October 23, 2010 by · Leave a Comment 

If you are in the business of online advertising or digital marketing, and are either experienced or even a rookie, then attending a digital marketing trade show will be the best way to kick start your career. While the need for better strategies will continue to be a need amongst clients who would like to make their presence felt over the internet, the truth is that it is only in sharing best practices and healthy networking that can result in internet marketing success.

While these trade shows occur throughout the year, one primary feature of the Ad-Tech trade show in San Francisco this year will have speakers talking about various topics, one being online publishers while also showcasing emerging trends in online advertising and digital marketing in regards to new technology as well as strategies.

Not only will digital marketers and online advertisers be able to network with folks in their own industry but they will also get the opportunity to listen to speakers that are considered as experts in the industry as well. In addition, the exhibition will also provide visitors with new technology, and in the case of the San Francisco conference that will happen this year, one such company that will provide details of its tool will be offered at the innovation alley.

The two most popular Ad-tech tradeshows are normally conducted each year in New York and San Francisco, and so if you want to be visible to several client that participate in this show, then it will be a good idea to book a seat for yourself.

Almost every digital marketer worth his salt knows that even though the company he works for guards their secrets like Fort Knox, there comes a time when it is time to share this learning with their competitors or with the players in the market in the form of a digital marketing expo.

This is a time when digital marketers in any part of the world can get together to share best practices as well as learn something new about their professional lives through the guest speakers, networking contacts, exhibitions and the like at an advertising expo.

Seven Mistakes to Avoid in Email Marketing

November 23, 2009 by · Leave a Comment 

Perhaps one of the most important tasks in email marketing is to maintain an email list, and this means adding potential customers while retaining the ones that are already on this list. But in playing the role of an email marketing manager, there are mistakes that you can make which will cause these potential customers to unsubscribe from your mailing list.

While you don’t need to know too much to add people on to your list, there are some things to keep in mind when sending emails about your products or services. Here is a list of mistakes that you should avoid in email marketing:

Mistake #1: Send them emails every day

Not only do these customers receive email from you, but also from other email lists that they’ve been added to. If you send them emails every day, there’s every chance that they will unsubscribe from your list, thanks to your using your email marketing software package as often as possible.

Mistake #2: Push your products

Most customers sign up on your mailing list to know more about a product before actually buying it. Pushing your products is anything but a surefire way for them to like your products. In fact, you’ll put them off immediately.

Mistake #3: Watch the language that you use in the email

While some emails that you receive will use the phrase ‘my friend’, this sounds hypocritical since you don’t share a personal relationship with him or her. On the other hand, some people like to use cool and informal terms that might not sit well with people who are older.

Mistake #4: Lack of valuable information and aesthetic value

If you send them information that they already know, with nothing new to offer, then this will encourage your readers to unsubscribe from your mailing list. Spicing it up in terms of content (you can find email writing tips as well as a variety of newsletter templates) and aesthetics is the way to go if you want to keep your customers from clicking the unsubscribe button.

Effective Trade Show Displays

September 20, 2009 by · Leave a Comment 

Attending a trade show is one of the best ways to survive in a competitive market. However, there is one drawback to trade show displays: time. Companies only have a few seconds to make a strong first impression and convey their message to attract consumers.

In order to be effective, your next trade show exhibit should be dazzling, professional and unique. While there are many types of trade show displays on the market today, here’s a look at two must-have displays that will garner the attention your company deserves.

Custom vinyl banners: Take your trade show exhibit to the next level with vibrant vinyl banners. Versatile and affordable, a vinyl banner is the perfect solution to showcase your message, products or services. Vinyl banners come in different sizes and can be custom-printed to include your logo and a unique message. After the trade show, don’t forget to reuse your banners to promote a sale or special event.

Curved trade show displays: Convey your message on an eye-catching, curved trade show display. Unlike the traditional (and overused) straight display, a curved display offers just the right amount of flash without going over the top. Curved displays are available in three and four panel sizes and with the choice of no end caps, end caps, printed end caps and plain end caps. What’s more, store fixtures are easy to transport and set up. Most packages come with a frame, three printed banners and two halogen lights.
