Our generation hates waiting. They will be in a conversation with a friend about how the phone cover desperately needs a change, and without a second thought, they will start looking at the available options on the internet.

What Is An Inbound Methodology, And How Can You Use It In Your Branding Strategy?

“The best leads are those who come to your brand and not the ones you approach.”

With the perfect inbound methodologies, you can attract leads from every step of their buying journey to your business. Almost 92.7% of companies have shown a massive inflow of leads after adopting this SEO tactic.

Let us first understand the four stages of this methodology:

  1. Attract: When your target audience is surfing through Google or scrolling on social networks, they discover you with the help of the quality content you generate.
  2. Convert: Here, you ask your website visitors to take action. It can be subscribing to your email list or following you on social media. At this stage, they have entered your sales funnel.
  3. Close: At this stage, you pitch your actual offer. Once they buy it, the sales loop is closed. In between the convert and close stage, nurture your audience by pushing out engaging content.
  4. Delight: Finally, after you have made the sales, you need to guide your buyers on how to best use your product or service to help them reach their goals. The greater the customer satisfaction, the more they are likely to make more purchases from your brand.

Now that you have gained a fair understanding of how the entire process works, read on applying SEO.

What is The Role Of SEO In This Entire Process?

Do you know the difference between “interruption marketing” and ” inbound marketing”? The first one distracts the customers from what they are doing to pull their attention towards the brand, for example, pop-ups, video ads, outbound sales calls, etc. These tactics are annoying and usually don’t work for rational customers.

The latter organically attracts and engages the audience with purposeful content when they search for that type of content. It uses value-packed and ethical methods like thought leadership, community building, blogging, content creation and marketing, SEO and PPC, etc., to generate premium quality leads that are bound to sell.

SEO can help with so many aspects of inbound marketing, such as:

  • Content optimization to generate better and more traffic leading to higher quantity and quality of leads.
  • Create more engagement by boosting the performance of social networks.
  • Build a connection with higher authority networks through link building so that you can get a fair share of their premium quality engagement and leads.

Three Actionable Content And Design Strategies For Your Website To Rank Higher On The Search Engine

There is no standard formula for this, but you can still keep these tips in mind for the probability of a better ranking:

Bombard With Value Initially

If you are constantly throwing ads and sales pitches at your website visitors, it’s a major turn-off for both your audience and Google. So, first of all, make sure your content adds value to your user. And only then, pitch your offer.

Make Sure Your Images Don’t Have Embedded Keywords

Search engines cannot read your images. So if you include your most important keywords or content in your pictures, the search engine automatically interprets your content to be of lower quality: place keyword-rich and higher-value content only in the form of text for better ranking.

Make Use Of Sitemaps

This one is important if you are planning to launch a new website for your brand. Sitemaps will help search engines analyze how your site is structured and how the content flows. Your audience will also be able to navigate through the pages better.

Optimize Your Posts And Campaigns

Optimize your social media bio, and profile, both organic and paid content using relevant hashtags. It will increase your profile’s chances of discovering potential leads, and engagement rates and website traffic will also go up.

Eight Creative Ways In Which You Can Combine Social Media And Press Releases To Create Buzz Around Your Brand

Press releases are no more just about traditional media coverage. Millennials’ ever-increasing social media consumption has made it easier to score some positive press for your brand.

Here are nine actionable strategies that you can use for your business:

Guest Blogging

If your brand can offer high-quality guest blogs with the perfect pitch and fresh, value-adding content, the industry exposure can be massive (if these blogs are published on well-known websites). You can tap into a whole new range of potential leads altogether. The credibility you gain from the backlinks on these websites is unbelievable.

LinkedIn Posting By Brand Employees

It is one of those rarest strategies that can be a goldmine if done right. If you are a B2B company, nothing can spread the word about your new services, products, or milestones than well-written LinkedIn posts. Ask the people in the leadership positions of your brand and the C-level employees to share meaningful content, engage, and interact on this platform representing the brand. It adds a personal touch which people are more likely to respond to than a post from a brand.

Influencer Marketing

Millennials and Gen Zs are going crazy over influencers, content creators, etc. Nothing will convince a person to buy a product or service more than their favorite creator or celebrity pitching it to them. You can approach trending brands, influencers, etc., in your niche (micro-influencers will have fewer followers, but massive engagement generates the best results) to promote your brand in exchange for paid sponsorships, freebies, etc.

Launch An Ambassador Program

The Ambassador program is the hyped-up version of influencer marketing. Ask more and more people who are in love with your brand to promote your products and services. In return, you can offer them discount codes, free offers, commission fees, and other perks. People often scroll on social sites like Instagram, Pinterest, etc., to see what people are talking about your brand. Positive reviews by brand ambassadors lead to higher sales.

Tweet Frequently And Engage With Your Brand Followers, Publishers, And Journalists

Stop cold pitching to journalists! Add value. Share their articles on Twitter by tagging them. You can even help them out in their tweets when they are asking for sources or information. Try to maintain regular conversations and engagement to build a relationship rather than purely promotional pitches.

Have A Reputation Management Strategy Ready

People often call them out on adverse incidents or flood the platform with negative comments for even the most popular and loved brands. In such situations, it is crucial that your brand holds itself accountable, acknowledges the blunder, and gives a well-curated, positive response.

Create A Trend Engaging Hashtags

Whether your brand wants to support a good cause or highlight a recent achievement such as a hit product launch, a hashtag trend conveys the message perfectly. Relevant hashtags can help your brand followers so that they feel a sense of community or be a part of your marketing strategies. So you cannot miss out on this strategy.

Build Genuine Relationships With People

If your customers post any queries, complaints, or comments online, reply to them as soon as possible. They should feel heard. If any person positively speaks about or engages with your brand, appreciate them and create buzz around that comment. Encourage people to interact with your brand by tweeting interesting questions or catchy Instagram polls.
