As a business owner, you might prioritize things differently as there will be many tasks that go into running a successful business. But make no mistake, Online Marketing is one of those important tasks and you cannot ignore it.

A clean, functional and responsive website (the type that is easily viewed on various gadgets, from lap top computers to mobile phones and tablets) is a very important first step.

Here are a few tips to increase your visibility and engage consumers online

Promote your social media channels (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Youtube, etc) on your print materials, in your email signatures, and inside your office or physical place of business.

Ask customers to “Like” your business’ page on Facebook, and with signage displayed inside your store, your practice, or physical location of your business.

If you use a hashtag for your business, make sure you note it in offline literature and advertising too, this way customers can find you online and join the conversation or learn more about what you offer.

Connect your online and offline efforts by posting, blogging or tweeting about in-store events and activities (sales, celebrations, customer appreciation, and arrival of new items).

This brings us to the most important reason why your business must be online. The answer is easy! It is where your customers hang out, and that’s online. With so many brands, products and services competing for attention and market share, locally or nationally, customers have the power to pick what they see as the best deal. Where they spent a good amount of time going over such deals and items to buy is online. So, make sure they see your business too.
