- [The 6 Factor Checklist to Picking The Best Digital Marketing Agency](https://www.heroesofdigital.com/digital-marketing/the-6-factor-checklist-to-picking-the-best-digital-marketing-agency/): Let’s face it – there are tons of digital marketing agencies in Singapore, probably more than we ever need.
You might have been on the other end of cold calls and emails that blatantly pitch generic and no-value marketing services that makes you want to hang up without a second thought.
But when you are seriously considering outsourcing your digital marketing to take your company to the next level, how do you pick the best digital marketing agency in Singapore to work with?
We have realised that good digital marketing agencies share 6 common factors.
Simply run through this 6-factor checklist to pick the best digital marketing agency for your company:
1. Focus on Returns
At the end of the day, a digital marketing agency’s role is to help you grow your business. There is no way around this fact. Creative artwork, cool graphics, nice user-interface, funny posts and etc are good, but they shouldn’t be the focus of an agency.
You don’t hire a marketing agency to help you spend your spare cash. You hire a marketing agency to help you make more money.
Therefore, a good digital marketing agency should always put your business objectives and return on investments as the sole priority. This means doing possible sales projections, understanding your margins, and gearing their strategies towards helping you make more money.
Unfortunately, very few digital agencies in Singapore do this. And that’s what makes Heroes of digital different – our entire company is founded upon the premise of generating a positive ROI for our clients.
2. Accessibility
We understand the frustration of not having direct access to the people who manage your campaigns whenever you need them.
Good agencies would understand the desire of clients to have easy access to the person in charge, especially during emergencies. Within reasonable boundaries, account managers would meet urgent matters and resolve the issue as soon as it arises, regardless of the day of the week.
3. Accountability
You need to be able to trust that your agency to deliver the website traffic, increased brand awareness, and leads, with your business objectives and goals in mind.
At Heroes of Digital, we place high importance in meeting our client’s goals within the budget and deadline decided at the start of the relationship. We constantly keep our clients updated on the progress and campaign results because we are not only delivering digital services, but also interested in your business growth.
4. Advice and Leadership
You would expect your agency to lead and give advice as a trusted expert.
You need an agency that proactively brings you ideas, actively listen to your thoughts and feedback, and ask you insightful questions. “Order-takers” and “yes men” are not enough. If an agency is just executing your ideas, it defeats the purpose of outsourcing. A full-time in-house marketing executive would be more appropriate in this case.
At Heroes of Digital, we provide strategic advice on Marketing. We pride ourselves on being leaders and giving sound advice and solutions to our clients of varying industries and project scale. We never take things at face value and are not afraid to voice out when we feel there is a better way.
5. Cost Effectiveness
The best digital marketing agencies usually charge a premium because of the high quality of work done for promised results. Like all things in life, “you get what you paid for”.
But the cost shouldn’t be considered as a lumpsum. The best angle in determining whether an agency package is ‘value for money’ is the cost-effectiveness. For every dollar spent, what do you get in return?
A good digital marketing agency should advise and help you spend every dollar wisely. It’s about having the right vision so that all of the money and efforts are investing in the right areas.
6. Business Acumen
In today’s world, marketing touches every aspect of a business. You should expect your digital marketing agency to understand your business as much as possible. You need someone at the table who can recognise and solve business problems.
Having business acumen and understanding is a big part of what makes Heroes of Digital different. We aim to thoroughly understand our client’s business and tailor solutions to achieve their business objectives.
If you are looking to hire a digital marketing agency to help your company grow, you will never go wrong by running them through this 6-factor checklist.

- [The One Key Factor That Determines The Success of Your Digital Marketing Campaign](https://www.heroesofdigital.com/digital-marketing/the-one-key-factor-that-determines-the-success-of-your-digital-marketing-campaign/): “Anyone can run Google ad, just search how to do it on YouTube”
“Anyone can run a Facebook ad, you can look it up on YouTube. In fact, Facebook offers free videos on how to set up your own Facebook marketing campaign.”
The point is, anyone can run their own digital marketing campaign if they put the time and effort into learning how to do it.
So why do so many digital marketing campaigns fail if it’s so simple to set up?
The reason why so many digital marketing campaigns fail is precisely because many agencies simply help to create the campaign on Google or Facebook ad, but do not follow through with providing you essential information on the progress.
At the end of the month, poor digital marketing agencies only report number of impressions and clicks for the keywords in your campaign.
This is an extremely limiting view of digital marketing.
But for campaigns that are wildly successful, there is a key difference.
Assuming factors like brand recognition and industry are held equal, the one key factor that determines success and failure is…
Strategy.
What is ‘Strategy’ in Digital Marketing?
Strategy is defined as a plan of action designed to achieve a long-term or overall goal.
Creating and uploading a Google ad is not a strategy. It’s just manual labour. You can learn how to setup adwords campaign yourself.
Strategy in digital marketing or lead generation mostly, consists of 3 key parts: Brand positioning – How will you stand out from your competitors? What messaging will you use? Lead magnet – A lead magnet is basically what you will offer to in exchange for a new lead’s name, email address, and even mobile phone number. This is one of the most effective ways to lower your cost-per-lead. Common forms of lead magnets are first time trials or discounts, free previews, free consultation, and etc. The decision to pick the right lead magnet is key in attracting qualified leads. You don’t want freebie seekers. Lead conversion sales process – When you generate new leads, do you have a proper system to effectively convert these leads into actual sales? How are you going to maximise profits for customers that buys your products/services? These 3 things when done right, will make your campaign successful and give you the positive return on investment (ROI) you are looking for.
Without these 3 things, your campaign will likely underperform to its full potential.
Sadly, many digital marketing agencies’ view of a digital marketing campaign is to simply send traffic to a generic home page or product page.
At Heroes of Digital, we pride ourselves on providing superior digital marketing strategy so that your campaign has a much higher chance of being successful.
If you’re looking to take your digital marketing campaign to the next level, and achieve various success similar to that of our clients’, simply call +65 6802 3658 to speak to one of the consultants from our digital marketing company in Singapore today.

- [What The Gym Can Teach You About Growing Your Business 2X Faster](https://www.heroesofdigital.com/business-growth/what-the-gym-can-teach-you-about-growing-your-business-2x-faster/): I go to the gym quite often, about 3 times per week, for about 2 years now.
There’s a guy named John that I have seen at the gym for all this time. He goes just as often as I do.
He’s a relatively skinny guy, trying to build on some muscle. But for 2 years, his body has mostly remained the same. I still remember him always sharing with me about this new strength training method he learnt from Youtube, and this new diet program he’s trying out.
It changes every two months. On top of that, his lifting form is bad and overall he’s just not doing the right things to build muscle.
For me, I’ve gained 7kg in muscle and lost at least 3kg of fat in about 8 months. I maintain where I’m at now.
So what made the difference? How did two people who go to the gym just as often, have drastically different results?
Well, John was working hard, but he was working hard on doing the wrong things and not sticking to something long enough to see it pay off. His weight lifting form was wrong, he wasn’t lifting heavy enough, and he wasn’t eating the right foods.
I work hard on the right things, made sure I lift the correct weights, correct form, and correct sets. In other words, I followed a proven strength-training framework that allows me to improve month after month. Every week, I know exactly what I’m supposed to do to achieve my goals.
I have a blueprint.
And it’s the same with growing your business.
Too often SMEs jump from tactic to tactic without having a proper strategy or framework that can lead to consistent growth.
One day you try some Facebook tip, another day you try Google ads marketing, etc. We call this spray and pray marketing. You try something for a while and hope that it works. If it doesn’t work after spending $500, then you stop.
This is a sure-fire recipe for failure.
Also consider this: If you do Facebook marketing or Google ads, so can your competitors. These are open platforms any business can use.
Doing these things won’t help you grow your business to the level you want it to be.
It is the strategy behind using these platforms and sticking to it long enough that will make the whole difference.
What you need is a proven marketing framework that can consistently and repeatedly generate long term sales growth.
When you have this, you control your destiny by knowing exactly how much your revenue can grow based on your resources. You will also have a clear blueprint on how to get there.
If you want the proven framework for growing your business faster for the long term, then find out about the proven strategies at our digital marketing company in Singapore.
- [6 Most Common Facebook Marketing Mistakes That You Must Avoid at All Cost](https://www.heroesofdigital.com/social-media/6-most-common-facebook-marketing-mistakes-that-you-must-avoid-at-all-cost/): Starting a Facebook business page and getting high quality followers can be challenging, what more turning these followers into customers. Sadly, many small businesses in Singapore are making mistakes on Facebook marketing that are turning people away from their brand.
These common Facebook marketing mistakes must be avoided at all cost if your business intends on getting more fans and customers from Facebook.
#1 Too much promotional content
I’ve seen many Facebook pages of companies in Singapore making this mistake. Small business owners think that Facebook is some sort of a Straits Times Classified section where they just spam all their promotional banners and offers.
Put yourself in your audience’s shoes. We live in a world of excessive advertising – there are adverts everywhere we look. There is enough advertising in the traditional space that overwhelms us, but talk of the online environment? Dealing with online adverts is one of the daily annoyances that customers have become accustomed to and as a result people tend to switch their minds off when presented with an advert. It’s a turnoff.
Facebook audience will not come back to these kind of pages. But how much is too much and just how often should you be posting purely promotional content? There’s no short answer to this. The idea is you have to educate, entertain, and engage an emotional response from your customers. The Triple E method as we call it. When you implement the Triple E method, you’ll find that you’ll stand out from the social media clutter of noise.
I’ll give you some examples.
Educate Blinds vs curtains. Which is better? Your customers would love to find out. This post is for a furniture business that sells blinds, wallpapers, and flooring. When you educate your customers, you’re positioning yourself as an expert. People buy from experts. Experts can sell their products at higher prices.
Entertain Entertain your audience with interesting posts that are related to your business. This post is for a business that does baking classes. Good visuals definitely helps, just look at the number of shares and likes 😉
Engage people emotionally A high quality image and a description like this triggers an emotional response in your Facebook audience. This is for a furniture company that predominantly sells Italian-made sofas. You don’t have to post heavy content on your Facebook everytime. Content like this triggers an emotional response in your customers.
They view your products differently, and would certainly cement yourself in their minds as a company that sells high quality sofas. Don’t forget that Facebook is a social platform, where people share things they find funny, interesting, and informative. Social media users logon to the various platforms to discover new stuff.
So think about the kind of content that your customers would like.
#2 Lack of content marketing strategy
One main reason why companies are just posting promotional content on their Facebook page is because of a lack of knowledge on what to post. They usually post random content that has no clear direction.
What can a TGIF post, or a Happy New Year post do to your business?
Nothing.
Your Facebook activity is all over the place and you’re probably just trying to ensure that you have some kind of activity. After all, something is better than nothing right? Well, if you want to see profitable results from your Facebook efforts then this statement is wrong. What better way to chase customers away than to offer them boring and irrelevant content? There is enough boring in the world and people don’t need any more from your brand.
Put yourself in your customers’ shoes and understand what kind of content they need. Give your audience what they want and need. If you remain mediocre and boring, your customers will not find you relevant in their lives and will not engage with your brand. Posting boring and irrelevant content on your Facebook page is a way of de-marketing your brand – you’re encouraging your audience not to engage with you. Be exciting and always aim to offer value to your audience.
Results on Facebook don’t just happen by accident, every single activity is planned and deliberate – even the unplanned content, that should have a plan too. In the social media space, content is everything. According to Content Marketing Institute, 70% of surveyed marketers say they are creating more content than they did a year ago.
That means for your company to stand out, you need to have a content marketing strategy. An effective content marketing plan consists of asking yourself the following: Who is your target market? Demographics, habits, interests, etc What are their problems/wants/needs? What are the popular content that your competitors have? What unique value does your business add to your target market? What are your solutions to your target market’s problems? Understanding your target audience thoroughly will assist you creating and delivering content that is relevant to their needs. Also, knowing your brand story will help you create an appropriate personality that will give character to your messaging.
Other than asking yourself these questions, you could find more content ideas through Facebook (use the search tool), Pinterest, Google images, Buzzsumo and Twitter. See what’s working out there, what kind of posts have the most engagements. Aim to post around twice a week. That’s the ideal frequency for typical small businesses.
Too much content would annoy your fans. Too little, would make customers think that your Facebook page is outdated, and hence, think that you might have gone out of business.
#3 Not responding quickly
When customers go on to a business’ Facebook page to communicate with you, they expect an immediate response from the company. We live in a world where we expect instant response.
Customers may feel the need to contact your business through Facebook for any enquiries. Facebook is a tool that can be used for multiple uses, one of them as a customer service platform. Many clients of ours receive 20-40 messages on their Facebook in one weekend. People are using Facebook to contact you.
Not responding fast enough to users’ messages can give a negative impression and most importantly it can negatively affect your sales. Facebook has realized how important it is that businesses with Facebook pages respond to user posts and messages that they have created a tab on every page that shows the response time. Imagine coming to a Facebook page and seeing that your respond time is fast. There would be a higher percentage of people enquiring about your products/services.
#4 No Facebook marketing sales funnel
Facebook has so many features that you can use to grow your business. But herein lies the problem. Many businesses do not know how to use those features in a proper, coherent manner that drives sales.
What works and what doesn’t? What’s the best way?
In offline sales, companies typically have a sales funnel. It can be something like: Have a roadshow, give people free gifts to entice them and get their contacts, follow up on these contacts, offer them a free consultation or free sample of your product, and ultimately sell them. So if there’s an offline sales funnel, there’s no reason why there shouldn’t be a sales funnel for online marketing.
Without a proper sales funnel, you’re wasting your time and money on Facebook marketing. Before I go into what an effective Facebook sales funnel looks like, I’ll talk about the state of mind when people use Facebook, and why marketing messages on Facebook needs to be different than messages on other marketing channels.
People go to Facebook to discover new things 95% of Facebook users aren’t in a purchase mood.
They don’t log on to Facebook with an intent. They log on to Facebook purely to discover new and interesting stuff, and connect with friends. People go to Google with an intent, to search for something, that’s the main difference between Google Ads and Facebook marketing. So if you’re selling something to people directly on Facebook, that might not be the most effective method.
You might find that many people engaged with your ads, have a volume of people clicking to your website, but conversion to sales is very low. That’s the problem.
When you sell something directly to people who are not in a purchasing mood, most of them simply ignore your ads. It’s a big jump to get Facebook users to buy your stuff immediately when they’re not in the mood. And when 95% of them exit from your ad, you simply wasted your Facebook ad budget.
It’s either a yes or no, and most of the time, it’s a no from your prospects. So what’s a better way to do Facebook marketing? You need to nurture your prospects, and get them to say an easy “yes”. To get them to say an easy “yes”, give them an offer that is attractive and easy to say yes to. It can be something like: 10% one-time discount coupon, a free gift if you purchase above $xxx, a free consultation etc.
Now that you’ve had a brief understanding of Facebook users, let’s go back to the sales funnel. Typically, the sales funnel that we use for our clients’ Facebook marketing looks something like that: Drive Facebook traffic to landing page Give an attractive offer to consumers in exchange for their email address Nurture these leads using email marketing Do remarketing to people who visited your landing page but didn’t become a lead Reason why we want to collect email addresses is because by doing so, you can reach out to these people who are interested in your services/products in two ways: emails and Facebook.
If you don’t collect their email addresses, there’s no way you can reach out to these people again who have shown a slight interest (when they click on your Facebook ad to your landing page) in your products/services.
Frequently communicating and educating with these leads will allow you to stay top of mind in your customers eyes. When these customers want to buy your products/services, you’ll most likely be the first one they think of and go to.
#5 Poor visuals
Our world is becoming more visual. 10% of photos taken by humans happened in the past year. The most popular social media platforms are image centric – Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, Pinterest.
Our attention is also becoming shorter. From blogging (where people had to write long blog articles), to Facebook, and then Twitter (where you can only communicate within 140 characters), to Instagram (one picture).
The best way to stand out and capture people’s short attention span in this day and age is through a picture. A picture is worth a thousand words. People are also more likely to buy and engage with your content if it has quality images.
Visuals can work both ways. Your visuals can speak either a thousand good or a thousand bad words depending on your presentation. How would you judge someone in an interview that came dressed dirty and scruffy?
Certainly not in their favor. Customers will judge your business based on the Facebook appearance displayed through the quality of your visuals. Poor quality and low resolution images should be avoided completely as it gives a negative impression to your customers. Many small business owners in Singapore think that they can save money on visuals by taking photos from their catalogue or suppliers, but that usually doesn’t cut it. Those photos are either low res, or dull.
It doesn’t stand out.
The most popular Facebook pages have stunning images. Our clients who took the effort to take high quality photos of their products are doing significantly better on Facebook marketing than businesses who don’t dare to fork out some money to hire a decent photographer to take photos.
#6 Expecting a miracle with little resources
Too many times, when I meet potential clients, they tell me that Facebook marketing doesn’t work for them. When I probe further and ask what have they tried on Facebook, they would say something like, “I’ve tried boosting a Facebook post with $50”, “I’ve tried posting some content on Facebook, but nobody likes it.
There’s no sales coming from my Facebook.” Really?
You expect a miracle from a $50 ad? You expect sales from random and useless Facebook posts? Getting sales from Facebook is not easy. If you’re planning to manage Facebook marketing by yourself, then you need to set aside time to do research on the kind of content that works. Look at my point above on how to plan for a content marketing strategy.
Good content involves understanding your target market, and expertise in your industry. It takes time and effort to develop good content that can generate sales.
With a $50 ad spend, do you think the conclusion that you draw is accurate? There are many factors that affect the effectiveness of Facebook ads. Your target audience, your ad creative, message, visuals, timing and etc. Don’t rule out Facebook advertising as a viable marketing channel. Test with a bigger budget, and test smartly.
Now that you are more informed about the common Facebook marketing mistakes that small businesses make, remember that your Facebook page is your 24/7 salesman. Invest in areas where you need to, be it design, or content. Focus on activities that will drive your brand towards positive engagements with your customers. Want to find out more?

- [The Most Cost Effective Strategy to Boost Sales for SMEs](https://www.heroesofdigital.com/social-media/the-most-cost-effective-strategy-to-boost-sales-for-smes/): An open letter to SME owners. Here is the most cost effective strategy to boost your sales this year.
Dear SME owners:
If this is something you can relate to:
“I’m not getting enough leads for my business. Operating costs are high, I can’t seem to grow my sales and I don’t have much control over it.”
Then I encourage you to read this article completely because it will matter a lot to you. The sentiments above is a problem many SMEs face today. Why is this so?
Here’s why:
As an SME owner, you have many competitors, be it bigger or smaller than yourself. So you try to beat your competitors everyday.
You can run a Google ads campaign, but the truth is: so can your competitors. 
You can create a Facebook page: so can your competitors.
You do newspaper ads or hand out flyers: so can your competitors.
However, by utilizing a captivating flyer template, you can elevate your promotional efforts and stand out from the crowd.
And the worst part? Some of your competitors can offer their products or services at a lower price or with a better offer.
So how can you compete?
This is a never-ending struggle for growth. The very simple reason why you are struggling to see the kind of sales growth you want to see, is in layman terms, due to lack of branding.
With proper branding, everything changes.
You see, the most successful local SMEs today all succeeded and flew ahead of their competitors because they have established a brand.
Think of companies like Yakun, BreadTalk, Osim, Tung Lok, Thai Express, Bakerzin, the list goes on. We all know these brands for something specific they do or stand for, and that is why they experience continued success till today no matter if new competitors enter the market.
1. “Woah branding… so expensive”
That is true. The usual branding activities offered by branding agencies cost 6 figures at least and most SMEs will not be able to afford them. But what if there was a solution to create branding more affordably? Like 5 times less the cost of a normal branding campaign?
As it turns out, there is. We call it strategic social media marketing.
I can understand that when you think about social media marketing, you think of things like posting random Facebook posts, and running a $50 Facebook ad now and then – things that even your mother can do for you.
2. STOP.
You are completely wrong. And if you continue to think that way, you will continue to experience slow sales growth.
Here is the truth about social media or Facebook you need to know: Facebook is the most cost-effective branding tool on the planet due to its ability to consistently communicate with customers You can post graphics and videos that build your brand (pictures and videos capture attention and tell stories) You can run ads to exactly the people you want to target at any given time and generate customers on demand if done right (I know because I have helped SMEs generate over $1000,000 in sales from Facebook) You can find out who your best customers (the ones who pay you the most are), and reach out to these people at a lower cost And you can do all of this without the budget of a big branding campaign. The important thing to keep in mind is that Facebook is a medium for communication with customers.
And constant communication will allow you to build a power brand if you know what you are doing. If you don’t believe me think about all the brands you know. Why do you know these brands?
Because you see and hear about them all the time! Usually for one specific thing they do or believe in. For SMEs, Facebook gives you this power – to appear in front of your customers all the time for a cheaper cost than ever before.
So how do you manage a Facebook page that builds your brand and generates sales automatically? You need to know how are you different from your competitors, and why customers should choose you You need to produce content frequently around your brand values and unique difference You need to spend some money promoting these content You need to spend some money running ads to sell your stuff Yes, you still need to spend money. Do not think otherwise. Facebook needs to make money. So in order to succeed in Facebook you need to spend money. There’s no escaping it.
But the amount you spend can be a fraction of what it would cost to do a branding campaign without being much less effective.
Here is a concrete example.
M3 Studio is an interior design firm with 47,000 fans on Facebook. They get almost all their clients from Facebook. They post engaging content on Facebook about their work, and interior design tips at least twice a week.
And guess what this achieves in the mind of their clients?
They become interior design experts because their clients constantly get educated by them. And because they keep appearing in their client’s Facebook news feed, their clients think of M3 Studio any time they want to redesign their home. Just because they keep appearing with good content.
Education is the name of the game. Constantly educate, constantly post the right kinds of content, measure effectiveness, build trust, then sell your products.
Your customers will buy because they keep seeing you around and they trust you.
It works.
This is probably the most cost effective way to build a brand in the digital world we live in today, will give you an edge over your competitors, and can grow your sales year after year.

- [Three Words That Can Increase Sales From Your Social Media Marketing](https://www.heroesofdigital.com/social-media/three-words-that-can-increase-sales-from-your-social-media-marketing/): Your customers’ attention spans are getting shorter and shorter these days. Their attention span can range between 1-5 seconds. That’s not a lot of time to capture your visitors’ attention.
Why is understanding your visitor’s attention span important?
Because when you’re doing social media marketing in Singapore, you can be sure that your customer is not only checking out your Facebook page, but also your competitors’ Facebook page as well.
The customer will then look and compare Facebook pages, and stay on the pages that appeals to him or her.
So with the average attention span between 1-5 seconds, or even 10 seconds, you only have that time to make your visitors stay on your page.
How can you capture their attention in that short amount of time?
Three words: Unique Value Proposition (UVP)
Unique Value Proposition (UVP)
A UVP is a short statement about the unique value your company provides to your customers.
It is not a slogan or tagline.
Think of it as a short sentence that quickly tells customers how you are different, and why they should choose you. Some folks say that having a UVP doesn’t really matter. After all, most companies within the same industry offer pretty much the same services anyway, right?
Not so fast. In Hinge Marketing’s research, they’ve found that most of the high growth firms have a strong differentiator.
Your business can’t be a “me too” business. Offering everything to everyone just doesn’t work when you’re building a profitable business for a very simple reason: customers are getting smarter.
Customers don’t just check you out. They check out your competitors as well. They do research on you guys. They read up reviews. They read up about your products, before making a decision.
So, you need to stand out. You need to give them a reason to buy from you.
Take a look at these 5 examples of how UVP is displayed through a company’s Facebook page.
#1 Heroes of Digital
Of course the first example is ours 😉
Would you stay on our Facebook page longer after seeing this cover photo that greeted you immediately? Depends. If you’re not interested in doing social media, probably not. But if you’re a company that’s interested in running social media campaigns that increases sales, there’s a high chance that our Facebook page would capture your attention. All our Facebook posts are about social media marketing (some digital marketing). These serve to educate our prospects and clients, and would position us as the authority in this field.
#2 Artmani Italia Artmani Italia’s UVP is that it sells luxury furniture at very affordable prices. This UVP is supported by the high quality photos that are posted on their Facebook page, and product prices that are cheaper than other luxury furniture stores in Singapore.
Beneath this tagline – luxury furniture made affordable – is the belief that everyone should own a set of high quality sofa, or any other quality furniture that they sell. Their furniture is for the mass market. All the content on their Facebook page was created based on this belief. They have frequent promotions, lucky draws (to reward their own fans), educational content that help buyers make a more informed decision when it comes to purchasing furniture. Did I mention that we help them to generate 6 figures in sales consistently every month?
#3 Slimpify The headline on the Facebook cover clearly articulates their business positioning, and what they offer. It is very well written. In one sentence, it consists of proof (by doctors) and benefit (lose weight in 60 days), both of which makes a very good UVP. If you look at their Facebook posts, all the content are crafted carefully based on their UVP. If you’re a busy career lady, who has tried dieting to no avail, you might be interested in this medical weight loss program that guarantees results in just 60 days. This program doesn’t require you to exercise or diet. That is their UVP. And it is plasted all over their Facebook page.
#4 IKEA Singapore Find it faster. That’s the theme for IKEA’s current marketing strategy.
Coming up with UVP
Coming up with a UVP is not easy and can take a lot of time, but is probably one of the most important things you should be doing for your business.
It is a statement that once developed, can not only be used on your website, but all your marketing materials. It aligns your marketing messages and creates superior branding. It is the powerful magnet that automatically attracts customers to you.
So how do you go about developing a UVP?
The easiest way is to survey your customers. Ask them why they chose you in the first place. This will give you insights into factors that made customers choose you over your competitors.  Look for common themes.
You should also take a look at your competitors. What is everyone already doing? How can you be different? Can this difference be easily copied? Is it really unique? Does it matter to your customers? These are questions you should think about.
Then use these answers to craft a powerful statement. Plaster it on every page of your website in the header.
Use it for other marketing campaigns, even offline marketing campaigns.
Test it, measure it, and adapt if you need to.
A good social media marketing campaign, or any kind of marketing campaigns for that matter, starts from a UVP.
Heroes of Digital specializes in helping clients develop impactful UVPs that work, using our proprietary research system and formula. If you would like to develop a UVP that works for your business, contact us today.

Especially those who run small businesses. They wear many hats. Sometimes, they have to handle sales, accounting, operations, customer service, and EVEN as a chauffeur.

You don’t need to spend hours coming up with a content development strategy, wrecking your brains to come up with content ideas, planning your infographics and all that. Even if you’re strapped for time, there are ways to make writing blog posts a breeze. Here are some tips for the busy business owners:
- [How to Design a Website That Sells](https://www.heroesofdigital.com/digital-marketing/how-to-design-a-website-that-sells/): What’s the true goal of your website?
There are probably many answers to this, most commonly: To improve my brand To have an online presence At the end of the day, these answers all point to one goal: to help boost your business. To create a website that sells, the design a website needs to captures your customers’ attention and persuades them to do business with you.
A good website design sells its own sales pitch to customers. But how does one achieve this?
To design a website that sells and gets you more customers or clients, here are 6 principles to keep in mind:
1. Clear Value Proposition
A clear value proposition is a statement that shows your customers what your company is about. It must be simple and most importantly, persuasive enough to capture your customer’s attention.
In this digital age, your customers have too many options when it comes to choosing who they should buy from. A value proposition helps you win them over.
Value propositions are most effective when placed at the top of your website home page so it is immediately visible to all customers visiting your site.
Here are some examples:
View at Redbrick View at Yoghurt Labs View at Curt’s Special Recipe
2. Less Clutter
Take a look at this: Would you ever read the website? I’m guessing not, and I don’t blame you.
We all have very short attention spans these days. Clutter is the enemy of readability.
If your website looks cluttered or messy, no customer will take the time to read your content. A sales-driven website should be, cleanly designed, use easy-to-read fonts, and have key pieces of information placed in strategic locations Easy reads encourage customers to read more about your business.
Here’s a visual representation of the idea: This difference can make it or break it for your business.
3. Email Marketing
Email marketing, another form of content marketing for businesses, is simply the art and science of using email to market to your consumers.
Here’s a harsh fact: Most of your customers leave your website without converting.
It is estimated that only 3% of new customers purchase immediately, 45% want to consider their options, weigh out pros and cons before committing, and the rest will never buy.
That is why every website should make it a priority to capture leads of these new customers as soon as they visit.
Through email addresses, businesses can continue to engage with the 45% potential customers to gain more revenue and market share.
How do you capture email addresses? You implement an email lead magnet: offer something of value to potential customers in exchange for their email address.
Some examples here: When we work with our clients, we help them plan and think of the best email lead magnets to use for their business.
4. Proof Elements
People only buy from you when they trust or believe in your product.
Without belief, there is no sale. Period.
In order to get people to trust you, you need to include proof elements to your websites.
Proof elements are basically items on a website that helps build proof of your credibility.
Examples of proof elements: testimonials endorsements video demonstrations content that demonstrates your expertise social proof like number of Facebook likes, and etc. With more proof comes more believability, and more believability means more clients.
Here are some examples of the use of proof elements on a website: 5. Persuasive content
Visitors often arrive at websites looking for a factor for comparison against your competitors. Therefore, the content on your website needs to be persuasive and benefit-oriented.
Your website should be able to persuade visitors to choose you over competitors for the various benefits that you offer.
Tip: Write your content for your customer, not for yourself. Focus on what benefits they can get from your company.
6. Call to actions
Once you’ve successfully won your customer over, he’s likely to make a purchase.
An effective website would have call-to-actions located at places easily visible to customers.
Call-to-actions on a website are such as: You business contact number at header and footer of your website “Contact Us” at navigation bar Call-to-action buttons at homepage or landing pages, for example, “Buy Now” or “Read More” A good call-to-action encourages your customers to take that next step, which means more revenue for your company.
