Getting your website strategy right to drive online leads

November 20, 2013

Our recent article about how to drive target customers to your website lent itself to ask the question, but what if your website isn’t well designed or customer friendly to convert these visitors into actual leads.

Dedicating resources that drive traffic to your website, Online Advertising, SEO and Social Media – are worth very little if you are not willing to devote time to your website itself.

Why is the tool that is responsible for converting that very same traffic into customers often neglected? It mainly comes down to a lack of understanding regarding how a website contributes to an overall marketing strategy. images

Your business website used to be an extension of your marketing, nothing more than an online corporate brochure. In today’s world, it’s everything – the centre of your marketing. Part of your online strategy should be to create a website update program that sees you adding new sections or content regularly that is of value to your customers. It should be a useful tool for them to find the information they want to be an effective marketing tool for you.

Rather than prioritising marketing channels that drive traffic, businesses need to first focus on their website first, and build the rest of their marketing strategy around it.

We call this setting up the right foundations to grow your business.

What is paid, earned, shared and owned media?

By Erica Williams • February 8, 2023

Media is complex. Much more than it used to be. Since the dawn of the internet and rise of social media, the number of media options has exploded. For a marketing manager, they are like pieces of a puzzle, interconnecting and working together. So, how does a marketing manager make the pieces form a nice, big, beautiful picture, to successfully stand out not only amongst the competition but above the vast array of media noise? American digital marketing expert, Gini Dietrich, identified four types of media: Paid, Earned, Shared and Owned. She called it the PESO model . Here we look at the four types of media. We describe and analyse each one and discuss how they all fit together.

When we launched in 2003, the trend in agencies was to provide a specialist service, like creative or media buying. But we saw the opportunity to offer full-service marketing to our clients, taking the pain away from managing multiple agencies with multiple processes. We’ve chosen to continue to base ourselves in the Macarthur region, moving to Campbelltown in our current office nearly six years ago. This has enabled us to build strong working relationships with many companies in our region including property developers, builders, manufacturers, local Councils, venues, and many more. We’ve also worked with loads of companies outside the region which is becoming so much easier with the aid of technology. We’re not just suppliers, but genuine business partners. I’d like to thank the many clients I’ve worked alongside in the past 20 years and look forward to continuing many of those relationships.
