How Does Digital Advertising Work?
Digital Advertising is a multi-step process. It begins by looking at your brand and identifying ways to make consumers stop and take a second look. People interested in your product/service usually fall into a different layer, almost like a funnel. Consider when you go to the electronics store: The first time you go, you may just be looking around at your options. You return a few days later and evaluate the ones that stood out to you the most. You go home and weigh the pros and cons that you picked out while there today, and then when you return tomorrow, you pick your model and take it home.
Awareness
Awareness is where customers learn about your brand. They are at the top of the funnel looking for a product or service. Now they know that your brand exists.
Evaluation
Evaluation is the middle of the funnel where prospective customers begin contemplating making a purchase or signing up for your service.
Conversion
Conversion is the bottom of the funnel. It is the ultimate goal where people take action & buy your product/service.
