Your Digital Marketing Strategy in Australia is no different to another city or country, because put simply all our campaigns are driven by the same thing, Data. Hopefully you are aware of the basics of your business and by now you should realise that when it comes to your Digital Marketing Strategy there is a strong connection between your Australia Audience Knowledge and selecting the ideal Keywords. The keyword searches that a Google user will use are very individual and show not only intentions, but also vocabulary. Sometimes it can be a basic matter of recognizing how two people would review a similar product, such as ‘SEO services’ and ‘Website help’ while both terms may really apply to the same product line, if you don’t have a knowledge of the type of terminology your customer would use then you may miss a valuable opportunity for your Digital Marketing Strategy.
By understanding your target market, you can take the huge amount of keyword possibilities and filter it into what your customers would be most likely to use. By prioritising you can specialise your focus and save on wasted efforts. However, the main thing that I really want to stress is that you need to make sure that you handle this process correctly. Too many people try and create an Audience Profile and lose big because they give up too soon or do not know how to use it. So here are a few tips for you to consider when you start on your Australia customer profiles.
Often in the marketing world you will see that customer profiles will be created at a large expense to help with someone’s Digital Marketing Strategy only to sit idle and have no direct role. This occurs when the profile has not been created correctly, or has been created simply to tick a box and move on. Some of the reasons for this failure include:
Poor Data foundation:
If your data is not genuine, or is skewed by poor outcomes or bias, then your information is useless. You need to be focusing on the deep and actionable insights into the minds of your Australia customers or you will only have a superficial, perhaps even inaccurate depiction that is doomed to fail.
Profiles are not versatile:
If the profile is not well-rounded then it cannot be counted on to embody the actual body of your customer base. This stems from problems with limited or poorly retrieved sources for your customer base. Again, if a profile is not versatile, then they are just basic words on a page and cannot stand for your true Australia customer. Best answer to this, is to engage the services of someone with experience in this area of sales, (even better if it is SEO oriented) to ensure that you know that the drafted profile will be a dynamic, living embodiment of your actual audience; this is what will boost your Digital Marketing Strategy.
Too much data, no enough life:
If you have your profile simply as a list of dot points concerning age, gender, and income, then they are just another lot of statistics and not a profile. This ‘soul’ in your profile is what assists to show the motivations for the customer, just how they shop, how they think, and what they want. If you are reduced in the meaningful analysis then your team can’t be inspired into insights and the effectiveness of these profiles will be short-lived.
Focus shifts:
Some enterprises don’t use the profiles to their fullest potential because they don’t value the insights they supply. If you are simply doing this as a task to ‘tick off this to-do list’ and move on with your Digital Marketing Strategy, then regardless of how good your information is, you won’t be given the benefits. This comes down to culture and education, if you appreciate this process, your team will appreciate it and it will be managed with the respect really needed to actually see results.
By now it must be clear that an in-depth and detailed understanding of your Audience is critical to any business and essential to a successful SEO campaign.
