Cost Savings between Traditional Marketing and Internet Marketing
Copyright 2003, Scott F. Geld
Marketing can be defined as 'whatever you do to promote and
grow your business' including market research, advertising,
publicity, sales, merchandising and distribution. With
traditional marketing techniques all of these things are
delivered in print format or in person. Internet marketing
however, uses the power of online networks and interactive
media to reach your marketing objectives...no paper, no
telephone calls, no in person appearances.
How can Internet marketing save you time, money and resources?
Read on...
Electronic versions of catalogs, brochures, white papers, data
sheets etc. don't have to be printed, stored or shipped to your
customers resulting in an enormous savings in printing and
storage costs. And what about manpower (or lady power) costs?
You no longer require as many people to handle mailing and
distribution of your marketing collateral...more savings.
Updating catalogs, brochures and any other marketing collateral
you produce can be accomplished as needed online and in
lightning speed. There's no need to send revised material out
to a printer and then have to wait for a revised version, a
great savings in time. And, time is money.
You can provide more information to your customers with little
if any additional cost. Adding more pages to a document online
involves virtually no expense compared to the additional cost
and space required to deliver the same thing in print format.
You can reach more customers than ever before and it doesn't
cost a penny more. There's no postage or courier charges to
pay. Distribution costs are the same whether you reach one
or one million.
Finally, for little or no cost you can have several electronic
versions of the same catalog customized to meet the needs of
different audiences.
The difference between traditional and Internet marketing is
money and Internet marketing improves your bottom line. That's
what it's all about isn't it?
