You don't just want any old traffic to your website, you want the right traffic. You want potential customers who have a passion for the area you operate in. To identify these people we create buyer personas, being holistic, semi-fictional representation of your ideal customers. Your buyer personas are the identities around whom your entire business is built. Here's how we use inbound marketing to attract them.

•  

• Blog posts tailored to answer the questions are buyer personas are asking online.

• Website pages optimized to attract buyer personas and convert them into leads.

• Social media posts designed to develop your brand voice and drive traffic to your best content.

It's not enough to just draw a new visitor to your site. The important part is to convert that visitor into a sales lead, by collecting their details through a form. To make that happen, you'll need an enticing offer in the form of value-added content, which appeals directly to your buyer persona. Here's how the conversion stage plays out.

•  

• A new visitor lands on your website, where they are greeted by a Call-to-Action button (see foot of the page) that promotes a value-added content offer. This might be in the form of an ebook, or whitepaper, or perhaps a live webinar.

• Upon clicking the Call-to-Action, the visitor is directed to a landing page. It's there you place a form to capture their details, which must be filled out in order to collect the offer. The moment the form is filled your visitor becomes a lead and enters the sales funnel.

• The final step sees the lead directed to a Thank You page, where they will be given the offer promised.

Close

So you've attracted your ideal customers and converted them into leads.  Now you need to transform those leads into paying customers. These are the tools we use to close a deal and refine our methods at every stage.

•  

• Segmented, personalized email campaigns that nurture customers through their buyer's journey.

• Marketing Automation tailored to the lifecycle stage of each lead.

• Analytics to provide closed-loop marketing ROI, generating weekly reports that speak to our successes and where to focus in the future.

The buyer's journey continues after a deal is done. Inbound marketers should set out to delight their closed customers to the point where they want to promote your brand, and potentially serve as evangelists, afterward. Return business is never bad either, along with the opportunity to upsell to an existing customer or client. Here are a few methods we use to delight our customers at Hüify.

• A Calls-to-Action Strategy that changes based on the lifecycle stage of a customer and their specific buyer persona. We create a customized experience for every visitor to your website.

• Social Media deployed to provide customers with real-time customer service.

• Email and Marketing Automation provides existing customers with outstanding content when they need it, as well as introducing new products and features that will benefit them. And it's far less intrusive than a sales call.
