Inbound Marketing Series – How to Use Social Media As Part of Your Inbound Marketing Strategy

Inbound Marketing is described as – promoting a company through its blogs, video, eBooks, eNewsletters, Podcasts, case studies, whitepapers, SEO, physical products, social media, and other forms of content marketing which serve to attract interested customers through the different stages of the sales cycle.

Ok – so in this video, the boys and I talk about using social media to further your inbound marketing plan. You can also check Fanexplosion.de website.  In all efforts of being straight to the point and not beating around the bush, I’m going to give you one of the best marketing ideas to get free social media traffic to your website so you can educate them and grow your list at the same time.

Now I do want to add one caveat! Please, please, make sure that your content is entertaining to some degree. Meaning, if it remotely has an entertainment value to it, people will pay attention longer. Hey, we all want to be entertained, right? Anywho, here’s the scoop!

First, create a video or an image post. I personally like video. Remember, if it’s remotely entertaining, it can really get some attention.

Second, when writing the content, only tease the information on which you are speaking. On the social media medium, you only want to whet the appetite so you can send them to the landing page that has more content, or the full range of content.

Third, add a “jump URL” to the actual landing page. This is what I was alluding to in the second point. Here you want them to view the full extent of the content, as well as, get nosy and start snooping around looking at other stuff you have to offer on your website. Believe it or not, if you content is good, they’re going to check out other posts you’ve put up about the subject matter.

Forth, make sure you have a call-to-action (CTA) on “that” landing page somewhere. Take the opportunity to get them to opt-in for some soft or hard offer they can get right away. This way, it’s a win-win for both of your; they get something they want, you offer, and you get something you want, their name and email at the very least.

Fif” (I know it’s “fifth), and this should go without saying but I’m going to say it anyway, make sure you have a CRM to manage the contacts in the list you’re building. There – I said it!!!

Well, here’s how you can tell if an inbound marketing strategy would benefit you and your organization. Go to – https://directbusinessmarketing.com/vmc/. There you will find Direct Business Marketing’s Virtual Marketing Consultation.

Inbound Marketing Series – Why This Is A Good Marketing Strategy For Small Businesses

Inbound Marketing is described as – promoting a company through its blogs, video, eBooks, eNewsletters, Podcasts, case studies, whitepapers, SEO, physical products, social media, and other forms of content marketing which serve to attract interested customers through the different stages of the sales cycle.

Typically, the top brass at Direct Business Marketing enjoys making videos and sharing those videos on their company’s blog, as well as, social media. It’s been proven to get the best results for them as part of their content marketing strategy. However, this may not be entirely true for you depending on how your audience likes to receive their information.

Other content marketing pieces for a complete inbound marketing strategy include the use of longer video formats such as webinars. About once a quarter, the team will schedule a webinar that is typically 45 to 60 minutes. This allows the team to expound on a subject for a longer duration, therefore, delivering even more juicy content.

There’re a lot of buzz going on right now in the area of inbound marketing. And if you’ve had your ear to the ground, you’d find that inbound marketing, or even content-driven marketing, can do wonders for any small business.
