1Take Note of These 3 Offline Marketing Trends for
2021
2 - Everyones so focused on digital marketing. We
get it its seemingly more measurable and
cost-effective than offline marketing. But the
word to focus on is seemingly because you can
still measure offline marketing, and it can be
cost-effective, too. - 28 of marketers say they reduced their
traditional advertising budget to fund digital
marketing activities. Why should you care about
that? Because their focus isnt on offline
marketing, so theres a real opportunity to
establish your brand in an offline capacity. - Were not advocating binning your digital
marketing efforts, far from it. But we reckon if
you just gave this blog a quick glance, youd
realise you could be missing out on many chances
to find and engage your target audience or boost
your brand awareness or maybe both! - How exciting, lets find out more.
31.Building your brand in the community
- Throughout COVID, communities demonstrated how
powerful working together can be. Whether its
supporting local food delivery initiatives or
volunteering time at the local vaccination
centre. The community has played a big part in
how we all got through the last 12 months
together. - For example, through COVID, we worked on a client
campaign handing out branded hand sanitiser to
communities across Chicago. This proactive public
health campaign drove brand awareness for our
client and supported people when they needed it
most. Take a look at our campaign video. - But as the world starts opening back up, theres
a real opportunity for your organisation to get
involved in its local community setting. Whether
its sponsoring the local football team or taking
part in a community gardening project
associating your business with helping the
community will help you raise your brand profile
and get you some good PR opportunities, too.
4Building your brand in the community
- The aim of the game is to feel good about what
your company stands for. But its also a great
feeling when you get noticed for the good you do.
Find what your audience is passionate about and
get involved in local projects. - For example, if your audience is packed with
millennials, Linkfluence found seven values this
demographic stands for animal rights, feminism,
sustainability, environmental protection,
anti-racism, inclusiveness, and LGBT rights. - So, get out there and find a common passion
between you and your audience and dont forget
to shout about the good stuff youre doing.
5Connecting offline and online marketing can be
the key to getting audiences to interact and
acknowledge your brand wherever they go. Just
because your audience might hang out online
doesnt mean you can find out where they visit
offline and share your marketing messages in
person.
You might think flyer marketing is pointless,
immeasurable, and time-consuming. But youd be
wrong. On-street leaflet marketing, direct mail
or car hangers, to name a few, can massively
increase customer acquisition, skyrocket sales
and improve brand awareness.
Dont believe us? Uber Eats reached 45 million
people with their leaflet delivery campaign and
acquired 750 thousand new users. Impressive,
right? Imagine all those people just waiting to
spend their money on your promotion.

63.Guerrilla marketing campaigns
- The phrase originates from guerrilla warfare
meaning the element of surprise. Guerrilla
marketing was most popular back in October of
2004, as you can see from the graph below. The
graph also shows how the term guerrilla marketing
isnt really searched for too much now, which
could present an opportunity for your brand. - Following the leader and imitating tactics can
work well for digital marketing strategies such
as SEO or social media, but when it comes to
guerrilla marketing, you have a chance to be
creative for relatively little cost. - A great example of guerrilla marketing is the
kitchen roll brand Bounty. They created giant
plastic items and placed them around the high
street. Items included a spilt coffee and an ice
cream that looked like it was melting into the
pavement, with a sign next to them saying, Makes
small work of BIG spills. - Start thinking outside the box for
cost-effective, big-impact marketing strategies.
Dont forget to monitor press and social coverage
about your big campaign so you can effectively
measure results.
