The Benefits of an Internet Ad Agency

These days everybody wants your advertising dollars. “Give us your money and we will make you number one, give us your money and your business will double in profit.” But the real question every business person should be asking is, “What kind of ROI am I getting on my advertising dollars?” This question will weed out the competition. Why? Advertisers have no problems spending your money, but if you ask them to track where your money is being spent some of them will start to choke. However, that’s not the case with a good internet advertising company backing you. For once you can have your cake and eat it too.

Where are the Results?

First off, you don’t pay if there are no results. When is the last time your ad agency told you that if your TV, print or radio campaign didn’t drive traffic they would foot the entire bill. I used to work at a traditional ad agency and I didn’t hear those words come out of anyone’s mouth. It was always “well let’s see what we can do to improve it,” but no one was giving money back. In the case of internet advertising, when they click on your sponsored ad you pay for it and when they don’t click on your ad you don’t pay for it. Have you found a deal that good with a traditional ad agency? If you are one of the rare one’s who have, don’t let them go. If you’re one of the 99% whose paid and seen no results, you should consider internet advertising, especially since you can track it.

How can I track it?

Having access to track your ad and knowing your ROI is definitely a plus for any business person. Tools such as Google Analytics, Omniture, Hit Box, and others allow you to track the users that visit your site, in great detail. Google Analytics allows you to track what pages a user visited the most, what city they are searching from, what keywords caused the most conversions on your page and so much more. Lets do a hypothetical for a moment- What if you’re located in Kansas Missouri and you sell stuffed animals. Let’s say you’ve been thinking about expanding your business and opening up a 3rd location in a major city but you’re not sure where. You’ve thought about Atlanta, Chicago, and Dallas and everyone’s been telling you to open a store in Atlanta. After looking at Google Analytics and checking your financial books you realize that 55% of your revenue is coming from the internet, and more than 35% of those people have searched to see if there is a store near them. Furthermore, you see that most of your internet conversions are coming from people located in Chicago. Bingo! Now you know where to open your second store. How easy was that? But you’re a busy business person and you don’t have time to track?
