Marketing campaigns cannot survive if they are boring. There
are more than three thousand marketing
messages reaching out to prospective customers
every day and it is really a huge competition if one
expects to be recognized
among the crowd. This message should talk to the customer and influence
his
mind. Strong, creative, confident and exciting are the key factors that a
message should have, as
that will embed it into the customer�s thinking and he
remembers it for a longer time.
The customer should feel empowered and should
think of taking some action right away. For instance
Nike�s catch line is Just
do it, it is a line that has such a great impact on the minds of the people
that
they use that line even when talking about everything else, along with
Nike products. It is obvious that
by adding certain features, the marketing
appeal can be multiplied.
Scientists agree to the fact that using visuals to make a
person learn something is the best option than
any other means and as one of
the famous saying goes �a picture speaks a thousand words�. So the
best bet is
to add visuals to promote marketing. Visuals can be anything like pictures,
animations, or
graphics. See yourself what wonders it does by placing a picture
of a representative and products on
the company�s website. This not only brings
the customers close but also strengthens the relationship.
Different colors depict different types of emotions.
Messages can be delivered to people suing colors
and meaning can be added to
it. Red and blue are colors liked by aggressive shoppers whereas yellow
color
can catch good attention of the on lookers. Green reflects health, money and
nourishment, so it can
be used in food advertisement. Black means strength and
power that is why it has been used by Jaguar, on
their website background and
advertisement. Wealth and royalty means purple. Colors used on business
cards
can also be used to attract the customers.
But remember, do not get color crazy, they should be carefully
played with as too much color can be
distracting. A professional help can be sought
when selecting colors for business cards, website font,
website background,
logo, etc., to send the right message. On websites, fonts can be added which
change colors and graphics that move.
There are plenty of options available when thinking of what
technology to use. The good news is that
most of the options are cheap and easy
to use. Audios and videos can be added to your website to
attract attention.
Like when one visits the Pepsi homepage, they are greeted with energetic music,
which attracts teenagers instantly. To make a more realistic approach, welcome
message, introduction
video, interviews, or how the goods are produced, can be
added to the website. Hearing a voice can be
very touching and a rapport can be
immediately developed with the visitor. Like Adidas� website opens
with a video
which truly fits their punch line, Impossible is nothing.
Business cards should be outstanding and at its creative
best. Professionally designed graphics can
be added to a brochure type of card.
Information about the company, contact information, quotations,
and picture can
be added on four sides of it. The fonts should be the same.
Just listing the benefits isn�t enough. Customers want more,
they want their needs to be met. Like if some
is thinking of buying an exercise
equipment, don�t just say that the machine has display, automatic incline,
cooling device, CD player, programs, but also add that there is a program with
audio instructions which
encourages the person to do exercise, which is meant
for people who need real motivation to get out of
their couch and to start
sweating out. So convey exactly why the customer should use the product, be
more precise.
Uniqueness is the biggest key factor. Not only should the
products and services be unique, the marketing
campaign should be unique too.
Not only will the effort be appreciated but also the impression will be
everlasting. Once faith of customers is gained, they will be like free walking
advertisement and will
spread the word to their friends and acquaintances like
anything.
