How to Successfully Advertise Your Business on a Budget




The Challenges of Marketing

Many business owners find it challenging to find an effective way to advertise their product or brand as they may not always have a lot of funds readily available to splurge on expensive marketing materials.



Some may choose to give up at this point, believing that there is no way to successfully promote their business for a fraction of the cost. However, here at Ribbonworks.co.uk, we are pleased to let you know that we offer a fantastic range of promotional products at extremely affordable prices.

In this post, describe four methods you can advertise your business on a budget.

Sponsor a Local Team
One way to successfully promote a business locally is to sponsor a local sports team. For a small fee, you could buy fourteen shirts that would be worn in local matches so that people from the area can see your brand logo while watching a game.



Being a supporter of your local side is an excellent way to enforce the idea that your business is there and supports local investment and growth.

Free Notice Boards

Make use of free notice boards by putting some printed advertisements of your business in supermarkets or a community centre notice board.



Make sure that you use bright colours and have your brand logo on show to attract the eye of potential target customers and draw them in to read your advertisement.

Make Use of Public Transport
You could also make use of public transport by enquiring about advertising your business through a poster on the inside of a bus, taxi or train, as there are usually advertisement spaces available to do so.



You could have hundreds of people looking at your advertisement.

Branded Merchandise

One of the most effective ways to advertise a business on a budget is to give away branded merchandise such as lanyards, silicone wristbands, card holders, and much more. Everyone loves a freebie, and if it has your brand logo emblazoned on it, even better!

Affordable Advertising with Excellent Results


When asked to consider successful advertising methods, many people would automatically assume that this means television or radio adverts that can cost millions of pounds. However, is this entirely necessary to ensure the success of a business? Absolutely not.

Advertising Options

When asked to consider successful advertising methods, many people would automatically assume that this means television or radio adverts that can cost millions of pounds. However, is this entirely necessary to ensure the success of a business? Absolutely not.

Here at Ribbonworks.co.uk, our aim is to show as many business owners as possible that advertising is not all about television; you can effectively advertise your business by using items such as branded lanyards, head and wrist sweatbands and silicone wristbands. All these promotional products are available at affordable prices and prove that you do not have to spend millions to achieve the desired results.

Nevertheless, many companies continue to spend a small fortune on advertising. Bookmaker Coral recently announced a new campaign that on which they have spent millions just to ensure its success.


Rejuvenate Brand

The popular bookmakers have recently launched a multi-million-pound advertising campaign that promotes the company's "extensive" betting offers across many different sports. They have justified spending millions of pounds on their campaign by insisting that it will be a "high-energy and action-packed campaign" that aims to rejuvenate the brand on both the television and radio.


Clever Approach

The new campaign will feature the voice of Peaky Blinders actor Joe Cole; previous adverts have featured sports model Carly Baker and comedian Darren Farley. The bookmakers have been canny in their approach as they will broadcast the campaign over the busy Christmas sports period; it will feature on both Sky and BT Sports channels during this time to capture the attention of their target audiences.


Much More Product Focused

The new campaign is made up of three television adverts, seven radio adverts and press adverts. Coral's brand director, Olly Raeburn, said, "Being a sports fan is not just about winning or losing, it's about getting involved, and this new campaign is designed to encourage punters and would-be pundits to do just that.

Our new executions are much more contemporary and much more product focused. They're brimming with energy, packed full of action and really drive a sense of engagement around sport, putting Coral right at the heart of the action."


Extensive Range of Products

If television and radio advertising is out of your price range, and let's face it, it is for most, do not fret. Ribbonworks knows how to get the most out of your advertising campaign with a limited budget. We have an extensive range of products designed to promote a brand effectively without it costing a small fortune.

Pressure on Publishers as Google and Facebook Dominate Display Ad Market

Advertising Options

Finding a way to successfully advertise your business without spending a fortune can be a difficult task. It is often one that many business owners choose to avoid for as long as possible.

However, here at Ribbonworks.co.uk, we believe that advertising should not be something to avoid; this is why we provide many effective ways to promote your products and services at affordable prices. Nevertheless, many businesses continue to pay extortionate prices for advertising through television, radio and now online media.

While most assume that the best method of advertising is on television, it would appear that more and more businesses are opting to advertise online nowadays.


Mass Amounts of Pressure

A recent report has suggested that Facebook and Google will own more than 70% of all funds spent on display advertisement online in the UK by 2020. Both companies already own around three-quarters of the display ad market in the US, which is worth £18.4 billion, and 53% of the UK's £4 billion.

The increasing supremacy of these companies is putting tremendous pressure on publishers such as newspapers who have found it extremely challenging to maintain and increase revenue from online audiences as both advertising and print sales have decreased massively.

Quite Concerning

A report by OC&C Strategy Consultants has predicted that Google and Facebook will grow around 24% together every year until 2020, which means that they will dominate the total ad market worth £4.1 billion by owning a massive 71% share; this figure is more than the total current value of display advertising in the UK.

Fergus Jarvis, OC&C partner, has explained that many publishers have been concerned about the impact that Google and Facebook may have and that the threat is "quite concerning". He said, "The scale and speed is really a call to action for media companies. By the time they [Facebook and Google] get to 70% of the online ad market, that doesn't leave a lot of space left elsewhere. A lot of usage is going in that direction [mobile devices]. We are now at a pivot point where the average UK adult is spending more time looking at mobile content than TV. We assume that that trend will continue."


Impact

Sir Martin Sorrell, head of the world's largest advertising group WPP, said that this is a "clear example that referee and player can't be the same person and that marking your own homework doesn't work." Jarvis went on to say, "There's quite a lot of sniping around that particular Facebook story. It's not simple how you measure impact. Facebook are responding to some of the concerns. It's a foolish man who bets against Facebook being able to handle those complaints."

Why Everybody Loves Promotional Products

Advertising a business can be a daunting prospect, especially if you do not know where to start. You may be asking yourself certain questions such as 'How do I make sure that it is a success?' or 'What should I use to advertise my business?'
Often, the most strenuous part is trying to find the funds to pay for advertising. At Ribbonworks.co.uk, we provide effective ways to advertise your business at affordable prices, meaning that you don't need to worry about spending a small fortune. Nevertheless, the question is what method should you choose?



Everybody Loves a Freebie


If you are pondering which means of advertisement to go for, make sure that you thoroughly investigate all the different options before deciding. One thing that is for certain though is that everybody loves a freebie.

No matter what it is, people will always appreciate something if it is given to them for free. For example, you are at a local sandwich restaurant and are unsure of which sandwich to choose. Then the assistant informs you that if you purchase one of their new sandwiches, you will get a free drink as well. Automatically, your mind is thinking 'go for it'; this just happens to be one of the most effective means of advertisement.



Appealing to Many

One of the top sellers here at Ribbonworks.co.uk is our head and wrist sweatbands. Say you had planned to go to the gym after a hard day's work but are quite fed up; then someone approaches you with a free sweatband.

You think, 'perfect', that is just what you needed to boost your morale before working out. The more you look at the sweatband, the more you remember that it made you feel happy; then you may look further at the logo that is branded across it. As you can see, this is another form of advertisement that will appeal to many.


Stand Out from the Crowd

If you are looking to promote your business but, like many other small business owners, simply do not have the funds to spend on mass media advertisements, we can help you out. Ribbonworks.co.uk carries a magnificent array of promotional products that we guarantee will ensure your logo stands out from the crowd.

If you require any information or would like to order a free sample, contact us today for further assistance.
