5 Smart Tips To Create Successful Moment Marketing For Startups!

We can never forget the moment when during a press conference Cristiano Ronaldo moved aside Coca-Cola bottles. While this one small action resulted in the reduced valuation of the famous brand overnight, many other brands made the most out of this opportune moment to score a creative goal.

A lot of creative memes were captured on the screen followed by several famous brands like Fevicol hijacking the event to connect with their customers. The idea was simple- custom-fit the controversy according to their brand, to market themselves, appeal to their clients, and rope in new ones. This was a moment of marketing that was used by all popular brands across the globe and equally works for small start businesses.

 So what exactly is this concept of Moment Marketing that has become all the rage?

Moment Marketing is an awesome technique that utilizes the ongoing viral event without having to pay for it. Though many people assume that it is a new thing, they are completely mistaken. The Utterly Butterly Amul girl has been hijacking the ongoing events for decades. The creative and witty liners have been received well and enjoyed by the audiences as well.

If you are an entrepreneur, who is looking to hijack a viral moment for your brand presence to reach more audience, here are 5 tips to ace it:

1. Stay Updated with the Trends & Keep Your Product in the Centre

One of the most crucial aspects of Moment Marketing is to stay updated with the viral trends. It helps you to recreate the viral moments and this connectedness helps you to spot trends and stay upgraded with the important news.

While you may be already attuned to the growing trends on social media, you still might have to keep an eye out for those trends that can be utilized as a part of moment marketing for your brand.

Another thing that should be kept in mind while crafting a marketing strategy is to link it smartly back to your product. It will help to create brand awareness and accomplish the ultimate goal of improving sales and customers.

2. Incorporate Humor

Humor is the best way to put across your brand message on the internet and bring a smile to your customer`s face. Irrespective of the trends, brands that manage to capture viral trends with a funny jab on them are usually rewarded with high audience engagement, increased followers, or even paid media mentions.

Brands like Burger King, Amul, Zomato, and IKEA understand the power of humor and hence utilize it to take on current topics. If you are an entrepreneur with a small startup business, you can follow their page to realize that this approach works well for them.

3. Pop Culture All the Way

Can we ever forget the evergreen superhero movies or memes that have funny references from Gangs of Wasseypur? Pop culture references are the best way to grab your customers` attention. Your brand can create posts that have a feel of an inside joke using your brand`s voice while sharing your brand`s ethos and subtly building affinity without your target audience.

If you have a startup business, you can use this trend to increase your brand awareness on Social Media Platforms.

4. Maintain your Brand`s True Voice Without Being Pushy

Marketing strategies that appear effortless work like a breeze. There is a fine line between effortless moments marketing and marketing that appears to be a desperate attempt by a brand to look cool. Always ensure that your efforts don`t fall into the latter category by keeping your brand`s core values at the forefront of all your moment marketing activities.

5. Choose Trends Wisely

Not every customer is a potential customer. Similarly, not every trend is meant for your brand. Not every incident, or event needs to resonate with your brand`s personality. Neither should you try and insert your brand into every trending topic out there.

When a trend talks about controversial issues like politics, religious sentiments, wars, or any other sensitive issues, it is best to keep a distance as you would not want your brand to be associated with something which is remotely offensive.

Moment marketing for brands is a fun way to engage with your customers. And while Ronaldo or Zomato may provide the push to set the marketing ball rolling, it is the quick, witty, and collaborative thinking that results in successful moment marketing.

5 Amazing Low-Cost Marketing Ideas To Scale Your Business Revenue

We all know marketing is essential for every business, but it is even more crucial for startups. Unless your target audience is not aware of your products and services, they will not buy them. At Bada Business, we come across many businesses looking to scale their business, but none are more hungry for growth than the startups or entrepreneurs with small startup business ideas.

Whether it’s a small packaging business or a new chain of ice-cream shops, startups require distinct marketing strategies. Since marketing for startups is a unique case, this article will throw some light on the 5 best marketing strategies for businesses to grow and expand their presence.

1. GUERILLA MARKETING

The name of this marketing strategy was inspired by a war strategy that involves some unconventional methods to plan attacks on the army. Guerilla Marketing is an inbound advertising technique that aims to highlight a product or a service by using an unconventional method that requires little money.

The main objective of this marketing technique is to raise brand awareness among large audiences, without interrupting them. Many popular brands like KitKat and NIVEA has created a storm amidst people by making the most out of Guerilla Marketing technique.

One of the most important aspects of this marketing technique is the positioning of the ad. Creative positioning can determine the success or failure of your advertisement.

2. VALUE EDGE MARKETING

If you want your product or service to be a hit amidst the customers, it requires having a special angle. A compelling value proposition helps a business to stand out. The best instance of Value Edge Marketing is showcased recently by the company JEEP.

To showcase its toughness and compatibility with the roads and parking spots in the country, the brand created squares of parking spots. The parking squares were drawn in such a way that they were covering staircase and footpaths speaking volumes about its powerful driving.

3. MOMENT MARKETING

Moment marketing is the ability to take the advantage of any ongoing event and creating engaging communications and marketing collaterals around such events. This amazing marketing technique gives the brand a golden opportunity to insert themselves in the ongoing events that viral and bring relevance to how they market their product and services.

Amul is one of those brands that has been using this technique for a very long time, followed by Coca-Cola, Pepsi, and Fevicol. If you want to increase the reach of your target audience this low-cost marketing strategy can bring maximum results.

4. AMBUSH MARKETING

Ambush Marketing is another marketing strategy that if used strategically can yield better results without costing a single penny. The nature of this marketing strategy involves riding on the coattails of a major event or campaign without paying or participating in the sponsorship.

Creative flexibility, visual trickiness, and witty wordplay are the primary ingredients to make a world-class ad campaign. One of the best examples is Visa and American Express. When Visa became the official sponsor of the 92` Olympics in France, Tickets for the games could only be purchased via VISA card.

By using the technique of Ambush marketing, American Express launched a slogan, “When you go to Spain, you will need a passport, but you don`t need a Visa.” This tactic is perfect for small startup business owners.

5. UNDERCOVER MARKETING

Undercover marketing aims to promote a product without actually depicting its promotion. It involves unconventional tactics to endorse a product in a less obvious manner. The best examples of this marketing technique can be seen in Bollywood movies, quite often.

In the movie Hulchul, the character of Shaheed Kapoor and Rajpal Yadav wash clothes with Tide detergent powder. Similarly, in the movie Yaadein, all the characters of the movie can be seen eating “Paas-Paas” mouth freshener.

These were some of the most powerful marketing techniques that involve zero to very minimum expenditure. However, their impact is quite large. If you are entrepreneurs who want to create brand awareness, these strategies can be implemented to grow your business.
