Not knowing your audience:
The first steps in any successful online marketing plan is gaining a deeper understanding of your audience. To boost brand profitability, engaging target audiences and developing an audience loyal to your company can significantly impact company success. Failing to post engaging content that resonates emotionally with audiences or appeal to their interests or preferences can also prove a major mistake and must be first on the table to address when fixing any marketing issues.
Brand inconsistency:
With so many marketing channels on offer, there’s an endless choice for advertising your brand. However, when failing to consider the interconnectivity of channels your marketing efforts may be rendered less effective. Nowadays, prior to making a purchase, consumers will be likely to investigate your website, Facebook, Twitter or Instagram page. Therefore, brand consistency can be the difference between increasing and decreasing sales revenue as customers may lose trust when messages from various channels differ.
Failing to track your data:
Even if you manage to avoid the previously mentioned mistakes, one of the greatest pitfalls is failing to track the data your digital marketing strategies produce. Without installing or utilising software such as Google Analytics, your company may fail to understand which campaigns are gaining traction and are successful. Ultimately without effectively interpreting this data, the way you shape and customise future campaigns could be hindered.
