Mastering Marketing in Tampa: Tips and Tricks for Success

What if we told you there are some highly effective tips and tricks you can use to craft and implement your digital marketing campaigns? Would you be interested? Well, look no further because that’s exactly what we are going to do for you right here, right now.

Highly Effective Tips and Tricks for Marketing Success

Before you begin, you need to have the right foundation in place. That foundation should begin with developing an easy-to-navigate, user-friendly, mobile-friendly company website. Then, you can just add your digital marketing strategies, all linking to and from your home base—your website.

Now, let’s take a look at some of the marketing strategies that will bring you the most success. These are what you will use as the basis of your marketing campaign strategy. They are also what will be used as part of your linking strategy.

Create a Unique Brand Identity

It’s important to create a brand identity, so you become memorable to the public. The goal is to build rapport and favorability in your industry. Name recognition will make consumers more likely to trust you and decide to do business with you over your competition. Your brand identity (messaging, logo, colors, etc.) should be consistent in everything you do. That includes your website, social media pages – everything!

Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

SEO is partly about optimizing your website and all your other content around specific keywords. Keywords are what Google and the search engines use to determine every piece of content’s ranking on a search engine results page.

Local SEO consists of using local keywords (city, state, etc.), local information, and area highlights. The information and keywords you use are what Google will also use to determine if your company should be included in the Local Map Pack that is found on local search pages (for example, real estate agent near me, a Mexican restaurant in _____, etc.).

National SEO is using keywords that have a national intent. They are keywords that describe goods or services offered to a broad geographical region. So, you want to use non-local keywords and information (for example, buy a reliable computer, etc.).

SEO goes way beyond just using the right keywords. It’s a tactic that takes time and practice to perfect. But it’s well worth your effort to learn it. If you don’t have the time to learn it and implement it correctly, we seriously recommend you hire an SEO expert to help you.

Here are some of the SEO best practices you should become familiar with. There’s too much information to cover in the scope of this article. But it’s important that you at least have a basic understanding of what is involved.

Content Marketing

Content marketing involves creating relevant content in a variety of formats (articles, videos, blogs, eBooks, social media posts, infographics, podcasts, etc.) and broadly sharing that content. Every time you create content and put it on the internet, linking it back to your website, the more powerful your website becomes and the higher your site will rank.

The goal of content marketing is to inform, educate, and help consumers find the information and answers they are searching for on the web. Your content should be crafted for a target audience, engage that audience, and retain that audience.

When done properly, content marketing will help build your brand, brand reputation, and authority in your industry. And this is what leads to consumer trust and loyalty. It will also improve your search engine page rankings.

Social Media Marketing

Social media marketing involves building a presence on a variety of social media platforms. For example, Facebook/Meta, Twitter/X, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and/or wherever else your target audience spends their time.

The purpose of social media marketing is to help increase brand awareness, increase website traffic, engage with your audience, generate leads, build backlinks, and develop a direct connection with consumers who look for social proof before making a buying decision. Social media also provides you with invaluable information about your audience, their likes, dislikes, wants, needs, and pain points. You can then use that information to market your products and services and craft your marketing campaigns.

Google Ads Pay-Per-Click (PPC) Advertising

There’s an art to developing and rolling out an effective pay-per-click advertising campaign. Do it right, and you will get instant results that could significantly boost your revenue. Do it wrong, and you will have just flushed loads of money down the drain.

Is it difficult? Yes and no. Nothing is difficult once you learn it. However, properly using PPC advertising is one of the best, most effective ways to get instant results.

Email Marketing

Email marketing is still one of the best forms of digital marketing out there. However, businesses get loads of emails every day. Therefore, you have to make sure your emails stand out and appear intriguing enough for people to want to open them.

There is so much involved in the proper way to implement an effective email campaign. But it’s well worth the time and effort to make sure you’re doing it right!

You need persuasive copywriting, an innovative email automation program, and an attention-grabbing design. Then, you have to track, analyze, and split-test everything. Otherwise, you won’t know what’s working, what’s not, and why.

Online Business Directories

An online business directory is a website that will list your local business. The purpose of using online business directories is to make it easy for your users to search for nearby products and services.

Business directories provide at-a-glance information about your company. For example, your name, contact information, hours, location, and other important aspects that a consumer might be looking for when trying to find a company to service their needs.

Examples of online business directories:

  • Yelp
  • Google Business Profile
  • Better Business Bureau
  • Manta
  • Yellow Pages
  • Foursquare
  • Superpages
  • Apple Maps
  • Bing Places
  • Hotfrog
  • Nextdoor

These are just a few examples; there are plenty more out there. Business directories are great for branding and authority and will provide you with some great backlinks! So, the more, the better!

Google Business Profile

As we mentioned above, Google Business Profile is an online business directory. You may or may not have heard about Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business). Regardless of whether you’ve heard of it or not, it’s an extremely valuable tool for not only marketing your business but also for increasing your search engine rankings.

Google Business Profile is a free tool from Google. It will help you manage your online presence. And it’s great for helping consumers find you.

Your Google Business Profile should include your name, address, and phone number (NAP). You should also include your company logo, photos, a cover image, and helpful information about your business. You can add anything you want to your profile to make your company stand out.
