Activation & Closing Statements

 

Activating Members

While it’s been a great deal of the journey to simply bring visitors to a site, visitors alone are actually more of a problem than a solution. Rather than merely have visitors circling the surface, it’s time to activate members.

Visitors who only visit will unfortunately leave at outstanding rates. Therefore, activation is the ultimate goal. Activation occurs when visitors do something that you have decided for them to do. 

While these methods can range from an array of areas, the main idea is to get these visitors interested in more than just the surface of the website. Usually, the main idea is to get a visitor to enter an email address or make a purchase but there are other techniques as well.

In addition to the two techniques listed above, consider asking visitors to read a blog, make a comment, fill out a questionnaire, watch a video, interact with another member, or request some sort of friendship or membership.

While these seem simple, much of growth marketing only requires small results. Remember, a great deal of small results equivocates to large results. The key is to be consistent and continue to work towards greater and greater goals.

 

 

Summary

Internet marketing and programming are no longer separate entities. The methods and procedures used for each are both coming together in the form of growth hacking.

Businesses, both small and large, are steadily seeking growth hackers to help grow their businesses to exponential, seemingly overnight, levels of mammoth success. 

Internet marketers began as IT professionals and business students but are moving to the underground, in the form of all sorts of hacking techniques. 

Thanks to increased technology, growth hacking can occur at the fingertips of any individual, through a keyboard and into the ever-expanding Internet that spreads worldwide.

Individuals are invited to build portfolios from their college years, through internships and freelancing or on their own as Internet-savvy fan boys. Portfolios can range from all sorts and levels, but must be kept up-to-date in order to highlight a designer’s best work.

Portfolios can exists in many freelancing fields, but it’s important to always use proper grammar and spelling techniques. In addition, it’s wise to occasionally go back and revise old work, using new techniques that you have picked up along the way.

Perhaps the most important aspect of any portfolio is the open-ended ambition that a well-kept portfolio invites. Future employers want to know where you want to go with your work and encourage foundation with a view.

Amidst the portfolio, a specific niche often helps individuals as well as businesses. By defining a particular niche as described within the long-tail of keywords, even the smallest companies to strike high search results among the largest search engines.

Specifying an area of study greatly improves the success of a business by helping the business itself focus while keeping a simple strategy in mind among present and future customers.

There are countless examples that currently exist and even more on the horizon. When looking for a niche, consider examining fields of interest that currently catch your attention. Consider ordering niche magazines or conducting in-depth research to find out more information. 

When choosing a niche, business-minded individuals will quickly come up with grand ideas to improve categories within the field. Others will simply want to blog about the subject in order to highlight their knowledge to the world, creating a community of additional, like-minded folks.

Once a product has been created, there are four methods to begin a business that never go out of style. First, always focus on relationships. This benefits everyone, from brick and mortar pizza shops to online teapot sales in Taiwan—customers appreciate developed relationships.

Direct response copywriting is another important aspect and a subject that should not be left to subtlety. In our milli-second world, it’s important to have engaging, tagline-like headlines to hook visitors.

Content marketing is the third method of success and asks for users to deliver scheduled content to their readership in a way that readers expect and crave emails and additional information. 

Finally, make sure to have valuable products. In this scenario, valuable is not relevant to monetary, but valuable in terms of worth. Do not waste your time or your customer’s time writing, blogging, or advertising about an inferior product. 

Growth hackers understand the “going viral” is no accident. Any video or product that reaches millions has more than just overnight success. Virality only occurs from a great product and lots of belief.

After finding the ideal product, growth hackers can then define actionable goals to follow through with. These goals will be guided through analytics, making sure to leverage the strength of any given company for ultimate success.

While any hypothesis could be wrong, a hypothesis with a narrow focus and backed results has a better chance of equaling success. Through these marketing experiments, growth hackers can prove results and repeat as necessary to find the best results for amazing results.

In addition, to track growth, it’s important to understand the mindset of the consumer. Through a funnel, growth hackers understand how to funnel occasional visitors to the site in order to find those willing to sign up for an email account or even purchase goods on a recurring basis. 

Gaining visitors is vital for growth hacking. Through various techniques of marketing, growth hackers can pull and push users directly to a site. Pull methods use incentivized techniques while push methods chase potential customers through advertisements. 

Another technique, and possibly the most successful, is the product technique. This involves methods like Facebook and Twitter, where users must be logged in to use a particular service. 

Finally, remember that visitors on a site are not enough and it’s as important to bring visitors, as it is to funnel those visitors through the site. Simply ask your visitors to read a blog, click on a link, watch a video, or sign up for an account and you will be on your way to becoming a successful growth hacker.
