Laura Aiken How are you being found?
Written by Laura Aiken   
Every time you roll out a new marketing program, you look to see how well the investment paid off for you. Either you want to see new customers coming in the door or existing clientele ordering more. One of the challenges in measuring your marketing is figuring out how the customer found out about you in the first place. Once you have this data, it becomes easier to focus your efforts. A recent study put pizza as the number item searched for by TeleNav GPS users in the U.S. Considering how much Canadians like thier pizza, statistics are probably similiar here. This technology nets drive-by traffic but likely only the ones that are closest to you in passing by. There are mobile phone apps that perform the same functions. It all seems to basically act as a fancy yellow pages system that gives context to the individual’s location in relation to the desired location. Has any of this technology increased the number of customers coming through your door? Consider providing an incentive to have your staff remember to ask each new customer how they found your pizza. As the number of ways to market grow, so does the murkiness of where to put your marketing time and money. Find out more about how your customers are finding you and you’ll be better on track when it comes to going out and finding them.
