What is Inbound Marketing?<\/h2>\n

<\/h4>\n\t

With the dominance of the internet, the nature of sales and marketing has drastically changed. Cold calling is no longer effective. Increasingly, businesses of all sizes are turning to inbound marketing as a solution.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

<\/h3>\n

There are four critical phases involved in acquiring customers with this method:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\tATTRACT<\/strong>
\nYou must have a strong online presence to attract strangers who are searching for the products and services you offer. This includes a web \"\"<\/a>site with SEO optimization as well as advertising and social media rich with the keywords they\u2019ve been searching for. They may click on your PPC ads or be routed to your web site as the result of a search.\nCONVERT<\/strong>
\nOnce you\u2019ve gotten the attention of these strangers, they become visitors who are ready to receive more information about your company \"\"<\/a>via click-through calls-to-action on your web site, blog or social media platforms. Your offer or promise of further information will take them to a landing page where you\u2019ll capture their all-important contact information.\nCLOSE<\/strong>\"Leads\"<\/a><\/strong>
\nOnce you\u2019ve built a list of visitors with whom you can now communicate, they become leads who are ready to be taken even further into the sales funnel. Email nurturing campaigns give these contacts additional information about the product or service they\u2019ve been considering and provides them with added assurance that your company is trustworthy and provides quality.
\n\n

As they convert, they\u2019ll either call or email you or welcome your call or appointment.<\/p>\n

DELIGHT<\/strong>
Just because you\u2019ve completed a sale doesn\u2019t meet the relationship has \"\"<\/a>ended. Satisfied customers can become valuable promoters. It\u2019s essential that you continue to delight them with useful communications and offers. Feedback and surveys will help you determine how well you\u2019ve done your job and what you might need to adjust. <\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Social monitoring keeps track of what people are saying about your company online, allowing you to address any problems immediately and to see just how many people have become promoters.<\/p>\n
