Be Accessible to your Customers with Social Media
Social media efforts have mushroomed over the last couple of years among both small and large businesses.

Improve Your PPC Conversion Rate
Pay-Per-Click (PPC) campaigns need to be profitable. So paying for clicks that don’t convert can be frustrating and potentially expensive.
How do you turn more of those clicks into sales or leads? Here are, a few ideas to get you started improving your PPC conversion rate.
- Carefully read your competitor’s ads, before you write your own ad copy. Your goal is to differentiate your ad from your competitor’s ads. Give potential customers a reason to click on your ad instead of your competitors.
- The value/benefit of your product and your company needs to come through in your advertising copy. Potential customers have a problem they’re trying to solve, a need they’re trying to meet, how does your product or service help them do that?
