Secret #1: Clarify Your Marketing Message
The Problem: Sending Confusing/Unclear/Mixed Marketing Messages
Consumers shouldn’t have to work hard to understand what your company does. If you’re sending mixed marketing messages and your customers have to essentially decipher a code just to understand what your company does you’ve lost them as a future customer.
Most customers are selfish, they only care about one thing – themselves. They are coming to you ONLY to solve their problem. So if you are bragging about how great your company is and not telling them how they will benefit. They will not understand the benefits of your business and will immediately move on to your competitors.
An unclear marketing message will not only confuse your customers but also your employees. Your employees might be feeling ununited and unmotivated at work. They know what they need to accomplish on the day to day, but they might be missing the big picture. Employees want to understand what the company’s goals are and how they are contributing to those goals.
This problem extends further than just your current employees. Are you having trouble attracting employees that want to work hard? Or you may be having trouble retaining employees for the long-term? The reason for your troubles lies in the fact that you don’t have a clear marketing message. To attract and retain the best employees they need to know that they will become an integral part of your company’s mission.

Secret #2: Redesign Or Update Your Website
The Problem: An Unprofessional/Unfunctional/Unfinished Website
An unfinished and unprofessional website will immediately turn away potential customers. If your website looks like a DIY craft project chances are your potential customers are hitting the back button and never looking back.
The most fatal mistake that you can make on a website is that it’s not functioning. If your links aren’t working or if your website is unformatted, disorganized or loads slowly your future customers won’t want to do business with you. The harsh truth is that consumers judge the efficacy of your services by the picture you paint for them on your website. If they aren’t pleased by that picture they won’t think twice about you.
Remember what we said about a clear marketing message. Well that message needs to be explicitly displayed on your website as well. If it takes your customers longer than 5 seconds to figure out how you can help them they will lose interest. Let’s do a quick test. Show your website to a stranger for 5 seconds and see if they can tell you how you help your potential customers. If they can’t tell you after looking at it for just 5 seconds, you have a big problem.

The Problem: Your Potential Customers Can Not Find You On Google
Now how do we get more visitors to your newly designed website? With SEO! Business owners think of SEO as a mystery, but it is an important aspect of any successful marketing strategy. The truth is, if you aren’t ranking on Google you don’t exist. When people search for your product or service they won’t find your company if you aren’t on the first page of search results. Having a website is important, but it is good for nothing if people can’t find it.

To make it worse, your competition is stealing those customers from you simply because they were at the top of search results and you weren’t.

People rely on the results from search engines to learn more about products and services and to find companies to work with. To prove just how important SEO is as a marketing tool here are some facts. More than 67% of all clicks go to the first five search results and the average user never goes past the first 5 listings.

Secret #4: Build A Sales Funnel & Lead Generator
The Problem: Not Being Able to Convert Website Visitors to Customers
Now that you have brought new visitors to your website how do you make them take action and convert them into a customer? A sales funnel and lead generator are crucial for converting leads. Thousands of people could be looking at your website everyday, but research shows that 79% of leads are never converted into sales. Without a sales funnel and lead generator you are losing out on the chance to convert free leads into sales.
Currently, you don’t know who is looking for your product or service and you don’t know how to capture them before they move on to the next company. Sometimes customers don’t buy the first time they interact with a company. They need some more information and a little push. Without a well designed sales funnel you are missing the opportunity to be there for the customer when they choose to buy. You are letting your company be forgotten and losing customers to competitors.

Secret #5: Reviews and Reputation Management
The Problem: You Aren’t Properly Managing Your Company’s Online Reviews and Reputation
Reading a negative review can instantly turn customers away from your business and on to the next company. Even worse, they now have a negative perception of your company. With the growth of social media and third-party review websites maintaining a positive online reputation is more important than ever.
Did you know the average consumer reads at least 6 reviews before choosing to give their business to a company? Which is why you need to not only minimize negative reviews but drastically increase positive reviews. Having very few reviews sends a bad signal to customers. They automatically begin thinking that the product or service you sell is not successful. Imagine if a company had 10 positive reviews and another company had 240 positive reviews you’d obviously go for the company with 240 reviews because they have built trust and credibility.
Now, let’s say you have a bunch of happy customers but they aren’t leaving you reviews. That’s because it is time consuming for them, so you need to make it easy and convenient for them to write reviews.
The Solution: Let Wahi Digital Marketing Take Care of Your Reviews and Reputation Management System
At Wahi Digital Marketing we help you get more positive reviews from your customers. The best part about our reputation and review management system is that it is done-for-you.
