  • Pay-Per-Click Advertising Skyrockets Profits for an Ecommerce Store
    Pay-Per-Click Advertising Skyrockets Profits for an eCommerce Store A PPC Case Study BuildASoil (BAS) is an online retail supplier for organic soil bases, amendments, composts, fertilizers, and growing systems. Gardeners design their own custom soil and nutrient mixes on their website, which are then bagged and delivered to their doorstep. While the BAS products can be used for any home gardener, their brand attracts the exploding cannabis market in Colorado and other legal states. They have also grown a lifestyle brand around their product through Instagram, YouTube, and their blog where they offer how-to articles, videos, and behind the scenes information to their fans. Their mission is to assist home gardeners to be successful with organic gardening through their tested natural systems. They have a vision for a garden in every patio in every home. PPC Agency Management BuildaSoil connected with InSync Media in October 2018. While they had grown a successful company through organic online marketing, paid and organic social media, and a loyal fan base, they knew they were missing an opportunity to grow through pay-per-click advertising on the popular Google Shopping Network (GSN). The GSN is a technical setup, and the staff at BAS did not have the internal resources to get this PPC advertising channel set up and working correctly. It made sense for them to hire an agency to manage this aspect of their PPC marketing. After the initial setup costs, InSync Media offered them affordable monthly management fees available to local small businesses. Pay Per Click Bid Management Strategies Successful ongoing PPC campaign management includes ​bid strategies​ and ​targeting strategies​.

  • A Comparative Analysis of Mobile and Email Marketing Using AIDA Model
    J. Basic. Appl. Sci. Res., 4(6)38-49, 2014 ISSN 2090-4304 Journal of Basic and Applied © 2014, TextRoad Publication Scientific Research www.textroad.com A Comparative Analysis of Mobile and Email Marketing Using AIDA Model Fazal Ur Rehman1; Tariq Nawaz; Muhammad Ilyas and Shabir Hyder Department of Management Sciences, COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Pakistan Received: February 22, 2014 Accepted: May 4, 2014 ABSTRACT This study assessed the effectiveness of mobile and email marketing channels using AIDA model. The study used questionnaires based survey to collect data. The collected data were analyzed through logistic regression. The study is based on the marketing channels adopted by a mega store. Results indicated that mobile marketing was more effective as compared to email marketing. This study was unique in the sense that comparison between both channels based on AIDA model was analyzed for the first time. It is suggested that marketing professionals can increase their sales using mobile marketing; however, this effort should be supplemented by using e-mail marketing. KEY WORDS: Mobile Marketing, Email Marketing, AIDA Model INTRODUCTION Advanced technology has altered the way of doing business and minimized distances among businesses and its customers. Nowadays, it is easy for businesses to intermingle with customers efficiently and quickly at lower cost and shorter period of time around the world. In the contemporary business environment, mobile phone and electronic mail play important role in communication. Mobile marketing is the use of cell phones as a source of marketing communication. Shankar and Balasubramanian's (2009) defined it as “the two way communication and promotion of an offer between a business and its customers via cell phones”.

  • Multiple Unit Price Promotions and Their Effects on Quantity Purchase Intentions Kenneth C
    Journal of Retailing 83 (4, 2007) 411–421 Multiple unit price promotions and their effects on quantity purchase intentions Kenneth C. Manning a,∗, David E. Sprott b,1 a Colorado State University, College of Business, Fort Collins, CO 80523-1278, United States b Washington State University, College of Business, Pullman, WA 99164-4730, United States Abstract Consumers often encounter multiple unit price promotions whereby a price reduction is presented as a reduced total price for multiple units of the same item (e.g., an item regularly priced at $1.25 each is promoted as “5 for $5”). In a series of experiments, we find that the positive effect of these promotions on quantity purchase intentions is contingent on the magnitude of the quantity specified in the offer and the rate of product consumption. However, offer effectiveness is not influenced by highlighting single unit prices, the unrestricted nature of these promotions, or aggregate savings. As predicted by the selective accessibility explanation, the effect of multiple unit price promotions on quantity purchase intentions is shown to be mediated by accessing anchor-consistent knowledge. An agenda for further research and the implications of our findings for retail practice are discussed. © 2007 New York University. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

  • The Marketing Plan
    The Marketing Plan The most important part of a business plan is the Marketing Plan. To keep one’s business on course this plan must be geared toward the business’s mission—its product and service lines, its markets, its financial situation and marketing/sales tactics. ♦ The business must be aware of its strengths and weaknesses through internal and external analysis and look for market opportunities. ♦ The business must analyze its products and services from the viewpoint of the customer—outside-in thinking. What is the customer looking for and what does the customer want (benefits)? The business must gain knowledge of the marketplace from its customers. ♦ The business must analyze its target markets. What other additional markets can the business tap into and are there additional products or services the business can add? ♦ The business must know its competition, current and potential. By identifying the competitor’s strengths and weaknesses the business can improve its position in the marketplace. ♦ The business must make decisions on how to apply its resources to the target market(s). ♦ The business must utilize the information it has gathered about itself, its customers, its markets, and its competition by developing a written Marketing Plan that provides measurable goals. The business must select marketing/sales tactics that will allow it to achieve or surpass its goals. ♦ The business must implement the plan (within an established budget) and then measure its success in terms of whether or not the goals were met (or the extent to which they were). The Marketing Plan is an ongoing tool designed to help the business compete in the market for customers.
