An effective and efficient marketing strategy is one that can achieve your marketing goals with minimal cost and time.
First, determine your marketing goals, such as increasing awareness, traffic, conversion, retention, or referral. Then, identify your target market – who your potential customers are, their needs, preferences, and how to reach.
After that, choose marketing channels that align with your target market and marketing goals. There are many marketing channels you can use, such as:
Social media: Use social media to interact with millions of internet users, both organically and through paid advertising.
