- Background on HubSpot – how long we’ve been around, what we do. Inbound marketing is about using marketing to bring potential customers to you, rather than having your marketing efforts fight for their attention. By creating content specifically designed to appeal to your dream customers, inbound attracts qualified prospects to your business and keeps them coming back for more. Major Themes: Content and distribution Lifecycle based marketing Personalization Multi channel All in one Integration
- Who am I and what do I do. Ads add on and what we are doing with Ads.
- This is the curve of advertising success … it shows that traditional ad campaigns, which are measured by clicks, are less effective than conversion focused campaigns. By doing ads in an inbound way, we are allowing our customers to be CONVERSION focused. This allows for closed loop reporting on ad campaigns, which significantly increases their ability to optimize all ads for the highest ROI. This approach is especially important for you, our agency partners, since quantifying ROI for your clients is critical.
