Breakthrough the revolutionary world of Digital Marketing!

Do you require digital marketing support? Unsure about where to start? Here’s a brief overview from the beginning!

So what is Digital Marketing?

Well, to keep it simple Digital marketing is the marketing of services and products using various technologies. The Internet being the most popular, but it can also include display advertising, mobile phones and any other digital platforms. Digital marketing can also be referred to as ‘web marketing,’ ‘online marketing’ or ‘internet marketing.’

We live in a world that is shrinking and where technology is evolving. People are consuming more and more content on laptops, smartphones and tablets everyday. Over the past 20 years there has been a significant development in digital marketing. With the increase of mobile phone penetration, the introduction of e-commerce websites and not forgetting the explosion of social media. Digital marketing also enables business to adapt to online trends and communicate with their target audience in the most effective way. Those that need Digital Marketing support and have still not recognised digital marketing in their marketing plans and strategy need to act fast!

“Ignoring Digital marketing is like opening a business and not telling anyone”

Consumers now have a voice and brands must move from traditional one-way communication of talking ‘at’ the consumer to a two-way dialogue which is free flowing, informative and adds value. Spreading a variety of content and awareness over numerous channels including blogs, social media and video will help build an online community. An online community enables consumers to have a voice, create their own content, share their opinion, thoughts and feelings about products and services.

With the internet predicted to be the largest medium for advertising this year, it’s essential that companies and brands get their strategy right first time.

Digital Marketing Interactive Wall Display

Digital Marketing Interactive Wall Display

The words interactive walls may sound unfamiliar to you right now, but it’s set to become one of the most important parts to business marketing. Some of the effects you may have seen on TV, like the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, are now available to use within your business. We’re talking about interactive images being projected onto indoor or outdoor surfaces. Which is now possible through innovative projection technology, never before available to the consumer market.

One of the most capturing marketing campaigns, is to have interactive walls inside your business. What’s the advantage of having this technology? Take a look at why nurturing the imagination can bring a real wow factor to customers, that helps your brand stay in the minds of every consumer.

How Interactive Walls Work

With our software and a bespoke PC, you can project digital images onto walls and floors to create the effects that you see at large-scale events. For instance, creating the illusion of water or other vivid imagery on the ground whilst performers interact. You may have thought this was good for entertainment purposes only, but the marketing potentials for your businesses are endless.

So what makes our technology so interesting? Whist you can project images onto any surface, our software can also be used on LED screens too. No matter where you project the images, they’re always in high definition to giving the feeling of virtual reality. Helping your business to spark the imagination, interest and engagement of your customers.

The Marketing Potential

Customers can interact with the images on screen, making it all the more important to marketing. Just like digital signs, our interactive projection system will bring an even stronger sense of surprise and curiosity. Children will be instantly wowed by it and adults will love it, making a refreshing change to normal advertising campaigns.

You can easily incorporate business branding and logo’s into the projection system. It’s also a stronger way to get your brand at the forefront of your customers’ minds. The collaboration between branding and providing interactive entertainment is guaranteed to help you gain valued new customers and help to retain old ones.

Amplify Branding and Web Design Agency

Amplify Branding and Web Design Agency

Following our Eshot campaign for a special offer on Branding and Website Design, we were approached by an existing company who were looking for a complete rebrand and new website. One of our client account manager’s arranged an appointment at our studio to discuss the brief and clients requirements.

The client was keen to attract a broader range of clients and wanted to create a bold, fresh, flat, modern and iconic logo and look and feel to their brand. Our studio designers created a variety of logo concept designs which were presented to the client along with a rationale as to why we had chosen the font and colour scheme.

Once the logo designs and branding had been finalised, our in-house web designer created a site map for the new website. Various meetings were arranged with the client throughout the process to share ideas and feedback. Our design team also created a range of corporate stationary items and office branding, the client was thrilled with the end product…

We are just in the process of renaming our company to ‘Key Talent Matters’ with a complete rebrand. It was important for us to choose a team to work with that understood us as a business and with the vision of a longterm developing relationship.

I have to say the Amplify team have ‘knocked it out of the park’. The new brand is fresh, clean, bright, modern, professional and is exactly what we were looking for and reflects our business perfectly. They are understanding, flexible and patient

The Marketing Benefits of Immersive Augmented Reality

Letting a customer interact in an imaginary universe during a marketing event can help elevate the mood of any customer. We have the technology to let them feel like they’re performing on a stage, walking a red carpet, or any other environment that might be related to your company. It’s always a good idea to pick a theme that relates to what you do so they can get a better sense of it without them being there in person.

Have you seen our huge digital campaign for Pepsico? It engaged hundreds of people in shopping malls across the Middle East. For more information see our other blogs, feel free to contact us or visit our digital showroom where you can personally experience the activation.

This heightened sense of imagination is guaranteed to leave a lasting impression on everyone. Even better, you can give them the gift of that interaction by using our technology to capture it on video and send it automatically to their email address.

With so many options available with our technology, it’s why we encourage you to contact us to see what we can do for your company. Especially for overly ordinary industries that need an image boost, our technologies can make you look innovative, plus spark the imagination of all ages.

What are the Key Benefits of a Marketing Plan?

A Strategic Marketing Plan keeps your company marketing efforts consistent with the business goals and objectives

An in-depth marketing plan will help your company determine what jobs need to be done and what should be ignored. This will keep your team focused on work that matters—work that enables your company’s goals and objectives to be achieved

A plan keeps your marketing efforts proactive

There’s always new technology, new marketing platforms or a new opportunity which we are always keen to respond to. When you’re constantly reacting to outside forces you’re not in control. So rather than being pushed and pulled in all directions, a plan will protect your business against that trap. A plan will detail your strategies, it will create the path to achieve those strategies and will define the things you need to do to win.

A sound plan makes it easy to evaluate new opportunities

The world around us is always changing so we can assume that new opportunities will present themselves from time to time. It might be a new way of advertising or as big as a new market opening. How do you know if these opportunities are good for you? A plan will prove priceless in these circumstances as it will give you the criteria to evaluate them and determine if they make sense for your company

A marketing plan facilitates measurement

A plan gives you a framework to measure your efforts. One of the great things about all the newer tactics we have at our disposal is they are easily measurable. We can see web site traffic, banner ad clicks, number of followers and email click-throughs. But, all that data on its own does not mean a whole lot. A plan gives you the ability to evaluate all the data and determine if your efforts are moving you towards your corporate goals.

There are many more reasons to develop a marketing plan. The value of a sound strategic marketing plan far outweighs any investment you make to create one and the benefits will last for years.

If you don’t have a strategic marketing plan and would like some further information on marketing strategies, get in touch! We offer a free consultation service and we are sure you will be amazed by our ideas, thoughts and solutions.

Strategic Marketing Planning

Last week was another busy one for Amplify!

The Amplify team have been working on a huge strategic marketing plan for a large manufacturing company in the Middle East. We thought it would be useful to provide you with some information in this weeks blog on how to achieve an effective strategic marketing plan for your business or brand.

So what is a strategic marketing plan?

It’s a process that companies should go through to create and implement effective marketing systems. The plan focuses on marketing and promoting the business to the target audience.

To create an effective strategic marketing plan takes a lot of time, firstly gaining background information on the company / brand, clients and the competition. Companies need to look at identifying promotional opportunities and evaluating the marketing opportunities; research, analyse and identify the target audience; develop a key focus audience for the business to go after and how to achieve the plan; and measuring and evaluating the key results of the marketing efforts of the business.

Planning is one of the most important tasks for a business to succeed.  Whether you are just setting up, launching a new product, rebranding, or just looking to grow your market share – planning is key.

Creating a yearly strategic marketing plan for your company or brand is something you should definitely consider. In-depth planning involves understanding the market and your current business situation and using that knowledge to identify goals and objectives to make progress. We are able to work with you and your business to support you in achieving your marketing goals. Our services cover all aspects detailed in this blog and vary from business to business. We have the knowledge and expertise to work with small independent companies to large corporations.

 Why a Strategic Marketing Plan is key to your business:

So now you know what it is, we thought it would be useful to explain the benefits of having a Strategic Marketing Plan. All companies have fantastic marketing tools available to them. With the explosion of social media, high speed internet and mobile touch devices, the world around us is shrinking and communication to our key audience is evolving. Companies can now access Twitter and Facebook at a click, providing immediate communication channels direct to the customer. The same goes for a corporate blog, email blasts, banner ads and search engine optimisation: they are all quick and easy to do. But how successful are you at doing this? A lot of the ways we communicate with our clients these days tend to be very specialised and focus on the small picture. Twitter, for example, is a 140-character micro-exchange between you and your target audience. It’s a great tool, but one that’s very much about hear and now. A good plan will help your business keep sight of the big picture so you don’t get lost and you don’t miss out on bigger opportunities.

Contact us for more information, we look forward to hearing from you!
