SIX TIPS FOR SUCCESSFUL
ONLINE MARKETING
The Benefits Of Bite-sized Content To Engage Busy Buyers
Online marketing is under heavy pressure to be all things to a target market in the ways that market wants them to be—right now. Instant marketing, on-demand pressure and today's culture of constant change impact not just the speed, but the quantity of content you need to create continuously to lift engagement.
There's no downtime anymore. Create a campaign, send it out, monitor real-time results, tweak your strategy, add new content to your website, blog, create webinars, podcasts and compelling events that engage buyers. Oh, and don't forget to give sales better conversational briefs, customer stories and buyer profiles that fit with those personas it took you painstaking hours to develop.
Whew. That's a lot of stuff. If I'd have gotten more specific, it'd be really scary.
What can really be disconcerting is when you put all that content you've worked so hard on out there and then you look at the brief amount of time your buyers spend reading it. Scanning has become an art form. People grab a bit here, a bit there and try to give themselves a crash course in intelligence gathering that will enable them to make graduate-level decisions about complex sales with the equivalent of a fourth-grade education. Not because they don't want to learn, but because time is scarce and the subject matter is not their expertise.
You need a strategy for putting all this work into a context that matches how your buyers access and use it. Not to mention your sales team.
Consider the following 6 contextual tips when developing your content and you'll see your level of engagement lift because you're matching buyers' needs.

The money is in the list. That's what today's marketers will tell you.
But that's a half truth. The money is in the responsive list.
The phone book is a great example of a list that is mostly worthless for marketing purposes. Yes, there's money to be had in that list, but the time and effort you'll expend trying to extract it could be put to better use labeing your catalogs.
You need a responsive list. You may have heard me talk in the past about creating a customer crack addiction. These are customers that are so excited about working with you, that they're almost addicted to what you have to say, and more importantly, |
