Depending on your industry and the products and services you sell it can often be highly unadvisable to inject all of your advertising funds into one advertising project. Unless you are a well established online business such as play.com or amazon.com then you may well consider offline methods of advertising such as newspapers and other media avenues.
Even the large retailers such as mainstream supermarkets, clothing/fashion companies and electrical goods manufacturers still rely heavily on methods of advertising other than the internet.
Ebay, one of the world’s most commonly used online auction sites, advertises their services on terrestrial TV networks around the globe in addition to maintaining a high profile search engine optimisation campaign and affiliations with search engines to remain in good positions across the net.
So in these cases, deciding on your marketing strategies is a complex business, choosing the right mediums such as SEO and Google Adwords for online purposes and offline media channels such as magazines, specialist monthly subscriptions, TV and Radio, local flyers and posters and much more.
All go to making your business as visible to potential clients as possible and the advice is to ask advice from different sectors to find the most suitable balance for you.
