How to use various social media platforms has been an interesting question asked on the GroCurv marketplace often.

B2B companies, fast growing but smaller in size have often wondered about Linkedin.

  • How do we start?
  • How much?
  • What kind of content?

In responding to these questions, we decided to look at how brands (SME) are using Linkedin and what are the good success stories out there. B2C as well as B2B.

Why do we like Google PPC

Why we believe in Google Pay Per Click advertising for our business

Firstly, a very quick definition of what Google PPC (Pay per click is all about).

People search for products and services on google.

As a seller, you have the option to advertise your website when such a search happens. When a prospective customer then sees your advertisement on the search page and clicks to reach your webpage, you pay google some money.

Diwali advertising 2020

Well, Isn’t Diwali a time for something new?

For a festival that thrives on bringing in the new, one would think marketers would search for that bright new spark (pun intended) to set aside their advertising. After all, it’s a big season - with some categories reporting 50% of annual sales around the time.

It’s also a festival that comes towards the end of the Roman year, one would think leaving us with a lot to look back upon. How a world changed. How it met new challenges, and how its readying for the year ahead.

The CARS24 advertising journey

Cars24 New Ad Campaign

So what do you think works well for your brand? Emotional advertising? Functional advertising? Both?

The recent CARS24 campaign got us thinking about this. Selling your car via a tech enabled intermediary. CARS24 is creating a whole new experience in facilitating the sale of your car. As someone who has both the pre and post CARS24 car selling experience, CARS24 was a blessing. No more newspaper ads, OLX pesky callers, brokers – I was in control of the selling experience.

So no surprise that it has been a very fast growing company building the market as well as bringing in competition into the category.

Can we avoid Digital Marketing?

Over the past few months, as physical mobility has been impacted, brands have looked online for two important needs:

  • Getting products/services to consumers
  • Getting brand messages to consumers

For many companies, large and small, a strong sales team was the solution to getting products on shop shelves, and communication to the shop walls.

Now as the offline world is restricted, companies and brands are looking for more efficient and effective ways to reach their distribution channels and their consumers.
