Things to Consider When Marketing Your Game

Building and launching your game is just the beginning! Customers have to know that your game exists. Marketing can feel so overwhelming, however, that you may want to keep putting it off. But doing so will be a terrible mistake.

Here are some tips to help market your game.

1. Know Your Audience

Knowing what audience you want your game to attract is the first challenge in marketing. This is something you should think about at the idea and planning stage. Games succeed because developers reach and engage and spark an interest in people.

2. Know How to Talk to Your Audience

Game developers make the mistake of talking to fellow game developers. They want to impress each other with their technical skills. In doing so, they end up alienating the people who they should be attracting to play the game: gamers.

How do you, as a game developer, connect with gamers? Gamers are passionate about games and gaming. Speak to this passion. Talk about games that inspired you to build your game. Talk about the thrill you felt when playing these games and how it inspired you to build your game.

3. Marketing Is a Daily Practice

Promoting your game is something you will need to do on a daily basis. It starts with having a very clear and targeted marketing strategy that involves community building.

And since all marketing is about building a community around your product, set aside particular hours to engage with your community through social media platforms because they provide a built-in audience eager to hear about your game.

Constantly think about engagement strategies that involve interacting with gamers from all walks of life.

4. Build, Grow, and Nurture Your Online Community

Here's where community management comes in. How do you create activities that get your community talking to each other and about the game? How do you build a loyal and engaged audience? How do you bring more people into your community?

Post regular, interesting, useful content. Ask your community of gamers for feedback, thank them for their comments, and build anticipation by telling them what other games you're developing.

Make constant interaction an indispensable part of your community. Educate your users on how to play the game and ask them to post new tricks they've discovered.

Creating a Game Trailer That Generates Buzz

Trailers are the best way to show people why your product is awesome. They explain why your game is special and tell people where they can get it!

They create anticipation and generate buzz. As a tool for engaging an audience, they are perfect because people relate easily to video.

So what should you keep in mind when creating a trailer?

Remember it's about telling a story with a beginning, middle, and end. Your beginning is the intro, and your end is the call to action. The middle is the exciting highlights of the game.

What story does your game tell, and how do you tell it with the game trailer?

1. Create excitement. A trailer is there to grab attention. Think of how you will create an intro that draws the audience in, grab their attention from the beginning, and sustain it to the end. So keep it short. 90 seconds is ideal.

2. Focus on the highlights of the game.This is the middle part where you tell users what sets your game apart. The biggest mistake is to bore the audience to death—this means the death of your game before it's in the hands of gamers. So pacing is important. Choose the most engaging parts of your game, build them up to a cliff-hanger, and make people want more.

3. Music and sound effects are an indispensable part of any trailer. Music is the sidekick to your attention-grabbing visuals. Choose a soundtrack that is inspiring and moves with the rhythm of the visuals in your game trailer. And the sound effects should also work together with these elements to build excitement.

4. Include endorsements. Reach out to critics, bloggers, and developers in the industry, and ask them to write blurbs for your game. This gives credibility to your work and establishes you as a professional.

5. Have a clear call to action. The trailer is there to sell your game. It must have a clear call to action. Tell people to visit your website or the platforms hosting your game and buy it.
