A Trade Show Tactic That Should Be Applied To Your Website

If I had a nickel for every free swag item I got at trade shows, I would be writing this from a beach with an umbrella-straw drink in hand. Can you relate? You know you can!!! How did I get pulled into those trade show booths and listen to the marketing folks for those companies for 10 minutes, "earning" my free swag? Some sort of CALL TO ACTION!!!! That's right, like a small child chasing a butterfly, I saw or heard a big CTA and there I was, chasing down the perceived value. Next thing I knew, I was learning all about the butterfly's value and what it could do for me or my clients. Your website needs to steal that tactic right off the trade show floor. You need to have a strong value offer (CTA) in multiple places, so your website visitors chase that butterfly until they are sitting in your email marketing list or CRM and become leads. The key difference is that your website can provide these visitors with valuable content that will help solve their problems and challenges instead ...

Why Do Your Clients/Customers Buy From You?

Reason 1:______________________________ Reason 2:______________________________ Reason 3:______________________________ If I had to guess I'd say you listed things like your level of service, your history of quality and reliability and your willingness to do whatever it takes to make your clients/customers fully satisfied. Those are all good reasons for someone to do business with you. Are those things that all of your new prospects know when they are looking for your product or service? In some cases a referral may provide those insights, but those aren't the prospects I'm talking about. Do the new clients you work with that have found your offering on their own know about these things? No. Most do not. Your website, advertisements and print collateral may try to convey those messages, but let's be honest. These new prospects only made a connection with you for 1 reason: THEY THOUGHT YOU COULD SOLVE ONE OF THEIR PROBLEMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's right. Initially, they weren't at all ...

Are You Looking for Pennies or Benjamins With Your Inbound Marketing?

If you're reading our blog, you probably have a decent idea of what inbound marketing is? Don't worry, if you don't we won't be mad at you. To keep it simple, inbound marketing is generating customers by ensuring that you're being found when that person is looking for your product, service, etc. With inbound marketing you'll gain the attention of these individuals through mediums such as search engines or social media and then your website will guide them through the process of eventually turning into a conversion (lead, sale, sign-up). It's different from "interruption marketing" in which you just throw your advertising out there for everyone to see and hope that someone bites.
