Changes are something recurrent and companies have to be prepared for updates, evolutions and new ways of acting to maintain the relationship and retain a customer. With that in mind, we have selected some tips to help ensure good contact with your audience in uncertain times.

As the customer becomes more demanding, getting and retaining their attention becomes more difficult. Therefore, realizing the necessary elements to ensure the loyalty of a consumer is the key to success today.

transmit security

Maslow's hierarchical pyramid of needs says that human beings need, before anything else, to feel safe. Worry about creating a safe experience, whether in online or in-person sales. For example, online stores must use technology and security solutions to ensure that their customers' data is safe when carrying out an online transaction.

Get closer to the customer

With the pandemic, companies that adapted to offer their services online, got closer to consumers and increased their sales, and this is a trend that should be maintained over the next few years.

Physical stores are also a reality and a preference, according to the Fashion Network website, almost 9 out of 10 Portuguese people, who prefer to shop in the stores closest to their home. And 23% revealed that they are more loyal to stores near them.

Being present where your customers are or prefer to be when shopping is undoubtedly a great highlight and an opportunity to be closer to them.

Voice your conscience

Consumers today are increasingly concerned about the origin of products, their value chain, the views on ethics or social responsibility of the brands they buy. 33% of consumers say they are more likely to shop at stores with ethical suppliers or supply chains, and 42% are more concerned about the ethics of a merchant.

Communicating their values, developing a responsible workflow and offering customers the opportunity to donate at the point of payment is one of the ways for brands to be able to respond to this new demand.

let the relationship grow

For the relationship to grow with quality, build relationships and communicate with your customers, understand exactly what their needs are and how your company can solve them. Invest in security, technology and be close, online and physically, to your target audience.

Relaxed narrative: The new language of brands on social media

For years, digital marketing followed an institutional and impersonal language. But times have changed. Today, the public expects transparency, proximity, and authenticity. The relaxed narrative emerges as a response to this new behavior, transforming the way brands communicate. Why is an informal tone more appealing? When a brand speaks as an equal, it gets closer to the consumer. This approach creates empathy and humanizes communication, making messages easier to understand and share. The characteristics of relaxed storytelling Use of natural language: Short sentences, everyday expressions, emojis, and occasional humor. Conversational tone: The feeling of talking to a real person, not a company. Transparency: Showing behind the scenes, mistakes, or real processes. Format flexibility: From texts in the feed to spontaneous videos and live streams. Results of campaigns with a light tone Studies indicate that lighter content generates higher rates of interaction, sharing, and comments. In addition, relaxed storytelling is particularly effective with younger audiences, such as Generation Z and Millennials. Be mindful of the limits of informality Relaxed does not mean sloppy. It is essential to remain consistent with brand values and ensure quality in writing and visual production. Informal and approachable language is not just a passing trend. It is a natural evolution of digital communication, which requires brands to be more courageous, creative, and empathetic. Want to transform your brand's tone and get closer to your audience? Webhouse helps you adapt your company's narrative to your new digital profile, with strategies that combine relaxation and professionalism.  

How Is Voice Content Transforming Digital Marketing?

We live in an era where the agility of information meets convenience. The growth of voice searches and the rise of podcasts are two phenomena changing the way we consume online content. For brands that wish to remain relevant, understanding and adapting to the language of audio is more than an opportunity—it’s a necessity. The Growth of Audio Consumption The audio format has gained ground by offering practicality: you can listen to a podcast while driving, exercising, or performing other tasks. This versatility has boosted platforms such as Spotify, Google Podcasts, and Apple Podcasts, leading many companies to invest in audio series to connect with their audience in a more human and consistent way. Voice Search and Conversational SEO Virtual assistants such as Siri, Alexa, and Google Assistant have changed the way we search. Instead of short, technical phrases, users ask more natural and conversational questions. This requires a new approach to SEO, with content optimized for frequently asked questions, direct answers, and a colloquial tone. Advantages of Producing Audio Content for Brands Increased proximity to the audience: The tone of voice conveys emotion and authenticity. Loyalty: Regular episodes create a consumption habit. Accessibility: People with visual impairments or who prefer listening over reading have easier access. Lower competition: It is still a less saturated format compared to video or text. How to Start Producing Audio Investing in quality equipment, strategically planning topics, and maintaining a clear publishing schedule are the first steps to creating professional audio content. You don’t need to start with large productions—what matters is consistency and delivering value to the listener. Audio is here to stay. In an increasingly fast-paced world, listening is a way to consume information without stopping. Brands that learn to communicate through voice gain more than just listeners—they create lasting connections. Want to make your brand relevant?

Digital marketing without planning is a waste

Have you ever heard that digital marketing doesn't bring results for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)? In most cases, the problem is not with the tools, but with the lack of planning. Investing in social media, ads or content without a clear strategy is like shooting in the dark: you spend time and money without knowing if you've hit your target. What happens when there is no planning? Disjointed messages: communication changes constantly and there is no clear identity. Wasted budget: random boosts and ads rarely generate a return. Lack of real metrics: as there are no defined objectives, the success (or failure) of actions cannot be measured. Demotivation: results are slow to appear - or don't appear at all - and the company gives up before adjusting its course. Planning as the basis for consistent growth Planning in digital marketing involves: Analysis of the target audience: understanding who the ideal customer is and what they are really looking for. Defining real objectives: increase sales? Generate leads? Strengthen the brand? Choosing the right channels: social media, email, ads - everything must be decided on the basis of the strategy. Creating relevant content: it's not enough to publish; you need to communicate with purpose. Measurement and adaptation: with well-defined metrics, you can adjust what doesn't work and reinforce what does. Planning is also for small businesses You don't need a complex or expensive plan. The most important thing is to start with clear objectives and focus on consistent execution. Small, well thought-out steps generate greater results than random, impulsive actions. Ready to plan your SME's marketing with strategy? At Webhouse, we help small and medium-sized businesses create effective digital marketing plans, with a focus on real and sustainable results. Talk to us and find out how planning can transform your business online.

An app isn't just for big brands: Building loyalty through mobile

For a long time, the idea of creating a mobile application (app) was seen as something exclusively for large companies with hefty budgets. However, consumer behavior has changed - and with it, so have the opportunities for small and medium-sized businesses. Today, any business with a customer base and strategic vision can (and should) consider investing in a mobile app. Why do apps increase loyalty? Having an app is like having a direct communication channel in your customer's pocket. More than presence, it creates proximity. And proximity, in marketing, translates into loyalty. Some of the main reasons why an app builds loyalty: Quick and easy access: with just one touch, customers have access to your business - without even needing to search on Google or open social networks. Personalized notifications: you can send promotions, updates or news in real time, with a high read rate. Integrated loyalty programs: points, rewards and exclusive offers make the relationship stronger. Superior user experience: well-designed apps offer fast and functional navigation. Success stories (without being big brands) Hairdressers, clinics and training studios use apps for scheduling appointments, reminders and client management. Restaurants and cafés offer menus, reservations and deliveries via the app, with loyalty features. Small stores create personalized experiences with recommendations based on purchase history. In other words, the technology is accessible and the advantages are real. But does every company need an app? Not always. The most important thing is to understand whether the application facilitates the relationship with the customer. If so, then it's worth the investment. It's also essential that the app is well developed and integrates strategically with the brand's other digital channels. Ready to take the next step in building loyalty? At Webhouse, we create customized mobile applications designed to bring brands closer to their customers and turn presence into loyalty. Talk to us and find out how your company can be closer - and in the pocket - of your customers.  

Why doesn't your website appear on Google?

Having a website is an essential step for any business that wants to make its presence felt online. However, many entrepreneurs feel frustrated when they realize that, even with a seemingly well-built website, visitors simply... don't arrive. The truth is that having a website isn't enough - people need to find it. And for that, there's a keyword: SEO. What is SEO and why is it so important? SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is a set of strategies to improve the positioning of a website in search engines such as Google. When someone searches for a service or product that your business offers, your website should ideally appear in the first few results. If this doesn't happen, your brand will go unnoticed - even if you have a good website. Good SEO isn't magic - it's technique, consistency and strategy. The main causes of an “invisible” website on Google If your website doesn't appear in search results, some of the causes could be: A lack of relevant keywords: the content of the website needs to be aligned with the terms that potential customers search for. Lack of optimized content: it's not enough to have a presentation page. You need to offer useful, up-to-date and well-structured content. Technical problems with the website: slowness, navigation errors, inaccessible links and lack of compatibility with mobile devices all affect positioning. No backlinks: in other words, other trusted websites pointing to yours. Website not indexed: sometimes the website doesn't even appear on Google because it isn't properly configured to be indexed. Simple strategies to make the website more visible Creating strategic content: blogs, service pages and FAQs focused on customer obstacles. Optimizing titles, descriptions and URLs: small changes can generate big results. Local SEO: include location in content and in the Google Business Profile. Frequent updates: show Google that the website is active and evolving. Metrics analysis: identify what's working (and what's not) to make informed decisions. At Webhouse, we help companies optimize their websites so that they are no longer just pretty - but can also be found. Talk to us and find out how you can stand out in the search engines.
