Pro Tips: LinkedIn Shares Advice on How Brands Can Tap Into Rising Engagement on the Platform - Social Media Today

Sydney, Sept. 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- E-Web Marketing, a Sydney-based results-driven, holistic, digital marketing agency, is sharing tips on how to utilize social media and Google Ads and integrating them together to maximize their effectiveness.

E-Web says that a holistic approach to online marketing means utilizing multiple channels and using them in tandem to boost each other, increasing visibility and impact across all of them. To cite a real-world example of the impact that a focused, multi-pronged strategy can bring, NewsCred, one of the worlds leading marketing orchestration platforms, used LinkedIn Sponsored Updates to net a 1600% return on ad spend. The key, according to E-Web, is to treat social media and paid search as if they are two sides of the same coin and then playing to each of their strengths while splitting resources so that they complement each other.

Social media channels can be used as a free A/B testing platform to figure out catchy headlines and taglines that resonate the most with the target audience. Twitter is a great place to gauge engagement and then use the messaging that works best on a more focused social media network such as LinkedIn. Digital marketers can also investigate trending topics that can be personalized to the brands core service. Trending topics can be turned into potentially attractive content that can be the first hook that funnels newer customers in. Marketers have to constantly track ROI and stay cognizant of which demographics are responding to their efforts the most and then fine-tuning the message to appeal to that demographic to maximize ROI. Tools such as Facebook Audience Insights should not be treated as their own bubble and instead, its findings should be leveraged to boost engagement on other platforms.

Another observation that arose from E-Web's social media advertising efforts was that the brand aesthetic should be consistent across marketing channels. This includes the visual assets that are used on each social media profile, the tone of the headlines, and the promise of its core services. Customers should be confident of the brand when they come across it on any of its social media platforms. Any potential disconnects that stray from the brands core message should be eliminated.

PPC advertisements such as Google Ads can be used to hop onto trending topics and contextualizing the trends to match the services that the company is offering. Many major players use this strategy to drastically increase their follower counts that in turn kicks off organic growth on their social channels. Companies can also look for the topics that are of most interest to their target demographic and then make content that explicitly answers the pressing questions of their potential customers. The quality content also has to be supplemented with a call to action that compels readers to share it with others who might find it useful. Companies have to facilitate the sharing of their content by making available social sharing buttons that make it easy to share the content through social media.

PPC advertisements can also be used to supercharge remarketing efforts considering that customers that are already aware of a brands existence are a precious resource that has to be efficiently utilized to get the most ROI for ones marketing efforts. A skilled digital marketer proficient in Google Ads management and Facebook Ads management could display PPC ads to previous visitors and nudge them towards signing up or finding out more about the companys services. Email lists are another useful tool that can be used to create a targeted list of potential clients, including those who the company needs to bring back for repeat business. Remarketing can also be used to bring back customers who may have visited a site such as an eCommerce store and may have quit with an abandoned cart.

Interested customers can find out more about E-Web Marketing and its services by contacting it at the phone number (02) 8413 6409. They offer a range of services such as digital marketing consulting, web & software development, Google Adwords management, social media advertising, content marketing, and email marketing.

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Pleasure Project is pleased to announce the launch of the Pleasure Fellow Scheme. Chosen from countries around the world, the 12 Pleasure Fellows will advocate for sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) and provide expert and diverse outlooks on pleasure which account for different cultures, societies, and geographies. The Fellows hone their skills as pleasure advocates during a series of pleasure training seminars. Once completed, each Fellow receives funding sponsored by The Case for Her, Misscheifs and DKT International to carry out their pleasure-positive missions as newly mentored pleasure champions.

Did your sex education mention the real reason people have sex? Did it get you ready for your sex/relationship life? The most common answer to these questions globally is no. For too long sex education has focused on all the terrible things that might happen to you after sex, like death, danger and disease. However, people are more likely to trust important sexual health information if we also acknowledge the truth: sex can feel good, says Anne Philpott, founder and CEO of The Pleasure Project. In 2004, I noticed a complete absence of pleasure in conversations around sexual and reproductive health, so out of frustration I started The Pleasure Project, advocating for a pleasure-positive approach. Were confident our 12 Pleasure Fellows will make desire and wellbeing central to sex and sexual & reproductive health conversations by creatively spreading the message that pleasure is key throughout the ten countries they hail from including Chile, the Philippines, and Kenya, to name a few. At the Pleasure Project, we are committed to putting the sexy back into safer sex.

Given DKT Internationals history with controversial, pleasure-positive mass media campaigns, like the 2013 DKT Pakistan Josh Condom advertisement, the global organization welcomed the opportunity to support the Pleasure Fellow Program and hosted a session with the Fellows on how to overcome controversy. Both DKT and The Pleasure Project share the belief that pleasurable sex is a human right vs. fear and over-medicalization of sexual health and wellness. In addition, evidence proves that talking about pleasure also allows people to make safer choices in their sex lives and choose what to say yes or no to. In keeping with the World Association for Sexual Healths recent 2021 declaration, sexual pleasure is a central part of the human experience and personal well-being and should exist free from discrimination, coercion, and violence.

DKT is proud to partner with The Pleasure Project in this exciting and important work, says Chris Purdy, CEO of DKT International. To have effective conversations around contraception and safe sex, we must talk with consumers about why they have sex in the first place. No one ever called their partner on Sunday morning to ask about how their reproductive health life was last night. The Pleasure Fellows will help remind the reproductive health community about this truth.

Ultimately, the Pleasure Fellows will bring 12 new global voices and perspectives to a pleasure-positive approach, building upon the growing pleasure wave. For more information, watch the 12 Fellows in action on The Pleasure Project website here: https://thepleasureproject.org/pleasure-fellows/

About DKT International:

Since 1989, DKT Internationals core mission has been to provide safe and affordable options for family planning and HIV prevention through social marketing in underserved countries throughout Latin America, Africa, and Asia.

About The Pleasure Project:

The Pleasure Project is the leading global voice on pleasure based sexual health. Since 2004, The Pleasure Project puts the sexy into safer sex, because sex education is rarely sexy and erotica rarely safe, with the aim of getting sex educators comfortable talking about all aspects of sexual health and to embrace desire, joy, happiness, and pleasure when it comes to sex education.

The Pleasure Project has just been awarded the World Association for Sexual Health Award for Excellence and Innovation in Sexuality Education 2021.

Pleasure Based Sexual Health Definition

A pleasure-based approach is one that celebrates sex, sexuality and the joy and wellbeing that can be derived from these, and creates a vision of good sex built on sexual rights. It focuses on sensory, mental, physical and sensual pleasure to enable individuals to understand, consent to, and gain control over their own bodies and multi-faceted desires. Well-being, safety, pleasure, desire and joy are the objectives of a programme with a pleasure-based approach. This approach measures empowerment, agency, and self-efficacy by whether or not an individual has been enabled to know what they want, and can ask for it, and request this of others, in relation to their sexuality, desires and pleasure.
