Advertising – Target Your Audience
Lately you have been hearing a lot about targeted
advertising. To convert a major percentage of your site
visitors into buyers and maximize the return on your
advertising dollar you need to target your
advertising. But what is targeted advertising? To
gain insight you first need to answer the following
questions:
-Is your product gender related? (males, females or
both)
-Is your product age related? (Toddlers, kids, teens,
young adults, the middle ages, elders)
-Which particular interest group will your product
appeal to most? (Home, entertainment, education,
personal, Health, small business, corporations etc.)
-Who will most likely buy your product? (School kids,
parents, home based moms, nurses etc.)
If you have answered all the above questions, you will
realize that for instance if you are selling toddlers
toys, its a waste of your money and efforts to
advertise in business magazines. To be sure you might
make some sales if you advertise persistently but you
won't get a good return on your investment.
