That\u2019s a lot of money. Statistics like this show us just how high the demand is for digital advertising solutions, and just how successful digital advertising can be in terms of acquiring new customers for local businesses. Digital advertising is becoming a necessary addition to every marketer\u2019s toolkit! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So how do companies leverage digital advertising to acquire new customers, revenue, and generate massive online engagement? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have the answers (and <strong>examples<\/strong>) from businesses that have successfully harnessed the power of digital advertising with the help of our <a href=\"\/matchcraft\/#matchcraft-services\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">digital advertising team<\/a>!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><a href=\"\/matchcraft\/#matchcraft-services\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Our white label digital advertising team can get your clients stellar results under your brand!<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how\"><strong>How Does Digital Advertising Help a Local Business?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Digital advertising increases awareness\u2014it&#8217;s that simple. Digital advertising consists of a range of services, all of which work to promote a business online. Most advertising companies and marketing agencies in the digital realm offer a variety of services, but are not able to offer a full-stack of digital solutions to local businesses. With the help of a digital advertising team, your business is able to expand its offerings and get your clients\u2019 business in front of customers. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More and more businesses are increasing the amount that they spend on digital advertising, and experts like Jamie Turner suggest digital advertising on social platforms is well worth the spend.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best part about digital advertising for local businesses is that they can see <em>direct results<\/em>. No business wants to invest in any form of advertising without a little ROI, right? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With traditional media channels, there is sometimes no way of tracking the effectiveness of an advertisement in terms of advanced data analytics. With digital advertising, companies like Google and Facebook allow users to access advanced analytics. This way, the local business knows that their money is being well spent and that the digital advertisements are positively impacting their storefront. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When determining the success of an ad, the important factors will differ case by case. For the most part, the success of an ad lies in the indicators listed below. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ROI indicators\/measures of a successful campaign: <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Impressions<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: the actual # of views on an advertisement<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Clicks<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: the actual # of direct clicks on the advertisement<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Engagements<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Social &amp; landing page clicks<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Results<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: In most cases, results come in the form of a phone call or a store visit.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Related Reading:<\/strong> <a href=\"\/blog\/roi-analysis-digital-advertising-metrics\/\">ROI Analysis: Choosing Digital Advertising Metrics that Matter<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"best-platform\"><strong>The Best Place to Advertise<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through our team&#8217;s extensive work in the digital advertising space, we have come to the same conclusion as pretty much every digital advertising company. The best place to spend money on digital advertising:\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Google &amp; Facebook.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With digital advertising, not only is a local business visible online, but they are visible to the<em> right<\/em> people online. Platforms like Facebook and Google allow for advanced targeting, which puts a local business in front of consumers who are more likely to convert into a sale. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plus, Google and Facebook are set to rake in<\/span><a href=\"\/blog\/digital-advertising-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> 63.1% of all digital ad spend in 2017<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Content:<\/strong> <a href=\"\/content-library\/guides\/white-label-mastering-google-facebook-advertising-for-local-businesses-lp\/\">White Label Guide to Mastering Google and Facebook Advertising for Local Businesses<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Google\"><strong>Why Google?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Reach<\/strong><b>:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Google is the largest search network in the world, and consumers are using Google every single day to search for local businesses. Utilizing Google\u2019s massive network capabilities, digital advertisers are able to find ideal prospects and get in front of users looking for their products\/services. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the age of digital, people are not looking at TV commercials or listening to radio ads to find a local business; they are searching for a service and then locating your business online. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.internetlivestats.com\/google-search-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3.5 billion Google searches conducted every single day<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, customers are looking for local businesses, and businesses should want to be on Google. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Flexibility<\/strong><b>:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Google allows the local advertiser to spend whatever they want, whenever they want. With flexible options for ad spend, advertisers are able to test what works and what doesn\u2019t work for a business. Spend a bit, wait to see how the campaign performs, and then reinvest in larger budgets for greater prospect reach.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Faceook\"><strong>Why Facebook?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Audience<\/strong><b>: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The audience on Facebook includes 1.32 billion daily active users (DAUs) on average, at an increase of 17% year-over-year. As a local business, you simply cannot ignore the fact that Facebook is likely an intersection in which you can find prospective customers. If the daily average users stat doesn\u2019t have you convinced, then let\u2019s talk about how often social media is being used.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If there is one thing to take away, it is that the audience on Facebook is MASSIVE, and they are on Facebook a LOT. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Targeting<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Facebook Ad targeting is a marketer\u2019s dream. Facebook allows the ability to focus on users so microscopically that you can basically become a bit of a digital stalker (in a good way?). Target users by their interests, behaviours, age, gender, location, and really anything that their Facebook profile may reveal about them, including job title.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"advertising-examples\"><strong>5 Industry-Specific Digital Advertising Examples: Vendasta Case Studies<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vendasta\u2019s digital advertising team works with agencies across the globe to create thousands of digital advertising campaigns across the web for local businesses.

Ad views are doubling to a total of over 6,200 impressions, which also doubled the number of clicks to over 90. At a CTR of 1.48%, including 5 Adwords conversions, the company has seen 14 total phone calls. This particular company values each job at $200, and we see positive ROI in the campaign\u2019s infancy. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you can see, the local business has allocated nearly $475 for digital advertising spend (to date). For a business that used to rely heavily on traditional media, they are seeing the benefits of switching to digital. This local business is able to better analyze and track its advertising spend using digital ad platforms such as Facebook and Google as opposed to traditional media.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"retail\"><strong>Digital Advertising Example: Retail Industry<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gals N\u2019 Gowns* is a bridal boutique in the US that boasts a vast selection of bridesmaids&#8217; dresses. This particular location is part of a larger bridal franchise, yet under local ownership, faces many of the same struggles as other small local businesses. Gals N\u2019 Gowns* makes customer service and satisfaction a core focus, and the reviews reflect these values. In order to amplify their positive brand image online and attract more eager brides, Gals N\u2019 Gowns hired our services to run a multi-channel digital advertising campaign.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Objective:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Increase social media traffic, website traffic, and encourage customers to book appointments with Gals N\u2019 Gowns*.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Target Audience:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Women &#8211; Audience aimed to find women who are either brides-to-be or bridesmaids in the process of wedding planning.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Measures of Success:<\/strong><b><b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Increased sales through a digital ad spend.

Display advertising also saw a positive return, with 30% of its ads performing at more than twice the retail industry average. Overall, this local business saw a <\/span><strong>predicted campaign revenue of over $14,000 in just 30 days! <\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"automotive\"><strong>Digital Advertising Example: Automotive Industry<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our first case focuses on a car dealership located in Mississippi. The dealership offers both new and used vehicles and competes in an industry with many local competitors. No matter how good the dealership was in terms of customer service, it still lacked an online presence. The dealership looked for new ways to acquire customers and eventually turned to digital advertising solutions to drive more customer visits and phone calls. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Objective<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>:<\/strong> To increase customer visits and phone calls to the dealership. By utilizing both Google Advertising.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Target Audience<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>:<\/strong> Male and Female audience, aged 21 and up. Interested in targeting competitor locations as well as people in Mississippi and the surrounding areas. Essentially, targeting people who drive vehicles is a very broad audience.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Measures of Success:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Clicks on the company website and visits to the physical location.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a budget set in place, Vendasta worked with the dealership to gather information, including past customer buying habits, demographics, and known consumer behavior. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the first month of the campaign, Vendasta saw positive results, including a list of trending keywords that consumers looked for when searching for automotive dealers. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The campaign results above are from Google AdWords reporting for this client. As you can see, Google AdWords advertising brought in a ton of impressions and an extremely positive CTR for this dealer. With a CTR of 5.61%, this dealership was well above what <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wordstream.com\/adwords-click-through-rate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google considers a healthy ad performance of 2%.<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> For this particular dealer, the most successful keyword combination was \u201cToyota Pre Owned Vehicles,\u201d bringing in a <\/span><strong>staggering 14.38% CTR. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For many dealers, no matter the type of vehicles they sell, pre-owned seems to be a trending search. If an automotive dealer sells Ford vehicles primarily, they should be bidding on AdWords \u201cFord Pre-Owned Vehicles.\u201d We see high competition among automotive dealers, so being able to have digital advertisements that perform at a higher rate than the competition is extremely critical.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"transportation\"><strong>Digital Advertising Example: Transportation Industry<\/strong><b><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next, we introduce a local moving company from Connecticut. This company is focused on both local moves and long-distance relocation. Their passion for community involvement and friendly customer service has long been a pillar of success. With the decreased use of traditional media, the company was looking for a forward-thinking approach to marketing. This is where Vendasta intervened and helped this company kickstart its digital advertising. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Objective:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Drive customer phone calls and website visits.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Target Audience<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>:<\/strong> Residents of Connecticut <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Measures of Success:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> # of qualified sales leads calling or visiting the business who look to book a moving date.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Between a mixture of display advertising, search advertising, and Facebook advertising, our team was able to deliver results FAST! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the first month of the campaign, our digital advertising team was already seeing a positive return. The ad views went from 40,000 to over 90,000, generating over <strong>420 ad clicks.<\/strong> This traffic and exposure ultimately led to over 80 engaged prospective clients, amounting to 23 total phone calls to the business (in just a month!).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you can see, the local business has allocated $1,300 for digital advertising spend (to date), and the results shown are from both Facebook and Google. Typically, with success like this (<strong>625% ROI<\/strong>) we encourage the local business to spend more on digital advertising as they will see paralleling profits. ROI is different for every business, in this case, a move\/relocation is considered to be $500 in value to the client, therefore, the ROI calculation is on the basis of this metric.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"restaurant\"><strong>Digital Advertising Example: Restaurant Industry<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This example features a little Mexican restaurant in the heart of Texas, complete with delicious food and an authentic atmosphere.

Make sure that you understand the fundamentals, the appropriate platforms, and how to advertise effectively through various means of digital advertising. Before I let you give a digital advertising platform an unlimited spend and run your client&#8217;s advertising budget dry, try reading the following suggestions. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Or better yet, <a href=\"\/request-demo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">contact Vendasta<\/a> and set up digital advertising services so that our experts can handle digital advertising for you while you watch us deliver results! \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Digital Advertising Tip 1) Nail your ad extensions<\/strong><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shoppers are turning to search engines to find the items they want to buy, and they\u2019re looking for your business\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">clients&#8217; store details. 66% of online shoppers want to find the location of the nearest store with a wanted item, and 63% want even more details about the store, like hours and phone number. Thankfully, your search network ads for retail clients can have handy extensions like Call Extensions and Location Extensions to provide the consumer with just what they need. Making engagements and generating new business has never been so easy!<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b><br \/>\n<\/b><strong>Digital Advertising Tip 2) Pick the right keywords<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More than simply picking keywords with a high volume, you\u2019ll want to pick keywords that are relevant to both you<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">r business client\u2019s services and the promotion their campaign is based on. That way, the ads are displaying for highly relevant searches and are more likely to gain clicks and conversions. Picking keywords that are relevant to the business, yet not to the specific campaign, will simply waste your advertising budget, as the consumers are looking for more specific results.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b><br \/>\n<\/b><strong>Digital Advertising Tip 3) Don\u2019t skimp on the photography<\/strong><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to advertising campaigns for retail businesses, imagery is everything. Consumers will want to know <\/span>what the clothes look like before coming in to visit the store location, so make gorgeous photography a priority when establishing a\u00a0campaign. Make use of the display network\u2019s image capabilities to gain the best conversion results from your images and copy.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"conclusion\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Digital advertising is a must-have for local businesses, and you should be the company that provides them with that service.
