The Power of Online Advertising

Did you know 90% of consumers research products and services online before making a purchase decision? 

It is our goal to help local and national businesses understand the value of advertising online. Did you know with online advertising you can target specific audiences more precisely and measure the impact of those specific ads?  Digital advertising has come a long way in the past decade – and businesses are just now realizing their potential online. The online marketing industry is extremely complex, but those that keep up with the trends reap the many benefits.

According to a recent report conducted by ZenithOptimedia’s new Advertising Expenditure Forecasts, “the Internet remains one of the biggest advertising mediums and is expected to surpass traditional television.” Marketing Land reported that “US Internet ad revenues are up 19% in half of 2015, mainly driven by mobile, social, and video“. So what does this all mean for local and national businesses?

– Google Says Micro Moments Are The New Path To Purchase. Your business mindset needs to be mobile to successfully reach your audience. 

The Internet has reshaped the advertising platform, making it easier for consumers to find you. Consumers are connected at all times, constantly seeking out information on your business and the products/services you offer – do you immediately deliver exactly what those consumers are searching for at the exact moment they are searching? Consumers want information at their fingertips and they want that information almost immediately!

“Of online consumers, 69% agree that the quality, timing, or relevance of a company’s message influences their perception of a brand.”

Online advertising gets your business in front of your audience at the exact moment they are searching for you. If you have an optimized website and you are using Google advertising mediums you will connect with those consumers that are searching for your business online. Some of the benefits of Online Advertising:

90% of Purchasing Decisions Start with Search Engines
