Successful IT marketing campaigns can be based on having well-crafted case studies and the appropriate details on your website.  The following suggestions can help you improve your skills at IT marketing.

Two Important IT Marketing Tools

Two critical IT marketing elements are case studies and your website.  These items show prospects that you offer the best solution for their businesses.

Case Studies

What is a case study?  A case study is essentially a very sophisticated testimonial that has a picture of your client with the logo, full name, address and contact information.  

A case study offers a few paragraphs discussing the benefits the client has received from working with your firm along with a signed endorsement and your firm’s contact information.  This IT marketing tool encourages prospects to contact you and should be relevant to your specific niche.  

Websites

A website is essential for IT marketing.  Make sure your website has content that will impact your clients.  You don’t want to waste space discussing that you offer the cheapest power supply or motherboard.  Instead focus on solutions and solving IT problems for small businesses.

Each page on your website should target your niche.  If you have three niches you’re addressing as part of your IT marketing, give each one a separate page and make sure each talks about industry-specific problems your IT solutions address.  This means you have to know your niche inside and out and know what software packages will move people to choose you over other solution providers.  Stress Benefits on every part of your website.  

IT Marketing:  It’s About Service

Your website and any other IT marketing materials should focus on service.  Most of your website traffic will come from the following places:

1.    Demand generated somewhere else.  The website is acting as a substitute for an expensive, glossy brochure.

2.    Competitors that are looking at your website looking for information about your company.

Prospects need to know when they look at your website that you are providing services, not commodities.  They also need to know what problems they have to fully understand how you can fully meet their IT needs.

Use case studies and your website as IT marketing tools to get your business ahead.
