Content is King

Content marketing is no longer the “wave of the future.” It is here now. Traditional online advertising such as banner ads and pop-ups have lost their effectiveness. The best way to attract new customers is using website content writing to create useful, engaging content to draw the customers to you. Those websites with these types of blog posts as part of their web content management program will have the edge over those who don’t.

In June 2014, Google rebranded Google + Local–Google’s version of the Yellow Pages–to Google My Business and expanded its capabilities to become an “all-in-one small business online management center.”

What is the first thing you do when you are thinking about dining at a new restaurant, or hiring a kitchen remodeling company? You look at online reviews. Social media platforms such as Facebook, Google + and Yelp make it easy for customers to interact with your business and spread the word to other potential customers. Sometimes our search marketing programs need to be integrated with customer reviews and feedback in addition to social media.

At first glance, search marketing programs seem to be geared toward businesses that cater directly to customers such as retail shops like Amazon and Walmart. Or for more traditional B2B organizations providing goods and services that the average business looks for.

But what about my business? What about industrial clients who specialize in products that only a select few know about or need, but yet are an important part of the economy? How does an industrial search marketing program benefit me?

Social media. It is everywhere. The new language of world is filled with Likes, Shares, Retweets, and #hashtags. But what does social media marketing mean to your B2B business?

Establishes Web Presence

These days when a business looks for help, they don’t grab the Yellow Pages or an industry-specific directory, they use Google.
