Marketing directors and other corporate marketers are intimately acquainted with the need for continuous new content to fuel their campaigns and maintain their relationship with their audience, and the centrality of a blog in supplying said content. As is so often the case, however, familiarity can breed contempt, and many people in your audience might simply be tired of the same old, same old when it comes to the content you're sending them.
But the rewards of a high-impact blog are undeniable: companies like Groove, HubSpot, and Net-Results have found that a high-quality blog can become the biggest single contributor to growing their earned audience and their sales leads.
Make no mistake, business blogging is not for the faint of heart. Knowledge of a product, service or even entire industry or profession is not, in and of itself, sufficient to effectively blog about it. Expertise does not necessarily a good storyteller make. And a successful business blogger is just that: A storyteller.

From Hope to Despair: The Top 10 Reasons Businesses Ditch SEO Tactics
Are you tired of seeing your business's online visibility plummet from hope to despair? When it comes to SEO tactics, many businesses find themselves grappling with challenges that lead them to abandon their strategies altogether. In a digital landscape that's constantly evolving, staying on top of SEO best practices is crucial to maintaining a competitive edge.
In this blog, we delve deep into the top 10 reasons why businesses ditch SEO tactics, uncovering the pain points that may resonate with you:
1. Algorithm Changes: The ever-changing algorithms can leave businesses feeling like they're chasing a moving target. Search engines like Google frequently update their algorithms to improve user experience and provide more relevant search results. However, these updates can significantly impact your website's visibility and ranking if you're not prepared.
2. Lack of Results: Investing time and resources without seeing tangible results can be disheartening. The absence of immediate results often leads businesses to lose faith in their SEO strategies. It's important to remember that SEO is a long-term game that requires patience and consistent effort.
3. Technical Challenges: From site speed issues to complex metadata implementation, technical hurdles can be daunting. Overcoming these challenges is crucial for SEO success, as technical issues can hinder your website's performance and user experience.
4. Keyword Competition: Fierce competition for top keywords can make it hard to rank effectively. Businesses often struggle to find the right balance between targeting high-traffic keywords and finding less competitive, niche keywords that can still drive significant traffic.
5. Lack of Understanding of SEO Basics: Many businesses dive into the complex world of SEO without fully grasping the fundamental principles. This lack of understanding can lead to several issues:
Keyword Awareness: Failing to recognize the importance of keyword research and targeting the right keywords in content.
On-Page Optimization: Ignorance regarding crucial on-page elements such as meta tags, headers, and content structure.
Technical SEO Best Practices: Overlooking essential aspects like site speed, mobile responsiveness, and crawlability.
Backlinks: Not understanding the value of high-quality backlinks from reputable sources.
Analytics: Failing to track and analyze data prevents businesses from optimizing their SEO efforts effectively.
6. Unrealistic Expectations and Timeframe: Entrepreneurs often fall prey to the allure of quick fixes and overnight success. Unrealistic expectations can overshadow the reality of the time and effort needed to see tangible results in the highly competitive digital landscape. SEO is a long-term strategy, and setting realistic goals is crucial for success.

In the face of the news of Google beginning to remove cookies from Chrome (30m users at the time of writing), there’s no longer time for marketers to throw their hands up and say “I didn’t know” or “They won’t go through with it”. Reality check - it has already begun - the time to take action is now. The good news is that there are solutions available and ready for adoption… but for many the race to catch up to the modern internet risks being a messy, confusing scramble to get back to "normal"

11 Killer Lead Generation Tips For Professional Services Firms
1. 11 Killer Lead Generation Tips For
Professional Services Companies
2. INTRODUCTION
“LEADS ARE THE METRIC THAT, AS MARKETERS,
WE RELY ON. BECAUSE LEADS MEAN MONEY.”
- KIPP BODNAR
Wouldn’t it be awesome if you could make one big sale and have that revenue sustain your firm
forever? Of course it would, but that’s not realistic. In order to grow your professional services firm,
you need a steady stream of income and that requires a steady stream of leads.
Generating high quality leads is your most important objective. A successful lead generation engine
is what keeps your business funnel full of sales prospects. Curiously, only 2 in 10 business owners
are tracking the effectiveness of their inbound efforts. What’s up with that?
Listen, we get it, there are a lot of moving parts in lead generation campaigns and because of that it’s
often hard to gauge which parts needs some fine tuning. That’s why we’ve put together this guide
which will show you our top 11 Lead Generation Tips for Professional Services Companies.
First, let’s start with what goes into a best-in-class lead generation engine.
3. THE MECHANICS OF LEAD GENERATION
Before we dive into the 11 tips, we should first cover the mechanics of lead generation. The best lead generation
campaigns contain most, if not all, of these components. From a tactical perspective, a marketer needs four crucial
elements to make inbound lead generation happen. These include:
OFFER CALL-TO-ACTION LANDING PAGE FORM
An offer is a piece of
content that is perceived
high in value. Offers include
ebooks, whitepapers, free
consultations, coupons and
product demonstrations.
A call-to-action (CTA) is
either text, an image or a
button that links directly to a
landing page so people can
find and download your
offer.
A landing page, unlike
normal website pages, is a
specialized page that
contains information about
one particular offer, and a
form to download that offer.
You can’t capture leads
without forms. Forms will
collect contact information
from a visitor in exchange
for an offer.
4. #1 CREATE AN AMAZING TITLE
Brian Halligan, HubSpot CEO and co-founder, once said that “you can have a great offer with a bad title and no one will
download it. But if you have an amazing title, suddenly everyone wants it.” Yes - people do judge a book by it’s cover. If
your offer is a piece of content, such as a whitepaper, ebook, or presentation, put effort into creating an amazing title.
Look at the experiment below, an A/B test of an eBook title was conducted to see which one would perform better. The
original title “The Productivity Handbook for Busy Marketers” was changed to “7 Apps That Will Change the Way You Do
Marketing”. See the difference?
As you can see, the revised version outperformed the original by 776% at generating leads (first time submissions). Not
only that, but it resulted in more customers as well. If you’re struggling to come up with the perfect headline, try using
the Headline Analyzer Tool by Advanced Marketing Institute or read 7 Proven Headlines that Convert.
5. #2 CREATE OFFERS FOR BUYING STAGES
The most common offer I see on most websites is “Contact Us.” Sure, you want all your prospects to talk to sales, but
not everyone is ready. As you know, buyers are more likely to do their own research before even engaging with a sales
rep. And, every prospect is at a different stage of exploration. Some may need more education than others. That’s why
it’s important to develop different offers at different buying cycles.
Someone at the top of the buying cycle may be more interested in an informational piece like a guide or ebook, whereas
someone more committed at the bottom of the cycle might be more interested in a consultation or audit. You don’t need
to pick and choose; create offers for each phase, and include a primary and secondary CTA to these offers on various
pages throughout your site.
6. #3 AVOID CORPORATE GOBBLEDYGOOK
A professional image is necessary but you still want to avoid the dreaded corporate gobbledygook. What is gobbledygook you
ask? Great question.
These are jargon terms and phrases that have been over-used and abused rendering them meaningless (you’ll find them
mostly in the high-tech industry, but everyone is an offender at one point or another). These words are meant to add more
emphasis of a particular subject but instead they make your eyes roll.
Avoid these words when describing your offers
• Cutting edge
• Ground breaking
• Best of breed
• Mission critical
• Disruptive
• Next Generation
• Flexible
• Trusted advisor
• World Class
• Out of the box
7. #4 USE HIGH-VALUE OFFER FORMATS
Not all offers are created equal. Some “formats” of offers perform better than others at converting leads. For example,
what’s more valuable, a whitepaper or an ebook?
Below are the type of offers, in order of performance, that generate the most amount of leads.
It’s important to test different types of offers with your audience to determine what works for you. While ebooks score
high on our list, you may find that reports, videos or other formats do better.
• Ebooks or Guides
• Templates or Presentations
• Research & Reports
• Whitepapers
• Kits (multiple offers packaged together)
• Live Webinars
• On-demand Videos
• Blog (including offers in the nav or sidebar)
• Blog posts (if there is a CTA in the post)
• Middle-of-the-funnel offers: Demo Requests, Contact
Sales, RFP, Etc (more sales-ready offers).
8. #5 MAKE YOUR CTA VISIBLE
Calls-to-action do best “above the fold” - the space where your web page is viewable to the user without having to scroll
down. According to heat map analysis, anything “below the fold” will only be viewed by 50% of people who visit your
page. Doubling impressions on your CTAs can significantly increase your lead count.
Notice the placement of the
primary CTA on the Freshbooks
homepage. Two buttons for
“Try it Free for 30 Days” stand
out above the fold
9. #6 CLARITY > PERSUASION
Often times, marketers will put more focus on being clever than clear. Be crystal clear about what offer is in your CTA.
And be specific. If you’re giving away a free guide, say “Download our FREE guide to X.” If you’re hosting a free
webinar, say “Register for our FREE webinar on X.” X should clearly convey a compelling benefit of receiving the offer.
This is much more effective than “Download Now” or “Get a Free Article.” These simply aren’t specific enough.
Notice that this CTA is to promote a
free audit. There is little copy in this
CTA which indicates that it is
clickable.
10. #7 USE CONTRAST TO MAKE CTAs STAND OUT
A call-to-action is meant to stand out, so if your CTA blends in too much with your site design, no one will notice it. You want
as many eyeballs to land on that call-to-action as possible, so use contrasting colors to make the CTA stand out, and more
importantly, use design to make it clear it is a clickable call-to-action.
While Evernote has a
beautifully designed website,
the primary call-to-action for
their free trial is somewhat
buried because the button is
the same color as the green
background. It would be worth
testing to see that if a different
color - such as blue, red, or
orange - would result in more
clicks.
11. #8 LINK YOUR CTA TO A LANDING PAGE
This tip might seem minor, but it’s incredible how often businesses miss this opportunity. Calls-to-action are meant to
send visitors to a dedicated landing page where they receive a specific offer. Do not use CTAs to drive people to your
homepage. Even if your CTA is about your brand or product (and perhaps not an offer like a download), still send them
to a targeted landing page that is relevant to what they are looking for. If you have the opportunity to use a CTA, send
them to a page that will convert them into a lead.
This CTA for an eBook
and Toolkit drives
visitors directly to a
landing page from blog
posts, website and
social media posts.
12. #9 THANK YOU PAGES = CONVERSIONS
Even if someone completes a form on your website (thus they’ve converted as a lead), don’t stop there. Increasing
engagement is also a top priority for marketers so that prospects turn into loyal fans.
Once someone reaches a “thank you page,” the page that a visitor arrives on after completing a form, use that space as
an opportunity to promote more offers and content. For example, if a visitor that downloads Whittle & Partners’ eBook on
How To Build Culture of Accountability, he/she are invited to subscribe to the Whittle & Partners’ blog.
This simple landing page, which
invited visitors to subscribe to the
blog, realized a 30% conversion rate.
13. #10 BUILDING AN EFFECTIVE LANDING PAGE
Landing pages, are used to convert visitors into leads by completing a transaction or by collecting contact information
from them. Landing pages consist of:
A headline and (optional) sub-headline
A brief description of the offer
(Optional) supporting elements such
as testimonials or security badges
At least one supporting image
And most importantly, a form
to capture information
14. #11 MORE LANDING PAGES = MORE LEADS
According to a recent marketing benchmarks report, companies see a 55% increase in leads by increasing landing
pages from 10 to 15. The more content, offers, and landing pages you create, more opportunities to generate more
leads for your business.
15. CONCLUSION
Generating leads online has the power to transform your professional services firm. Using
great offers, calls-to-action, landing pages and forms - while promoting them in multi-channel
environments - can reduce your cost-per-lead while delivering higher quality prospects to
your sales team.
The basics herein are just the beginning. This guide contains many best practices for lead
generation to help bolster your conversion rates, but these tactics are only the tip of the
iceberg. Continue to tweak and test each step of your inbound lead generation process in an
effort to improve lead quality and increase revenue.
Now go, create high quality leads and propel your business forward!
