Web Marketing Is The Most Cost-Effective, Targeted & Agile Way to Reach Customers.
(If You Know How to Make It Work for You)
“I set up my website and social media, but I’m not getting enough traffic.”
“My marketing budget is limited and I need to be sure my investment will pay off.”
“I’ve lost so much money on marketing firms with big promises, but I didn’t get any results.”
You’re on attempt number 2,671 to figure out how to reach new customers. You’ve read every how-to article under the sun and attended all the conventions. You’ve thrown away money on conventional ads, low-performing online ads, and fruitless website services–both DIY and expensive firms. Nothing works.
Then you get serious about it. Instead of continuing a patchwork of random tactics, you make a plan. You take a pulse of your current efforts, you get the actual numbers, and you really figure out where you are and where you want to be, with a realistic schedule of practical, effective tactics.
You notice the first few calls trickle in from online visitors. Then you notice your website traffic is picking up speed. Your website finally gets on the first page for your target keywords. After a few months, you’ve already seen a return on your investment and your marketing strategy is on auto-pilot. Now, you can focus on planning your next vacation.
A road map drives your web presence from accidental sales to intentional, scientific marketing, so you profit more & work less.

“My Marketing Budget Is Tight & I Don’t Know What Really Works”
“How do I know what website service to use?”
“I’ve tried hiring out my web marketing, but I just got burned.”
“How can I tell if a design company is really going to get me a return on my investment or if they’re just another firm full of exaggerated claims?”
You don’t need to be an expert to understand web marketing.
The basic steps for effective web marketing don’t change, even if all the tactics are unique to your business. If you know these, you’ll know where a consultant fits in your plan and if they are a good fit for you. Then you don’t have to weigh an endless parade of vague promises and you can focus on the specific deliverables that meet your needs.
If you’re hiring a website designer or copywriter without a plan, you’re putting the cart before the horse. If you have a solid plan, it’s easy to know what investment makes sense for your budget, narrowing your search and making your choice even easier.

The objectives should be SMART (specific, measurable, actionable, realistic, and time-bound). Every step of the way, the question must be persistently asked, “how does this meet the campaign goals?” These must have a direct relationship with the details, e.g. “Increase organic search traffic by 50%.”

Your available tools are evaluated for their potential to meet your objectives, such as your website, Facebook account, etc. Plan SMART steps to use these tools, tie them to a timeline, and match them with your objectives and each other, amplifying their impact through coordination.[/info_list_item][info_list_item list_title=”Analysis & Refinement” list_icon=”Defaults-filter” title_font=”font_family:Lustria|font_call:Lustria” desc_font=”font_family:Lato|font_call:Lato” title_font_size=”desktop:22px;” title_font_line_height=”desktop:33px;” title_font_color=”#3663de” desc_font_size=”desktop:18px;” desc_font_line_height=”desktop:27px;”]Every tactic is mercilessly examined, checking its match with objectives and its cost vs. potential. The rationale for using each tactic is clarified and backed up with secondary research and analytics, which you’ve already gathered. Each tactic is tested. Conclusions are made from the results and the tactic or strategy is refined. This is the basis for scientific web marketing. Following these steps, you have a step-by-step plan of action.[/info_list_item][/info_list]
2. Design & Development
(Putting the Road Map Into Action)
To launch your website, you’ll set up & configure your domain & web hosting, Content Management System such as WordPress or Shopify, conversion tracking code for remarketing and ROI tracking, and a “coming soon” email opt-in, landing page. Methodically plan each step of design; with site objective, sitemap, conversion flow/ content hierarchy, wireframing/ mockups, code and configure, add quality content, refine SEO, and test.[/info_list_item][info_list_item list_title=”Social Media” list_icon=”Defaults-group users” title_font=”font_family:Lustria|font_call:Lustria” desc_font=”font_family:Lato|font_call:Lato” title_font_size=”desktop:22px;” title_font_line_height=”desktop:33px;” title_font_color=”#3663de” desc_font_size=”desktop:18px;” desc_font_line_height=”desktop:27px;”]Your social media accounts serve you like digital field reps, going out and meeting with your audience where they are. Your social media suite helps you engage with your customers and build your brand, customer trust, and customer loyalty. It refers your customers down the line of your sales funnel and is ideal for passive marketing or targeted advertising.
Get an account on each major social media platform, use the ones that count, hold the ones that don’t for brand protection. Complete all social media accounts, including branded profile and backround images with a decent resolution, “about us” copy, permission settings, a good call to action, and integration with related social media, such as Instagram. Set up a content schedule, best done with an automated scheduling service, such as Buffer, to easily track results and save time.[/info_list_item][info_list_item list_title=”Email Marketing” list_icon=”Defaults-envelope” title_font=”font_family:Lustria|font_call:Lustria” desc_font=”font_family:Lato|font_call:Lato” title_font_size=”desktop:22px;” title_font_line_height=”desktop:33px;” title_font_color=”#3663de” desc_font_size=”desktop:18px;” desc_font_line_height=”desktop:27px;”]Your email marketing is your digital field rep, who refers your customers down the line of your sales funnel, like your social media, but who makes house calls. Email marketing is excellent for building ongoing relationships with customers, with much more active marketing than social media and usually much warmer leads.
Set up an account with an email marketing service, such as MailChimp. Configure and design your templates, integration with other web properties and opt-in forms on your website, analytics, and schedule tactics to boost your list and send emails.[/info_list_item][info_list_item list_title=”Advertising” list_icon=”Defaults-bullhorn” title_font=”font_family:Lustria|font_call:Lustria” desc_font=”font_family:Lato|font_call:Lato” title_font_size=”desktop:22px;” title_font_line_height=”desktop:33px;” title_font_color=”#3663de” desc_font_size=”desktop:18px;” desc_font_line_height=”desktop:27px;”]Determine your budget for advertising and where your audiences are most likely to respond. The beauty of online ads is that they offer a much more scientific approach than conventional marketing, at a fraction of the cost. You can create as many, specific audience segments as you want, split test as many ads as you want, track results in real-time, and refine your ad campaigns on a moment’s notice.
Decide on the best locations to reach your audience, develop custom, audience segmentation, write a creative brief for your ads, create a unique landing page on your website for every ad you make, launch test ads, refine and invest in your high-performing ads.[/info_list_item][/info_list]
3. Launch & Test
With a properly planned road map, most of the work is done before launch day. On launch day, your website should already be tested, but keep checking, it’s when all the unforeseen bugs show up. Your social media content and ads should be on auto-pilot, your emails should be scheduled for release, and your celebratory cocktail should in your hand.
The remainder of this phase and the campaign is spent monitoring and refining ads and content. As you track the progress of your launch and make adjustments in content and ads, plan next steps and use this data for the next web campaign cycle.

“When Should I Do It Myself Or Hire Help?”
Every web marketing effort costs time and money. Your time is valuable. Your budget is limited.
You could learn how to design websites, write code and copy for SEO, design, test, and manage all your own ads, learn copywriting best practices and the best practices for each marketing tool, etc. You could also hire a designer, developer, copywriter, and content manager for every step of your web marketing campaign.
The most important thing is realistically recognizing how much time it takes you to learn and actually do it yourself.
Small business owners benefit most from finding a good balance between all DIY and all hired help. The trouble lies in the guesswork and patchwork attempts to see what works. A solid road map makes it clear, based on the objectives and available budget, exactly what’s realistic and what kind of help fits in each part of the plan.
