and hypes without offering solutions then you are blowing hot air. Connect with your audience through a controlled e-mail campaign that offers the same useful information your generic articles do. Enjoy the freedom of promoting your product specifically in your e-mail campaign, but do not insult the intelligence of your audience by sounding like a “slice and dice” TV salesperson.
A controlled marketing campaign to connect with your audience also means fine-tuning that campaign as is necessary. Consider new developments concerning your affiliate product. Have there been new studies in fields related to your affiliate product. Has your affiliate parent updated the product? Are their new versions of the product coming out? Are there complementary accessories to the product you can present to your audience? Control your marketing campaign by updating your message to your target audience. They will see you as a reliable source of information when you do this consistently.
Finally, a controlled marketing campaign evaluates the performance of advertising initiatives in progress. Monitor your e-mail campaign for responses each week. Check out reply comments to your blog and forum postings and post again in response, to keep the dialog open. Check the number of hits your banners are receiving and your text links as well. Keep track of your article distribution efforts; what articles are popular with readers.
When you have a controlled marketing campaign, you focus your message on a niche and stay on message. Whatever channel you use to get your message out make sure your message speaks to your audience’s needs. Show them your solutions are the answers they are looking for. Show them you are in control of valuable information that will point them to the quality affiliate product they need.
