Customers: you need them. There is no doubt about that, but it can be tricky to work out how best to get them in a way that will not cost you more time or money than it needs to.
Luckily, we are in 2024, and customer acquisition has never been easier than it is right now thanks to technology. So, bearing that in mind, let’s take a look at some of the simplest methods you can use to boost customer acquisition right now:
Why start with business chat software?
Basically, it’s like having a friendly robot who never sleeps (creepy, but in a good way). This little gem allows you to engage with customers anytime, answering queries, providing information, and even cracking a joke or two. This means you can pick up customers at any time of the night or day, even if you do not have any staff working. Good, right?
Video content is king, and it’s time to claim your throne. Whether it’s tutorials, behind-the-scenes glimpses, or just you, having a natter about your latest product, video content can capture the attention of your audience like nothing else. So, you know you are going to want to invest in it in 2024.
This year might be the right time to team up with influencers. And no, they don’t all have to be Insta-famous with a gazillion followers. Micro-influencers in your niche can be just as effective. Why is this a good idea? Because people spend more time than ever watching people talk online, and those people have real power over their spending decisions. It’s just that simple.
With the magic of data analytics, it’s a smart decision to tailor your messages to fit your customer’s interests, browsing history, and even their dog’s birthday (okay, maybe not that specific). It shows you care, and who doesn’t like a bit of special attention?
Utilise social media stories. Why? Because these short, snappy updates are kinda like digital snacks for your audience – easily digestible and often moreish. Share updates, special offers, or just a quick ‘hello’ to keep your audience engaged.
Encourage user-generated content. It’s sort of like outsourcing your marketing to your customers but in a cool way. Run contests, ask for reviews, or just get them to share how they use your product. Nothing beats a recommendation from a real-life human.
You want your business to be as easy to find online as a bright red umbrella in a sea of black ones, so it’s time to sharpen your SEO skills. Use keywords wisely, optimize your website, and keep on top of those ever-changing algorithms.
Don’t underestimate the power of email marketing. It’s 2024’s comeback kid of digital marketing – still here, still relevant, and still capable of pulling in customers. Just keep it interesting, nobody likes a boring email.
