1. MORE AFFORDABLE THAN TRADITIONAL MARKETING

 

Compare to traditional marketing budget, Digital marketing costs much less . Take online paid advertising methods (such as social media advertising or pay-per-click (PPC) advertising) for example. The cost on the average is under a dollar per person who clicks on your ad. This is great way to generate leads and helps you control advertising costs.  With PPC advertising, for every $1 spent on advertising you get $8 dollars in return on the average. Now combined with the far-reaching, advanced audience targeting that digital marketing allows, you will be getting the most out of your advertising budget.

 

1. REACH GLOBAL BEING LOCAL

 

Digital marketing not only helps you break geographical barriers but also helps you break the stereotypes of being a local business. and allows you to. You can expand your business and reach a global audience, from anywhere provided you have your computer device and connection to a decent internet. By global audience, we do not imply that you reach to everyone worldwide. We mean that you can  focus only on the potential target audience across the world  instead of targeting the mass audience.

 

1. HIGH CONVERSION RATE

 

With Optimization of Conversion Rate, your small-scale business can reach out to a higher number of visitors so that you may reach your target goal

The conversion rate is the percentage of visitors to your website who took the desired action. And using digital marketing for your small business will increase the conversion rate. 

You can achieve such objectives with pay-per-click (PPC) strategy for example.  It is an internet advertising model to drive traffic to the websites. Here you as an advertiser pay a publisher (typically a search engine, website owner, or a network of websites) when your ad is clicked. This is one of the ways you can increase the number of customers, by increasing your conversion rate. 

 

1. Allows For Efficient Tracking for Future Campaigns 

 

When it comes to traditional marketing, you’ll never know certain information like which strategy and campaign have brought you the highest ROI. Measuring which strategy has brought more audience or how many people showed interest in a product, becomes very difficult for traditional marketing.

But, through digital marketing, it gets very easy to track this information and use it for future needs. Finding about your customers, geographical locations, demographics, or how much time they spent on your website, etc. becomes very easy with the help of analytics tools.

Hence instead of spending money blindly in channels that bring no result, Digital Marketing helps you spend your money only on those campaigns that work for you, especially when you are a small business with a tight budget in hand.

 

1. Digital marketing offers measurable ROI

 

The biggest advantage that digital marketing offers for a small business is that it offers credible ways to measure what’s working, what’s not, and why. This enables small business to  invest a small fraction of its marketing budget in online marketing, see the outcome, learn from it before going all-out and becoming more invested. Digital Marketing helps in reducing costs of service or costs related to products.
