The focus in 4Cs is on communicating with the target audience instead of merely selling the products. The goal of 4Cs of marketing is to improve the customer experience. 4Cs include customer needs and wants, cost, convenience and communication.<\/p>\n In today`s market place, if you do not pay attention to the customer wants, your business will fail. Understanding the audience persona rather than focusing on product features is easier in digital platforms. Digital marketing allows you to reach your target audience, be aware of competitors\u2019 comments and use creative ideas to improve customer experience.<\/p>\n Cost not only includes the price of an item but it includes things such as the time it takes for the customer to get to your location to buy the product, or the cost of gas that it takes to get there, or their concerns about the product`s quality. Moreover, you should provide some facilities for your customers in order to reduce their costs. For instance, providing online shopping with free delivery, detailed information about a product, secured payment gateway, money-back guarantee and after-sale services and other various processes make your customers sure and satisfied with their purchase.<\/p>\n By optimizing sales and marketing processes, marketers should make it easier for customers to buy the products. Here are some examples that you can simplify the buying process for your customers: placing the products in a location that is accessible for customers, providing free parking lot for physical locations, creating positive user experience by designing websites or applications, a comprehensive content in order to introduce the products or services, supporting online payments, simplifying registration on the website and a powerful customer relationship management (CRM)<\/a>.<\/p>\n You are not just a promote however, marketing requires interaction between you and your customers. Digital marketing is a tool to simplify this interaction and communication. Inbound marketing, appealing content creation, getting customer`s feedbacks, social media activities<\/a>, engaging the audience and using strategies to make customers loyal<\/a> are some of the customer-oriented approaches.<\/p>\nPlace<\/h3>\n
