Is your marketing campaign working?


Is your marketing campaign working? Answer that question honestly. After putting in all of the time and effort necessary to create an advertising campaign, it can be discouraging and difficult to admit that it did not work, but admitting failure is the first step towards making the changes that will lead to marketing success.

There are many reasons why an advertising campaign may not have worked. Perhaps you failed to create a strong brand. Maybe your ads did not reach out to your target market the way you thought they would. Regardless of the reason, you need to make the changes that will increase your success.


First, look at your business itself. Are you providing what you are advertising to your clients? Perhaps your lack of success is not due to poor branding, but rather to poor business strategies. Take the time to make your business successful from the inside first.

If you are providing the right service or product to your customers, yet your marketing efforts are still failing, then it is time to look at your brand. Remember, making huge changes to your brand puts you at risk of losing the customers you already have. These customers are comfortable with your brand and easily recognize it as a part of your business. Changing it completely may confuse them.

However, small, subtle changes may be possible. You could add a new character or slogan to your brand, making it more appealing and effective. This can be done without the danger of losing your current customers.

Sometimes it is impossible to work with a failing brand as it is. Perhaps you need to appeal to a new customer demographic, and this is only possible by completely overhauling your existing advertising campaigns. If completely redoing your brand is necessary, take some time to think bout what it is you want your brand to accomplish. Even when redoing your brand, consider ways you can keep part of your old image in the new one. Again, this keeps the brand associated with your business, while adding the fresh element that you need to succeed.

When you are ready to redo your brand, do as much as possible at the same time. Redo your website, your business cards, your postcards, and your flyers all at the same time. Be sure to let your commercial color printing service know of the changes you anticipate. Changing everything at once will help the new brand stick much faster while eliminating some of the confusion that is bound to happen when revamping your image.

If the time has come to redo your brand to improve your company's image, take the time to plan the process carefully. Implement all of the changes at once, and start your new advertising campaign. Take steps to make sure that your business is providing what you are promising in your ads. By creating a new brand that better matches your business, you can set yourself apart from your competition.
