9. Push marketing
• Push marketing (also called outbound marketing) is when a
brand takes steps to initiate an response from the consumer,
whether it’s from a billboard, direct mail or through a pop up
ad on a website. Benefits of push marketing include:
Creates brand awareness – by using broad marketing
techniques, push marketing reaches a large number of
consumers and passerbys (virtual or otherwise)
Control – because the brand is pushing out the message
onto the consumer, the communication is one way – and
the brand creates the message.
Conformity – all messages can look exactly the same
through print, email blasts and billboards. The brand has a
consistent and recognizable presence.

10. Pull marketing
• Pull marketing (also called inbound marketing) relies brands jumping
into conversations already taking place about the brand, through digital
media and search engine optimization. In order for pull marketing to
work for your brand, consumers must be searching for topics related to
your service. Examples include: Google AdWords, SEO blogs/websites,
and Google sponsored ads. Benefits of pull marketing include:
Communication - since the conversation is taking place online,
brands have the opportunity for two-way communication. A
consumer may have a question, types it into Google, and the
sponsored ad on Google pops up first with the brand to answer the
question. A simple like on Facebook, Tweet or pin.
No Chase – Consumers come to the brand – there is no sending out
mailers or listsrvs. Instead, the brand plants the seeds and waits for
the consumers. (If you build it, they will come.)
Community – Through blogging, websites and social media, pull
marketing encourages narrative and community between brand and
consumer.

12. Pull or Push
1. Push Marketing: These are the channels that we use to
“Push” our message out to our customers and prospects. We
often use “Problem Identification” to help our target
understand why they need us and to build enough interest that
we can begin to have a conversation and hopefully a sale
2. Pull Marketing: These are the new “Social Media” channels,
the internet, your website and such. Your prospect identifies
their own problem “Problem Recognition” and then starts
looking for a solution, they go to blogs, forums, your website
and more to learn and research their decision long before you
ever hear from them! The question is are you actively
“Pulling” them towards you with a presence in those channels
that your customers are in!?
