In nearly all cases implementing a strong Search Engine Optimization (SEO) program should come BEFORE spending much time or money on Social Networking. Understanding (and usually improving) the 'conversion ratio' of your website (the percentage of visitors who become customers, leads or opt-ins) is essential before spending much time or money on traffic building. |
As your Internet marketing consultant or coach I will steer you in the right direction.
When you get those offers in your e-mail that you are just not sure about, is it a good deal or a scam? When you have questions about whether you should spend money on Google Ads, the Yellow Pages or a local newspaper website- I'll tell you the experiences my clients have had and I'll make sure systems are in place to measure the results. You WILL know what is profitable for you and what is not!
'Thanks to your marketing efforts we are now getting approximately 50% more inquires per month from our website.' |
I have been a very sought after Internet marketing speaker since 1996, in many years I deliver 70 to 90 live presentations. I love speaking at conferences and conventions but here's what I know with absolute certainty- as good, and as helpful, as 60 minutes or 90 minutes of training can be, it pales in comparison to weeks and months of personal one-on-one coaching.
'Internet Marketing Group was consulted in the development of a quality website for our organization which consistently helps us stand out in the market place and be selected as the provider of choice.' |
Once I have a completed a SWOT Analysis of your website and other Internet marketing channels (social marketing, e-mail, PPC, etc.) I will immediately make suggestions. As your consultant / coach I look for the 'low hanging fruit', that is, I identify the things that can be done that will have the most significant impact on your bottom-line profits and we start there.
'Thank you very much for our website analysis, It was very informative, detailed, and inspirational. We are implementing all of your suggestions.' |

It’s been 25 years since CERN made the Word Wide Web technology available to everyone royalty free. The internet has come a long way since then, now allowing us to look at photos of other people’s food, watch animals do silly things, keep up with your friends and family, and order things from the comfort of the sofa.

By changing the way people buy, the internet has changed marketing.
As a result, businesses have had to change the way they market themselves and sell to take advantage of the latest technology and consumers shopping habits.
Make your marketing work more for you and your business. Talk to us and let’s see where we can help
Those that failed to do that went out of business, such as HMV (though they have since returned), Jessops, Comet, and Woolworths, who all disappeared from the British high street in the past few years.
Let’s take a more detailed look at how the internet has changed marketing.
How the internet has changed marketing with Websites
Anyone can set up a website now, which has given businesses an easy way to reach their target audience and explain how their products and services can solve their problems.
When someone recognises a want or need, their search for the solution will often begin online.
In 2014, research found that 81% of shoppers conduct online research before making a purchase.
If your company hasn’t got a website, your target audience are unlikely to find out. As consumers we’re quite lazy and want businesses to provide us with all the information for us to peruse at our leisure, rather than us having to go through the yellow pages, or walk up and down the high street trying to find someone who sells what we’re looking for.
In fact, we don’t even want to work that hard to find information when we’re searching for it on the internet from the comfort of our home.
Reviews
The research process often involves reading or watching reviews from professionals and fellow consumers to help us evaluate which product is best for us. A study in 2014 found that 61% of people read product reviews before making a purchase.
There are multiple places we can find reviews for products we’re searching for, including:
- Websites that sell the product / service – both your actual website, and third-party sites you may sell through like Amazon or Etsy
- Impartial review sites like TripAdvisor, or Yell
- Blogs
- YouTube
All of these things allow us to figure out which product will meet our need, and we will probably spend more time watching reviews than actually looking at the product on the seller’s website.
On top of all of this, businesses now need to make sure that they have a responsive website to fit the demands of consumers. In the UK, the smartphone is the most popular device people use to access the internet. Those businesses who don’t keep up and have a responsive website could find themselves falling behind.
E-commerce
Without the internet you couldn’t: order presents online, buy a DVD cheaper than it’s sold for in physical stores, buy a book and begin reading it in seconds, or order takeaway food without having to speak to someone on the other end of the phone.
The internet has allowed business owners to escape the risk and expensive costs of owning a physical shop. A website is cheaper in comparison, and allows businesses to reach more people.
Physical stores are geographically restricted, but on the internet you can reach and sell to people all over the globe. On top of that, you can sell or receive enquiries 24/7.
For business owners, a website is an absolute no brainer. Why wouldn’t you want to be able to receive orders outside of business owners and not be restricted by your location?
Business can reach more people, and customers can shop without leaving the house – everyone’s a winner.
How the internet has changed marketing using advertising
The first advertising banner went live in 1994, and Google AdWords was born in 2000, allowing businesses to advertise and reach their target audience based on the keywords they searched for and the websites they visited.
Online advertising isn’t limited to search engines and websites anymore, adverts are now found on:
- Social networks
- In apps
- Music streaming services, like Spotify
- On devices – Amazon’s Kindle Fire shows adverts on the lock screen unless you pay to remove them
Businesses can now target and retarget their audience with adverts based on their demographics, websites they’ve visited, things they’ve searched for, and more.
Social media
Social media provides businesses with yet another way to reach, target, and communicate with their audience.
As well as allowing businesses to communicate with their audience, it’s another way of encouraging your audience to visit your website.
Businesses can also use social media as a customer service method, meaning they can quickly address and resolve issues without the customer having to send an email or make a phone call. As well as helping individual customers with their issue, it can also make the company look good if they handle it particularly well.
Social commerce even allows people to buy a product without even visiting the businesses website.

Email marketing
While email was certainly around long before the internet, email marketing as we know it today wouldn’t exist without the internet. Without it, how would businesses collect contact information?
Email marketing has evolved to allow businesses to do a lot, such as:
- Letting customers know about special offers
- Introducing new products and services
- Making personalised recommendations based on previous purchases or searches
- Share tips to get more out of a product and service
- Encourage customers to leave reviews and refer others
- Invite people to events
… and it works!
Analytics
Internet Marketingchâ U Thô Ng Phan 1
One of the best things about using the internet for marketing is that you can nearly always track your activities and ask yourself ‘so what?’ This means businesses can easily identify what activities are working well, which ones aren’t, which helps them to learn more about their audience and market to them better.
The internet has changed marketing, the way businesses sell, and the way people buy hugely, and it’s still continuing to do so. Successful businesses will be ones who keep up with the way that consumers are buying.
