How Do You Drive Leads From Digital Advertising

February 7, 2017

Managing a digital advertising campaign correctly is the best way to drive new leads and sales to your business.   However, how do you know which online advertising methodology you should use and when?

Step 1 – Identify the Right Search Criteria

Selecting the correct keywords is key for a successful ad campaign. In addition to keywords, sophisticated advertising networks include various target metrics, e.g., location, interests, income, age and more.

Step 2 – Advertise On the Appropriate Ad Networks

When you understand your ideal customer and their varied personas, then you can make the most of your advertising budget by choosing to display your ads on the more responsive advertising platforms.

Step 3 – Install Campaign Tracking

Tracking keywords across networks and determining which combinations are converting the best allows you to optimize your campaigns. Additionally, by connecting your ads to your marketing automation process allows you to track and nurture leads over time.

Step 4 – Carry Out A/B Split Tests

Compare and improve your online ads by testing 1) offers, 2) landing pages, and 3) calls-to-action.  Measure the impact A/B testing has on your campaign results and improve your overall campaign conversion rate.

Step 5 – Measure, Improve, Repeat

You can’t fix what you don’t measure. By regularly analyzing your campaign metrics you can identify which strategies are driving conversions. Once you know this, you can align your ad spend to attain greater returns on your investment.

If you manage an efficient digital advertising campaign, you can increase leads and drive sales.
