The Role of Color Psychology in Marketing In building a brand, the visual impact of a business logo or website design is as important as the value of the product or service being offered. And one important aspect of that imagery is the color. For some marketers, a color is just something that could be picked off the top of the head and doesn’t really signify something. Brandon Gaille, CEO of the internet marketing company ByReputation.com, which specializes in SEO, social media, reputation management, video production, and web design, shared his thoughts on how colors can influence people to support (or not support) a brand: From brandongaille.com: How Do Colors Affect Us Mentally? Think about the psychological effects of colors before using them. Red: Shows excitement and stimulation.Blue: Creates a feeling of trust and security.Green: Associated with environmental products and promotes feelings of health and tranquility. Schemes, Contrasts, and Choosing Colors When designing a webpage, contrast is very important.
Search Marketing 2014: Comment Marketing rocks! Every New Year there will always be trends to watch for. Women will crave for a new haircut and men go loco for newly-released gadgets. Everyone loves fad, trendy, novelty but no matter how many adjectives you add into this sentence it just says one thing, we always love what’s new and we usually go along with where the crowd is. Even when it’s about Miley Cyrus ‘twerking’ dance move or her music video in her latest song ‘wrecking ball’, no matter how awkward they were, they’re still in. Same thing with the Search Marketing; some had applied trendy strategies that would make them look cool and best to fit the top of the SERP rankings and some had not followed and made their own track. We don’t always have to embrace the latest rather choose what’s effective for our campaign. So to avoid such negative reactions just like Miley had when she swings on that wrecking ball bare and naked, why don’t we dance like Madonna? Here are some tips on blog commenting that never lose the spotlight:

B2B Appointment Setting, Telemarketing, Face-to-Face Appointments | Callbox What Will SMBs Focus on in 2014? Greater Online Presence We’ve all heard about the brouhaha about how mobile usage will take over desktop particularly starting in 2014. That’s why businesses have started giving more focus on making their strategies compatible to mobile devices. But that’s only for huge businesses. Small and medium-sized businesses apparently are rather behind their larger counterparts when it comes to going mobile. So why aren’t they joining the mobile revolution? j2 Global’s research, as reported by eMarketer.com, indicated that a common increase in online presence, including things as basic as setting up a website or online store, was the top priority for 2014 for nearly three in 10 SMB professionals surveyed. “More than 45% of the US population will use the mobile internet at least monthly this year, eMarketer estimates, a figure set to rise to nearly two-thirds by 2017. This goes to show that not all sectors of the business chain are able to go with the changing times.
How to Rule the World of Online Marketing – Beyoncé Style When Beyoncé decided to surprise everyone by an abrupt album release on iTunes last December, she circumvented around standard methods for the music industry.

First, you need to connect with the right people and understand your audience. 2. 3. 4.

Whether it’s through subscriptions forms, call to actions or downloads, marketers would use every tactic to achieve this goal.

The following 3 questions, shared by Eric Coffman, Research Analyst and contributor at MarketingSherpa.com, examine the significance of offering these incentives to prospects for B2B lead generation purposes: Do your incentives provide tangible value to your visitors?
