What Is Marketing?
Starting with the basics, marketing is a way of promoting your brand in a subtle and non-intrusive way. This can be carried out digitally or through more traditional methods such as posters and leaflets. Typically, the aim of this technique is to build up the relationship between a business and its consumers, creating brand loyalty.
Many people get marketing and advertising confused and often think these are the same thing. In actual fact, these two techniques are polar opposites when it comes to their approach. When someone is being marketed to, they typically don’t know about it. On the other hand, people usually do know when they are being sold to via advertisement.
Why Is Marketing Important?
Marketing is important for many different reasons and really, now couldn’t be a better time to be pulling your strategy in line.

Key Characteristics of a B2C Audience
The philosophy is simple – in order to sell more of something, you need to know why people buy in the first instance. Before going any further with building or implementing a marketing strategy, it’s important you truly understand the needs, wants and desires of your consumers. Additionally, you also need to understand their characteristics. As B2C marketing specialists, allow us to give you a crash course on consumer behaviour. You may want to pay extra close attention here. One of the most important things for us to mention is that B2C consumers are typically driven by short term desire.
They see it, they want it, they purchase it. It’s as simple as that. Comparatively, B2B customers spend far more time considering their options. Impulse buying means that the time between seeing something and purchasing it is very short. Something to bear in mind when looking at your marketing. Furthermore, B2C behaviour is also typically influenced by peers. For example, if someone you trust recommends a product to you, you’re more likely to buy it and vice versa. Additionally, emotions also play a huge factor here. If you are promising to plant one tree for every sale, for instance, a consumer may be more likely to buy from you. B2B audiences, on the other hand, won’t usually take these kinds of persuasive techniques into account.
Building Your Strategy
Your marketing strategy is an incredibly vital clog in the entire process, so it’s vital you spend time getting it right. Think of this as your plan of action that helps your team stay on the correct page. Whilst creating this, it’s important you consider your brand, budget, and customer alignment.
