Dear Caroline, |
| Traditional
marketing and online marketing, using one or the other
is not your only choice. This week I covered ways
for you to integrate both online and offline marketing,
happily together. I also covered how to use typically
online tools offline. Online, offline, traditional
or not mixing your marketing techniques can only bring
you big benefits.
As Always, Happy Marketing!

| When
we speak of article marketing we typically mean online.
Internet businesses have used article marketing as
a way to build links to their web properties and to
drive traffic to landing pages and it's a very effective
method of marketing. Your business can benefit from
article marketing online and offline and use both
strategies to compliment each other. If you run an
online business then you can still use offline marketing
tactics to get people to visit your website. Article
marketing is effective online as well as offline.

Online publicity is more than simply writing up
a press release and sending it out to distribution
websites. For starters, you can include in your
press release for distribution some graphics, audio
files, and video. I highly recommend multimedia
press releases online. If you own a blog, and you
should, upload your video to YouTube and embed it
on your blog. Continue

This tool is a great tool to help you do better

Traditional marketing methods
will still need to be employed to reach that generation.
Marketers have always segmented their target markets.
That means you can still reach them through online
marketing if your marketing message is effective
and carefully packaged to appeal to that group.
Integrated marketing is the next wave of online
business marketing. While online marketing works
for some groups, it doesn't work everywhere and
for everyone. Even younger generations still read
magazines and do off line shopping; you'll still
need to reach them through traditional methods
of marketing. Continue

that still work.

Online,
especially, copywriting is more about conveying
information and developing relationships more than
simply selling. You have to build their trust before
you can ask for their business and to build trust
you have to have copy that lets them know who you
are, what your values are, and how you conduct business.
Website copywriting can come in different forms
and tones. People like that. People know you're
human. Continue
