Core B2B Marketing Plan

Make Customers 

  • Know your buyers and map the buyer’s journey
  • Provide the content your buyers crave
  • Generate leads (SEO, SEM)
  • Manage leads (lead nurturing, scoring and prioritizing)
  • Convert leads to sales

Manage Customers 

  • Make it easy to find you
  • Stay top-of-mind
  • Make online interactions easy for customers and your team
  • Forge deeper connections online and offline over time

Monetize Customers 

  • Strengthen relationships through trust
  • Up-sell and cross-sell
  • Deliver more value to your customers
  • Increase customer lifetime value for your company

Strategic Use of Data = Success

All of these B2B marketing objectives require data.

Digital data points collected from your website, social media, email, and sales interactions in the customer relationship management (CRM) platform add up fast.

How do you manage all of that data, know what it means, and take action on it at the right time with the right message?

The answer is marketing automation.
