Australia's e-commerce scene is booming, with online retail sales expected to reach a staggering $60 billion by 2025. But amidst this abundance of opportunity, fierce competition can leave even seasoned businesses struggling to stay afloat. If you're an e-commerce entrepreneur yearning for explosive sales growth and increased brand visibility, partnering with the right marketing consultant can be your foundation towards progress.

Keyword mapping is assigning specific keywords to individual pages on a website to improve search engine rankings and increase visibility to potential customers. For e-commerce businesses, effective keyword mapping is crucial for attracting and converting visitors into customers.

Effective keyword mapping also helps e-commerce businesses better understand their target audience and what they are searching for. By identifying high-volume, low-competition keywords, businesses can create more targeted and relevant product pages that meet the needs of their potential customers.

The following sections will cover several strategies for effective keyword mapping for e-commerce businesses.

In the world of online marketing in the digital age, Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) plays a critical role in driving organic traffic to a website impacting the success of a business. Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is the process of advancing a web page to rank higher in the search engine results pages. While there are many factors that contribute to SEO success, one of the most important is producing high-quality content.

While a marketing consultant is not essential to the success of your business, employing one with industry experience will certainly help to streamline a company's marketing efforts. Employed as an external advisor, a marketing consultant will bring their expertise to your business to plan and execute proven marketing strategies. A consultant understands the customer's unique needs, analyses market insights, processes and issues. All this garnered information is combined with their knowledge to suggest and apply solutions that will improve your company's marketing efforts. 

Marketing Eye was engaged by Quest Sanctuary Lakes to develop a marketing strategy which created a deeper online presence and exposure through social media channels and EDMs. A Christmas card campaign and information brochure were also created, highlighting the guest and corporate services offered by the modern apartment style hotel rooms located only 20 mins from the CBD.

Data has played a vital role in turning marketing from an art into a science and now there’s more than ever. It can be difficult to know what statistics you should be paying attention to and how to use them. So how do you know your website is performing? What can you do to improve it? Here is Marketing Eye’s quick guide to Google Analytics statistics and how to use them to improve your online marketing. 

The most important thing you need to understand about Google Analytics Stats is that no singular statistic will tell you everything. The key to making informed decisions is looking at several statistics to form a more complete picture of your online marketing, and compare this to your strategy to see if you are on the right path. If you’re getting all your traffic from Twitter, but no one is buying your products, maybe you need to rethink your social media strategy.

It's Christmas time and without realising it, I have almost run out of time to buy gifts for my loved ones. 

One of my team members in Sydney said that they had bought some things from Little Sale Birdy, a website designed to find all the sales for brand items online and provide one single marketplace where you get the best deal possible.  After visiting the site, I was mesmerized by the quality options that the website has and quickly purchased a pair of shoes. 

I then went off and started searching for different brand items for my nieces and nephews and was surprised that other sites had the same items at a much higher price. I like Little Sale Birdy because it stops me from wasting time looking up different websites to find the same thing, just at different prices. Instead, they give me access to all the sales online at once - saving time and money.

The name Little Sale Birdy is kind of cute. It's less corporate and feels a bit cheeky and more personal than the other brands online. 

With many shoppers experiencing "checkout anxiety" with more than $1.79 trillion dollars worth of goods abandoned by shoppers online this year, its reassuring to know that if you go to Little Sale Birdy you will always get the best price because they actually bring together all the sale sites, providing the customer with full access to all sales in one market place without the worry that you may be ripped off or you have to fill in your details more than once.

In Malcolm Gladwell's book The Tipping Point, he popularised the theory of The Two-Step Flow of Communication (Lazarsfeld & Katz, 1955)¹ by explaining how innovation and information is spread in a two-step flow, from mass media to influencers - and then onto the masses via the influencers. Gladwell renamed this theory ‘The Law of The Few’ and colourfully reworded it as, "The success of any kind of social epidemic is heavily dependent on the involvement of people with a particular and rare set of social gifts (the ability to influence others)".² If you can overlook the blatant plagiarism, Gladwell must be congratulated for bringing the principles of the original theory back into the mainstream almost 50 years after its original publication, at a time when understanding influencers is more important than ever (if you're in marketing or politics).

As business owners and managers in an ever evolving world, our jobs become more challenging every day – every hour – to cut through clutter and make consumers notice our message.

How many times do we find ourselves repeating what we say to co-workers to get a message across?  For most of us, this isn’t a reflection of how we’re gauged as professionals or individuals but 95% attributable to the ‘151 rule’.

They say a person needs to hear new information at least three times before it registers into his/her mind for immediate recollection.  This has been taught over and over again to us and you can test it by saying aloud a new name you come across three times consciously.

When you target a market with a specific message the same rule applies, all except your target isn’t one person and those three times won’t cut it.  It’s all about repetition.  You have no control over which people are listening at what time of the day - so the logical bet is to be accessible and available 24/7/365.

Successfully revitalising a brand is every marketer’s dream but is no easy task, requiring persistence and hard work. Changing customer perceptions and providing clarity of the brand’s values is difficult, especially when it comes to transforming the target public’s entrenched mindset.

Marketing Eye wanted to change the way consumers perceived American Property Partners (APP). Was the APP brand clearly projecting the message it wanted to put forward to the general public? It is essential for portfolio managers to present themselves as reliable. After all, customers must trust them with their investments.
