STEP 1: ATTRACT STRANGERS AND TURN THEM INTO WEBSITE VISITORS.
You want to attract people that will potentially
become leads. Attract your ideal customer or
buyer persona by creating content that’s
valuable to them and easy for them to find.
Make yourself findable, but don’t wait until they
find you. Include them in the content creation
process through interviews and surveys and by
creating content that your sales team will use
when they proactively reach out to prospects.

STEP 2: CONVERT WEBSITE VISITORS INTO LEADS.
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).

Turning Visitors into Leads
Create an offer
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.
Put it behind a landing page
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.
Measure every offer
Test every landing page
Turning Leads into Customers
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.
Know Their Interests
Collaborate with Prospects on Your Marketing
Interact via social
Use Context to Deliver the Right Content at the Right Time via the Right Channel
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.
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.
Nurture via your website
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.
