+ What is Pay-per-Click (PPC) advertising? How does it work?
Pay-per-click is a payment model for online advertising, in which an advertiser pays a publisher (such as Google or Instagram) when an ad is clicked. With PPC advertising, we can set a daily budget to ensure you don't surpass this amount.
The cost per click depends on a number of factors that relate to the quality of the advertisement:
- Does it follow best practice advertisement techniques for the platform it’s published on (i.e., Google or Instagram)?
- Is the advertisement copy relevant to the copy on the landing page it links to?
- The visitor behaviour after the ad is clicked. For example, if visitors click the ad and leave instantly, this would be considered a poor user experience and increase your cost-per-click.
+ What does organic marketing mean?
Simply put, when the term "organic" is used in marketing, it means that paid advertising is not used to promote the initiative. An organic marketing strategy generates results naturally over time, rather than using paid advertising.
+ What costs do I need to consider for social media advertising?
You need to consider the following costs when advertising on social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook and Linkedin:
- Daily, Pay-per-Click advertising budget (applicable to paid advertising only)
- Graphic and video design services to develop the creatives for your posts (applicable to both organic and paid advertising)
- Copywriting services for ad copy and also copy on the landing page or the document the social media post links to (applicable to both organic and paid advertising)
- Social media management plan, consistent content output, monitoring, analyzing, controlling and reporting on your overall performance.
+ What costs do I need to consider when advertising on Google Search?
You need to consider the following costs when advertising on Google or other search engines such as Bing:
- Daily, Pay-per-Click advertising budget
- Copywriting services for ad copy and also copy on the landing page the ad links to
- Search engine marketing management to monitor, analyze, control and report on your overall performance

Precise ͵͵ can set up the loyalty program for you and connect it to your systems allowing customers to collect points.

+ How do I know if my online ads are generating parking revenue?
To determine whether online ads that revolve around attracting transient customers are generating revenue, your parking operator must know your average transaction rate, the number of transactions, and the number of requests for directions during the time the ads were running. Smart parking technology is required to gather this data. For ads that revolve around permit sign-ups for frequent visitors, the ads must include a QR code or pin code that can be identified on-site.
+ What is a parking operator's number one mistake when promoting a parking lot?
The number one mistake parking operators tend to make is not creating an online map listing for the parking lot itself or registering the parking lot address as the building address. This can cause drivers to circle the block countless times to find your lot.
+ Is social media marketing effective for parking?
Social media marketing makes parking more personal and creates a direct communication channel with your customers. It allows you to sell your social experience on a large scale while reinforcing your online presence.
+ What are creative ways I can market my facility?
