The new wave of online marketing techniques for appreciation is here. Marketing online has risen to the highest level since the internet was created but do we appreciate our customers as much as we should to offer them a route to happy shopping? My guess is we try but do we have to maintain our businesses to work for customers to create a great customer service and shopping experience? Our customers are second to none in what we are trying to achieve but do we really care as much as we should?.
In this article, I’m going to cover the true facts that materialise when we talk about customer satisfaction when they purchase from us. Can we do better, improve what we set out to accomplish to be excellent businesses that care about our clients, customers and readers of our web site’s content or are we forgetting to show the appreciation our customers deserve?
Cause Marketing & Affiliate Strategies
let me begin today’s post and talk about Cause Marketing and how it revolves around creating a good rapport for a business to become well established on the internet. It takes a lot of work and thought to create trust. As our businesses develop we should be gaining trust as much as we can to have customers return.
A simple birthday congratulation message for some people is an amazing feeling and shows a business knows how to greet for times of celebration. Some customers may never get a card so a business that sends one is likely to be honoured and the customer is likely to buy again from your website. It’s the small things like this that amount to customer satisfaction.
Customer Requirements & Appreciation
Also, by creating a survey asking customers about their requirements and how we can improve our service accounts to an overall appreciation from them and we learn about customers shopping habits. Asking questions about possible product improvements helps us choose better when we add our affiliate products for customer requirements.
Even if we don’t sell a new product as an affiliate marketer we are under no stress from merchants to do so. It’s all about creating a great online atmosphere to accomplish our sales through customer satisfaction just in case a customer does wish to buy a specific product then it’s available to them. Testing the water with various products and what sells can help us achieve far more.
Cause marketing could mean been involved with a non-profit organisation such as a charity which shows how much you care and how you are able to assist where you can with your own success to help others.
Placing non-profit adds for charities is a great way to start. The possible benefits of cause marketing for businesses include positive public relations, improved customer services and satisfaction, and additional marketing opportunities.
The Strategy for Using Cause Marketing & Techniques for Appreciation
The strategy for using cause marketing is a tactical procedure to eliminate the fact you are an entrepreneur that is only concerned about making a quick dollar without consideration for others that may need help as a charitable cause. This initiative to proceed with a helping hand makes all the difference and is an action that could place your website further up the ranking of Google, Bing and Yahoo.
My brother builds websites for his clients and has always mentioned that they should at least have one charity or non-profit organisation promoted on the websites he creates. It’s about building a rapport with a community. I’m sure you know these days most businesses have a Facebook page that is a great way to promote at least one charity on your page. Remember every little bit counts for a charity to work well.
Growth Hacking & Business Acknowledgement
A growth hacker is someone who uses creative, low-cost strategies to help businesses acquire and retain customers. Sometimes growth hackers are also called growth marketers, but growth hackers are not simply marketers they jump on ways to grow through fast development of their businesses.
Here’s how a company can get started with growth hacking. First of all, create your product and test it to make sure people want to purchase it. This will help you gather data so you understand your key buyer personas and can target growth marketing tactics accordingly.
Growth Hacking & Gaining Momentum
Growth Hacking generally means getting somewhere as fast as possible without spending too much money. I learned most of my new skills through hacking into SEO and learning about how to write posts, reviews and blogs that cost nothing. It’s all about finding a means to succeed without spending out and ending up broke.
If you’re willing to proceed into a career such as an affiliate marketing expert, chances are you’ll have to learn a whole bunch of stuff to find success and growth hacking is one of them.
It might sound like a malicious phrase but it means nothing more than cutting corners to get somewhere fast. A growth hacker works across various areas of a business- the marketing funnel, sales segments, product development, etc in order to maximize the growth of a business.
If you imagine a business that is automated and monetised to run its self then you’ll learn a lot from us at Wealthy Affiliate. We are really good at creating businesses that run themselves once they are set up.
Affiliate Networking Events
Networking events establish a commitment to gain progress in meeting new people across the board. Like this website Freedom to Roam Marketing, it’s progress comes from developing interest for others almost like a network or community.
In various communities, I like to promote my website by helping others create goals in the community. It’s better to become a card collector rather than a card giver. it’s far better to be yourself, enjoy what you are doing and search for total commitment to succeed. By helping others in a network you more likely to make more friends, advertise your website better and improve your business.
Don’t forget to subscribe to get your free website, a free affiliate marketing eBook about the Fiver Offer Funnel and much more.
Check online networking sites. A number of websites help find or initiate networking events and use social media platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn to let members create events and generate invites to watch a community grow.
By starting groups and managing a network it becomes more professional with time. Hosting events takes courage with Q&A’s but it’s great for practice and although difficult shows you know your niche off by art. Meeting people that have something in common really helps with motivation.
Relationship Marketing
Relationship marketing is a facet of customer relationship management (CRM) that focuses on customer loyalty and long-term customer engagement rather than shorter-term goals like customer acquisition and individual sales.
Creation of customer relations means better sales and commitment to the cause of answering to those that have an absolute positive vibe about their choice to buy from you and keep coming back for more knowing that they trust your product and customer service skills.
It creates traffic that comes from word of mouth and adheres to a more common marketing strategy that is second to none. Once people talk about a business, product or event people become a part of the whisper and join in on the gossip and often attend be it online or not or buy a product that is being talked about.
Affiliate marketers often congregate and talk about the greatest programs, some write websites about them and some make a huge profit from advertising for them. There are five levels of relationship marketing as follows:
- Basic Marketing.
- Reactive Marketing.
- Accountable Marketing.
- Proactive Marketing.
- Partnership Marketing.
Relationship marketing is about communication between a business and its audience, while transactional marketing is more of a one-way dialogue from a company to its buyers. … In short, relationship marketing is customer-oriented, while transactional marketing is sales-oriented.
Learning about Modern Marketing Techniques
Learning about modern marketing techniques is a must. I know back in 2002 I had several internet businesses and I folded on all of them. If I had of researched more and carried on, then today my plight for total financial freedom would be have been resolved.
Calculating the future of online marketing is a hard task and modern strategies such as social media don’t always work. It’s at most important to redesign your own techniques you have learned from others to work for you. No matter how much effort it takes never give in to become a true hustler.

I called it the gateway to affiliate marketing for a reason to connect with those that want a business of their own to find success.
Hi,
Truly amazing and educational post. Totally agreed on the bases that online business owners need to show more appreciation for their customers (relational) instead focusing on sales-oriented been that nobody wants to feel like they being sold to but want to feel businesses also care about them.
Thanks for the great post and I hope other newbies like myself get the chance to read this and grow their business (growth hackers) sooner.
Hi Benson,
Thanks for liking my post it’s great that people are viewing my posts and joining WA. I try to write as I can with over 70 posts there is a lot for beginners to read and learn about affiliate marketing I have learned through WA and other platforms. I think getting people to comment and singing up for the training is a big step but one I am getting really good at a little at a time. I think working hard and never stopping to dream that someday my websites will be fully automated and monetized.
Hi Steve, I am starting out in WA and internet marketing and your article expands my vision by its focus on care and customer service rather than just sales. I also find your proposal, to create affiliate networks to grow professionally and personally, very stimulating. I liked the appearance of your page, it communicates energy and warmth. Thank you.
