What is the best way to increase your marketing reach for your ecommerce sales channels to become more effective?
There are several strategies you can implement to increase your marketing reach for your clients' ecommerce sales channels and improve their effectiveness. Depending on your sales channel/s, each strategy can provide mixed results. But make sure you market where your customers are. There is no point in most cases trying to convert customers that are not looking for your type of products. Brand marketing can be very costly and not quantifiable for the throughput of sales, the ROI is simply not that measurable or immediate.
- Optimise product listings: Make sure your product listings are complete, accurate, and include high-quality images. Also, ensure that the product descriptions are compelling and optimised with relevant keywords that will help their products show up in search results on shopping marketplaces like Amazon, eBay, and Etsy.
- Leverage social media: We always encourage our clients to establish a strong presence on social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. They can use these platforms to showcase their products, engage with customers, and drive traffic to their shopping carts like Shopify, WooCommerce, and Magento. Fix problems for your consumers that they didn't know needed fixing or provide a USP by way of price, service or product function.
- Utilise email marketing: Help your clients build an email list and send regular newsletters and promotional emails to keep their customers engaged and informed about their latest offerings. All your sales data is accessible to download from our online 3PL tools from all sales channels. Use it to your advantage to upsell and cross-sell to all your purchasing clients.
- Invest in paid advertising: Consider running targeted ads on social media platforms and search engines to reach a wider audience. This can be especially effective for promoting special offers or discounts. But make sure you get some expert advice to help set up campaigns and to target the right audience. Don't be fooled by A.I. models managing your campaigns, remember who you're paying and why they would want you to hand over control of your spending.
- Utilise influencer marketing: Identify influencers in your client's niche and collaborate with them to promote their products. This can help increase their visibility and credibility with potential customers. Be careful about what an 'influencer' is. You need to look at their audience to see if they can actually influence your potential customers. There is seemingly a lot of smoke and mirrors when it comes to influence and the value that is attached to it.
- Offer promotions and discounts: Encourage your clients to offer promotions and discounts to attract new customers and retain existing ones. This can be particularly effective during peak shopping seasons such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday. The ability to get repeat customers should be cheaper than acquiring a new client. Always upsell and cross-sell trying to get further reach from your client's network of friends and family.
- Consider expanding to new channels: Encourage your clients to explore new sales channels such as marketplaces like Etsy Superdrug Marketplace and Google Shopping. This can help you reach a wider audience and increase your sales potential. Read forums around your sector, listen to your peers about what they are doing and learn from their mistakes.
Overall, the key to increasing your marketing reach and effectiveness is to stay up-to-date with the latest ecommerce trends and continually experiment with new strategies and channels to find what works best for them. By helping your clients succeed, you can build a mutually beneficial relationship that will lead to long-term success for everyone involved.
