We’d like to think we give you good, honest, tongue in cheek approach to our Work
We’re also a HubSpot Gold partner
Which basically means we’re pretty good with the tool and not too shabby with inbound marketing
So, what the hell is inbound?
Whether you’re ready or not, marketing has already been disrupted.
People no longer want to be interrupted, broadcast to or shouted at.
Traditional marketing is broken
Think about how you consume media
How do you interact with brands?
Do you fast forward ads on Sky Plus?
How many newsletters are you subscribed to? How many do you actually read?
How many of you know about the TPS? Or Even the CTPS?
To attract customers, marketers have to give them something they love.
And so enters Inbound…
Inbound marketing is a holistic, data-driven approach to marketing that attracts individuals to your brand and converts them to lasting customers… essentially, it draws people in, gives them things they actually want or value, and converts them to customers.
What makes inbound different?
It’s not interruptive
It communicates with people in a way that works for them
We’re not spamming people
Most importantly, it’s helpful
When you use inbound marketing, customers come to you…
Genuinely, that’s not bullsh*t.
Inbound marketing turns strangers into customers and promoters of your business.
Inbound marketing is all about content:
Blogs
Interactive tools
Photos and infographics
E-books, presentations and webinars (sorry to ruin the magic for anyone who didn’t realise their part of our inbound process now…)
Video and podcasts
Blogs
And it’s about context…
Having he right content
In the right place
At the right time
Your marketing becomes relevant and helpful to your customers
It’s not interuptive!
Inbound is multi-channel by nature
You’re approaching people where they want to be contacted
In channels they want to be contacted in
So what does the inbound funnel look like?
It starts with getting traffic (SEO, social and any other means of creating your content)
We use things like calls to actions, landing pages and forms to turn that traffic into leads
Once we’ve got leads, we use tools like automated emails to help convert them to customers (also helps to generate some geat lead intelligence for your sales team)
Inbound is effective.
54% more leads are generated through inbound than outbound.
Inbound costs 61% less than outbound.
Inbound costs less than any outbound marketing channel.
Inbound is the future of marketing.
