Inbound marketing is the practice of "getting found" by customers who are already searching for what you offer. This involves using the Internet, social media, blogs and technology to create, optimize, publish and promote content so that searchers will find your business instead of your competitors.
Unlike traditional outbound marketing methods, inbound efforts are cost-effective, measurable and focus on building long term assets. The basic components of the strategy are:
Get Found - is all about getting your best customers to find you. When they are searching for information, solutions or companies, they find your website, your content, your people, your products, etc.
Convert - getting found is great, but we are marketing for lead generation so visitors must convert to leads and then leads to sales.
Analyze & Repeat - since inbound marketing efforts are measurable, we are constantly in a state of continual improvement. Even small incremental improvements in key areas can result in big results.
