| Inbound Marketing Guide |
What does the term “inbound marketing” mean to a small
business? What is the difference between
inbound marketing and outbound marketing strategies? Experts say all marketing tactics revolve
around wanting to increase web traffic, visitors, leads, conversions, buyers,
fans and customers.
Inbound marketing wants the same things as now traditional
outbound marketing; the difference is not what a business wants from marketing
but how it goes about wanting it. Inbound marketing is about getting permission
to contribute to the “awareness” and “consideration” steps in a buyers funnels
while outbound marketing is focused on interrupting (via ads, CPC, direct mail, sales calls)
these same steps.
Both inbound and outbound marketing complement each other
and even the inbound marketing king – Hubspot uses outbound marketing. Outbound marketing activities like lead
generation and lead nurturing using sales people is becoming a forgotten art
with too many companies relying solely on inbound marketing to drive the sales
engine.
That said, inbound marketing has become the main driver in
getting a business into buyers awareness and consideration steps when looking
for a product mainly due to the non-interruption aspect of inbound marketing.
Here are eleven tips in using inbound marketing to attract
people to a business; inbound marketing is more about sharing than selling,
helping not hyping. The great thing
about inbound marketing is that it works so well for any business regardless of
size in any market. A word of caution is
inbound marketing does take a bit of time to get going, however, once the
results start happening they are better qualified and less expensive than
harder outbound tactics.
The foundation stone of inbound marketing is “Content” and
publishing quality content alone will go a long way to increase traffic and
leads for a business or website. But
there is more to inbound marketing than publishing content; inbound marketing
also includes social selling, article sharing, social networks conversations,
social media influencers, article seeding, forum participation and chat.
