A Strategic Marketing Plan is an annual marketing plan to help you achieve your business goals. In the process of developing your annual Strategic Marketing Plan, we create marketing goals to help you achieve your business goals. During this process we identify your target audience, to ensure that we are able to reach the correct people, on the channels and platforms they prefer, using language that resonates with them. We connect all of your marketing platforms through this process – your ​Website, Social Media, Public Relations, Digital Advertising, Print Advertising, and more. This creates a cohesive brand, which assists with achieving your business goals. This annual Strategic Marketing Plan includes estimated advertising costs based on current fees for various advertising outlets. It also includes all campaigns whether annual or seasonal, events, sponsorships, and much more. All of this ensures that you get the best return on your investment!

Whatever the size of your business, it is essential that you have a marketing strategy in place to make sure your marketing efforts are aligned with your goals and objectives. Having a plan means you have clear steps to meet your objectives, whether short term, mid-term, or long term.

It gives you a clear plan to stick to and something to measure against your results. If you have a plan to meet a specific goal and did not, then the activity would need to be analyzed to ensure it was the right one for that objective. Without a plan, you cannot know what to do, when to do it, or how to define or measure success.

A buyer persona is a fictional consumer representing a brand’s target audience. The persona possesses all the company’s ideal customer characteristics, including demographic, interests, and behaviour. A buyer persona helps brands better understand their customer’s needs, experiences, challenges, and goals to better market and serve them.

Inbound marketing attracts customers by providing relevant and valuable content through SEO, social media, blogs, videos, and emails. Inbound marketing attempts to build lasting relationships with consumers by offering products and services that will solve the user’s current problems. Rather than sending out messages to the general public, inbound marketing focuses on targeting users that are likely to be interested in your products and services.

Content marketing involves creating and publishing online marketing materials to boost brand awareness and sales. While the online material does not always directly relate to specific products and services, the content should educate potential customers about product needs.

Content marketing and content writing are two different marketing strategies but are commonly used in tandem. Content marketing refers to the overall approach, while content writing refers specifically to the textual copy used within content marketing.

Before we begin developing content for your business, we will determine your business goals then align marketing goals to achieve those business goals. We will also identify your target audience to ensure that we can reach the correct people on the channels and platforms they prefer, using language that resonates with them. Once we have all of this, we develop content using the voice of your business – staying true to who you are – while speaking to your target audience. The strategy we create for you will specify the content approach we will use for your business. Once approved, we will start developing a content calendar. Before any work is published, you will have an opportunity to review and approve all media created for your brand by NAYA.

A content calendar has all of the content you’re planning to publish over a specific period. We create a month-long content calendar at NAYA that includes blog topics, social media posts, and media. Having a calendar can help your business to plan and strategize well.

In content marketing, there are four primary purposes of content: entertain, educate, inspire, and convince. These purposes allow brands to craft content for each step in the marketing funnel effectively. Beginning with entertaining and ending with convincing, these purposes follow consumers on their journey from brand awareness to purchase.

Social media platforms allow users to connect and engage with one another through shared content. Social media websites were initially developed for social networking, but social media has become a popular marketing approach. Businesses often use social media to showcase products and services, connect with current or potential customers, and boost brand awareness.

A professional social media marketing agency will devise a cohesive strategy and effectively manage and coordinate your social media channels. This strategy is achieved by immersing itself in your brand and building your social media channels to drive an engaged and influential community on your behalf.

While social media presence is crucial for all companies, each company will have different social media needs and strategies. For some, Facebook will be the best platform for business, while Instagram may be better for others. To determine which platforms are best for your business, knowing your target audience and social media goals is essential.

The primary purposes of social media marketing are the brand awareness and consideration stages of the sales funnel. Social media platforms allow businesses to connect with their target audience and slowly but surely nudge them down the funnel with content and links to learn more. Companies can nurture leads into buyers by providing relevant information about products and services, engaging with their audience, and providing free trials or specials.

Absolutely. Share to any of your appropriate platforms for the type of content you are sharing so people can comment on it and pass it on to others who may find it interesting! If you want people to see your content and you want Google to be more likely to index it, it needs to show up on social media.

NAYA primarily works with Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter.
