The Art of Selling in New Age

Selling something is considered to be a true art form and as time flows it can be improved to a great extend. Different ways of marketing techniques will be of large favour to improve the sales of the service or products that you are providing. In this era of digitisation, for improving your sales you have to know about the possibilities of digital media and the ways to access.

So here we are including some of the new methods that can be being used for good sales in this digital era:

Online Advertising and sales



The fastest and easiest way to reach your target consumers is through online. Posting ads with contact number on various websites which receives heavy traffic is one of the widely adapted way of advertising your product. If it is attractive then people might get interested enough to take a look at it and many may even contact you for the service or product.



Brochures or flyers





This is another effective way of getting your customers. We can make it contain great amount of informations. If designed well and is attractive it might also give some valuable customers also. It is becoming as a very common method for advertising these days.




Bulk messaging


To attract more consumers we can also send bulk messages by mail or whatsapp to targeted audience. If you are going for direct mails then you have to collect addresses from customers by noticing addresses on their checks, asking them to fill out information cards, etc. You can also send bulk mails using e-mail softwares to many people at a time also. 


Advertising on social networking sites




This has become one of the major platform for digital marketing purpose. Advertising on sites like Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, Youtube, etc. are very easy to do for very little cost. It also provides us with good results as major part of the world population are using any of these social sites.





Cell Phone & Mobile Advertising


It is relatively a new form of advertising compared to the others, but it has a major role in the media mix having cell phones, iPads, Kindles, Nooks, and other portable electronic devices with Internet connectivity. Recent trends in mobile advertising involve the major use of social media such as Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, and Facebook and the reach is very good.



Print Advertising


Once a huge driver of sales, print is taking a back seat to the many digital forms of advertising now available to marketers. However, if there is one thing that's certain about advertising, it's that being different is good. And when consumers tire of digital ads, a return to printed pieces, and the tactile feeling and permanence they provide, is definitely on the cards. Typically, print can be split into three sub-categories:

Periodical Advertising

If it's in a magazine, a newspaper, or anything else that comes out at regular intervals, then it's periodical advertising (aka a print ad). For decades, print ads were the gold standard for advertisers and their clients. To grab the centre spread of a big magazine or the back cover of a newspaper, meant millions of people were seeing the message. 

Guerrilla Advertising

Also known as ambient media, guerrilla advertising (or marketing) has become prominent over the last 20 years. It is a broadly used term for anything unconventional and usually invites the consumer to participate or interact with the piece in some way. Location is important, as is timing. The driving forces behind guerrilla advertising or marketing are creative ideas and innovation, not a large budget. Quite often, you will ask for forgiveness rather than permission with these campaigns, and they will spread via word of mouth and social media.

Broadcast Advertising

A mass-market form of communication including television and radio, broadcast advertising has, until recently, been the most dominant way to reach a large number of consumers. Broadcast advertising has really taken a beating over the last few years, especially with the rise of DVRs and "ad skipping" technology. However, it is still a popular way to reach millions of people, especially when the Super Bowl comes around. 

Outdoor Advertising

Also known as out-of-home (OOH) advertising, this is a broad term that describes any type of advertising that reaches the consumer when he or she is outside of the home. You will know it as billboards, bus shelter posters, fly posters, and even those big digital boards in Times Square.

Public Service Advertising

Unlike traditional commercials, Public Service Advertisements (PSA) are primarily designed to inform and educate rather than sell a product or service. PSAs traditionally appear on TV and radio but are also being heavily promoted online these days. 

Product Placement Advertising

In a nutshell, product placement is the promotion of branded goods and services within the context of a show or movie, rather than as an explicit advertisement. If you have ever seen a movie and wondered "wow, they sure are driving a lot of Ford cars in this scene," or "does everyone in this TV show drink Pepsi?" then you are noticing product placement. It's a way that these films and shows get funding, and is a great way for advertisers to reach a targeted demographic.
