5 Surefire Ways to Revitalize Your Marketing Efforts
The year is underway, you may be asking yourself if your company’s marketing is living up to its' fullest potential. Are you in a rut? Have sales been lagging or are your leads drying up? Here are five specific areas to focus on when it’s time to breathe some new life into your sales and marketing tactics.
1. Evaluate Your Lead Conversion
Are your customers responding to your current marketing efforts in significant ways? You may be getting decent web traffic but it doesn’t mean much if you aren’t converting those leads to sales. Find out where your sales cycle is breaking down — is your site hard to navigate or slow to load? Do you have qualified staff answering calls and converting leads properly? Do you have an effective system in place for following up with email inquiries?
Write down your workflow processes and brainstorm with your team to find any gaps. Explore new ways to improve efficiency and maximize those lead conversions every step of the way. Sometimes a few small, significant changes can help invigorate your ROI.
Measuring the Success of Your Trade Show Marketing
Trade show season in full swing, you may be wondering if all your time, planning and cost is worth it. Maybe you’ve participated out of habit or because of perceived benefit, but now you want to analyze the true cost-benefit and make sure you’re actually achieving the ROI you need.
There’s no doubt trade shows and conventions are excellent venues for making important contacts. Sometimes, these connections alone may be enough to justify your involvement. But if you’re budgeting to fully promote your trade show presence (which you should!) then you want to make sure those marketing dollars are well spent.
First, you’ll want to determine your specific measure of tradeshow success. Define your company’s unique parameters before the planning stage so you can target your marketing efforts with these goals in mind.
SunDance Becomes HIPAA Compliant
SunDance is proud to announce we’ve met requirements for HIPAA privacy and security compliance, demonstrating our ongoing commitment to maintaining the confidentiality of our healthcare clients and their patients.
HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996) is U.S. government legislation that provides data privacy and security provisions for safeguarding medical information. The HIPAA Privacy Rule addresses the saving, accessing and sharing of medical and personal information of any individual.
Being a HIPAA compliant printer means our healthcare clients can send patient specific mailings, invoices, etc, with peace of mind their patient information is safe and being handled responsibly within government regulations. This eases the burden on their staff, allowing them to focus on what matters most, their patients. It’s just another way SunDance makes printing easy.
Target Local Prospects with Geo Mapping Direct Mail
Geo mapping is a dynamic way to incorporate personal location-based information into your direct mail campaigns. SunDance uses variable data to match your customer’s address with your nearest business location, and includes this important information on your mail piece—complete with a map and directions from the recipient’s home to your location.
By using variable geo mapping data, you can make it easier for your potential customers to find your business. This can prove incredibly useful in increasing traffic and boosting brand awareness on a local level. With geo mapping, you can include accurate directions and contact information of your closest location, without having to take up valuable space with multiple addresses or confusing directions. The highly targeted information is the most relevant to your potential customer and enhances the overall effectiveness of the direct mail piece.
