CONTENT & SALES
Content marketing that tells a relevant story to the right audience can generate qualified leads that bolster your company's sales efforts. Here's how:
Promotional Content is Done

The days of flooding the internet with overly promotional content are gone
-
Marketing is becoming increasingly contextual, with a focus on relevancy

Content marketing – also called inbound marketing – focuses on earning a person’s attention by offering engaging content aimed at improving the online experience
Content Must Add Value
-
Content marketing, especially via a blog, enables a brand to find its voice and differentiate itself

Visitors and search engines expect content that adds value, so if you deliver, you can expect visitors to increase and search engines to index your pages higher, which will drive sales

Evergreen blog posts continue to generate leads long after they're published
