Benefits of an Internet Marketing Consultant

As a small business owner, you may be used to doing everything yourself or assumed you did not have the resources to have outside help, especially on something like marketing. 

However, you could be focusing on your core capabilities while someone else helps handle expanding your marketing channels to a larger, more targeted audience. This is just one of the many benefits of hiring an Internet Marketing consultant.

Save Time and Money
A comprehensive Internet Marketing program requires time and money – two things you are most likely short on as a small business owner. There are so many channels and tactics to exploit, content to create, comments and engagement to manage, and statistics to study. 

Learning what each does let alone which ones you should choose and how you should use them takes considerable time. However, an Internet Marketing consultant already knows and understands how to work within these channels, platforms, and applications.

Focus on Your Core Business

When you have someone else handling your marketing and advertising functions, you can focus on your core business to make it a place these new customers will want to come back to again and again. 

You can work on making the important decisions that keep your business running at optimum performance, including attention to service, training, strategy and finances while your Internet Marketing consultant brings in your target audience.

Tap into Greater Expertise

An Internet Marketing consultant has specific expertise that they continually hone as the rules of online marketing and advertising continue to change, including search engine optimization rules and new social media platforms. 

Their expertise also transcends industries and niches, so they can work with a number of types of retail operations to help them understand their audience better. They also are more aware at works at moving you up the search engine ranking and how to select content that is relevant and interesting to your audience.

Expand Creativity and Innovation

When you are inside your business, it may difficult to think ‘outside the box’ so having an Internet Marketing consultant can provide you with a unique perspective, ideas, and feedback that can move your business forward and generate exciting new products and service experiences for you.

Grow Your Customer Base through Google AdWords, Content Marketing, SEO and Social Media Marketing

While you may be familiar with these terms – Google AdWords, SEO, social media marketing and content marketing – you may not know how they could be included in your business to more effectively target your specific audience and then exponentially grow your customer base. Magazines and articles attempt to explain each of these tactics to help small business owners understand how they can use these new tools.

Here is a brief guide on how each of these four tools could work for you when you work with an Internet Marketing agency that knows how to develop, manage, and monitor each tool.

Google AdWords

There are a lot of small businesses like yours out there on the Internet and that come up in search engine results that are competing for the same customers. Running Google AdWords campaigns creates a paid sponsorship that gets you noticed in the search engine rankings but, more importantly, places an ad on the side of the search results to get noticed over your competition.

An Internet Marketing agency like Flyline understands how to create effective Google AdWords campaigns, including selecting the right keywords, so you don’t have to worry about this aspect of your online marketing efforts.

Content Marketing

Content Marketing tactics include Social Media, Article Posting, eNewsletters, Case Studies and Blogs. The purpose of this tool is to deliver relevant and interesting information to a key audience segment. This will keep that audience coming back for more, and it will transform your business into the ‘expert’ in that particular product or service area. It provides an authentic and trusted source that your audience can engage and feel comfortable with, which helps them conclude their purchase decision in your favor.

Since content marketing takes considerable time and ongoing management as well as needs the expertise of quality writers, an Internet Marketing agency can do this f or you as you more than likely are already spread too thin and may not feel comfortable with writing.

SEO

SEO can help your customers find you among the crowded Internet marketplace. It is a way that can help you determine what search terms your audience is most likely to use so that you can use these in your content and strategy as a way for them to locate you before the competition.

The rules around SEO are constantly changing and have confused many a small business owner who has tried to do this on their own. An Internet Marketing agency like Flyline stays on top of the ongoing changes in requirements from the search engines so they can quickly adapt their SEO strategy to help you while you focus on your core capabilities.

Social Media Marketing

Social media marketing is quickly evolving to continually ensure that the customers’ needs are met across all types of social media platforms. The key to make it work is authentic engagement and interaction between you, the small business owner, and the customers and potential customers.

This can be a very time-consuming process and one that is vital if a small business owner plans on having a presence on Facebook, YouTube, Pinterest and more. An Internet Marketing agency can handle this for you, keeping up with all comments, adding photos and videos, responding to questions, etc. to keep that presence engaged and viral.
