Recipe Card

A fortress protects you and makes you feel safe. A strongly held belief is a fortress. It protects your view of reality. You

defend your fortress when you feel it’s under attack. But is every strongly held belief true? The sincerity of the believer does not determine the truth of the belief. Don’t panic, I’m not attacking your fortresses. I have no idea what you believe but I do know you have 4 categories of beliefs:1. Beliefs about GodIs he there or not? Does he care or not? Has he spoken to us or not? Is the future written or do you have free will? You have a belief. 2. Beliefs about SelfAre you essentially good or basically bad? Are you broken or whole? Do you matter? You have a belief.3. Beliefs about OthersDo others give to you or take from you? Can they be trusted? What do you mean to them? You have a belief.

A Fortress of Beliefs

4. Beliefs about CircumstancesDo you shape your circumstances or do they shape you? Will they get better or grow worse? What do you really deserve? You have a belief.

Is there a chance that one of your beliefs is wrong and your fortress has become a prison?

I’m not a motivational speaker. I’m a business consultant. Stay with me.

Frances Frei of Harvard Business School says you cannot change a person’s behavior until you change their beliefs. I agree with her.

Feelings are the products of actions. Actions are the products of beliefs.

I teach how to change the behavior of customers by changing what customers believe. But in each instance, the first change of belief must happen in the heart of the business

owner.

Are you up for it?

Why the Shift?

Search Engine Marketing – The practice of employing search engines to help increase website traffic and sell products and services

Organic Search – results based on relevance to a search term or keyword

Paid Search – Ad listing served by keyword relevance

Search Marketing

Community based websites where:

Users post biographical profiles, photos, video, artwork, games and much more

Blog in personal journalsIM and e-mailInvite friends to link to their pagesAdvertise in classifieds and more

Social Networks

Social Networks

80% of affluent consumers use social media ($100,000 income plus average age 45.9 years)

Shop –on line 4 or more hours per week

For the new demographic of younger people – If it’s not on the Internet - It doesn’t exist

Let’s talk about evolution

Search Engine MarketingSearch Engine Optimization

Pay Per Click

Throughout marketing history media has always evolved

The evolution of media…

• SIGNS• NEWSPAPERS• RADIO• NETWORK TV• CABLE TV• SATELLITE TV/RADIO• COMPUTERS/ONLINE• MOBILE

During evolution some things become extinct

…while other things become endangered species that must adapt to survive

ME!

YOU?

The point is…

• The emergence of a new medium is nothing new to any of us

• We know from experience that Ms. Jones preferences/media use will change

• Change creates opportunity for those that embrace it…and leaves behind those who don’t

• BUT…change happens so fast now that it can cause discomfort

The “marketing DNA” we all know does not change online

• Define your target• Establish a relevant position for your products

and services• Reach as many qualified prospects as many

times as possible• Create a compelling reason to respond• Provide unparalleled service• Create a “seamless” experience from the first

point of contact to after the sale

R&A Fundamental Belief

• A website is not just an online portal. It is an open invitation to Ms. Jones that should reflect the same values and ideals that a “brick and mortar” store possesses. Ultimately we are violating our “what you say VS what you do” mentality if the website does not live up to the store or vice versa.

R&A online strategy

• True integration with offline media• Focus first on search strategies…online

advertising can grow as we learn more about Ms. Jones’ online habits

What SEM is NOT

• SEM is not free• SEM is not easy• SEM is not static• SEM is not a replacement for a good web site

SEMSearch Engine Marketing

SEOSearch Engine Optimization

PPCPay Per Click

Relational, organic search Transactional, paid search

What is search?

Paid search

Organic search

SEO: why it’s important to your marketing plan

• Internet use is the only medium growing since ‘04• 74% on the American population is now online and it

grows daily• 80%+ of internet users search sites thru either paid

or organic search (250M searches per day)• Organic searches are more trusted, 61% of searches

click on organic listings• Searchers are 6x more likely to click on the first 3

organic listings VS paid

Search engine optimizationTitles

URL

Description

What to look for in your SEO plan• Keyword use is maximized

– The right words properly placed– Title tag and page headers most important

• All links are fully functional– Frequent but not excessive

• Ideal page “weight”– File size not excessive– Spiders search text, not images

• Proper page indexing– Criteria differs by search engine

What to look for continued….

• Ensure old pages are removed and new ones recognized– Site:yourwebsite.com to check– Fresh content increases searchability

• Effective URL strategy– Keyword, brand, geographic location, etc.

• Proper use of Meta Tags– Header tags, title tags, content tags, image tags

• Backlinks are optimized– Links increase searchability

PPC: why it’s ALSO important to your marketing plan

• Majority of search funds spent today goes to PPC: $8.9B in ‘09

• More immediacy than SEO• Can support timed promotions• Placement is more reliable• Easy/quick to adjust

What to look for in your PPC programs

• Keywords selected to maximize search– Adwords use most common search terms– Use more specific terms

• “Adwords” contain strong offer– Limited space to “hook” the searcher

• Use landing pages, don’t go directly to home page– Clearly reflects Adwords offer/message– Focus on what action you want taken

• Structured to achieve high page quality score– Adwords system looks at factors to determine relevance

• Gets high benchmark scores– Click thru, conversion

Big Furniture Discounts3-way savings ends soonShop now for best selection, savings

AD WORDS LANDING PAGE

Why use both SEO and PPC

• Pre-empts competition from both spots• Multiple listings increases click thru• Covers both long term (relational) and short

term (transactional) needs• Increases pure brand/name exposure

Parting comments

• You will never get started with search engine marketing unless you budget for it

• You will not maximize the benefits of search engine marketing if your web site is not properly designed to turn traffic into sales
