This document provides an overview of inbound marketing, including its philosophy, methodology, and tools. The philosophy is that inbound marketing focuses on creating educational content to attract potential customers to a website rather than interrupting them with ads. The methodology involves attracting website visitors with content, converting them into leads by gathering contact information, closing leads into customers through email nurturing, and delighting customers to become brand promoters. Key tools include blogging, social media, search engine optimization, landing pages, forms, email automation, and customer relationship management integrations.

Social media & its role in marketing - Grape5Grape5
The explosion of social media websites and its growing importance in marketing communications have given birth to the practice of social media marketing. Social media marketing programs usually center on efforts to create content that attracts attention and encourages readers to share it with their social networks. A brand’s corporate message spreads from user to user and presumably resonates because it appears to come from a trusted, third-party source, as opposed to the brand or company itself.

Your Go-To-Market is Killing Your Business, and You Don't Even Know ItHubSpot
Modern customers expect that it will be easy to learn about your product and buy it, but most of our go-to-markets do the opposite. We ask people to fill out long forms, we build complex qualification rules, we make it tough for prospects to talk to someone right now. In short, we put up barriers that solve for our companies instead of solving for our customers.
At HubSpot, we’re mid-way through transforming our go-to-market to be customer centric. Learn what’s worked for us, what hasn’t, and what we’re building.

Here's the hard truth about marketing: your customers are better at it than you. Over the past decade, marketers perfected content creation, but as a result, things got a lot more competitive for businesses and a lot more crowded for buyers. So while creating content is still your best and cheapest strategy, it should no longer be your only strategy. That's where your customers come in. Learn more.
According to a recent report from Ernst & Young GmbH, both the number of funding rounds for startups in Germany and the overall value of those rounds hit record levels in the first six months of 2017. That tracks with what we’ve found in HubSpot research as well. We recently commissioned a survey of consumers living and/or working in the Berlin metro area, and found that the tech scene there is evolving quickly – 95 percent of Berliners see the number of technology jobs in the city growing, and 90 percent say Berlin also offers access to the technology and digital talent needed to grow a tech company. With Berlin offering the highest post-grad monthly salary for the European tech sector (3,112 euros per month, on average), it’s no surprise that the city has become a hub for fast-growing tech companies. And as of today, HubSpot is the latest to call the city home.

Inbound Recruiting: Hire Top Talent By Thinking Like a MarketerHubSpot
The world of recruiting has changed. Now, employers need to take an inbound approach to how they attract and engage with job seekers by using personalized marketing strategies.
What's a Growth Stack? And why you should build one. HubSpot
It starts with a single problem. It always does. Maybe you need a few more leads to hit your number this month. Maybe you finally outgrew a system of spreadsheets. Maybe your boss challenged you to get more accurate with your reporting. So, you signed up for a piece of software to help you solve the problem and un-officially started building out your tech stack. Without a strategic approach, adding tool after tool can lead you down a dangerous path. Get more strategic about your software and don't just build any old stack, build a Growth Stack.
The lack of visible female role models is pervasive in the tech industry, particularly on Wikipedia, where just under 17% of Wikipedia biographies were on women. That's why HubSpot wrote fourteen Wikipedia entries for remarkable women in tech to help inspire young women to reach positions at the highest levels of STEM.
Buyers no longer use voicemails and emails from strangers to learn about products. This information is online, whenever buyers are interested. This SlideShare presentation show sellers how to connect in a meaningful way by starting conversations around the buyer’s plans, goals and challenges.

Modern Prospecting Techniques for Connecting with Prospects (from Sales Hacke...HubSpot
Sales is a difficult world to be in because buyers aren't putting up with salespeople anymore. Instead of helping and building relationships, sales reps are still focused on closing prospects - even when they aren't ready to buy! So buyers ignore them. Because of that, even great sales reps would be lucky to get on the phone with someone.
While buyers have evolved and become more sophisticated, sales reps and training programs have been slow to adapt to that change.

Search Engine Marketing - Competitor and Keyword researchETMARK ACADEMY
Over 2 Trillion searches are made per day in Google search, which means there are more than 2 Trillion visits happening across the websites of the world wide web.
People search various questions, phrases or words. But some words and phrases are searched
more often than others.
For example, the words, ‘running shoes’ are searched more often than ‘best road running
shoes for men’
These words or phrases which people use to search on Google are called Keywords.
Some keywords are searched more often than others. Number of times a keyword is searched
for in a month is called keyword volume.
Some keywords have more relevant results than others. For the phrase “running shoes” we
get more than 80M relevant results, whereas for “best road running shoes for men” we get
only 8.
The former keyword ‘running shoes’ has way more competition from popular websites to
new and small blogs, whereas the latter keyword doesn’t have that much competition. This
search competition for a keyword is called search difficulty of a keyword or keyword
difficulty.
In other words, if the keyword difficulty is ‘low’ or ‘easy’, there won’t be any competition
and if you target such keywords on your site, you can easily rank on the front page of Google.
Some keywords are searched for, just to know or to learn some information about something,
that’s their search intention. For example, “What shoe size should I choose?” or “How to pick
the right shoe size?”
These keywords which are searched just to know about stuff are called informational
keywords. Typically people who are searching this type of keywords are top of a Conversion
funnel.
Conversion funnel is the journey that search visitors go through on their way to an email
subscription or a premium subscription to the services you offer or a purchase of products
you sell or recommend using your referral link.
For some buyers, research is the most important part when they have to buy a product.
Depending on that, their journey either widens or narrows down. These types of buyers are
Researchers and they spend more time with informational keywords.
Conversion is the action you want from your search visitors. Number of conversions that you
get for every 100 search visitors is called Conversion rate.
People who are at different stages of a conversion funnel use different types of keywords.

2. 1 WHAT IS INBOUND MARKETING?
2 THE PHILOSOPHY: WHY INBOUND WORKS.
3 THE METHODOLOGY: HOW INBOUND WORKS.
4 THE TOOLS: A PLAYBOOK THAT WORKS.
5 ADDITIONAL RESOURCES.
CONTENTS.
4. Instead of buying ads, buying email
lists, or cold calling, inbound
marketing focuses on creating
educational content that pulls
people toward your website where
they can learn more about what
you sell on their own accord.
WHAT IS INBOUND MARKETING?
5. INBOUND IS AN APPROACH TO MARKETING
THAT REACHES TODAY’S CONSUMER.
Understand what
content pulls your
buyers through the
sales funnel, and use
that context to
personalize your
marketing at scale.
Get found by qualified
leads online with
content (website
pages, blog articles,
social messages)
optimized for search
and social media.
6. 1. Inbound as a philosophy
(the “WHY?”);
2. Inbound as a methodology
(the “HOW?”); and
3. Inbound as a tool set
(the “PLAYBOOK”).
INBOUND MARKETING CAN BE UNDERSTOOD
IN THREE WAYS:
TOOL SET
9. Inbound marketing is a philosophy
based on the truth that consumers
buy differently today than they did 10
years ago.
INBOUND AS A PHILOSOPHY.
10. PRE-INTERNET.
• Buyer: Relatively
uninformed.
• Buyer Journey: Linear.
• Marketing Playbook:
Interrupt (cold calls and
advertising).
THINK ABOUT IT.
TODAY.
• Buyer: Well-informed.
• Buyer Journey: Fluid and
random. Starts with Google.
• Marketing Playbook:
Thought leadership through
content creation.

• Marketing Playbook:
Thought leadership through

12. There are three major reasons
why consumers are skeptical
about brands, and why
interruptive advertising and
cold calling aren’t nearly as
effective as they once were …
HOW DID THIS TRANSFORMATION TAKE
PLACE?
3
13. 1. The Proliferation of Media:
The media landscape has
become insanely cluttered.
There’s a magazine, TV
channel, radio station, and a
gajillion websites for every
conceivable interest.
WHY INTERRUPTION DOESN’T WORK:
REASON NUMBER ONE.
14. The media landscape
grew to include more
channels over time, and
each channel eventually
became its own
advertising medium.
15. Let’s try to comprehend
just how cluttered the
media landscape is to
illustrate how much
advertising there is ...
16. This is a simplified
timeline of the
appearance of
advertising in major
communication
channels.
17. Not only has the media
landscape grown by
type; each type has
grown exponentially by
volume.
18. • In 1920, there was 1 radio station. In 2011, there were 14,700.
• In 1946, America had 12 broadcasting TV stations. In 2011,
there were over 1,700.
• In 1998 (over 15 years ago!), the average consumer saw or
heard 1 million marketing messages – almost 3,000 per day.
• In 2014, there are 1,500 stories competing to show up in your
personal Facebook News Feed at any given moment.
THE PROLIFERATION OF MEDIA.
20. 2. A History of Deceptive
Advertising: Consumers are
accustomed to false claims
and deceit in advertising, so
even when clever ads are
seen by consumers, they’re
thought to be dishonest.
WHY INTERRUPTION DOESN’T WORK:
REASON NUMBER TWO.
According to the 2012 Edelman Trust
Barometer, 63% of consumers need to
hear company claims 3-5x before they’ll
actually believe them!
22. 3. Technology Empowered the
Consumer: Consumers gained
access to tools and information
that enabled them to dodge
interruptive brand messages
and instead seek out
information when they’re ready.
WHY INTERRUPTION DOESN’T WORK:
REASON NUMBER THREE.
23. VCRs.
Caller ID.
DVRs.
The Do Not Call list.
Spam software.
Broadband internet.
Smartphones.
Social media.
This
changed
everything.
24. By aligning the content you publish
with your customer’s interests, you
can earn permission to market to
prospects that you can convert into
leads, close into customers, and
delight to the point they come
promoters of your brand.
THAT’S WHY PERMISSION BECAME MORE
EFFECTIVE THAN INTERRUPTION.
25. There are several major
themes of inbound,
permission-based
marketing. Let’s talk
about them.
26. You create targeted content that
answers your customer's basic
questions and needs, and you share
that content far and wide.
CONTENT CREATION.
27. You recognize that people go
through stages as they interact with
your company, and that each stage
requires different marketing actions.
LIFECYCLE MARKETING.
28. As you learn more about your leads
over time, you can better
personalize your messages to their
specific needs.
PERSONALIZATION & CONTEXT.
29. Inbound marketing is multi-channel
by nature because it approaches
people where they are, in the
channel where they want to interact
with you.
A MULTI-CHANNEL PRESENCE.
30. Your publishing and analytics tools
all work together like a well-oiled
machine, allowing you to focus on
publishing the right content in the
right place at the right time.
INTEGRATION.
31. • Building trust, not skepticism
among your prospects.
• Being loved, not ignored by your
customers.
• Outsmarting, not outspending
your competitors.
IN SUMMARY, INBOUND MARKETING IS
ABOUT ...
33. The inbound philosophy is backed by a
methodology that helps brands attract,
convert, close, and delight visitors, leads
and customers through a variety of
channels such as social media, blogging,
SEO, landing pages, forms, and email.
THE METHODOLOGY.
37. HOW TO UNDERSTAND THE INBOUND
METHODOLOGY GRAPHIC.
Along the top are the four
actions (Attract, Convert,
Close, Delight) companies
must take in order to obtain
visitors, leads, and customers.
38. HOW TO UNDERSTAND THE INBOUND
METHODOLOGY GRAPHIC.
Along the bottom are the tools
companies use to accomplish
these actions.
Note: Note the tools are listed under the
action where they first come into play, but
that’s not the only place they’re applicable!
Several tools, like email, can be essential
in several stages of the methodology.
40. You want to attract people that will
potentially become leads. Attract
your ideal customer or buyer
persona by creating content that’s
valuable and easy for them to find.
STEP 1: ATTRACT STRANGERS AND TURN
THEM INTO WEBSITE VISITORS.
42. Once you’ve got visitors to your
site, the next step is to convert
those visitors into leads by
gathering their contact information.
In order to get this valuable
information, you need to offer
something up in return (ex: ebook).
STEP 2: CONVERT WEBSITE VISITORS INTO
LEADS.
44. Once you’ve attracted the right
visitors and converted the right
leads, you need to transform those
leads into customers with targeted,
automated email nurturing and
social media interaction.
STEP 3: CLOSE LEADS INTO CUSTOMERS
THROUGH LEAD NURTURING.
46. Using context and personalization
to deliver tailored messages,
continue to engage with, delight,
and (hopefully) upsell your current
customer base into happy
promoters of your company.
STEP 4: DELIGHT CUSTOMERS TO TURN
THEM INTO PROMOTERS OF YOUR BRAND.
47. Now that we’ve covered
the methodology, we’re
ready to dig deeper into
the tools you need to
get visitors (traffic),
leads, and customers.
49. Tools to attract strangers to your
site include:
• Blogging
• Social Media
• Keyword Optimization
• Site Pages

50. We’re going to take a
moment to emphasize
the importance of
blogging because it’s
that important ...
52. The average company that blogs
generates:
• 55% more website visitors.
• 97% more inbound links.
• 434% more indexed pages.
SERIOUSLY. BLOGGING WORKS.

55. Blogging isn’t the only
tool that effectively
attracts customers to
you, though.
56. You must share remarkable
content and valuable information
on the social web, engage with
your prospects, and put a human
face on your brand.
YOU NEED TO BE ACTIVE ON SOCIAL MEDIA
SITES, TOO.
57. You need to carefully, analytically
pick keywords, optimize your
pages, create content, and build
links around the terms your ideal
buyers are searching for. (Psst!
HubSpot’s software gives you SEO
advice as you type).
YOU SHOULD CREATE CONTENT AROUND
TARGETED KEYWORDS AS WELL.
58. Search engines and users like
frequently updated websites, so
you need to transform your site
into a beacon of helpful, fresh,
and optimized pages to appeal to
your ideal buyers without having
to rely on IT.
KEEP YOUR WEBSITE FRESH WITH EASY-TO-
DEPLOY SITE PAGES.
60. Tools to convert visitors into leads
include:
• Calls-to-Action
• Landing Pages
• Forms
• Contacts Database
STEP 2: CONVERT WEBSITE VISITORS INTO
LEADS.

Visitors Leads
61. Calls-to-action (CTAs) are buttons
or links that encourage your
visitors to take action, like
“Download a Whitepaper” or
“Attend a Webinar.” If you don’t
have CTAs or if they aren’t enticing
enough, you won’t generate leads.
ENTICE YOUR VISITORS TO CLAIM AN OFFER
WITH CALLS-TO-ACTION.
62. When a website visitor clicks on a
CTA, they should then be sent to a
landing page where the offer in the
call-to-action is fulfilled, and where
the prospect submits information
that your sales team can use to
begin a conversation with them.
DRIVE VISITORS TO LANDING PAGES WHERE
THEY CAN BECOME LEADS.
63. In order for visitors to become
leads, they must fill out a form and
submit their contact information.
Optimize your form to make this
step of the conversion process as
easy as possible.
USE FORMS TO GET THE INFORMATION YOU
NEED ABOUT YOUR PROSPECTS.
64. Keep track of the leads you're
converting in a centralized
marketing database so you can
make sense out of every
interaction you’ve had with your
contacts – be it through email, a
landing page, or social media.
HOUSE ALL OF YOUR CONTACTS IN ONE
PLACE.
66. Tools to close leads into customers
include:
• Lead Scoring
• Email
• Marketing Automation
• Closed-Loop Reporting
STEP 3: CLOSE LEADS INTO CUSTOMERS
THROUGH LEAD NURTURING.

67. You’ve got contacts in your
system, but how do you know
which ones are ready to speak to
your sales team? Using a
numerical representation of the
sales-readiness of a lead takes the
guesswork out of the process.
USE LEAD SCORING TO DETERMINE WHICH
LEADS ARE READY FOR A SALESPERSON.
68. What if a visitor clicks on your CTA
and fills out a form on a landing
page to download a whitepaper,
but still isn’t ready to become a
customer? Nurture them with a
series of emails focused on useful,
relevant content until they’re ready.
SEND TARGETED EMAILS TO LEADS TO PULL
THEM THROUGH THE SALES FUNNEL.
69. If a visitor downloaded a
whitepaper from you in the past,
you might want to send that lead a
series of related emails. But if they
follow you on Twitter and visited
certain pages on your website, you
might want to tailor the messaging.
GO BEYOND EMAIL BY USING AUTOMATION
INFORMED BY CONTEXT AND LIFECYCLE.
70. Know which marketing efforts are
bringing in the best leads and
whether your sales team is
focused on the most qualified
leads by integrating with your
Customer Relationship
Management (CRM) system.
CLOSE THE LOOP BY INTEGRATING YOUR
MARKETING TOOLS WITH YOUR CRM.
71. What tools do you use
to turn customers into
repeat, happy
customers?
72. Tools to delight your customers
include:
• Smart Calls-to-Action
• Social Media
• Email and Marketing

marketing channels – from CTAs

74. Alas, we’re done with
the tools!
Here’s how the inbound
methodology and tools
all come together.
75. 1) ATTRACT: GET TRAFFIC
2) CONVERT: GET LEADS
3) CLOSE: GET CUSTOMERS
4) DELIGHT: ANALYZE & OPTIMIZE
Create blog content, search engine optimize (SEO)
that content, and promote it on social media sites.

accounts, and email to drive visitors to landing pages with
forms.
Send leads targeted, automated emails to drive them through your
buying cycle. Provide your sales team with lead intelligence for more
effective sales calls.
Analyze the success of your marketing campaigns, and determine which
