Color Psychology In Marketing [Guide]
When it comes to influencing and persuading humans, colors play an important role. We have assigned different symbols to various colors.
Blogging Wizard contributor Matt Moran has published a beginner’s guide on ‘Color Psychology In Marketing’.
He says, “Color psychology is a field of study that looks at how colors influence our perceptions and behaviours. When we apply this to marketing, we specifically look at how these colors can influence consumers’ impressions of a brand, and how they impact their purchasing decisions.
By better understanding how the colors we use influence our customers, we can make more well-informed marketing decisions.
Why color psychology matters
Understanding color psychology is crucial to the success of your marketing content. Color is what gets your audience to see what you want them to see, feel what you want them to feel, and to do what you want them to do.
The color choices you make greatly affect the usability of your website and the readability of your content, as well as the perception consumers have of your brand and products and how likely they are to make a purchase”.

White space 101: Use plenty of it
A telltale sign of an amateur designer is a shortage (or misuse) of white space. White space (also called negative space) refers to the unmarked spaces around or between visual elements in a design.
Apple’s use of white space for its original HomePod page is extreme but effective. The stark emptiness of the design forces viewers to focus on the product, which is presented as a work of art”.

Choose The Right Social Media Platform for Your Business
By selecting the right social media platform according to the type of your business, you can take the optimum advantage of the social media sphere.
Constant Contact’s Patrick Gillooly has published an article highlighting the best social media platforms for business.
He says, “When I’m out talking to small business owners or those who work in social media marketing for a living, I often get a few very similar questions:
“Do I need to be on every social media platform? There are so many!”
“Facebook is the place to be, right? Everyone is there?”
“Seriously, what platform do I need to be on for my business?”
Ultimately, the answer to these questions is: “it depends.” There is no general “best” social media, but there is one that is best suited for your business. Your answer will depend on three key factors:
- The industry you’re in
- The level of resources you can dedicate to these channels
- Your goals”.
CMI Shares 14 Ways to Get More Opt-Ins From Your Content
Content Marketing Institute contributor Tom Treanor has published an article highlighting 14 ways to get more opt-ins from your content.
He says, “Here are 14 types of opt-ins you can use to grow your mailing list.
General opt-in
First, let’s look at the type of opt-ins you can use on your main website.
1. Squeeze page
Your squeeze page is a landing page with one goal – to encourage visitors to subscribe to your email list. The best way to ensure conversions from your squeeze page is to focus on something that visitors would receive once they subscribe.
For example, if you offer free reports, e-books, guides, tools, or other lead magnets, you should create a squeeze page for each one. While promoting the lead magnet in social media updates and bios, guest author bios, paid ads, and other marketing channels, link to this squeeze page”.
