Thank you that makes alot of sense, think I need to re-think all of this and decide.
But no thank you everyone for the comments and thanks for being abrupt. I need this kind of direction to better myself and it's helped alot- this is clearly why the business isn't making any sales.
In terms of...
I looked into when I started if you do an affilate link you earn commission only very small and they don't work very often as you have bigger and better sites..a key example is this site here- megadeals which is run by a guy I spoke to who bought the whitelabel affilate site for £300..in 2 years...
thanks guys some great feedback. I'm taking it all in..going to start working on a marketing plan and thanks Chris that makes sense..i need to think of a way to target those companies
Hi thanks for the feedback in terms of franchises my mum wanted me to do that route originally the start up costs are about 15k+ they take 20% every month of what you earn and if you don't earn above 1000% for them to take 20% they want 1000 a month regardless..for me this is too expensive and...
Wow this thread has blown me away..I need to find out what my target audience wants and tailer my travel products around them..hmm how to find out what they want is the question I guess! Thank you
nbound marketing wise- I have thought about googl e ad words with someone of expertise as per the above, I also have got someone on board to manage my social media who are a professional company..I want to also run a fb and insta click campaign
I have also got some outbound and in bound marketing straegies in mind - the outbound being direct m ail campaigns with Royal Ma il, leaflets in local community shops and I have even thought to go door to door myself and put flyers through.
I now however had come to the conclusion that it would take me 6-8 months to save a reasonable marketing budget and my worry as I said above is that I am drawing customers to my page which they may feel is difficult/they bounce off?
Right I see that makes sense, well the company I was going to use was going to target specific local region for me and specific keywords they researched. The company I was looking at using i wont name but they have said they will manage the whole google ad words campaign for me..
I told them I...
So if you were me what would you do next..apologies I took it as the site is so poor that i need to work on that to fix it.
I've got a good google SEO company I plan to work with, but my worry was paying them to do SEO if the site is poor and difficult as you say.
I've used TAWK to track...
Hey thanks for all the feedback and help guys.
I've taken it on board and decided i'm going to not spend anymore money on anything marketing wise.
I think your all right and the useability of the search engines is difficult..I am going to speak to my IT developer and see if theres a way we can...
So I offically lauched my business after 2 years of hard work..first of all I had to get a ATOL, formulated company then I had to build a rapport with suppliers..then the nightmare of finding a developer. I eventually did get the whole dream done and my website (realdealholidays.com) launched...
i used your site and it wasnt good..put a budget £50 in and tried to change my ad and it kept failing to let me edit it..contact support and no one bothered to reply..rubbish service
my local ones does but the point on if people look at them is a good one..roughly ive been quoted 300 quid a year to advertise at my local one..am trying to get my business more known you see..
just as i have my own business, a travel agency specifically and am liasing with my local post offices to advertise on their digiital screens and i just wondered if it is worth it..
