7 Ways Growth Services Can Power Up Manufacturer Marketing

One of the most effective aspects of inbound marketing is that it encourages customers to come to you rather than you constantly (and possibly irrelevantly or inopportunely) reaching out to them. With that in mind, here are seven ways you can start engaging with future customers from the get-go:

• Turn Your Website into a Salesperson. Your website is more than an online business card with your business contact information. It's more than a glorified brochure. It's where prospects come to find business info and where customers turn for help and support.

• Identify Your Ideal Customers. Buyer personas are much lauded in the B2C world as a way to connect with customers on a more personal level. They are necessary for B2B sales as well.

• Map Your Buyer's Journey. Whether your contact is at the start of their journey (e.g. aware of their need), ready to close a deal, or somewhere in between can dramatically change the content you create and how you interact with them.

• Use Digital Content to Attract and Engage. According to Gartner, 80% of B2B sales interactions will occur in digital channels by 2025. Knowing how to create engaging and useful content is an essential skill for survival.

• Plan Effective Email Nurture Campaigns. Understanding when, why, and how to contact clients and leads can be the difference between maintaining your business relationship and condemning it to the digital trash bin.

• Use SEO to Outrank Your Competitors. Search Engine Optimization, or SEO, is critical to making sure your website appears at the top of search results. With most people limiting their exploration to the first few pages, you need to make sure your site is seen.

• Extend Your Reach with Targeted Advertising. Learn where your customers are online and attract them with your thought leadership content. Get reader's attention by helping them solve their business problems.
