Most people feel that creating a website is no more difficult than creating an advertising campaign. But just because you've created an advertising campaign doesn't mean you won't make lots of common mistakes. There are so many common mistakes you can make if you don't know what you're watching for. The knowledge you need to find will depend heavily on your advertising strategy. So work on which advertising tactics you intend to use before you make any decisions. Below are three common mistakes you might want to avoid in your own advertising.
If you run space ads, try not to think that people want to see you or know who you are. You might want to resist putting your picture in an advertisement because you think people won't care. It's all about what you can do for them. That's why you're running the ads. Your goal of success has little to do with your outward appearance in an ad. Avoid putting your picture in the ad as it will only take up space. If you are well known, you should definitely do this. Other than that, write your copy and include your brand logo if you have one. You can work with your audience, getting them to respond by writing very targeted ads and using basic copywriting principles.
Trying to get your ads out for the widest possible approach is actually a mistake. Aiming your ads to an untargeted audience is actually wasting money, so avoid this. Always aim at a highly targeted audience that will increase your return on investment. Find places where you're most likely to reach your target audience and advertise there. When you find the right place, create an ad and test your results. Never throw your entire budget at a brand new campaign because you want to test and then scale it up later.
People that advertise, and it did not test their landing pages, stand to lose a lot. When it comes to your advertising, the first impression that people have your business is your landing page. If you want to optimize conversions, leads and sales, then performing split testing is a must. A/B split testing is how you will be able to compare one page to another. You need to start with your headline. This is what people see initially. It is extremely important to test the headline since it is the precursor to everything you sell.
If you truly want to succeed in business, you need to get over your fear of advertising, and thinking that you will lose, instead of win. All you have to do is learn the tips and tricks of advertising, the ones that work, in order to succeed with your ads. Sooner or later, it comes down to actually placing an ad. You need the experience, and with experience you will find success.
