Making Online And Offline Marketing Work Together

Understanding how online and offline marketing work together is very important for today’s small business owners. In today’s digital climate, a website is a must-have for a business of any size. Most people look your business up online before they ever set foot in your brick and mortar location. That means for a small business, an online presence via a website and social media puts you on the map for many of your consumers and gives them valuable insight into who you are and how your business can work for them. Offline marketing via a print and direct mail campaign is equally important to the success of your business. That’s why smart small business owners understand the value of making online and offline marketing work together.

Online marketing leads to offline sales when you create marketing materials that feature your purchase URLs – that means your website and other purchase portals like Amazon and other online retailers who carry your products. The marketing materials you design should also feature your social media icons to draw consumers and encourage them to leave online reviews and testimonials other potential shoppers will see. You can also offer exclusive sales and discounts for online only shoppers via your print marketing campaigns.

Online marketing also leads to offline marketing because many consumers will you look you up online beyond your dedicated online presence. They’ll look at price comparison sites to make a buying decision based on the lowest price they can find. They’ll look at consumer review sites to make a buying decision based on recommendations and referrals. They’ll also look at online complaints to see how your small business handles customer service and customer complaints. You can put those consumer-based sites to work offline in your company by creating postcards and flyers that have the icons for these sites and a call to action that encourages consumers to leave a good review.

Does your business host live events? Making online and offline marketing work together can be as simple as using your online presence and your print marketing campaigns to drive traffic from one to the other. Try including calls to action on your print materials that send people to your online presence. Similarly, try using your website and social media sites to send people to your retail locations with online only discounts and deals.
