With a limited budget, I’d start with the channel where your target customers are most active and test it on a small scale. For example, social media can be a good starting point if your product is visual, while email marketing works well if you already have a customer list. I’d set a clear goal, track results for a few weeks, and adjust before spending more. It’s better to learn from one focused experiment than spread your budget too thin across every channel.
First of all, I have limited funds to use, but I know too many channels through which to advertise my product. These include social media, Google ads, email marketing, flyer distribution, and a friend constantly urges me to make a YouTube channel. I cannot manage them all and I cannot afford trying all of them because there will be not enough time to give each of them a fair chance. Having studied the ways how digital marketing Bristol companies select their promotion channels, I saw that most of them use a combination of all of them. However, it seems good for those people who have unlimited funds, and it does not solve the problem of someone who can only afford one channel at a time. If you started again, what channel would you choose first, and why? Did you test several options or you made a choice straight away? I would like to know about cases when people chose a wrong channel and how long they needed to understand it.
