Every entrepreneur knows: in order to increase income from a product or service provided, you need to use advertising. But not everyone is aware of which types of advertising are most effective and allow you to get more value at lower costs.

The concept and types of effective advertising

Advertising is a type of communication between people, in which there is the dissemination of information about something, mainly about a product or service. People have used her services from time immemorial. For quite a long time it was believed that this concept is associated with the exchange of information through all available means of communication. With the development of advertising, many new types of communication have appeared. These are such areas as exhibition activities (Exhibition Activities), branding (Branding), public relations (Public Relations), sponsorship (Sponsorship), direct marketing (Direct Marketing), advertising at points of sale (Pointof Sale), promotion of goods and services ( Sales Promotion) and many others. Advertising activity can be aimed at solving various problems, which gives rise to a large number of its varieties and distribution channels.

In the 21st century, with the advent and rapid development of technology, more than 20 different types of advertising have appeared. The business now has a huge choice of which effective form of advertising to use for their companies and which type of this product will bring great benefits. Now any organization, foundation, company and even an ordinary person who produces something cannot do without promotion. It is necessary to convey information about an activity, product or service to a potential audience. Due to the wide variety of means and prices, everyone can resort to his help.

As a rule, the larger the organization, the more money it allocates for its promotion. Such efficient investments bring high income. And with the growth of profits, the size of the advertising campaign increases so that as many people as possible learn about the new product. Therefore, well-known brands, whose scope is much wider than that of just starting their own business, allocate huge funds to maintain a positive image of the company so that people do not forget about their existence. Business growth inevitably leads to an increase in the budget allocated for these purposes.

It is believed that the more expensive the better. This is not always the case with advertising. You don't have to pay a lot if your audience is small, as it won't be effective. That is, you do not need to tell the whole country about the product if your customers are concentrated in only one city. In this case, it is better to choose a more economical type of promotion. However, advertising has its own characteristics and nuances that you need to know in order to get the maximum result with a small investment.

What kind of effective advertising is more suitable for promoting certain types of products and services? All goods can be divided into "emotional" and "rational". For the first type, it is better to choose television, radio or the Internet, where contact with the audience is possible. And for “rational” goods, newspapers, magazines, city outdoor banners or serious websites are more suitable. At the same time, it is important to understand the specifics of your products and target audience in order to determine the type of media that can better convey information. There are a lot of options. You need to explore all the possibilities, correlate them with the desired result and understand what kind of effective advertising is suitable specifically for your company. Pay attention to factors such as cost, region of distribution, time and place, number of contacts with potential customers.

What are the types of effective advertising on the Internet

Online advertising will suit any entrepreneur. Its key features are accessibility and interactivity, and it uses planning and performance monitoring systems to attract large groups of consumers. Therefore, it doesn't matter what you produce and for what audience. The Internet opens up tremendous opportunities for you.

contextual advertising

1. Banners and texts. This view is less annoying for website visitors and can be more effective. Ad units appear on websites of their respective content.
2. Search engine advertising. All effective types of advertising on the Internet will not be able to compare with ads in search engines. They appear when a visitor searches for a product through a search engine. Its request is also contained in the ad that appears on the right or left. That is, if this word is “sofa”, then the text will appear on the side: “Buy a sofa” or “The sofa factory will make quality sofas and chairs”. In most cases, a person is looking for the product they want to buy. For him to see your ad first, it must be higher in the list and contain the most frequently used words. Then it will become more efficient, but also expensive. The main operators of contextual advertising are Yandex.Direct, Google.AdWords, Begun.

Display advertising

This is a type of communication in the Internet space, in which advertising information, consisting of text, graphic or sound materials, is posted on various sites and is targeted at the target audience.

In most cases, this type is confused with display advertising because it is aimed at visual perception. But this concept is much broader. It includes different types of visual and audio information: videos, banners, branding.

Types of banners:

• Stretch marks - blocks similar to canvases hanging on the street are only located on sites at the top of the page.
• Richmedia - a flash banner containing animation and sounds that floats on top of the main page before it opens.
• Pop under - an automatically pop-up window that, when you try to close it, opens a new tab with an advertising page.
• Expanded banners - the view of the module that appears on the page at first in a small size, and when you hover over it with the mouse, it expands to full screen.
• Imitation Banners - banners resembling in size a message from a social network (Vkontakte or Facebook), located at the bottom of the page on the right or left.

Types of video advertising:

• Prerolls(pre-roll) - videos that a site visitor watches before opening the page he needs.
• Mid-rolls (mid-roll) and post rolls(post-roll) - videos shown in the middle or at the end of the video material selected by the viewer.
• Overlay (overlay) is a graphic banner that is displayed during video playback.

Display advertising is one of the most effective types of modern advertising that brings much more value than the traditional option. This is achieved thanks to clear targeting, that is, the ability to determine from the entire audience only that part of it that fits the given criteria. Demonstration of a video or banner takes place depending on the thematic focus of the site. The audience can be adjusted by time of display, region, frequency and other parameters, which helps to attract more attention of potential customers.

Teaser advertisement

This is a small image and small text that briefly introduces the product. "Teaser" means getting attention. Its main tricks are tantalizing headlines and bright, catchy images that can arouse the user's curiosity and encourage them to visit the site.

To make this advertisement more effective, it is better to use the services of teaser networks. This is a network of affiliate sites where you can post your ads and make money on it. They have a wide and flexible range of settings for choosing a target audience or geo-targeting. Here are examples of some effective types of teaser networks: Kadam.ru, Direct / ADVERT, Visitweb.com, RedClick.ru, TeaserNet.com.

Such effective types of modern advertising, as teaser ads, depend on the originality of the chosen approach - it should distinguish you from the already annoying and annoying usual promotional campaigns. But if there is no individuality, the result can be an effect completely opposite to expectations.

Advertising in thematic blogs

These are reviews and messages on forums, blogs, websites. They are addressed to a specific user. If a person decides to purchase a certain type of product, then when searching on the Internet, he pays attention to reviews about it purchased from a specific manufacturer. Based on these responses, under which the advertisement is disguised, the client makes his choice. He believes that since people use a product, it means that it is good and of high quality.

• Banner, display advertising, presented in the form of an image, which should be very original and be remembered by the visitor for a long time. In order for a person to follow the link to the manufacturer's website, the banner must look the most non-standard and eye-catching. Perhaps this type of promotion will be annoying, but the effectiveness and efficiency here is much higher than that of traditional methods.
• PPC advertising helps to increase sales. It is used in conjunction with banner and text and is demonstrated only if there is interest in the product.
• Text ads describe products through a text ad. Remembered thanks to the laconic slogan.

Advertising on thematic sites

This is an effective form of advertising in which different sites act as a place to place your ads. They can be presented in the form of text, animation, or graphic banner. The main feature here is that ads and site content should be thematically similar. This type is able to attract a very large number of potential buyers. At the same time, site owners earn good income from advertising. They earn a certain percentage per click, that is, from each click on a link posted on the site to the advertiser's portal. Some people do not like to search for goods through search engines or may not be aware of the existence of this type of service. Advertising on the site allows these people to decide that they need a specific product. If there are thousands of them, you will get a serious income that stimulates site owners to develop their business.

Social media advertising

This is an opportunity to convey information about products to the target audience through announcements or creating special groups, organizing promotions. Such an effective type of advertising differs in that almost everyone uses social networks, and this gives even greater audience coverage.

1. General social media - the most common type. These are VKontakte and Odnoklassniki for Russia and Facebook and Bebo for the West. Here users can chat, show photos, watch movies and listen to music. Advertising campaigns carried out on such social networks are focused on the target audience. You can also post ads in thematic groups.
2. Professional social networks - these are types of social networks such as the Russian "Moi Krug", "Professionals" and "Rb.ru" and the Western "XING" and "Linkedln". They are aimed at representatives of a particular profession. Here employers are looking for employees and vice versa. Everything is subordinated to working moments: the news of the company, corporate reports, various types of press releases are published in the feed.
3. Social networks by interests... Interests can be of different types: cinema, music, books or modern technology. On their basis, people unite. Russians love MySpace and Last.fm the most. “MyAnimeList” is popular in the West. Here ads should be of a specific theme that suits the needs of the audience.

• Viral marketing Is a type of distribution of information about a product or service, in which people themselves transfer information to each other. The most effective way is to use a video, which is first posted on social networks specializing in video (YouTube, Vimeo, RuTube), or in VKontakte thematic groups, and then the users themselves begin to distribute this video among their friends.
• Guerrilla marketing contributes to the formation of an opinion about a product or service. Potential buyers trust people with personal experience more than advertisements in official sources. Effective guerrilla marketing works like this: a person creates an account on a social network and begins to create an environment for himself, makes acquaintances, and participates in discussions. When trust in him increases, the main actions begin - it is necessary to praise the desired product and scold competitors. You can write posts on your page or in thematic discussions. The main thing is to talk about supposedly your own experience, this method allows you to create trust among readers.
• Articles and publicationsposted on certain social media will be more beneficial than those posted on professional sites. Finding your target audience in social networks is much easier. It makes no sense to publish an article about the release of a new book or film on highly specialized sites devoted to literature or cinema. The best result from such a publication will be achieved when it is posted in the Vkontakte thematic group, where the number of subscribers exceeds a million.

Advertising on social networks addresses directly the target audience, since it allows you to customize targeting based on various criteria: location, gender, age, occupation, interests. This is its undoubted advantage.

Advertising on news portals

It can be present in the form of PR articles (articles with a veiled advertising message), content advertisements (text blocks with similar topics), or regular banners (pop-up blocks). Such an effective form of advertising is placed on specialized news sites and helps to attract the attention of a large circle of people who are used to tracking the latest events on these portals. A wide audience coverage is formed due to the fact that news appears every hour. Both managers and ordinary people who need to be aware of the situation in the world of politics and economics or in the field of culture visit news portals several times a day. They share the information they are most interested in with friends or publish links to specific news in their social media profiles, attracting even more attention to the resource. And they all see advertising information on this page. By clicking on a banner or text, potential customers go to the advertiser's website and, if they are interested in a product or service, make a purchase, which means that the advertisement has paid off.

Some entrepreneurs, as well as their managers, do not like direct advertising because it will not bring enough profit. They believe that the most effective form of modern advertising is articles in various media. But it is rather difficult to write a good article in which the advertising component is not obvious. Therefore, it is better to compose press releases. This is a small text, the main function of which is the presentation of a new product or service, an announcement of an event in the life of a company or an invitation to an event. Such articles come out less expensive than ordinary ones due to their brevity and brevity. And they convey information to the audience in a more concrete and effective form.

Search engine optimization (SEO)

This is a special type of content preparation, designed to be the very first to display information about a site when requested in any search engine. That is, if a person enters a word or phrase into the search, then the same words must be present in a certain way in the texts on the site, so that he appears among those found one of the first. Indeed, often a visitor looking for information or a product on the Internet does not go further than the initial page with a list of possible resources that the search engine gives out. Therefore, it is extremely important to be at the top of the sheet to get more visits.

Effective optimization options:

• White optimization... It includes all types of optimization that do not contradict the rules of search engines. This means the correct composition of the content of the site itself, its internal content, as well as actions outside of it: the dissemination of information on other sites, the publication of press releases and articles, the use of the possibilities of social networks and partner programs. In this case, a link to the resource is always indicated, by clicking on which the visitor gets to the optimized site.
• Gray optimization... This type of work involves the use of key phrases in the texts. Sometimes they violate the laws of the Russian language: "Milk is a dairy product containing milk fats." For the optimizer to work more efficiently, it must go through several stages. First, the most frequent queries in search engines for a specific category of goods are identified. The most frequently used words are selected from the received words, and key phrases are composed on their basis. Then it is determined how many such phrases should be reflected in the text, as well as their density, the number of exact occurrences and with possible morphological and grammatical changes. Based on these data, an article is being written, which will be published on the site.
• Black optimization... This includes all types and methods of site promotion that affect the algorithms of the search engines. The following options are possible: using on the page texts with a large number of effective key queries (doorways), placing hidden text, using "single-pixel links", using cloaking techniques. This is a kind of optimization, when the user is shown one page, and another is created for the search robot.

Email newsletter

Sending emails containing information about new products, services, events or any other information that needs to be conveyed as quickly as possible to subscribers and target audience. The main advantages of this type are fast notification, maximum audience coverage at minimum cost. Regular mailing is the most effective type of advertising in terms of creating a positive reputation of the company among potential customers, confirming its reliability and guaranteeing the production of quality products.

The most effective types of outdoor advertising

What effective types of advertising exist today? To answer this question, let us examine another type of advertising, which does not require large investments and has long established itself as a completely effective way to convey information about a product or service to the consumer. This type is outdoor advertising. It includes all types of promotion that are used on the streets of the city, that is, everything that any passer-by on the street or a person standing in a traffic jam can see. This method is aimed at the widest coverage of consumers and does not cost very much money.

The purpose of outdoor advertising is to remind about an existing product or tell about the location of an organization so that a person can easily find it. In the design, it is better to use an attention-grabbing picture and a laconic effective description. It is not recommended to place a more serious type of information in this way: a person is unlikely to perceive it correctly on the run. This feature can narrow the range of advertisers.

Important points for effective outdoor advertising are the correct use of design in the content design (so that it is easy to read and quickly perceived), as well as the choice of a suitable place for placement (so that it attracts the eyes of passers-by and is noticeable).

1. Shields. Surely everyone saw the pillars with shields familiar to us, located near the sidewalks and roads for cars. This type of promotion attracts attention, but it is important to understand that small inscriptions are not visible. You will achieve the expected result by writing the most important text in large letters and as simply as possible. It is also better to place information on several billboards so that a potential buyer will accurately draw attention to it. An important message should be placed on the working side of the shield, that is, facing the flow of people. The image on the other side will not be as effective as few people will turn around to read it.
2. Stretch marks. This is a kind of canvas stretched over the carriageway. They are easier to perceive due to the longer contact. Addresses and telephones that the viewer will not see on the billboards will be quite effective here.
3. Pointers. They are designed to guide the buyer in which direction the company or store is located. They are made in the form of arrows indicating the direction, therefore, they will not let your client get lost.
4. Signboard. This is a small billboard with the name of an office or store, located in front of the entrance to the building. It can attract attention from afar if you use a bright design in your decoration.
5. Pavement signs. These are folding structures on which the name of the company, its coordinates and the services provided are written. Usually they are located next to the building where the company is located.
6. Sandwich people. This is the name given to promoters handing out flyers or announcing something into a microphone. To attract attention, they dress up in colorful clothes, costumes of animals, cartoon characters or hog dogs.
7. Pneumatic figures. These are voluminous inflatable figures of various sizes that attract attention with their uniqueness.
8. Sticky application. This includes stickers, posters pasted on street poles, in entrances, in the subway and electric trains, on the walls of houses.
9. Urban constructions. Here we will list the booths and pedestals within the city limits on which advertisements are placed. The most efficient type is stops.
10. Advertising on and in public transport can be on the bus, metro, tram, trolleybus, electric trains and trains. This also includes advertising on taxi cars.
11. Advertising in elevators. This type is very informative and effective, because while a person travels to the desired floor, he has time to read all the information posted on the walls.

You need to understand what type of outdoor advertising you want to use, and, based on this, come up with a message text. If this is a type of "moving" advertisement, that is, which people quickly pass by, then the text will be catchy and large, containing only basic information. If it is a form of "static" advertisement on trains or elevators, where people have more time to read, then more information can be written.

It is better to use the full range of design techniques (look, font, size, fill) to make your information easier to read. The result depends on the number of people passing by. The cost varies from location, material, size, type. You can choose a not very expensive option that meets your goals.

The most effective types of modern advertising on TV and radio

Radio and television today are an integral part of every person's life. Television is now used as the main way of delivering information to the consumer. Since there is a TV in every home, advertising placed on TV, one way or another, reaches everyone. Therefore, it is the most expensive. And the point here is not only the price for the video, for the recording of which a large number of professionals are involved: actors, screenwriters, directors, editors and advertisers. Most of the money will have to be paid for airtime, which is very expensive. Therefore, only large brands can appear on federal TV channels. Smaller businesses are encouraged to use local or cable services. At the same time, do not forget about the region where your information is distributed. A product distributed only in Moscow will not be sold if it is advertised in Samara.

Videos. This is the main form of effective television advertising. Its average duration ranges from 15 to 30 seconds. Viewers will better perceive the original and colorful picture, because during the existence of television, everyone is already tired of primitive videos and switches the channel for the duration of the commercial break. Therefore, to record the most catchy plot, it is better to turn to professionals. Indeed, in the opposite case, the money spent will be simply thrown to the wind.

Ticker. Scrolling ads at the bottom of the screen, few people read and remember. But it is cheaper than shooting videos.

TV shops. This is the name of the type of special programs where products are demonstrated, and the presenters talk about their advantages, while showing them in action. A purchase can be made by calling.

Sponsorship. Becoming a sponsor of a program or screening of a film means creating a positive image for your company. Small businesses cannot afford such activities on central television, but on a local channel it will be much cheaper.

Effective television advertising is determined by the timing of its airing. In prime time, the largest number of viewers turn on the TV, and then she should appear. The most efficient hours are: in the morning from 07.00 to 07.45 and from 09.15 to 10.15 and in the evening from 20.30 to 21.30.

An important component is the plot of the program or film, during which your video is shown. Negative emotions from viewing can be associated with the advertisement seen at this moment.

A large number of videos can be shown in one block. The first and the last are best remembered by the audience.

Airtime on federal television is being sold out rather quickly. Everything is already sold out a year ahead, so you need to think about placement in advance.

Musical screensaver. This is such an effective form of radio advertising, in which the text is better remembered, as it is presented in rhymed form and accompanied by music. Musical arrangement contributes to a better perception of information due to the ease of presentation and conciseness of the text. For example, on New Year's Eve, everyone walks singing a song from a Coca-Cola advertisement: “The holiday always comes to us with Coca-Cola.

As in the case of television, more people listen to radio commercials in the morning when they go to work and in the evening when they return home. A better result can be achieved by submitting an ad to several radio stations and paying for the maximum number of repeats. Advertising will constantly sound on different waves and at different times, which over time will lead to the memorization of this brand of goods. This can facilitate the selection of your products over competitors.

Most effective types of advertising at all times

1) Business cards - an effective type of self-promotion, a way to present information about yourself and post your contact information. A business card is a sign of mutually beneficial business communication. The exchange of them begins the establishment of ties and partnerships. In any company, all employees have their own cards, which contain the name of the company, information about a specific employee: full name, position and contact information. This is not only information, but also a type of advertising for the company.

Technologies used in production

• Silkscreen method;
• Foil stamping technique;
• Thermal rise;
• Risography.

2) BrochuresAre small books containing information about a product or company. The brochures use text and photographs to describe and depict the advertised product. For prospectus printing we use high quality paper with all kinds of finishes - it is very important that your products are pleasant to hold in your hands and you want to look through them. To achieve the desired result, high-quality, pleasant to the touch materials and eye-catching bright pictures and texts with beautiful and contrasting fonts are used.

3) Forms - an effective form of advertising. In the modern world, all reputable companies use letterheads with their logos for documents. It lends a sense of reliability to the company as a business partner and sets its papers apart from others on the clients' desks. Such sheets determine the importance of what is printed on them. This is a big plus for the company, so any organization needs such help. A company that uses letterhead to print its documents is always treated favorably and more respectfully than other companies that have not yet realized the full benefits of this effective form of modern advertising.

Letterheads reflect more than just contact information. A properly developed design gives an idea of \u200b\u200bthe organization's activities, its life credo, contributes to recognition and the formation of a good reputation among the audience. Visual impression helps in solving many problems that cannot be resolved over the phone. The use of layout, graphic elements of corporate identity, color and font, convenient presentation of information, selection of special types of paper - all this has a positive effect on the image of the company.

The letterhead contains such types of information as logo, address and other contact details. Better to come up with its design in accordance with the overall corporate identity, because harmony in all the details will lead to the best business results. But if the latter already exists, then the form can be modified separately.

Letterheads are required for internal and external use. In the company, you can issue orders on them, draw up accounting reports, and conduct internal corporate correspondence. When communicating with clients on letterheads, you can draw up contracts and commercial offers, price lists, and poison business letters.

4) Envelopes are another effective form of advertising. In the era of virtual communication, e-mail correspondence and skype negotiations, receiving a paper letter in a company envelope will become an unforgettable experience, and respect and trust in your company will increase.

Envelopes are of the following types and sizes:

• Standard Euro envelopes E65 (110x220mm) with and without a window (used for sending business letters and letterhead folded in three);
• C5 (165x229mm, non-standard postcards or cards, as well as A4 sheet folded in half);
• С4 (229х324mm) with top and side flaps (business correspondence, magazines, brochures, brochures).

It is important to consider the fact that envelopes can be manufactured or sealed. Custom production has a number of advantages: selection of any size and type of paper, its shade and other characteristics. The only drawback is that the circulation must exceed 5 thousand copies, which is not always necessary. Products made in Russia will be an order of magnitude lower in quality than those made in Europe. However, the order in the latter is carried out only with large circulations. If you need a small amount, then it is better to use ready-made factory envelopes. Printing them will be cheaper, but the choice of material and paper will be limited.

5) Folders - a type of printing industry that has practical application. The corporate logo on them is one of the types of the most effective advertising of the company, which will constantly work for you. After all, folders can store important documents, and each time you open your logo, your logo will catch your eye, and this is a constant reminder to customers and.

Folders are of the following types:

The corporate folder presents the company as a solid and respectable organization. Therefore, visually, it must match - you should not be ashamed to come to a business meeting with it. Therefore, only contact information and the company logo should be applied.

6) Notepad... The main purpose of the notebook is to effectively advertise the company whose logo is printed on the cover. In this case, the appearance of the notebook does not play a big role: it can be a small checkered notebook or a solid book with a leather cover.

7) Flyers - one of the most effective types of advertising. It can be used to judge the quality of the goods. It should contain an interesting design, be varnished and executed on high-quality Finnish paper, and then your company will not go unnoticed.

The three main components of the flyer: a picture, a text describing the product and contact information with the company logo. When advertising technical products, diagrams and graphs are drawn up for greater clarity.

Any advertising product should stimulate the consumer to take certain actions. Depending on the specific purpose, the leaflet can have a special design, made in color or black and white style, be printed on various types of paper of any size, contain a list of prices or just tell about the advantages of the product.

8) Booklets - this is a type of effective advertising printing, which achieves high information content at a low price.

They are available in A4 format (210 x 297 mm) with two folds and A3 (297 x 420 mm) with one fold.

Booklets can be produced by:

• Lamination;

The three main components of the brochure are the same as those of the flyer: a picture, a text describing the goods and contact information with the company logo. When advertising technical products, visual diagrams and graphs are also drawn up.

9) Poster... Posters are placed on information boards and are used to grab the attention of the audience. They can be agitational, informational or supporting the image.

In the manufacture of this type of advertising products, four paints are used, lamination or varnishing. Lamination gives an advantage over rain, therefore it is more expensive. Cold lamination is used for large format posters. Films for her can be expensive, but will not spoil the images. If you need a large circulation, the best way to save money is to cover with offset varnish when printing.

For a better result, posters (posters glued to a corrugated cardboard base by laminating) and model models (large-format posters glued to a rigid cardboard base and cut along the contour) can be placed at points of sale.

10) Brochures - this is such an effective type of advertising printing, which is an excellent solution if you need to make a presentation of a product or arrange a large amount of information.

Preparing a brochure is an important and serious business. You need to know exactly what the goals of the release are. Consider effective design in line with the content. Embossed cardboard for the cover, tracing paper inserts or the use of a complementary color will all add to the look of the product. To add originality, you can order the pocket version or with horizontal stripes.

11) Covers... The corporate logo on the cover is one of the most effective types of company advertising that will constantly work for you.

12) Calendars... What type of advertising is the most effective among printing products? The answer is obvious - this is the calendar, the most popular and effective type of advertising printing. Use it not only as a stationery, but also as a platform for your own promotion, which does not require high costs, but benefits in different places throughout the year.

The origin of the word "calendar" goes back to the Latin "calendae", that is, calendars. The first days of each month were called Calendars in ancient Rome. And the word "calendarium" was used to describe a type of debt book, where every month records were made about debts paid on the first day. The modern meaning of the word as a system of reporting days, months and years appeared much later.

The popularity of calendars is growing every year. This is the most convenient way to establish your company among clients. It would be strange not to use a practical object as a business gift. Every entrepreneur gives it to his partners and clients. But now these paper products have become so diverse that you have to work hard to make the calendar with your company logo stand out, and it is he who would like to use as a working tool. For this to happen, a professional design must be used, because numerous potential customers can see the product on the top manager's desktop. You can be original and order not an ordinary, standard type of calendar, but, for example, a specialized one: accounting, lunar or with important dates.

The main advantages of this effective type of advertising printing are the possibility of its practical application in combination with the undoubted potential for expanding your audience. Its lifespan is much longer than that of other types of print advertising. It will always be visible, unlike various types of flyers, booklets or brochures, which can only be used once.

If your company has decided to participate in promotions, then nothing will bring you better results than using pocket calendars. They are perfect for advertising small products such as cosmetics, perfumes, sneakers, phones or tablets, and various types of alcohol. Making pocket calendars with medium runs will not be too expensive. It is not recommended to order less than 5,000 copies. Believe me, they will understand with a bang.

The second type of economical and efficient calendars is poster calendars. They are similar to posters, only they have a calendar grid. Produced for distribution at points of sale. The A2 basic format is produced by large format printing. The A3 poster will turn out to be too small to be hung not on the wall, and A1 is more expensive.

There can be a great variety of calendar design options. It can be made according to your wishes. Price and terms depend on the complexity of the order.

What type of advertising is the most effective

This analysis showed that the most effective type of modern advertising is Internet advertising and printing. It is important that when these two types are used together, the consumer will receive more information, and the degree of impact will be stronger.

But do not forget about such a serious aspect as the quality of advertising printing. Good products in the modern world are not always guaranteed.

Every entrepreneur knows: in order to increase income from a product or service provided, you need to use advertising. But not everyone is aware of which types of advertising are most effective and allow you to get more value at lower costs.

The concept and types of effective advertising

Advertising is a type of communication between people, in which there is the dissemination of information about something, mainly about a product or service. People have used her services from time immemorial. For quite a long time it was believed that this concept is associated with the exchange of information through all available means of communication. With the development of advertising, many new types of communication have appeared. These are such areas as exhibition activities (Exhibition Activities), branding (Branding), public relations (Public Relations), sponsorship (Sponsorship), direct marketing (Direct Marketing), advertising at points of sale (Pointof Sale), promotion of goods and services ( Sales Promotion) and many others. Advertising activity can be aimed at solving various problems, which gives rise to a large number of its varieties and distribution channels.

In the 21st century, with the advent and rapid development of technology, more than 20 different types of advertising have appeared. The business now has a huge choice of which effective form of advertising to use for their companies and which type of this product will bring great benefits. Now any organization, foundation, company and even an ordinary person who produces something cannot do without promotion. It is necessary to convey information about an activity, product or service to a potential audience. Due to the wide variety of means and prices, everyone can resort to his help.

As a rule, the larger the organization, the more money it allocates for its promotion. Such efficient investments bring high income. And with the growth of profits, the size of the advertising campaign increases so that as many people as possible learn about the new product. Therefore, well-known brands, whose scope is much wider than that of just starting their own business, allocate huge funds to maintain a positive image of the company so that people do not forget about their existence. Business growth inevitably leads to an increase in the budget allocated for these purposes.

It is believed that the more expensive the better. This is not always the case with advertising. You don't have to pay a lot if your audience is small, as it won't be effective. That is, you do not need to tell the whole country about the product if your customers are concentrated in only one city. In this case, it is better to choose a more economical type of promotion. However, advertising has its own characteristics and nuances that you need to know in order to get the maximum result with a small investment.

What kind of effective advertising is more suitable for promoting certain types of products and services? All goods can be divided into "emotional" and "rational". For the first type, it is better to choose television, radio or the Internet, where contact with the audience is possible. And for “rational” goods, newspapers, magazines, city outdoor banners or serious websites are more suitable. At the same time, it is important to understand the specifics of your products and target audience in order to determine the type of media that can better convey information. There are a lot of options. You need to explore all the possibilities, correlate them with the desired result and understand what kind of effective advertising is suitable specifically for your company. Pay attention to factors such as cost, region of distribution, time and place, number of contacts with potential customers.

What are the types of effective advertising on the Internet

Online advertising will suit any entrepreneur. Its key features are accessibility and interactivity, and it uses planning and performance monitoring systems to attract large groups of consumers. Therefore, it doesn't matter what you produce and for what audience. The Internet opens up tremendous opportunities for you.

contextual advertising

1. Banners and texts. This view is less annoying for website visitors and can be more effective. Ad units appear on websites of their respective content.
2. Search engine advertising. All effective types of advertising on the Internet will not be able to compare with ads in search engines. They appear when a visitor searches for a product through a search engine. Its request is also contained in the ad that appears on the right or left. That is, if this word is “sofa”, then the text will appear on the side: “Buy a sofa” or “The sofa factory will make quality sofas and chairs”. In most cases, a person is looking for the product they want to buy. For him to see your ad first, it must be higher in the list and contain the most frequently used words. Then it will become more efficient, but also expensive. The main operators of contextual advertising are Yandex.Direct, Google.AdWords, Begun.

Display advertising

This is a type of communication in the Internet space, in which advertising information, consisting of text, graphic or sound materials, is posted on various sites and is targeted at the target audience.

In most cases, this type is confused with display advertising because it is aimed at visual perception. But this concept is much broader. It includes different types of visual and audio information: videos, banners, branding.

Types of banners:

• Stretch marks - blocks similar to canvases hanging on the street are only located on sites at the top of the page.
• Richmedia - a flash banner containing animation and sounds that floats on top of the main page before it opens.
• Pop under - an automatically pop-up window that, when you try to close it, opens a new tab with an advertising page.
• Expanded banners - the view of the module that appears on the page at first in a small size, and when you hover over it with the mouse, it expands to full screen.
• Imitation Banners - banners resembling in size a message from a social network (Vkontakte or Facebook), located at the bottom of the page on the right or left.

Types of video advertising:

• Prerolls(pre-roll) - videos that a site visitor watches before opening the page he needs.
• Mid-rolls (mid-roll) and post rolls(post-roll) - videos shown in the middle or at the end of the video material selected by the viewer.
• Overlay (overlay) is a graphic banner that is displayed during video playback.

Display advertising is one of the most effective types of modern advertising that brings much more value than the traditional option. This is achieved thanks to clear targeting, that is, the ability to determine from the entire audience only that part of it that fits the given criteria. Demonstration of a video or banner takes place depending on the thematic focus of the site. The audience can be adjusted by time of display, region, frequency and other parameters, which helps to attract more attention of potential customers.

Teaser advertisement

This is a small image and small text that briefly introduces the product. "Teaser" means getting attention. Its main tricks are tantalizing headlines and bright, catchy images that can arouse the user's curiosity and encourage them to visit the site.

To make this advertisement more effective, it is better to use the services of teaser networks. This is a network of affiliate sites where you can post your ads and make money on it. They have a wide and flexible range of settings for choosing a target audience or geo-targeting. Here are examples of some effective types of teaser networks: Kadam.ru, Direct / ADVERT, Visitweb.com, RedClick.ru, TeaserNet.com.

Such effective types of modern advertising, as teaser ads, depend on the originality of the chosen approach - it should distinguish you from the already annoying and annoying usual promotional campaigns. But if there is no individuality, the result can be an effect completely opposite to expectations.

Advertising in thematic blogs

These are reviews and messages on forums, blogs, websites. They are addressed to a specific user. If a person decides to purchase a certain type of product, then when searching on the Internet, he pays attention to reviews about it purchased from a specific manufacturer. Based on these responses, under which the advertisement is disguised, the client makes his choice. He believes that since people use a product, it means that it is good and of high quality.

• Banner, display advertising, presented in the form of an image, which should be very original and be remembered by the visitor for a long time. In order for a person to follow the link to the manufacturer's website, the banner must look the most non-standard and eye-catching. Perhaps this type of promotion will be annoying, but the effectiveness and efficiency here is much higher than that of traditional methods.
• PPC advertising helps to increase sales. It is used in conjunction with banner and text and is demonstrated only if there is interest in the product.
• Text ads describe products through a text ad. Remembered thanks to the laconic slogan.

Advertising on thematic sites

This is an effective form of advertising in which different sites act as a place to place your ads. They can be presented in the form of text, animation, or graphic banner. The main feature here is that ads and site content should be thematically similar. This type is able to attract a very large number of potential buyers. At the same time, site owners earn good income from advertising. They earn a certain percentage per click, that is, from each click on a link posted on the site to the advertiser's portal. Some people do not like to search for goods through search engines or may not be aware of the existence of this type of service. Advertising on the site allows these people to decide that they need a specific product. If there are thousands of them, you will get a serious income that stimulates site owners to develop their business.

Social media advertising

This is an opportunity to convey information about products to the target audience through announcements or creating special groups, organizing promotions. Such an effective type of advertising differs in that almost everyone uses social networks, and this gives even greater audience coverage.

1. General social media - the most common type. These are VKontakte and Odnoklassniki for Russia and Facebook and Bebo for the West. Here users can chat, show photos, watch movies and listen to music. Advertising campaigns carried out on such social networks are focused on the target audience. You can also post ads in thematic groups.
2. Professional social networks - these are types of social networks such as the Russian "Moi Krug", "Professionals" and "Rb.ru" and the Western "XING" and "Linkedln". They are aimed at representatives of a particular profession. Here employers are looking for employees and vice versa. Everything is subordinated to working moments: the news of the company, corporate reports, various types of press releases are published in the feed.
3. Social networks by interests... Interests can be of different types: cinema, music, books or modern technology. On their basis, people unite. Russians love MySpace and Last.fm the most. “MyAnimeList” is popular in the West. Here ads should be of a specific theme that suits the needs of the audience.

• Viral marketing Is a type of distribution of information about a product or service, in which people themselves transfer information to each other. The most effective way is to use a video, which is first posted on social networks specializing in video (YouTube, Vimeo, RuTube), or in VKontakte thematic groups, and then the users themselves begin to distribute this video among their friends.
• Guerrilla marketing contributes to the formation of an opinion about a product or service. Potential buyers trust people with personal experience more than advertisements in official sources. Effective guerrilla marketing works like this: a person creates an account on a social network and begins to create an environment for himself, makes acquaintances, and participates in discussions. When trust in him increases, the main actions begin - it is necessary to praise the desired product and scold competitors. You can write posts on your page or in thematic discussions. The main thing is to talk about supposedly your own experience, this method allows you to create trust among readers.
• Articles and publicationsposted on certain social media will be more beneficial than those posted on professional sites. Finding your target audience in social networks is much easier. It makes no sense to publish an article about the release of a new book or film on highly specialized sites devoted to literature or cinema. The best result from such a publication will be achieved when it is posted in the Vkontakte thematic group, where the number of subscribers exceeds a million.

Advertising on social networks addresses directly the target audience, since it allows you to customize targeting based on various criteria: location, gender, age, occupation, interests. This is its undoubted advantage.

Advertising on news portals

It can be present in the form of PR articles (articles with a veiled advertising message), content advertisements (text blocks with similar topics), or regular banners (pop-up blocks). Such an effective form of advertising is placed on specialized news sites and helps to attract the attention of a large circle of people who are used to tracking the latest events on these portals. A wide audience coverage is formed due to the fact that news appears every hour. Both managers and ordinary people who need to be aware of the situation in the world of politics and economics or in the field of culture visit news portals several times a day. They share the information they are most interested in with friends or publish links to specific news in their social media profiles, attracting even more attention to the resource. And they all see advertising information on this page. By clicking on a banner or text, potential customers go to the advertiser's website and, if they are interested in a product or service, make a purchase, which means that the advertisement has paid off.

Some entrepreneurs, as well as their managers, do not like direct advertising because it will not bring enough profit. They believe that the most effective form of modern advertising is articles in various media. But it is rather difficult to write a good article in which the advertising component is not obvious. Therefore, it is better to compose press releases. This is a small text, the main function of which is the presentation of a new product or service, an announcement of an event in the life of a company or an invitation to an event. Such articles come out less expensive than ordinary ones due to their brevity and brevity. And they convey information to the audience in a more concrete and effective form.

Search engine optimization (SEO)

This is a special type of content preparation, designed to be the very first to display information about a site when requested in any search engine. That is, if a person enters a word or phrase into the search, then the same words must be present in a certain way in the texts on the site, so that he appears among those found one of the first. Indeed, often a visitor looking for information or a product on the Internet does not go further than the initial page with a list of possible resources that the search engine gives out. Therefore, it is extremely important to be at the top of the sheet to get more visits.

Effective optimization options:

• White optimization... It includes all types of optimization that do not contradict the rules of search engines. This means the correct composition of the content of the site itself, its internal content, as well as actions outside of it: the dissemination of information on other sites, the publication of press releases and articles, the use of the possibilities of social networks and partner programs. In this case, a link to the resource is always indicated, by clicking on which the visitor gets to the optimized site.
• Gray optimization... This type of work involves the use of key phrases in the texts. Sometimes they violate the laws of the Russian language: "Milk is a dairy product containing milk fats." For the optimizer to work more efficiently, it must go through several stages. First, the most frequent queries in search engines for a specific category of goods are identified. The most frequently used words are selected from the received words, and key phrases are composed on their basis. Then it is determined how many such phrases should be reflected in the text, as well as their density, the number of exact occurrences and with possible morphological and grammatical changes. Based on these data, an article is being written, which will be published on the site.
• Black optimization... This includes all types and methods of site promotion that affect the algorithms of the search engines. The following options are possible: using on the page texts with a large number of effective key queries (doorways), placing hidden text, using "single-pixel links", using cloaking techniques. This is a kind of optimization, when the user is shown one page, and another is created for the search robot.

Email newsletter

Sending emails containing information about new products, services, events or any other information that needs to be conveyed as quickly as possible to subscribers and target audience. The main advantages of this type are fast notification, maximum audience coverage at minimum cost. Regular mailing is the most effective type of advertising in terms of creating a positive reputation of the company among potential customers, confirming its reliability and guaranteeing the production of quality products.

The most effective types of outdoor advertising

What effective types of advertising exist today? To answer this question, let us examine another type of advertising, which does not require large investments and has long established itself as a completely effective way to convey information about a product or service to the consumer. This type is outdoor advertising. It includes all types of promotion that are used on the streets of the city, that is, everything that any passer-by on the street or a person standing in a traffic jam can see. This method is aimed at the widest coverage of consumers and does not cost very much money.

The purpose of outdoor advertising is to remind about an existing product or tell about the location of an organization so that a person can easily find it. In the design, it is better to use an attention-grabbing picture and a laconic effective description. It is not recommended to place a more serious type of information in this way: a person is unlikely to perceive it correctly on the run. This feature can narrow the range of advertisers.

Important points for effective outdoor advertising are the correct use of design in the content design (so that it is easy to read and quickly perceived), as well as the choice of a suitable place for placement (so that it attracts the eyes of passers-by and is noticeable).

1. Shields. Surely everyone saw the pillars with shields familiar to us, located near the sidewalks and roads for cars. This type of promotion attracts attention, but it is important to understand that small inscriptions are not visible. You will achieve the expected result by writing the most important text in large letters and as simply as possible. It is also better to place information on several billboards so that a potential buyer will accurately draw attention to it. An important message should be placed on the working side of the shield, that is, facing the flow of people. The image on the other side will not be as effective as few people will turn around to read it.
2. Stretch marks. This is a kind of canvas stretched over the carriageway. They are easier to perceive due to the longer contact. Addresses and telephones that the viewer will not see on the billboards will be quite effective here.
3. Pointers. They are designed to guide the buyer in which direction the company or store is located. They are made in the form of arrows indicating the direction, therefore, they will not let your client get lost.
4. Signboard. This is a small billboard with the name of an office or store, located in front of the entrance to the building. It can attract attention from afar if you use a bright design in your decoration.
5. Pavement signs. These are folding structures on which the name of the company, its coordinates and the services provided are written. Usually they are located next to the building where the company is located.
6. Sandwich people. This is the name given to promoters handing out flyers or announcing something into a microphone. To attract attention, they dress up in colorful clothes, costumes of animals, cartoon characters or hog dogs.
7. Pneumatic figures. These are voluminous inflatable figures of various sizes that attract attention with their uniqueness.
8. Sticky application. This includes stickers, posters pasted on street poles, in entrances, in the subway and electric trains, on the walls of houses.
9. Urban constructions. Here we will list the booths and pedestals within the city limits on which advertisements are placed. The most efficient type is stops.
10. Advertising on and in public transport can be on the bus, metro, tram, trolleybus, electric trains and trains. This also includes advertising on taxi cars.
11. Advertising in elevators. This type is very informative and effective, because while a person travels to the desired floor, he has time to read all the information posted on the walls.

You need to understand what type of outdoor advertising you want to use, and, based on this, come up with a message text. If this is a type of "moving" advertisement, that is, which people quickly pass by, then the text will be catchy and large, containing only basic information. If it is a form of "static" advertisement on trains or elevators, where people have more time to read, then more information can be written.

It is better to use the full range of design techniques (look, font, size, fill) to make your information easier to read. The result depends on the number of people passing by. The cost varies from location, material, size, type. You can choose a not very expensive option that meets your goals.

The most effective types of modern advertising on TV and radio

Radio and television today are an integral part of every person's life. Television is now used as the main way of delivering information to the consumer. Since there is a TV in every home, advertising placed on TV, one way or another, reaches everyone. Therefore, it is the most expensive. And the point here is not only the price for the video, for the recording of which a large number of professionals are involved: actors, screenwriters, directors, editors and advertisers. Most of the money will have to be paid for airtime, which is very expensive. Therefore, only large brands can appear on federal TV channels. Smaller businesses are encouraged to use local or cable services. At the same time, do not forget about the region where your information is distributed. A product distributed only in Moscow will not be sold if it is advertised in Samara.

Videos. This is the main form of effective television advertising. Its average duration ranges from 15 to 30 seconds. Viewers will better perceive the original and colorful picture, because during the existence of television, everyone is already tired of primitive videos and switches the channel for the duration of the commercial break. Therefore, to record the most catchy plot, it is better to turn to professionals. Indeed, in the opposite case, the money spent will be simply thrown to the wind.

Ticker. Scrolling ads at the bottom of the screen, few people read and remember. But it is cheaper than shooting videos.

TV shops. This is the name of the type of special programs where products are demonstrated, and the presenters talk about their advantages, while showing them in action. A purchase can be made by calling.

Sponsorship. Becoming a sponsor of a program or screening of a film means creating a positive image for your company. Small businesses cannot afford such activities on central television, but on a local channel it will be much cheaper.

Effective television advertising is determined by the timing of its airing. In prime time, the largest number of viewers turn on the TV, and then she should appear. The most efficient hours are: in the morning from 07.00 to 07.45 and from 09.15 to 10.15 and in the evening from 20.30 to 21.30.

An important component is the plot of the program or film, during which your video is shown. Negative emotions from viewing can be associated with the advertisement seen at this moment.

A large number of videos can be shown in one block. The first and the last are best remembered by the audience.

Airtime on federal television is being sold out rather quickly. Everything is already sold out a year ahead, so you need to think about placement in advance.

Musical screensaver. This is such an effective form of radio advertising, in which the text is better remembered, as it is presented in rhymed form and accompanied by music. Musical arrangement contributes to a better perception of information due to the ease of presentation and conciseness of the text. For example, on New Year's Eve, everyone walks singing a song from a Coca-Cola advertisement: “The holiday always comes to us with Coca-Cola.

As in the case of television, more people listen to radio commercials in the morning when they go to work and in the evening when they return home. A better result can be achieved by submitting an ad to several radio stations and paying for the maximum number of repeats. Advertising will constantly sound on different waves and at different times, which over time will lead to the memorization of this brand of goods. This can facilitate the selection of your products over competitors.

Most effective types of advertising at all times

1) Business cards - an effective type of self-promotion, a way to present information about yourself and post your contact information. A business card is a sign of mutually beneficial business communication. The exchange of them begins the establishment of ties and partnerships. In any company, all employees have their own cards, which contain the name of the company, information about a specific employee: full name, position and contact information. This is not only information, but also a type of advertising for the company.

Technologies used in production

• Silkscreen method;
• Foil stamping technique;
• Thermal rise;
• Risography.

2) BrochuresAre small books containing information about a product or company. The brochures use text and photographs to describe and depict the advertised product. For prospectus printing we use high quality paper with all kinds of finishes - it is very important that your products are pleasant to hold in your hands and you want to look through them. To achieve the desired result, high-quality, pleasant to the touch materials and eye-catching bright pictures and texts with beautiful and contrasting fonts are used.

3) Forms - an effective form of advertising. In the modern world, all reputable companies use letterheads with their logos for documents. It lends a sense of reliability to the company as a business partner and sets its papers apart from others on the clients' desks. Such sheets determine the importance of what is printed on them. This is a big plus for the company, so any organization needs such help. A company that uses letterhead to print its documents is always treated favorably and more respectfully than other companies that have not yet realized the full benefits of this effective form of modern advertising.

Letterheads reflect more than just contact information. A properly developed design gives an idea of \u200b\u200bthe organization's activities, its life credo, contributes to recognition and the formation of a good reputation among the audience. Visual impression helps in solving many problems that cannot be resolved over the phone. The use of layout, graphic elements of corporate identity, color and font, convenient presentation of information, selection of special types of paper - all this has a positive effect on the image of the company.

The letterhead contains such types of information as logo, address and other contact details. Better to come up with its design in accordance with the overall corporate identity, because harmony in all the details will lead to the best business results. But if the latter already exists, then the form can be modified separately.

Letterheads are required for internal and external use. In the company, you can issue orders on them, draw up accounting reports, and conduct internal corporate correspondence. When communicating with clients on letterheads, you can draw up contracts and commercial offers, price lists, and poison business letters.

4) Envelopes are another effective form of advertising. In the era of virtual communication, e-mail correspondence and skype negotiations, receiving a paper letter in a company envelope will become an unforgettable experience, and respect and trust in your company will increase.

Envelopes are of the following types and sizes:

• Standard Euro envelopes E65 (110x220mm) with and without a window (used for sending business letters and letterhead folded in three);
• C5 (165x229mm, non-standard postcards or cards, as well as A4 sheet folded in half);
• С4 (229х324mm) with top and side flaps (business correspondence, magazines, brochures, brochures).

It is important to consider the fact that envelopes can be manufactured or sealed. Custom production has a number of advantages: selection of any size and type of paper, its shade and other characteristics. The only drawback is that the circulation must exceed 5 thousand copies, which is not always necessary. Products made in Russia will be an order of magnitude lower in quality than those made in Europe. However, the order in the latter is carried out only with large circulations. If you need a small amount, then it is better to use ready-made factory envelopes. Printing them will be cheaper, but the choice of material and paper will be limited.

5) Folders - a type of printing industry that has practical application. The corporate logo on them is one of the types of the most effective advertising of the company, which will constantly work for you. After all, folders can store important documents, and each time you open your logo, your logo will catch your eye, and this is a constant reminder to customers and.

Folders are of the following types:

• Die cut folders with one or two valves;
• Folders with one or two glue flaps;
• Plastic folders-files;
• Clip folders;
• Bookkeeping folders of the "Crown" type with a lock clip;
• Plastic folders with ring clips;
• Leather executive folders with embossed logo.

Cardboard folders can be decorated with lamination, offset printing, foil or hot stamping, offset or UV varnishing, silk-screen printing. Foil stamping, silk screen printing and pad printing are used for marking plastic products.

The corporate folder presents the company as a solid and respectable organization. Therefore, visually, it must match - you should not be ashamed to come to a business meeting with it. Therefore, only contact information and the company logo should be applied.

6) Notepad... The main purpose of the notebook is to effectively advertise the company whose logo is printed on the cover. In this case, the appearance of the notebook does not play a big role: it can be a small checkered notebook or a solid book with a leather cover.

7) Flyers - one of the most effective types of advertising. It can be used to judge the quality of the goods. It should contain an interesting design, be varnished and executed on high-quality Finnish paper, and then your company will not go unnoticed.

The three main components of the flyer: a picture, a text describing the product and contact information with the company logo. When advertising technical products, diagrams and graphs are drawn up for greater clarity.

Any advertising product should stimulate the consumer to take certain actions. Depending on the specific purpose, the leaflet can have a special design, made in color or black and white style, be printed on various types of paper of any size, contain a list of prices or just tell about the advantages of the product.

8) Booklets - this is a type of effective advertising printing, which achieves high information content at a low price.

They are available in A4 format (210 x 297 mm) with two folds and A3 (297 x 420 mm) with one fold.

Booklets can be produced by:

• Lamination;
• Lamination;
• Full or selective UV varnishing;
• Embossing;
• Embossing or covering with offset varnish.

The three main components of the brochure are the same as those of the flyer: a picture, a text describing the goods and contact information with the company logo. When advertising technical products, visual diagrams and graphs are also drawn up.

9) Poster... Posters are placed on information boards and are used to grab the attention of the audience. They can be agitational, informational or supporting the image.

In the manufacture of this type of advertising products, four paints are used, lamination or varnishing. Lamination gives an advantage over rain, therefore it is more expensive. Cold lamination is used for large format posters. Films for her can be expensive, but will not spoil the images. If you need a large circulation, the best way to save money is to cover with offset varnish when printing.

For a better result, posters (posters glued to a corrugated cardboard base by laminating) and model models (large-format posters glued to a rigid cardboard base and cut along the contour) can be placed at points of sale.

10) Brochures - this is such an effective type of advertising printing, which is an excellent solution if you need to make a presentation of a product or arrange a large amount of information.

Preparing a brochure is an important and serious business. You need to know exactly what the goals of the release are. Consider effective design in line with the content. Embossed cardboard for the cover, tracing paper inserts or the use of a complementary color will all add to the look of the product. To add originality, you can order the pocket version or with horizontal stripes.

11) Covers... The corporate logo on the cover is one of the most effective types of company advertising that will constantly work for you.

12) Calendars... What type of advertising is the most effective among printing products? The answer is obvious - this is the calendar, the most popular and effective type of advertising printing. Use it not only as a stationery, but also as a platform for your own promotion, which does not require high costs, but benefits in different places throughout the year.

The origin of the word "calendar" goes back to the Latin "calendae", that is, calendars. The first days of each month were called Calendars in ancient Rome. And the word "calendarium" was used to describe a type of debt book, where every month records were made about debts paid on the first day. The modern meaning of the word as a system of reporting days, months and years appeared much later.

The popularity of calendars is growing every year. This is the most convenient way to establish your company among clients. It would be strange not to use a practical object as a business gift. Every entrepreneur gives it to his partners and clients. But now these paper products have become so diverse that you have to work hard to make the calendar with your company logo stand out, and it is he who would like to use as a working tool. For this to happen, a professional design must be used, because numerous potential customers can see the product on the top manager's desktop. You can be original and order not an ordinary, standard type of calendar, but, for example, a specialized one: accounting, lunar or with important dates.

The main advantages of this effective type of advertising printing are the possibility of its practical application in combination with the undoubted potential for expanding your audience. Its lifespan is much longer than that of other types of print advertising. It will always be visible, unlike various types of flyers, booklets or brochures, which can only be used once.

If your company has decided to participate in promotions, then nothing will bring you better results than using pocket calendars. They are perfect for advertising small products such as cosmetics, perfumes, sneakers, phones or tablets, and various types of alcohol. Making pocket calendars with medium runs will not be too expensive. It is not recommended to order less than 5,000 copies. Believe me, they will understand with a bang.

The second type of economical and efficient calendars is poster calendars. They are similar to posters, only they have a calendar grid. Produced for distribution at points of sale. The A2 basic format is produced by large format printing. The A3 poster will turn out to be too small to be hung not on the wall, and A1 is more expensive.

There can be a great variety of calendar design options. It can be made according to your wishes. Price and terms depend on the complexity of the order.

For small businesses, advertising is of great importance in the early stages. A well-designed campaign in this area will help you get your first customers and start earning. It is also of great importance in later stages. The audience should at least convey information about new promotions and offers. At the same time, the business will not refuse to expand the customer base at any stage of its development. What is the most effective ad? It is difficult to answer this question without considering a specific situation, but we can still give some assessment.

Offline advertising methods for small businesses

At first, a novice businessman is forced to face a lot of difficulties. While a small number of people are aware of its products or services, and suppliers and potential customers do not even know about your existence, it is impossible to talk about any kind of business.

The correct organization of the advertising strategy helps a lot at the initial stage. You shouldn't choose expensive advertising methods if your budget is tight. It's better to offer a better service (product) so that people start talking about your business and spread word of mouth. The advertising campaign itself should be selected taking into account the specifics of a particular business, because otherwise it will have to be carried out unscheduled.

Telephone Marketing

The very concept of telephone marketing implies making calls to contact the widest possible audience of potential customers of the enterprise. Whether it is private or legal, it depends on the specifics of the business. The key goal is to inform that you can get certain goods or services.

It is not so difficult for skilled "telephone salesmen" to even make a deal on the first call. You can get positive results with some communication skills. For entrepreneurs who are not confident in their abilities, a good solution would be to hire a special employee who will conduct calls through the base of numbers. At the same time, the negative point is that the interlocutor may not have free time for communication, or he may not be at all interested in your proposal.

Distribution of leaflets

This method is quite well known and is actively used to this day. The distribution of leaflets can be effectively dealt with by negotiating with the supermarket management. In such cases, at the checkout, the buyer is offered a flyer on which your proposal is presented. Printing flyers is a relatively cheap advertising method, however, conversion rates are usually not very high. Handing out flyers is a great method to inform your audience early on.

Street consultants can be hired to not only hand out brochures to potential clients, but also answer a few simple questions. When using leaflets, it is important that they are made with high quality, since for an uninformed person they will become the “face of the enterprise”. The content should be concise, but capacious - you need to clearly convey the essence of your activity.

Advertising lettering on asphalt

This type of information dissemination is relatively new for Russia. Writing on the pavement is a creative move, but not for everyone. At the preliminary stage, it is extremely important to understand exactly where your potential customers are "concentrated". Sometimes placed labels do not have an effect simply because:

• they are not visible due to the large number of people;
• potential customers do not use the route on which the inscription is placed;
• it was worn out by rainfall and walking people;
• it is forbidden to place in specific places.

At the same time, high-quality, bright advertising on asphalt for a number of business areas can be an excellent tool to arouse consumer interest. For example, advertising will look great on the roads to preschool educational institutions.

Outdoor advertising on the streets

These include all kinds of signs, banners, billboards, signs on the walls of buildings, plaques, advertising structures, car stickers and much more. They can be decorated with or without LED illumination, in volume or flat, etc. Almost every business that has its own retail space uses this type of advertising in one form or another. It is important to understand that if you can make a sign over the entrance to the store without big expenses, then placing your advertising banner on the billboards of the city will often be expensive. Among the advantages of outdoor advertising, one can single out a large coverage and a rapid increase in awareness.

Among the disadvantages is the high cost, which is quite a big disadvantage for starting a business. Difficulty of competing - many people use such approaches, which requires a lot of creativity to attract the attention of a potential client. Contact is usually pretty quick, so your offer may simply not be remembered.

The most effective online advertising

Advertising of their business on the Internet for most entrepreneurs today is almost an obligatory item of expenditure. Its simplest direction is to create your own website, which will attract visitors. The web site itself can serve both for informational purposes and directly become an additional (or even the main) "trading floor" of your enterprise. It all depends on the specifics of your proposal. You can place all the necessary information about your own business on your Internet resource. Today it is a fairly cheap product, especially when it comes to an online business card.

You can attract visitors to your site using different methods that differ in both cost and efficiency, but we'll talk about this below. Social networks have become an important aspect today. Will it be a public page, the use of advertising in other people's communities or personal accounts to attract to an online platform or directly to a store (office)? In each case, you need to come up with your own solution. Statistics show that the cost of attracting one customer on the Internet is one or several orders of magnitude lower than when using offline methods.

Online advertising tools often need to be combined for maximum results. Sometimes it happens that one of the methods shows low conversion, but if you abandon it, the level of efficiency of the other method also drops. Such things are difficult to predict, and can only be noticed in practice. The main positive side of advertising on the Internet is its speed of distribution. It may not take long between launching an ad campaign and getting the first client.

contextual advertising

The fastest and most effective method of advertising on the Internet. Its main problem is the difficulty in setting up for unskilled professionals. For this reason, you will need to contact a special agency that will conduct the advertising campaign. Fortunately, these services are widely available today, so they are cheaper than hiring a separate staff of "advertisers".

The advantage of contextual advertising is its clear adjustment for specific user requests in search engines, which allows you to select the target audience as accurately as possible. This is used by online stores when attracting customers for certain popular units of a product or product group. This is a fairly versatile tool that, if properly configured, will start to bear fruit very quickly.

SEO promotion

This is a "long-term" method. Search engine optimization allows you to get clients for free when they search for something on the net. It should be understood that getting to the first page will take a lot of effort, since almost every niche already has a whole host of competitors. At the same time, not using SEO is definitely a bad option, since this method includes a number of engineering works on the site and its comprehensive improvement. The best time to start working on search engine optimization is the stage of developing your site. This will avoid a number of mistakes in advance. The main advantage of SEO is the free transition of the target user to the resource, while in contextual advertising you have to pay for each click.

Free classifieds boards

This is a rather controversial tool in many ways. The main problems with its use are the high level of competition and low user confidence in the offers from the very beginning. Another aspect is that against the background of the increase in the number of offers in recent years, the number of those who come in search of purchases is increasing more slowly. The good news is the versatility of such sites - they can offer both goods and services. It is worth focusing on the most visited message boards - their use will definitely not be superfluous.

Public pages in social networks

VKontakte remains the largest social network of the Russian Internet. This site offers the opportunity to create targeted ads and retargeting (reaching out to people who have previously become interested in your ad). This is an effective and fairly cheap tool that many advertising agencies are actively using today. Similar tools are available in other social networks, but it is much more promising to start working with this platform, since it has the widest audience and traffic.

Advertising can be purchased both in groups whose members can potentially become customers of your business, and order its placement in the user's news feed. Not every company will find this type of advertising useful, but those who offer products can find buyers here, and the created group can be used as a feedback board about your services. The most common problem when using this advertising tool is choosing the right groups. If you choose the wrong place for advertising, you can simply waste money. Is a separate question, so we will not dwell on it in detail here.

For each business, the "best advertisement" will be different, and it is impossible to provide uniform statistical indicators in this case. In conditions of a tight budget, you will have to choose “which is cheaper” and work out the strategy of attracting customers as clearly as possible. It is desirable to try the widest possible range of tools in order to evaluate what is most effective for your case.

The most effective service advertising

When asked which service advertising is the most effective, the answer is unequivocal - high-quality execution. Of course, you shouldn't rely solely on word of mouth, but it's important to understand that reviews are extremely important in this case. There are specialized sites where people share their impressions of certain enterprises in a particular field. Statistics show that more than half of consumers, when faced with information about a new seller (service provider), are looking for more information and feedback. If acquaintances cannot suggest anything, then they ask questions on the Internet.

It is important to monitor such network resources and promptly respond to complaints expressed. This will allow not only to clarify that you have already solved any existing problems, but also to disclose custom publications left by ill-wishers. You need to collect testimonials in text and video format from customers on your website. Instead, it is better to offer a discount - the client will come back again to take advantage of it. Such a solution must be implemented to increase customer confidence, but it alone will not be enough.

At the initial stage of work, while there are not many or no clients at all, it is necessary to use active advertising methods. If your business involves the provision of services in the same city, flyers and outdoor advertising will be the most effective methods. For those who provide consulting, accounting and other services that can be provided remotely, it is better to resort to contextual advertising and search for clients in social networks.

What is the most effective ad? How necessary is it in small and large businesses? These and other questions arise for everyone who starts doing business and is faced with the fact that in order to increase sales and promote their own product, they need to talk about their business.

Types of advertising

Today you can submit information about your activities in completely different ways. Before you start promoting an enterprise, you need to familiarize yourself with the types of existing advertising and choose the most suitable one for yourself. This is required in order to understand what is the most effective advertisement for a construction company, for example.

Most of the news messages we see are commercial advertisements aimed at attracting customers, also social and political.

• outdoor - presented in the form of billboards, posters on public transport, signboards, signs, etc.;
• through the media - television, radio, newspapers and magazines;
• internet banner, social networks, contextual advertising, hyperlinks.

The role of advertising in business

Advertising is not just a luxury. This tool is necessary for every entrepreneur to disseminate information about himself to the target audience and promote his name in the rating of enterprises. This will help present you as a reliable, solvent and responsible company.

When using competent marketing, you can easily answer which advertising is the most effective for your business, and in addition create a positive image, emphasize dignity and form a loyalty to the company.

It should not be assumed that small businesses do not need advertising, that only word of mouth works here. This is not true. Advertising in any case helps to tell potential buyers about the company, to promote the product of this company to the market.

It is important to choose the type that will not affect the budget too much, but at the same time will help to promote and increase awareness.

Small business: how to advertise it

A small business, like a large one, requires advertising, which should not be discarded, even if there is no extra money. You should know: the decisive period in the development of any activity is the first 2 years, when the initial acquaintance, habituation and recognition occurs. During this period, the promotion should be as intense and intense as possible.

Before deciding on a way to promote an enterprise, it is worthwhile to study the information as much as possible on the question: which advertising is the most effective? Statistics is a convincing thing and, with the help of specific data, will help to determine this choice.

It is important to focus on specific offers and stop using formulaic words such as “cheap”, “fast”, “with a guarantee”, “profitable”, etc. If once such methods worked well for potential buyers, now it is does not attract, but even repels. People need specific numbers, an understanding of what they will pay for.

Methods to increase sales

There are several methods and types of advertising, each of which is aimed at increasing sales and making a profit, but these are not spontaneous actions, but a well-thought-out strategy. Which advertising is the most effective for small businesses can be understood after a while, but the fact that any type obeys a certain structure is a fact:

• problem - if you sell a product or service that can help in solving, then when advertising you can use interrogative sentences: "Tired of waiting for prices to fall?", "Are you tired of paying too much?" etc.;
• solution of the problem - after the question has been asked, you give an answer in advance that it is your company that is able to solve it and on favorable terms;
• the offer is unique - many firms can help, but you must be different from them and offer something that will attract the target audience even more;
• restrictions - people may be interested in your product and service, but at the same time they will think about buying later in order to think about everything thoroughly. It is worth introducing a time or availability limitation so that they go faster for a purchase;
• call - after there is an interest and desire to purchase, the buyer should immediately see where to call, how to order, how to pay.

How to attract a consumer?

What is the most effective ad? Statistics confirm that not every company can afford to talk about itself on television or radio, since it does not have a lot of money. Of course, before placing an advertisement on one or more sources, the owner studies the data showing the most effective ways. But it is worth remembering that for each area of \u200b\u200bbusiness, its own type of promotion and its own indicators are effective.

According to statistical data on the example of plastic windows in the city of Ufa, the cost of one attracted client is very different in different ways. Advertisements were made on radio, newspapers and magazines, outdoor advertisements, referral services and the Internet. The cheapest was promotion on the Internet, where 42 rubles were spent, and the most expensive was on the radio - more than 15 thousand rubles. This suggests that on the Internet, you can set up specific advertising for your client, control the budget and determine the cost of a contact.

Budget Advertising in Small Business

1. Telemarketing - Calls to potential customers can attract buyers, but they can also repel them. Advertising in this way should be competently composed: the text should be short, but succinct and understandable. However, this method is ineffective and can repel people.
2. Sending messages to e-mail addresses and on social networks - this kind takes time, but does not need money. Also ineffective, but some percentage of buyers can attract.
3. Leaflets. This type of advertising, of course, requires certain investments: it is necessary to print the material in a printing house, preferably in color, which will attract more people. This is a recognized marketing tool, but only if it is well-written - good text, bright picture, high-quality paper. It should be distributed on streets where there is a lot of traffic.

How to evaluate effectiveness?

What is the most effective advertising method, how to evaluate it? After this tool is launched, the owner will want to know how the advertising has affected sales, whether it is worth using it in the future or is it better to change something.

There are two dimensions of the effectiveness of advertising: communicative (i.e. how well and accurately the message conveys information to the target audience) and financial. It is worth knowing that this indicator partly depends on the owner, who determines the budget, strategy, parameters, and partly does not, because there are uncontrollable factors: audience characteristics, advertising time, legal requirements.

But the assessment of efficiency depends on the specific situation in the market: how many similar firms are there, what methods have been chosen and why? For small businesses, it is recommended to build promotions using direct click methods, that is, the result should be commensurate: if you launch an advertisement for ten rubles, you get thirty, which means it works. Launched for five rubles - got three, the method does not work and the company goes into the red.

A complex approach

You cannot give the same assessment of the effectiveness of advertising for each business area and use the statistics of the results of one company to analyze another. This method will only waste the budget, but there will be no sense.
