Infographics are a great way to involve your customers in the information you’re trying to present. Why? Because instead of just telling people info about your company, or a long string of boring data, you’re giving them a visual representation of the facts they need to know.
Because, let’s face it, reading info can be boring, overwhelming, and time consuming. Wouldn’t it be better if there was a way to conceptualize this data in a fun graphic?
There are a lot of ways to use infographics, so check out these tips on this handy tool!
Data
One of the most common uses of infographics is to take data from your company — whether it be sales numbers, profits, or anything that has to do with numbers — and transform it into an easily understandable graphic.
It’s sometimes hard for others to understand the big picture with the numbers you’re presenting to them, especially if they’re not mathematically-minded (raises hand). So, take all that data you’ve entered into a spreadsheet, and get your graphics team to turn it into a fun graphic. It’ll make your company look more modern, and will help out your audience a ton.
Education
Infographics aren’t just for big data; they can also be used to educate and inform. For a lot of people, learning happens in different ways than just reading info in an article. There are those that learn best through visualization. In fact, there are three main ways people learn: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic.
In this way, infographics can be used to educate your customers about new products, what your brand is about, or goals you look to accomplish through your company.
They can also be used to educate your employees. For example, if some of your employees are visual learners rather than auditory, then explaining rules vocally will do absolutely no good. These employees need to see the information, and infographics are a great way to do that.
Brand Awareness
If you’re trying to get customers interested in your product through a marketing campaign, but don’t have the money to shell out on paid advertisements, then infographics are your best friend.
Rather than spending a ton of money paying advertising companies to promote your brand, why not just do it yourself?
Social media is a wonderful way to do this, but you have to be cautious about what you promote. Facebook is more strict than other sites, like Twitter and Instagram, so make sure your read through their terms of use before promoting your product.
But there’s no rule that says you can’t get customers interested in your product through a visually appealing infographic. Just make sure you promote it as an educational graphic, rather than an advertisement.
Don’t be afraid to use infographics to your advantage! They can be great tools to add, and are simple and fun to make!
