Inbound Marketing

Win and inspire customers with interesting content!

Strategies, content & tools: Attract prospects, generate leads, win customers & inspire with clear benefit messages and compelling content!

Outbound marketing is a thing of the past: traditional lead generation techniques like printed advertisements, address purchasing and trade shows have been in decline for years. It’s a mistake to think you can generate new market potential through nothing but cold-calling, offline marketing campaigns and attending as many events as possible.

Outbound Marketing was yesterday – Inbound Marketing is now!

The fact is that the world of customer communication has changed. These days, businesses look for their own solutions to problems and challenges. They have clear expectations and they research which providers meet them the best.

This is why outbound marketing is turning into inbound marketing. Not the provider going to the customer, but the other way around. Quite simply, this means that businesses need to be found online by potential customers. This has implications for communication strategy. The focus is not on classical push marketing methods (such as mailing using purchased addresses, or telemarketing) but rather on creating high-quality content to increase recognition and understanding of your brand.

Businesses need to generate content which meets the actual needs of their target groups, and get it to them in a way that suits the channel and the recipient. In this way, they draw attention to themselves and lead their target group to the exact solutions and problems they’re actually looking for. In other words: by creating intelligent content, you almost automatically draw in enough inbound traffic, growing a base of fans and followers who will, in time, become satisfied customers. This is how communities of active, interested participants come to be.

Successful inbound marketing is distinguished by:

High-Quality Content

Consciously create content that addresses and answers your customers’ questions. Share this content with as many people as possible.

Lifecycle Marketing

Be aware that the interaction of customers with your company goes through different phases. Align your marketing activities and reach the “buying center” of your prospects in the “right” state of process.

Personalisation

Use the knowledge produced by your leads to align your offerings better with your customers’ specific needs. Communication that suits the recipient and the channel makes for greater, better interaction.

Multi-channel Management

Inbound Marketing makes use of the exact communication channels preferred by your potential target group.

Integration

Find the ideal way to join up your analytical tools with your content creation and marketing tools. This will put you in a position to communicate the right content at the right place and time.

Inbound Marketing: Turn online traffic into revenue

So with all this in mind, you can use intelligent, targeted and above all exciting content to inspire your customers’ thirst for knowledge. Encourage them to leave their mark on your company’s website. Give interested parties a concrete reason to act, in order to generate valuable leads. Provide the tools they need – a call to action, a contact form, online chat – and analyse your online traffic regularly.
