How content turns into leads

Content marketing in a nutshell: answer the questions your buyers are already asking, and be the expert they call.

  1. Walk in their shoes

    What problem is your prospect facing right now that you can solve, and what would they search to fix it?

  2. Create the answer

    Articles, guides, and videos on how your industry operates, how common issues get solved, and a few tips.

  3. Get found

    Content optimized to rank on Google and shared where your audience spends time.

  4. Earn trust

    Prospects learn from you, see you know your stuff, and get the gentle nod that they can call you.

  5. Stay in touch

    A newsletter turns an email address into a relationship, so their next purchase is with you.

Why use content marketing?

When you have a process to tell your story and strategically tell the world about what you do, your prospects will start contacting you - instead of you having to call on them.

Traditional sales and marketing requires you to identify industries, verticals, segments, individual businesses, and exact people to target with ads, flyers, or cold calls - even if they have zero need for your business. These outbound strategies can work, but you’re broadcasting your message to tons of people who don’t care about it.

A strategy that adapts

As time marches on, there will always be new ways people discover content - Instagram location tags, other social apps with their own search and discovery - and a good strategy adapts to meet your audience wherever they look. We build and run newsletter programs in HubSpot, Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign, and ConvertKit, whether you’re starting a list from scratch or reviving a neglected one.

Frequently asked questions

What is content marketing, and how does it generate leads?
Content marketing means answering the questions your buyers are already asking, through articles, guides, case studies, video, and newsletters, so they find you on Google and see that you’re the expert. Instead of chasing prospects with cold calls and ads, prospects learn from you and contact you first. Downloadable guides and newsletters turn anonymous visitors into leads you can follow up with.
What types of content do you create?
Blogs and articles, whitepapers and downloadable guides, case studies and customer stories, content targeted to the specific phrases your buyers search, video for YouTube, Vimeo, and other platforms, and email newsletters. Most of it lives beyond your core website pages, built to rank for the searches that matter and earn your prospects’ trust.
How is content marketing related to SEO?
They work together: content is the fuel, and search engine optimization makes sure Google rewards it with rankings. Every useful article built around a phrase your buyers search is another way to be found. Strategic, regular content is the engine behind long-term SEO gains.
Does content marketing work for manufacturers and B2B companies?
Yes. Industrial and technical buyers often research a problem well before they reach out, so detailed content about how your industry works and how common problems get solved puts you in front of them early. Case studies in your customers’ own words are especially useful, because proof from people like them builds trust faster than a sales pitch.
