Windows software promotion and marketing

by serializer
5 replies
Hi,

I am trying to find out the best way to market my software VisualCron - an automation tool and task scheduler for Windows.

So far I having been advertising on Google, LinkedIn, Facebok and Spiceworks - all with various success.

Now I am asking for your opinion and help for other alternatives. For example, do you recommend any affiliate program, advertising networks or other for a Windows product like mine?

Thank you!

    You should try Ebay and other shopping sites/networks. Also learning how to sell it on your own website is a great idea too. So you have to learn effective marketing - this includes email marketing - so you need a total marketing plan to sell the heck out of this thing.

    And not JUST for this software product... ANY product that you sell online. Can you ramp up your PPC budget? Have you tried any mobile marketing?

      Ebay? This product is delivered electronically. No physical shipping.

      One thing is emailing existing users. But what about new users? Where can I get email lists?

      Yes, Google markerting for mobile. But this is a Windows product and they cannot download the application from the phone. Of course, they can read about and later visit but it sounds more effective to catch them when they are looking at their normal browser.

    This was done a couple of years ago - I am thinking about the next, more aggressive step.

    at first you have to think about total market place and than you can post your windows software in different site, as media email marketing, popular apps store, reddit, ebay.
