A More Scientific Approach to Small Business Marketing:

For years small businesses have been unable to compete with big budget marketing campaigns from larger competitors. Today however, small companies can easily use the abundance free data tools to take advantage of local and niche targets through better segmenting and targeted promotion. Below are some ideas on how to integrate freely accessible data to create a more numbers driven marketing plan for your company.

Common Mistakes:

You may think of marketing and advertising in dated, creativity focused, Mad Men–esque terms. Today, no matter how creative a catch phrase or slogan, it will be worthless without the necessary insights to reach an audience which is growing ever more segmented by the year. While messaging is still important, it is no longer the driver it once was and must always be backed up by clear demographics and solid audience data.

As a small business, you may think there is no way to keep track of all this customer information and might feel you have no time to collect all the information that is necessary to shape your marketing campaign. Many small business owners are simple overwhelmed with the number of available advertising option today, and unable to determine whether to spend valuable dollars on tv, radio, networking, or online ads.

The good news is you do not need to undertake the task alone.
