1) Do you know your target customer's habits?
Think about it, which of these activities are your customer's engaged in on a typical day?

  • Searching, surfing, researching online
  • SMS
  • Email
  • Reading Hardcopy Newspaper
  • Reading Online News
  • Reading Magazines
  • Watching TV

Consumer Behaviour 101
Surveys shows that consumers nowadays spend as much time online as on TV. In fact, the typical Singaporean teenager, does 5 things at the same time. Watch TV, surf, sms, chat, listen to MP3 at the same time.

Generic Push Advertising Vs Personalised Pull Advertising
All this time, advertising has been very costly to produce, and mass market one size fits all marketing. In tomorrow's advertising, it is more of a customised one-on-one advertising to suit individual preferences, and it can be done at low creative cost. More and more companies are marketing towards the individual now instead of to the masses.

2) Which Media Should I Advertise On?
There is no best advertising media to recommend, what you should consider is which advertising media gets your TARGET customer's attention i.e. what are your customer's habits.

How do you know which one best fits your business? TEST, TEST and TEST.

SEM Strategy: Assuming your customer's can be reached via the Internet


Preparation Before You Advertise Online
You absolutely need to have a GOOD website / blog / online store before beginning.

The Basic Principle:
If your sales person is not well trained or looks unprofessional, don't expect to be closing too much sales from customers entering your shop.

The same goes for your website, which is your sales person.

3) Basics Of A Business Generating Website
