Based on my experience, I can highlight three rules for effective project marketing promotion.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I have been involved in the creation of many IT startups, many of which we promoted through influencers, now stylishly called Web3 KOLs. Our SMM department’s job was to find and select bloggers, verify the quality of their content, create a technical brief for advertising, check its release, and fine-tune the sales funnel. In addition to this, we have been very successful in, and continue to focus on, targeted advertising. Given all this experience, I can highlight three rules for effective project promotion:<\/span><\/p>\n Additionally, creatives can generally be divided into two categories:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Let\u2019s dive deeper into each of these three rules.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n When promoting through influencers, it’s crucial to consider the context of both the influencer’s life and their followers. If you’re advertising on a blog dedicated to programming, the audience is highly likely to be tech-savvy. However, if you decide to buy an ad space on this blog for a crypto trading app, the results will be significantly worse, and this example highlights the importance of context.<\/span><\/p>\n Let’s model a situation: the influencer travels a lot, and our product is a crypto exchange. So, we integrate the crypto exchange ad into the influencer’s everyday content. For instance, we could create a scenario where selling cryptocurrency through our exchange is portrayed as much more economically efficient than using traditional banking. The influencer could sell crypto on the local p2p market at a much better rate than if they used the banking system.<\/span><\/p>\n In other words, we seamlessly adapt the ad integration to the influencer\u2019s current life situation and context.<\/span><\/p>\n When advertising through influencers, we tailor the message to fit the influencer’s life situation and audience. However, in targeted advertising, the creative acts as an “audience filter.” It attracts only those for whom the topic is truly relevant. Targeting settings are important, but the creative is far more effective at filtering out those who need your offer “here and now,” aligning with the internal dialogue of your target audience.<\/span><\/p>\n Let me give an example: a few years ago, my dog got sick, and while working online, my attention was almost entirely drawn to ads promoting medications and related products. Naturally, I didn\u2019t notice those ads before my dog got sick. After my dog recovered, I stopped paying attention to them again. My attention was focused only during the period when this situation was happening.<\/span><\/p>\n This brings us to the main takeaway of targeted advertising \u2014 if the audience has a problem, they will latch onto your ad and buy your product or service. Otherwise, there won’t be any leads.<\/span><\/p>\n It’s no secret that different people refer to the same things in different ways; moreover, we associate them differently in our minds. For example, close your eyes and imagine your dream vehicle. I imagined a big black SUV; somebody else would imagine a private jet, and what did you imagine, a super yacht? Let me know in the comments. This example illustrates the next point perfectly: when you speak the language of your target audience, want it or not, you always evoke some particular associations that come to their minds when you mention a specific problem. And you either gain clients or you don\u2019t. Yes, it\u2019s really that simple.<\/span><\/p>\n In 2016, at the dawn of blockchain, everyone thought it was just another pyramid scheme. Executing a simple transaction in Bitcoin<\/strong> required fundamental knowledge of cryptography and computer science. But shortly after, major crypto exchanges like OKX and Binance<\/strong> emerged, investing in user interfaces and making them look as established as traditional banking portals. <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n This changed the association in mass minds from a Ponzi scheme to a serious investment instrument. This seemingly small step led to the first wave of mass adoption in cryptocurrency and literally opened up a new market.<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Let me give an example from our own experience. One of my clients was launching a crypto exchange. He was confident that people wanted to trade cryptocurrencies similarly to traditional exchanges. However, when we conducted user surveys and A\/B tests, we discovered that users actually needed a platform where they could buy and sell USDT to send and receive from one another.<\/span><\/p>\n We adjusted the targeting and changed the creatives to reflect users\u2019 needs. As a result, the client\u2019s crypto exchange saw explosive user growth while the cost per lead dropped significantly.<\/span><\/p>\n However, it\u2019s essential to realize that creatives are somewhat of a lottery since market narratives and trends change at lightning speed. Therefore, it\u2019s crucial to test several creatives simultaneously to capture different audience segments and stay on the cutting edge, like a surfer riding the wave.<\/span><\/p>\n Let\u2019s say you\u2019re selling programming courses. Your audience can be diverse: from students to stay-at-home moms. If you use the same creative for everyone, the results will be weak. You need to create unique creatives for each audience segment that speak their language and solve their specific problems.<\/span><\/p>\n One of the software products we worked on was a tool for finding psychologists. If we had used a generic creative like \u201cfind a psychologist in 20 minutes and have online sessions,\u201d we would\u2019ve ended up with very expensive leads, around $3, $5, or even $10.<\/span><\/p>\n However, when we addressed specific problems, such as \u201chow to break free from a toxic relationship,\u201d \u201chow to stop being afraid of your partner,\u201d or \u201chow to set boundaries,\u201d we spoke in the language of the audience. These nuances in wording directly impacted the final cost per subscriber and helped us optimize the business process.<\/span><\/p>\n Thus, the third takeaway can be summarized as follows: it is crucial to speak the audience\u2019s language and tailor the creative to it.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n Creative content is the first thing your audience notices. Good creative attracts target clients who are ready to pay, while bad creative drains the budget without bringing in sales and, in some cases, even causes aversion. Always test multiple creatives and adapt them to fit your projects.<\/span><\/p>\n The three rules outlined above will help you shape your own marketing strategy, allowing you to capture and retain attention on your project.<\/span><\/p>\n Additionally, you can always reach out to our company, and we’ll do everything we can to improve your project.<\/span><\/p>\n READ MORE:<\/strong><\/p>\n Based on my experience, I can highlight three rules for effective project marketing promotion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mo_disable_npp":"","yasr_overall_rating":0,"yasr_post_is_review":"","yasr_auto_insert_disabled":"","yasr_review_type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[39],"class_list":["post-1438","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-marketing"],"acf":{"image":1439},"yasr_visitor_votes":{"number_of_votes":0,"sum_votes":0,"stars_attributes":{"read_only":false,"span_bottom":false}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1438","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1438"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1438\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1479,"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1438\/revisions\/1479"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1438"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1438"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1438"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
