We ALL know those lovely dancing people in the Lower My Bills advertisements. Unique online advertising that promotes consumers to click on their animated banners. Anyone in the mortgage world who has ever bought leads, has probably at some point or another purchased leads from this company. In recent weeks, I have been writing some various posts about different aspects of our economy and how it seems to be affecting different online companies.
Who would have ever thought there would be an affect on such a large company as Lower My Bills.  It appears that it has.
LMB it seems is now getting into remarketing through email campaigns?  They weren’t doing this already? From what I read they were not.  So what could be the reasoning behind something like this? Was there never a need to remarket because the payouts on selling leads multiple times was enough to satisfy them? Has business slowed down so much that they need to remarket their database to generate new online activity (new leads, clicks, better EPL etc)? Maybe the cost for online marketing is too costly for them, and they need to come up with lower cost ways to generate leads?
No matter what the reason is, there seems to be not one industry or company that is not some how affected by what is going on in our economy.
Companies must start thinking outside the box in order to come up with more efficient ways to generate business at a lower cost.  Email marketing seems to be the answer for Lower My Bills, so what are other companies going to do to adjust and stay afloat?
I HOPE THAT DOESN’T MEAN THE DANCING PEOPLE BANNERS ARE GOING TO GO BYE BYE……..
