MEDIA MIX
Finding the right locations for your different advertisements can be challenging at first. One of the best places to start is with an analysis of your target audience—where do they tend to be both physically and digitally?
Figuring out a variety of these kinds of spots can help you pinpoint the best option for you. Be sure to do your best to use social media as it is such a huge part of consumers’ lives. Certain platforms like Facebook give you options that allow you to target your ads quite specifically to your target demographic.

AD FREQUENCY
Another important factor of your advertising strategy to figure out is your ad frequency. It’s important to strike the right balance between staying present in your viewers’ and consumers’ lives and not overloading them with information. Having the right ad frequency will keep you from wasting your budget, while still getting eyes on your ads.
Make sure to continue to measure the leads and clicks that result from each type of ad you run. Doing so will help you identify where to focus your resources and where you can afford to lessen your attention a bit.

CONTENT MARKETING
In addition to figuring out how to place your ads well, you should also develop a content marketing strategy. Content marketing basically involves creating any kind of content whether video, blog, or another form of content and then sponsoring that content on a different site.
Because the content in and of itself is helpful to the consumer, it tends to lead the consumer to actually look into your company or to at very least start to see your company as something of an expert in the field.

As you go forward with your advertising strategy, make sure you take the time to assess your advertisements and make sure they clearly connect to your brand identity and purpose. It is surprising how frequently advertisements are designed in a way that does not make it easy for the consumer to understand the nature of the company at first glance. You want your advertisements to communicate who you are quickly and effectively.
