How do you track the efficacy of these mediums? You don’t really (other than ratings) and it’s understandable why you can’t. When’s the last time you paused a TV commercial to write down the number? Pulled your car over to jot down the contact information from a radio ad? Hopefully you aren’t pulling out a pen and paper passing a billboard on the highway! These mediums are great for getting the word out about your business, but you’re casting a wide net, unable to gather any new information about your customers you don’t already know and most importantly, aren’t there at the point of need.

Remember the Yellow Pages? Those gargantuan books of phone numbers you could use as weights for your calisthenics? This was where people ended up when they actually needed the product or service you were offering in your TV & radio ads. This meant your business had to be here, and needed to stand out against the sea of other phone numbers all listed alphabetically and grouped by vertical. In other words, shoved between your competitors.

So you bought ads in the Yellow Pages to stand out. All kinds of different sizes and colors and you could even track how many phone calls you got from the ad because you could place a tracking number there to tell you. Yet, at the end of the day it was still a static ad that couldn’t adjust to the mindset of your consumers and still couldn’t tell you anything about them. Essentially, there was very little you could do to optimize the ad based on results.

Bottom line – with traditional advertising, you are PUSHING a message onto a large audience, some who might be potential buyers, but most who are not.

It’s not enough to just be at the top though, as Search Engine Advertising offers benefits and tools unmatched by any other marketing medium, and the right internet marketing team is the one that will take the time to use all of these resources to maximize results while minimizing cost. It all centers around optimization.
It starts by targeting need, with an experienced team knowing what terms potential customers use to find your products and services, and more importantly what they don’t use. With a highly targeted keyword list no longer are you paying upfront to just target demographics; with Pay-Per-Click you only pay when someone clicks your ad, not when it’s shown, so with the right targeting you can be certain you’re only spending money on the most qualified leads and not wasting it on people outside your service area.

A great internet marketing team also has the know-how to make your ads larger than your competitors with additional information. Where are you located? Are you a highly reputable business? Do you have a special offer? How can potential customers call you? This is all information that can be featured directly in the ad without the searcher even having to visit your website and can help you stand out from the competition.

If you’re campaign is set up correctly it should run pretty well, but a top notch internet ppc marketing team doesn’t stop there. You need to know exactly how many leads you’re getting, and most importantly what ads and keywords are generating these leads. A Pay-Per-Click campaign run by a savvy team can show you all of this with call recording and form tracking, proving you’re getting a quality return on your investment.

They can then use that information to optimize your campaign, spending your budget smarter to give you more leads for the same cost. If a certain ad, keyword or call to action is generating more leads, we can use certain tools to shift budget to those successful aspects of the campaign and away from less effective parts in real time, ensuring each dollar you’ve invested is working as hard as you did to earn it.

From lead tracking to need targeting, the myriad of advantages Search Engine Advertising offers over other forms of media can be summed up in one term: optimization. The right internet marketing team is the one that can take your marketing budget and make it work more effectively for you over time, not throw it at the wall and hoping something sticks. If you’re not already at the top of search engines taking advantage of the benefits Search Engine Advertising has to offer, the time to find your team is now.
