Abstract:

The article offers some tips on marketing electronic products and services effectively. Look for additional information sources about local user behaviors and attitudes. Chat reference transcripts can provide information into user needs and frustrations and remarks that clearly reflect user's opinions and attitudes. Pick a target by picking a resource that will give the biggest bang for the marketing buck. Create a 12-month marketing calendar assigning a resource or service to a unique period. Do not promote a thing, promote a benefit on convenience and ease of use. In constructing a message, be brief, speak to the rule and be visual with graphics.
