Local Business for Local People Internet Marketing

Internet Marketing - Building Relationships With Your Customers Once you have your website up and running, one of the key things to consider is how to use your developing internet presence to add additional streams of income to your revenue. Your website will be a prime source for showing the local community as well as the wider world what products and services you have to offer, and maybe also selling those directly to the customer, but that is by no means the only way you can use the internet to boost your income. Email Marketing If your website is correctly configured to capture customer names and email addresses, you have at your disposal a database of known customers. This is a golden opportunity to build a relationship with those customers and develop repeat business at a fraction of the cost of attracting new customers. There are many ways to do this from regular emails to newsletters, special promotions, seasonal greetings and other approaches to keep you in touch and in the customers mind. Here at Local Business for Local People we can discuss all these strategies with you and put an effective marketing campaign in place. We have established links with companies who have systems that can easily implement an automated email system for your business. The big advantage of this is that you don't have to be drawn into the admin of sending and replying to individual emails - after all, your time should be focussed on running your business! Social Media The last five years has seen an explosion in the use of Social Media sites such as Facebook, Twitter and Myspace. It is now estimated that 100,000,000 (that's one hundred million) people log on to Facebook every day, and that there are over 50 million tweets per day on Twitter. That's an awful lot of communication, and a great opportunity to boost your business presence if you know the right way to go about it. Well, we do know how to go about it, and we have the tools and experience to be able to help you make the most of this revolution in how people communicate. Once again, our aim is to put systems in place that automate these processes for you as much as possible, so that you can focus your attention on running your business. To discuss any of these services please phone or email us using the details on the contact page.
