Don’t reduce your marketing spend during the pandemic
B
ased on recent research from the World Federation of Advertisers (WFA), 90 per cent of major global brands are cutting down on their ad spend for at least six months, but is this the right step? The pandemic affected all businesses, large and small, around the world, and their instinct is to cut down on expenses to save money. As the industry struggles with the possibility of an ad recession, ad budgets are expected to drop by 36 per cent in the first half of the year and 31 per cent for the entire year. Skimping on ad expenses during the pandemic seems to be the logical move, however it can be detrimental to your business growth. Only a small percentage of businesses are taking the ‘seize the opportunity’ approach and continue to invest more in marketing. And this decision is more due to instinct than an actual strategy. Why should businesses invest more during a crisis?
It is a good opportunity to reach out to your target market and engage with your customers. You also need to constantly communicate with your existing customers to improve brand loyalty.
Marketing plays a critical role in retaining customers and building brand value
Your marketing doesn’t have to be expensive, with great value offerings available to businesses.
Marketing during pandemic positions you as the top-of-mind brand Being in front of your potential customers, even during slow seasons, does not mean that you’re wasting money. In fact, it is a good chance to introduce your brand and reinforce your online presence since most businesses are laying low. When your customers are ready to purchase, you will definitely be their first option. Marketing ensures business survival This is because you continue to reach out to potential customers and improve your reputation through marketing. Remember, your customers are your lifeline. You won’t be able to survive if you stop engaging with them.
