Inbound Marketing

Inbound marketing is the way you get the clients you are really looking for.  You create value for your clients from the start.  You nurture your relationship to prospective clients before they ever reach out to you.  And most importantly, you give them a reason to reach out.

The lead generation tactics of the past simply don’t work today.  Paid search can get you seen, but not always get you the customers you want.  Advertising in its old form is incredibly expensive, is essentially dead and can actually drive people away from you.  Why do you think so many Tampa media companies want to lock you into a full year contract?

Inbound marketing is the way that consumers in the Tampa Bay area today want to start business relationships with. It positions you as the expert.  It helps them solve problems. It gives them information they need to make good decisions. Then, and only then, it asks to form a relationship. In providing value first, prospective clients see you as a trusted advisor and not someone out to “sell” them.  When prospects come to you, the sales process is easier for both parties.

Inbound marketing keeps you from being a commodity and selling on price.  It allows you to dominate your competition in the local community.  It assures you will be on a customer’s short list for selecting goods and services.

Search engine marketing gets you noticed so that prospective clients can “see” you, but if you want real growth for the long term you need inbound marketing.

What’s Involved in a Successful Inbound Marketing Approach?

First, most businesses don’t take an inbound marketing approach because frankly, it’s not easy.  There is more commitment and you actually have to care about your customers.  Unfortunately, some of your competitors see customers as dollar signs and don’t really care about them.  However, that’s great for you and can help you rise to the first pick in and around Tampa.

You need strategy and a plan of action for smart inbound marketing. The systems involve lots of planning, effort and actual “getting things done”.  Often, this is why so many business start the process, do it half way, then wonder why it didn’t work.
