How We Do Successful Product Marketing
In the following, we explain how RP Photonics achieves that:
1. RP Photonics offers the industry-leading photonics website.
RP Photonics Encyclopedia | Our acclaimed RP Photonics Encyclopedia covers scientific and technical fields like optics and optoelectronics, laser technology, fiber optics, nonlinear optics, lightwave communications, imaging, optical metrology, quantum technology and spectroscopy. | |
RP Photonics Buyer's Guide | Our encyclopedia is closely linked with the RP Photonics Buyer's Guide, which is the ideal photonics marketplace: there is a direct correspondence between Encyclopedia articles and lists of suppliers, for example: Encyclopedia article on laser diodes ⇆ suppliers for laser diodes. |
|
Virtual Exhibition | The nicely made RP Photonics Virtual Exhibition shows the supplier landscape in another way. It is closely connected with the Buyer's Guide and serves everybody for 365 days a year. |
Our unique information resource is of great value for anyone working in photonics – and totally for free for the users!
2. Your target audience is there.
Unparalleled popularity | Tens of thousands of photonics professionals use it: personnel in scientific research and industrial R & D, business staff, laser market experts, etc. Users are from industry and science – who else would use such a resource? Many are fans of the Encyclopedia, using it very regularly. The Encyclopedia and Buyer's Guide receive around 3 million page views per year! |

3. We have a well working concept.
Proven concept | We understand precisely how our Buyer's Guide works for its users. Based on that, we have developed a proven digital marketing concept which lets that resource work for our advertising customers, using our advertising package. |
How it works | The crucial aspect: users confronted with a huge number of suppliers need to produce a short list for closer inspection. For that, they primarily use product information, which is presented only by those using our ad package. The much improved chance to survive the pre-selection means correspondingly more sales leads. |
Other marketing concepts, primarily based on yellow-pages effects, cannot remotely reach that effectiveness.

You pay a fixed amount per year, depending on the number of registered product categories. There is no automatic prolongation, but far over 90% of our advertisers are happy to prolong it year by year, seeing the results.
We do not try to intrude your sales process and get commissions. Rather, we send users over to your website, and it stays your business to sell to them, not involving us in any way.
5. We consistently deliver.
Many companies of all sizes are working effectively with us and are happy to renew the advertising package every year. They have learned that here you get a better deal than anywhere else:
