Interruption marketing doesn’t work any more

3. First Ask the Critical Questions
• What is an average sale worth to you?
• Can you say your website has generated a single lead and sale?
• How many leads and sales might you be missing out on?
• In an ideal world, how much does your website and digital
marketing do for you?
• Are you willing to work and invest to create results?

6. Nothing is Free
• Inbound is just a tool, and only as good as the person using
it.
• Inbound marketing will not work overnight. (Usually great
results are seen between the 3-12 month time period)
• Inbound marketing requires time. (I tell everyone, the first 2
months require about 10 hours of dedication a week, and
then goes down as you get proficient with inbound.)
• Inbound marketing is a culture. To have success, you must
stay at it and be consistent and have buy-in.
• It’s amazing, but it’s NOT a magic pill.

24. Guys,
Had a refreshing and revolutionary experience yesterday. It was
a script of how it’s supposed to happen. Lead comes in from
someone in New Zealand. I follow up with one email then he
calls me. He’s been working with someone he didn’t trust, went
to Google then downloaded and read our entire buyers guide,
educated himself. He already was convinced I was the expert
and he wanted to work with me by the time I picked up the
phone, I didn’t have to sell myself at all. The funnel worked
exactly like it is supposed to. With very little effort, we just
narrowed down the models that will work for his budget and I will
be sending out a quote tomorrow. He has the funds, knows what
he needs, knows what refurbished means etc. Unless something
crazy happens I expect to have the deal signed early next
week. The snowball is cresting the hill.
Best Regards,

Convert tactics help you take the visitors you

27. Step 3: Analyze Tactics
Analysis is the critical third category of inbound
marketing tactics. Once you start attracting people
to your site with blogging, social media and SEO,
once you start converting those new website visitors
into leads and customers, you need to begin
analyzing your sales and marketing funnel and figure
out ways to make it more efficient.
You need to focus on

3. Goal Setting
