Our digital marketing video series entry covered the components of building better brand authority. We're putting the spotlight on a related topic: brand promotion. Before your brand can truly become an authority, it needs to be widely recognized. The goal of brand promotion is to make your brand name and logo synonymous with your products, services, people, and culture.

In today's digital climate, it's becoming increasingly harder to stand out. But there's a sliver-lining that comes with this widespread opinion. Because the digital space moves so fast, an increasing number of companies are letting important aspects of their strategy - like brand promotion - fall by the wayside. And it's actually understandable; sometimes, there just isn't enough time. However, if you are willing to put in the time, energy and effort to properly promote your brand, you stand to reap huge rewards. So to help you get started, here's our latest WSI Digital Marketing Video, 5 Sure Fire Ways For Improving Brand Promotion:

 

 

1. Extend Your Reach with Google AdWords Ad Extensions

Pay-per-click (PPC) campaigns delivered through Google AdWords are a proven method for delivering an expected amount of site traffic for a fixed cost. But as with everything else in digital marketing, things have changed. Generic ad copy and landing pages will no longer get you optimal results. Google has created 'Ad Extensions' that allow you to include extra information in your ad about your brand and its products or services. Ad Extension types include additional site links and click-to-call buttons directly on your ad. The added details in extensions are a game-changer for your PPC campaigns and a great way to enhance your brand promotion.

2. YouTube Advertising Gets You Seen

YouTube is the world's second-largest search engine. Let that sink in for a second. After Google, YouTube rules search. Consider these questions. Would you ever ignore Google? Are you currently neglecting your YouTube presence? If your answers to these questions were "no" and then "yes," then you have a problem (and you can probably guess how to fix it). YouTube advertising is also an effective low-cost promotion option for your video content. If you want your brand to be seen and heard, look no further than YouTube.

3. Improve Promotion Using Google’s Display Network

Once you're plugged into Google's Display Network, the Internet is your oyster (or something like that). Seriously though, Google's Display Network reaches over 90% of the world's Internet users, so if there are people out there interested in your products and services, there is potential to reach them. And if you mix and match your ad formats and creative design, you'll tap into a whole target audience you never knew you had.

4. Stay Top of Mind by With Remarketing

With all the different ways to connect, share, review, and discuss brands and their products, "buying" has become a social activity. Bound together by only their love, ownership, or desire to purchase a product or service, thousands of like-minded people can have great influence over who buys what. Brands that work the hardest to participate in the conversations about themselves are the biggest winners.

If customers are talking or thinking about your brand, they're more likely to buy from you. One of the best ways to stay on the top of a consumer's mind is to consistently present your brand to them as they traipse around the Internet. Whether it's on a news site or a social media feed, if you a consumer is reminded of your brand, there's a chance it'll trigger a purchase decision.

5. Don’t Forget Your Mobile Audience

You've likely heard about Google's mobile algorithm update, but just in case you haven't, head on over to our rundown of how mobile search results are changing. There are a couple of things you need to do right now (especially if you have a mobile audience). But the most important message we can derive from the update is that Google wants to improve the experience for searchers, which is something every brand and market should always be working toward. Adhering to Google's mobile algorithm update isn't an obstacle or a nuisance, it's a step in the right direction.

What Are Brand Promotion Examples

Now that we have spoken more in-depth about brand promotion, here are examples to help you understand it more.

Social media marketing, such as Facebook and Instagram, which have become relatively popular among the youth, are useful platforms for online brand promotion. You can do this by posting engaging content, interacting with your followers, and running ads. Content marketing by creating and sharing content such as blog posts, videos, and podcasts to attract your target audience. Public relations includes activities such as press releases, public appearances, and events that are aimed at generating positive media coverage. There are many more, but by using a brand promotion strategy, you can improve your reputation and brand image.

Advertising And Integrated Brand Promotion

Advertising is a form of communication that typically involves paid messages aimed at informing, persuading, or influencing consumer choices and actions. Integrated Brand Promotion is a strategic approach to marketing and advertising that involves coordinating various promotional tools and channels to create a consistent, unified message about a brand. This ensures that all forms of communication and messages are carefully linked together. Integrated brand promotion (IBP) takes a step further from advertising. It is an approach to marketing and advertising that involves coordinating various promotional tools to create a consistent message about a brand.
