What is content- and inbound marketing?We give a gift to our potential customers – a gift of knowledge and inspiration. !

Inbound marketing is the format we’re using. It’s a state of mind. Instead of pushing content and information to potential clients, we let them find us. !

One inbound marketing tactic is to use content marketing. “Content marketing is a marketing technique of creating and distributing valuable, relevant and consistent content to attract and acquire a clearly defined audience.”
