DIGITAL MARKETING FOR BEGINNERS: START MAKING A PLAN

For all clients and non-clients of the e-commerce agency e-Plus, we recommend developing a Marketing and Media Plan before carrying out any type of online and/or offline advertising. This is because this type of planning generally results in better performance.

According to Sebrae, a good planning of this type must have three steps:

01 - Planning:

At this stage, you should create an executive summary, analyze the business environment, and define your target audience. Additionally, you should define a market positioning, develop your e-commerce brand , create achievable goals, and develop a marketing strategy and mix.

This is where you should work with the 4Ps: Product, Price, Place, and Promotion. And for Digital Marketing purposes, also use the 8Ps, about which you can learn more by clicking on " What is Digital Marketing ".

02 - Implementation:

Time to transform what was planned in the previous phase into actions. This is the time to define the activities that should be carried out in practice. But not only that, it is also necessary to stipulate when, how and who will do it, in addition to the estimated cost.

For this purpose, budget tables are used. With them it is possible to distribute the promotion actions of your virtual store for every day and month of the year. That is, you program and know in advance everything you are going to accomplish and the results you should achieve.

03 - Control:

Stage in which you will evaluate, control and optimize Marketing campaigns on several fronts. When I say several I'm talking about offline media, but mainly online.

Speaking of online, check out in the next topic which are the main means of dissemination used in Digital Marketing today. Take advantage of each of them to put your online store in the spotlight.
