 (Mark Mathson, Keenpath) Everything from the beginning of time has involved some form of communication, one way or another. This communication makes modern economies work, thrive and grow. What does this have to do with marketing, especially inbound marketing? A lot. The objective with inbound marketing is to simplify the approach to marketing. For too long, marketing in general has been overcomplicated and this puts a burden on everyone, especially the small guy. The way we all now communicate has changed that. The Internet changed all of that. What other platform can you expend energy on with basically free tool sets such as blogging, and get great results in return? A blog with at least 20 posts is enough to start generating leads.
Do the math:
- If it takes you 30 minutes each to craft out a brief, but informative post about your product or service, 20 posts would take about 10 hours
- Break it down over a few days and spend 3 hours writing blog posts
- If you were paying yourself $50 an hour to write these posts it'd come out to around $500 right?
You can easily blow through $500 on advertising! Don't get it wrong, there are purposes for paid advertising, but the beauty of inbound marketing is that if you can generate the content, it pays dividends.
