The zero point before every eshop promotional activity.<\/h2>\n

This is not a blog post that will tell you to advertise on Google.<\/p>\n

Nor is it a post that will tell you to exploit the endless possibilities & tools of Facebook, Instagram or Linkedin.<\/p>\n

What’s more, we won’t tell you to get your eshop in famous marketplaces such as eBay, Aliexpress & Amazon (or Skroutz & Bestprice for Greece) to start selling.<\/p>\n

You know all this stuff.<\/p>\n

Depending on the industry of your eShop, there are a dozen different ways to use digital marketing<\/strong> tools in order to reach your end goal, that of more sales.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some people are loyal to Google Ads, others are SEO\u2019s strongest supporters and others want to start selling with a boost post on Facebook. Others again, they do it all together, invest a lot, and pray for the better. And there are also those who have passed the zero point.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a post about the point where every eShop owner has to get to.<\/p>\n

THE POINT JUST BEFORE STRATEGY. <\/strong>Too much theory here?<\/p>\n

EVEN BEFORE SETTING YOUR OBJECTIVES<\/strong>. Keep reading…<\/p>\n

eShop promotion: Why you first need to deploy a digital marketing strategy?<\/h2>\n

Let’s go to see what happens if you invest in digital marketing without strategy.<\/p>\n

Good scenario<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the good scenario, you are lucky enough to do all the digital marketing actions that you’ve chosen well, technically speaking. Perhaps you have attended a seminar on digital marketing tools, or you are self-taught with udemy webinars and a lot of web reading. Whatever you did you managed to bring some sales for your eshop and spent your budget.<\/p>\n

But let’s go a little further:<\/p>\n

How much do you spend to bring X sales?<\/p>\n

Is there an actual profit from all this effort<\/strong> or you sell to pay Google & Facebook?<\/p>\n

Could you make better use of your budget? Where else should you target to bring even more sales and profits?<\/p>\n

The answer to all these comes through the zero point. Continue reading…<\/p>\n

Bad Scenario<\/strong><\/p>\n

In this case, you have made the mistake of clicking “boost post” on Facebook with automatic ads. Or you activated your Google Adwords Express account and ran an ad with default settings.<\/p>\n

Time-saving<\/strong> maybe … But it’s a pity that you did not use the targeting options given by these platforms, and you probably flopped your good money without selling. The point here is that sales did not come for two reasons: Either there was no strategy<\/strong> behind the actions or digital marketing tools were not properly used to serve your eShop goals. And no, it is not the fault of Google and Mark who have spent your good money.<\/p>\n

So how will you have a digital marketing strategy to promote your eshop?<\/p>\n

“Point zero is all about the research and the analysis of your company and your market.”<\/h2>\n

\"Team<\/p>\n

We “reveal” our approach to the digital marketing of an eShop. These are some of the most basic questions we ask as a digital agency to our clients.<\/p>\n

Obviously, each branch is different and each eShop has its own DNA, but by answering the following questions you will be able to have a clearer picture of what you are going to do and why you will do it.<\/p>\n

Questions to be answered at the zero point:<\/strong><\/p>\n
