Marketing and advertising is an important part of any business. You need to get the word out about your new products and launches. Advertising can help to improve brand awareness and drive-up sales over time. You should be marketing your current and new products consistently to maximise coverage. There are many ways you can approach marketing a product, and some are more effective than others.

Here are a few ways to showcase your new products.

Link It to a Trend

If in doubt, link it to a current trend. You might have seen a few Tik Toks on a subject relating to your industry or an interesting story on the news last night. Find a trend that is resonating with your target market right now and utilise it. You could create a fantastic social media campaign that outs the trend front and centre. Just remember to hashtag it!

Or you could come up with more traditional ways to advertise your brand through print materials and TV ads. Get creative and ask your team for advice on which direction to go in with your new marketing campaign.

Organise a Launch Event

An in-person event can get clients and customers excited about your new launch. You can make the event ‘Instagrammable’ as well by splashing out on the venue and décor. Attendees can get up close and personal with the product and learn more about your brand. You can use an event app to arrange the event and send out tickets to your guest list. You will need to do a lot of planning and preparation to pull off an amazing event.

If you’re not comfortable with an in-person event, hold a virtual event to get the word out about your product. Virtual events are more affordable and don’t require as much planning as hiring venues, food, drink and décor.

Work with Influencers

Influencer marketing has exploded in popularity over the last few years. Influencers can promote your products and encourage their huge audience to invest in them. Influencer marketing needs to fit into your budget, and smaller organisations may not be able to afford the most popular influencers. However, there are plenty of influencers online, and you can get a feel for the cost by contacting a few agencies.

Trade Shows and Conventions

Conventions are a great place to launch a brand new product in the industry. You will have to pay for the convention, but you can get an idea of the initial response to your launch. Your business network can share feedback, and you can get a better idea of the competitor’s recent launches.  You can also hire a brand ambassador agency that can help you amplify your brand and engage with consumers.

Use SEO

SEO utilisation is incredibly important in the digital age. You need to use keywords in the product descriptions and maximise your digital marketing potential.

Combine a few marketing strategies to get your brand new products out there.
