common marketing mistakes killing your roi

You’re investing in content and marketing campaigns to push out your message, and even running paid advertisements, yet your bottom line isn’t shifting much. Does this resonate with you?  

Yes, we understand the frustration this brings to many of the more enthusiastic marketers in Bangalore and the surrounding areas. We’ve also grown to understand that several common and fixable mistakes negatively impact ROI. We’re a Performance Marketing focused Digital Marketing Agency and understand the burden.  

So, this is a deep dive to document and highlight the first five common ROI mistakes and their fixes that we hope brings you business success you can start to quantify.  

1. Mistake: Focusing Only on Top-Level Awareness  

You’re doing well with your PPC Advertising and your Social Media Marketing efforts so much so that your website analytics shows an uptick in traffic. However, at the end of the day, the leads aren’t rolling in. This is a result of a lopsided marketing approach where 100% of the efforts are focused on the top of the funnel traffic generation and 0% attention on the processes that come afterwards.To fix the above, build a full funnel strategy. A click is merely the start. Your Website Creation needs to chart a clear set of steps to guide a user to a point of conversion. Be sure to include clear content, calls to action, and lead magnets. Most importantly, entice and convert that interest to qualified leads. Remember, it is not enough to simply get the user to your site. You need to engage and convert them.

2. Mistake: Chasing Vanity Metrics

This is the most discussed issue across digital marketing. While it is nice to have a ten thousand followers or five hundred likes, it is foolish to celebrate these numbers if they bear no impact on the business. In this case, these numbers are empty vanity complements that cloak the digital strategy ineffectiveness.

3. The Fix: Develop a Results Mindset. Your strategy needs to focus on CPL, CAC, and conversion metrics. Revenue is the only appropriate metric of success as it is your most effective digital strategy.

4. Mistake: A Set it and Forget it Mentality

You release a campaign, and then you promptly move on to the next most important item, only to come back to check the campaign performance a whole month later. The digital world is fluid and changes on a daily basis. Strategies and campaigns that are effective today may not work as efficiently three days from now, let alone a month.

• The Fix: Embrace Constant Optimizations. With AI marketing, this becomes a reality. Use AI to monitor marketing campaigns. A/B test anything and everything. Adjust your spending in real-time to favor the more profitable campaigns.

4. Mistake: Not Considering Your Customer’s Journey.

There is a mismatch in your communication flow. It is the same message and tone to a stranger as it is to a potential buyer. This is known as a one-size-fits-all communication. It is an issue particularly in Marketing Real Estate and Marketing Healthcare.

• The Fix: Define the Path and Customize. Build detailed customer avatars. Be aware of their challenges and the questions they will ask in each phase. Design content and follow-up ads in a sequence that encourages the prospect to move from awareness, through consideration, to the decision phase. This will vastly improve Lead Generation.

5. Mistake: Not-In-Depth Technical SEO.

You could own a beautifully designed site and have the best content, but if it is slow, has no mobile version or technical errors, it can never be shown to your audience by Google.

The Fix: Prioritize Technical SEO. Your search engine optimization strategy includes frequent technical audits. Repair broken hyperlinks, enhance your website’s speed, guarantee a seamless mobile interface, and implement structured data. Other marketing activities rely on this foundation.
