3 Advertising Mistakes that Will Make Your Customers Walk Away

By Walter Jackson


You may think that marketing mistakes are generally isolated and specific to one type of marketing or another. It's generally only the largest and most obvious mistakes made by big companies that get reported in the media. It really doesn't matter type of business model is being used, as mistakes can be made across the board. They are not confined to companies of certain sizes or who use certain tactics. The earlier you can spot any such mistakes, the easier it is to change course and correct them. Most mistakes, such as the ones we'll be covering below, are quite easy to avoid once you're familiar with them.

You assume that you are doing something right until you discover otherwise. For example think about coupon codes and how they are programmed. You will sometimes have a program where you put in the code last. What some businesses want is to apply the discount after you pay the full price. Yes, this does occur. Some customers will fall for this, but most will not. Place your coupon codes properly and compute the price correctly.

It's great to be able to do business with people who speak different languages. When doing business with the Spanish speaking markets, the possibilities are endless. So, you will have the desire to sell them different products. But, keep in mind that software translators do not work at all. These are the software translators that you can utilize on your website for the purpose of automatically changing a different language. But, this is not good translation software. However, this is something that is good to have, but the technology has not been successful as of yet. Hire a pro to translate these languages and not get bad translation software.

When people reach the top of the company or corporation, something actually happens to them. Usually, they depart from the real world, which is usually what management tends to do. Those that get to these levels of management begin to forget about the business itself. They no longer can think from a worker's point of view. So don't let that happen to you, and if it has then correct it. When it comes to the reality of your business, and how it runs, you should not turn to middle management at all. You have to interact with the workers if you want to stay grounded in the reality of your business.

As your business starts to take off, it's important to stay true to your basic values. It's fine to be confident about your successes, but letting your attitudes get out of hand is risky. No matter what stage your business is at right now, keep a close watch on what is and isn't working for you. No one is perfect, but we can learn from our mistakes and even from the mistakes of others. So try to maintain balance and a steady approach to what you are doing in your marketing and advertising.
