Choosing a marketing pathway is tough! It can literally make or break a business. So we created this “Marketing Bible” to help you get it right the first time!

The Marketing Bible’s

SEO's Divine 9

Let’s see which of the 9
core marketing factors
are on your radar…

MARKET RESEARCH - Make sure you have a market!! You can use our competitor comparison tool to check how you compare to the top competitor in your field. Just enter the two domains and get some data back on some core differences. It will also let you know an expectation of click costs for your industry. If there is no market seeking your business, that’s ok it still may be valid by educating people via social media or direct contact channels such as LinkedIn’s Sales Navigator feature.
SCALABILITY - So often, completely overlooked, scalability can be the difference between A) having a business on the traditional battlefield we are typically accustomed to, or B) preparing yourself from the outset to be a National market leader with automated processes. The difference in initial outlay between the A and B can be virtually insignificant. The lifestyle & profit enhancement can be something else entirely. Scale concepts don't work for every business but its worthwhile raising the topic and seeing where it goes. We build dreams into reality btw!
BUDGET - Scared money don’t make money but we all have financial priorities. You should be setting A) a phase 1 budget $[ ]/month (make it significant but be sure to partner with a quality agency) and B) a percentage of marketing-generated-revenue for furthering the budget %[ ]. So place a value on a lead say $500 and when you get 10 of those a month you will put another 20% ($1000) onto the monthly budget. Enter the details into the blank fields above so we can group this into the outcome of your “Marketing Bible”. We have calculation tools available to assist you to get an idea of expected costs vs returns but nothing can replace a conversation now with an expert.
SYSTEMS - While this step is important it is also the point at which a lot of people get stuck and never get passed it. Choosing a CRM that connects to an accounting platform can help make light work of all your paperwork, finance management, communications & reporting. Need help with this? You’re in the perfect place! Select the big number 3 on the left and we will probably be able to guide you on the best & most affordable (possibly free) CRM for your needs (it’s probably not what you think).
BASE - Your marketing base is your logo, your marketing visuals and themes. What’s your angle, who are you, whats your point of difference, how does your product or service grab ATTENTION and why should someone be drawn to you when they are faced with 10 other options which all seem basically the same except for some highly competitive, far-reaching offers from businesses compete with you and are willing to DO MORE to get the business. Is the first sale the be all and end all? or do you have your CRM and follow up process concreted in place to expand on that sale and create ‘lifetime’ clients. Also what is the buying cycle, how long should you spend energies remaining in front of an opportunity and when should you let go. What are the steps of capture and release inside your marketing funnel framework.
CIRCLES - A lot of people hate developing social media but it doesn’t need to be as painful as you think. You don’t HAVE to engage constantly with posts to develop a following. The ‘followings’ are created for you you just have to follow the right groups and search a keyword in Facebook occasionally. It will show you your prospects. But don’t stop there! Take a screenshot of the opportunities and keep them in a folder so when you get a moment you can throw them all to your CRM, which you use to automate follow up and build those lifetime relationships. Expand the groups you follow. Expand the social platforms and if you go to the effort of telling one group about a product or service why not raise the same query or post the same post to a bunch of different avenues. Keep a record of your posts and post them again if they worked!
REMARKETING - You can’t re-market to people that are either not in your CRM or have not visited your website. Maybe you want to be guiding your social media acquaintances to a landing page specific to their query so that you can automatically re-market to them. Maybe you’ve got an Email or SMS campaign running but no specific landing page link for them to click so you are not capturing those that are interested in this particular offering and not able to then hone a strong re-marketing strategy to get the business in.
CONVERSIONS - Are your web-mails converting to sales? Do you record the successes of different lead sources? Is your website focusing on the wrong lead capture? Are you generating a REAL reason with urgency, for your website visitor to call you? When they do call whats your hit rate that buy? What are the reasons some don't buy instantly and what are your solutions to seal this up. Are you able to establish that your value is the best available such that the prospect agrees with you that it is the best option available? do you have sweetener prepared? Are you asking… “Is there something we can do to get your business now?”, How many people answer the phones, who has the best close rate, what does their follow up look like? Are you aware that “I need to ask the partner” simply means “I have an issue” so simply ask them “Ok, what would your partners issue be?” …and then help them to remove the issue.
VISIBILITY - Do you have visibility of your 3rd parties that are performing work for your websites? Are you paying them on a value based model or time for task.
Where possible: Work out what the tasks are, work out how many tasks can be achieved per hour, Work out what your expectation is and then make sure you have independent transparency on the work being delivered. Need suggestions? Tick the big number 9 to the left!

Business System

99% of business get the 1, 2, 3... the wrong way around. They launch into the market wanting:

  • Fast clicks
  • Optimise SEO later
  • When excess work comes in I'll worry about how to manage it.

Meanwhile, you are over spending on clicks because your landing pages arent converting, or being remembered, and don't have the respect of Google & Facebook so they are charging you twice as much as your top competitor!

02
Brand, Website & CRM

  • Memorable branding people return to
  • Free traffic & lead generation

A powerful website can launch into another city by adding a new page.

03
Cheaper Clicks

Now that you have your beautiful brand, your internal marketing & management systems, your fair share of free conversions from Google & Social Media, we can apply budget to the pay-per-click campaigns with confidence!

  • Free clicks
  • CRM lead generation & retention

Which Marketing Is For Me?

How do I know if I need Google Ads, SEO or Social Media marketing?

GOOGLE ADS

Google Ads is the perfect marketing tool for most businesses IF people are actively seeking your products and or services in large droves? Its a little bit of a numbers game where you may only be able to achieve a 5% click rate from people looking for your offerings. So you can get 5% of the whole market looking at our website relatively easily in most cases. That’s something right!!! But there are tricks to running Google Ads so it doesn't cost too much & you still get top page rank most of the time… - CHECK OUT OUR GOOGLE ADS CALCULATOR - You are likely better off paying an experienced tech to assist with this than wasting click costs learning. See details and pricing…

Read more
SEO

SEO is the perfect approach for most businesses who have people actively searching their offerings. Its particularly good if you are in a market which gets a lot of research traffic, for example “Bookkeeping”… this could be people that want to become a bookkeeper just as much as it could be people that are looking for a bookkeeper. So in that case you could get a lot of wasted clicks in the google ads environment and SEO costs nothing for clicks so it may be advantageous. - CHECK OUT OUR SEO CALCULATOR - To be successful in SEO be prepared for an investment in your website and time to climb the ranks. But scaling your business with SEO can literally cost NOTHING… See details & pricing…

Read more
SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING

Social Media is a truly wonderful marketing resource. You can target people seeking your offerings, you can arrange to re-market to them on that same platform and you can also educate people about your offerings if they would’t otherwise be inclined to go looking for it themselves. - CHECK OUT OUR SOCIAL MEDIA CALCULATOR - Social Media marketing is a realm which shouldn’t be ignored and should be tested for almost any business. There’s a little more detail here and pricing to follow…

THE MARKETING MINEFIELD

Finding the right marketer is tough! 100% but really only because a few big players give a bad name to many of the rest of us that toil the designs, knobs and codes all day every day. Avoid the big players, they are big because they care most for their own corporate targets. Avoid the very small as they are still learning their systems and may be stretched for applying appropriate time and energies into the right places.

SPECIALISTS

Everyone loves a specialist this is true but in today’s marketing environment it is typically NOT ideal to focus on any one sector. You need a marketing agency that has a broad vision and capabilities to match in design, PPC, SEO, Social, development & hosting. Todays market is largely managed by marketing professionals that are engaging in “omni-channel” approaches. Fall in line or fall behind.

Read more
KNOW IT ALLS

The truth is, marketing is generally about designing a strong base, having experienced professionals to tweak the buttons and the main thing is TESTING. Rarely will a marketer jump into a project knowing exactly what to do. The good ones don’t presume to know anything. We are essentially data analysts and we push traffic towards objectives and A/B test to see what the outcome was and if we wish to pursue that approach further or not. We wait for data and react, this is why things take time especially on small budgets.

Take Me To The Top!

What do I need to do to compete up there with my top competitor?

EVER HEARD OF SKY-SCRAPING?

Sky-scraping is a term used in SEO to describe the process of reviewing your competitor and simply doing a little more than them to try to step in front of them in rank. It's not a button, it will still require time for Google to asses you against the ladder and climb you up it but its a fantastic starting point and way of gaining confidence in an SEO marketing plan.

THE USUAL SUSPECTS

What we find time and time again is a) that people are building clunky sites using wordpress or wix. That's fine they are easy to build but check your performance by visiting our TOOLS TAB. b) people are blogging about the wrong things and c) the site has either essentially zero or too many low quality backlinks or no back-linking development being done progressively.

SOLUTIONS

At Sumo Media we prefer to hard code our websites so they are super clean and don't carry the unnecessary weight of DIY builder platforms and endless plugins. It doesn't even mean we are more expensive. What it means is you can have your site do anything you want. No crying about whats possible or available as a free plugin. Just tell us what you want and 99% of the time we can find the solution to that so that you have a flexible and powerful resource to continue expanding your websites engagement and lead capture capacities.

The 1904 Model

Will a car analogy get you over the line to stop reading and call us?

Your website is a Ford from 1904 but you want to race against Ferrari’s. It’s going to cost a lot more money to get your Ford to win compared to just buying the damn Ferrari.
Let's get you into the Ferrari on a term that makes sense for you, so it pays for itself and leads you to racetrack dominance.
