Ebullience:
However, in a swift reaction, Buhari’s Aide on New Media, Lauretta Onochie, while congratulating Atiku, said his emergence has made APC’s job easy.

“Congratulations Alh. Atiku Abubakar. You have outspent the rest. You have a new toy. But believe it, it’s only a dream. Our job made easy.”

Despite my warning, these senseless PDP are about to elect Tambuwal, what the effing is wrong with you people? Are you okay? Can't you understand Tambuwal cannot even win his ward in Sokoto let alone SE, SS,SW and NC? Who knows him outside of Sokoto for God sake? Secondus and Wike should be arrested for fraud.

The cost of running a front-page advert in a national newspaper is nothing less than #200,000 and also the cost of running a campaign advert on either radio or television is not cheap as well. Politics is money! And most of the time, winning an election is not how much you have to spend but how wise and strategic you are in spending.

The #NotTooYoungtoRun bill which was passed not quite long raised some concern that, even though youths manage to pay for nomination forms, many of them do not have enough financial backup that will help fund their campaign ― maybe because they do not know the power of digital marketing and how cost effective it could be.

With the advent of digital marketing, anybody can now campaign like any rich aspirant could do. An aspirant who is ready to gain more voters to his/her side too needs to start considering the use of digital marketing.

Before exploring the different techniques of digital marketing any politician could use for the political campaign, let us quickly analyse some advantages of its use.

Advantages of Digital Marketing in Political Campaign

Cheap and Cost Effective
Traditional adverts aside being expensive ― they are outdated. How many people read their news from newspapers compare to the number of people reading from their gadgets? Digital marketing helps you get your supporters where they are most likely to be ― on social media and their phones.

Argumentum Ad Populum
In philosophy, argumentum ad populum is the belief of some people that if many people are talking about something, then such a thing must be really important. It is often concisely encapsulated as: “If many believe so, it is so.” It is easy to create a trending content online that a lot of people could buy into to boost your popularity and relevance overnight.


It Is Never Too Late
Digital marketing can be used to turn the tide of an election in your favor even in few days to the election. With digital marketing, it is never too late to start campaigning, although earlier is better.

Domain Name
For any aspirant who is willing to take advantage of the astonishing opportunities digital marketing has to offer, the first thing to do is to buy a domain name for his/her campaign. Let the name be same with the name you are popular with or wish to be known such as www.samboadeola.com or www.gtfcampaign.com.

One Trick: Buy as much as possible domain names to redirect to your website, especially a name belonging to your opponent before they wake up to do so. Donald Trump for example used his opponent’s name www.jebbush.com and redirected it to his own campaign website www.donaldjtrump.com.

Finally,

Combining digital marketing with traditional marketing platform for your political campaign is a good choice if you can afford it. According to a Forbes article on Obama campaign “Digital was a huge factor, but not a huge cost. While the campaign ambitiously used email and digital channels to drive fundraising and issue awareness, the cost was a fraction of TV. They started more heavily in TV, but noted that digital got more attention the more they could measure results, while the cost remained far lower than buying spots throughout campaign season.”
