Online Marketing : A field of opportunities
As of 2012, 86% of the New Zealand population are online. Therefore, it is not surprising that more and more successful New Zealand companies are adopting sophisticated online marketing strategies to target their customers.
Just having a website is no longer the answer. Long gone are the days of the 'build it and they will come' attitude. In order to be successful online, a company must use multiple methods to reach their audience. Online marketing is only a piece of the marketing mix but it is an integral part because it is where people are.
Try and think of your website as a hub that receives potential customers through multiple channels, each of which are a valuable source of potential sales.

This may incorporate search engine optimisation, but is usually associated with pay-per-click (PPC) marketing, whereby a website owner pays for their website to appear in the sponsored section of search results. The most well-known of the SEM providers are Google AdWords, Yahoo! Search Marketing and Microsoft AdCenter.
The increasing popularity of video platforms such as YouTube has heightened the value and reach of video marketing. New and original videos can go viral and have positive impacts on a company. A great example of a viral marketing video is the Dollar Shave Club video,with 6,931,144 and counting!
