Inbound marketing - It all starts with a great strategy
Captivate. Convert. Close. Sounds pretty easy, right? Only, few organizations feel they have a cohesive inbound strategy that drives quantifiable results. That’s where we come. We plan, manage, and execute for you.
What is Inbound Marketing?
Inbound marketing is a marketing methodology designed to draw visitors and potential customers in, rather than outwardly pushing a brand, product or service onto prospects in the hope of lead generation or customers. It is a strategy that utilizes many forms of pull marketing – email automation, content marketing, blogs, events, SEO, social media and more – to create brand awareness and attract new business.
In contrast to outbound marketing, where marketers attempt to find customers and push messages to them, inbound marketing earns the attention of customers and makes the company easy to be found.
Inbound marketing has helped level the competitive playing field. Standing out in increasingly competitive and saturated markets requires better content, more adaptive and innovative campaigns, and stronger integrations with sales productivity tools. Target personas need to be carefully researched, audience segments need to be more niche, and buyer journeys better understood. You need a team who can do the marketing research, map out a plan, execute and continuously optimize performance that drives real results.

Considerations
Measurement
Measuring the impact of inbound marketing in a way that demonstrates understandable ROI often feels elusive. It may be that you struggle to track the number of leads generated as a direct result of your campaigns, but you can track how many downloads your resource has had, the average duration people watched your video, or how many new social media followers you gained.
When we plan campaigns, we are clear about what we are trying to achieve for your business, and we track those key performance indicators honestly and in real-time. That way we are all the same page about results, measurement, and overall performance at any given time.
Long-term strategy
Planning and executing successful inbound marketing campaigns doesn’t happen overnight. Campaigns take time to plan, implement and refine. It can be a labor-intensive process – we leverage content writers, designers, developers, outreach specialists, social media marketers and campaign managers to implement our plans, refine, and optimize. That said, when we put time and effort into targeted campaigns, we find measurable results that often range between 2x and 20x our return on investment.
