MARKETING STRATEGIES FOR SMALL BUSINESSES IN 2021 WRITTEN BY: Rachel Woods

Here are the 6 Top Marketing Strategies for Small Businesses in 2021:

1. Email Marketing Email marketing is the only digital marketing tool that allows you to build a personalized relationship with customers and continue to nurture them well after their first purchase. You can send customers drip campaigns based on an action, like signing up for a consultation or completing a purchase, or send regular newsletters filled with company and product updates. To use email marketing successfully, consider the following tactics: • Segment your customers based on demographics or activity • Use a CRM or EPS to automate sending emails at the right time • Develop compelling subject lines to make sure your email gets clicked This marketing strategy came from MarketingInsiderGroup.com’s “5 Smart Marketing Strategies for Small Businesses.”

2. Social Media Marketing Using social media channels to reach and engage your target audience is no longer an option, it’s a must. Rather than asking yourself if you should be active on social media, you should be asking yourself: 2

3. Establish a Brand For a small business’s customers and potential customers to know what their company is, does and stands for, they need to have a clear brand identity. Once they have decided on their company’s identity they need to match it with a suitable name, logo, colors and imagery that conveys their brand to customers. Small businesses owners might decide to establish a brand look with the help of a freelancer or by collaborating with an established agency. This process can be costly but in the end, it is worth it. Think about the recognition of established brands like McDonald’s or Starbucks and how that recognition is tied to their brands, logos and colors. This marketing strategy came from FreshBooks.com’s “8 Marketing Strategies For Small Businesses.”

4. Network, Leverage Local Be active on LinkedIn. This is a great way to find others in your industry, join chat groups and forums for advice or event invites. Book a booth at a town fair. Sponsor a few recreational sports teams in the area to place your logo on the back of a shirt. Have a local magazine or newspaper run an advertisement, maybe even with a discount “if you mention this ad”. Host your own event. Invite your community to an open house or lunch and learn session.

5. Create a Company Newsletter A well-written newsletter can be a cost-effective way for small businesses to build communication and rapport with customers and prospects. To make your newsletter successful, keep the content informative, entertaining and digestible. These steps improve the chances of the newsletter being clicked on, opened and read when it’s sent out to your subscribers. This marketing strategy came from SmallBizTrends.com’s “25 Types of Marketing Strategies for Small Businesses – Which Ones Do You Use?”

6. Invest in Ads Organic traffic takes a while to build, and as a small business, you want to invest in shortterm plays. Pay-to-play tactics that target buyers with high intent are great for short-term wins to jump-start other objectives. Google Ads are perfect if you know that your target audience is searching the web for your product or solution. If they aren’t, you might consider social media ads instead. Individuals on social media have less buying intent, but with highly targeted ads and enough impressions, you’ll gain the interest of your audience. “42 Ideas for Your 2021 Small Business Marketing Strategy” was shared on HubSpot. com.
