Digital Marketing Strategies For Business Growth

  How Artificial intelligence is helped in account based marketing ? When was the last time you had a great customer experience? Was it during a sales call, or did it pop out of an exceptional direct mail? HubSpot  defines customer experience as "The impression you leave with your customer, resulting in how they think of your brand, across every stage of the customer journey." Customer experience has a direct impact on revenue. A positive customer experience promises satisfaction and opens up-sell and cross-sell opportunities. In today's times, prospects have become intelligent enough to sense a sales pitch from a mile away. The challenge is to slowly and creatively plant the seed of your product quality and brand value in their mind so that when they're looking to buy, they think about you. Thus, it becomes imperative to provide customers with an impressive buying experience. And marketers have figured this long ago, which is why ABM came into existence.  Account ba

  The results of doing ABM from traditional demand generation tactics have made a great deal of difference in the B2B space – and for the better. But we’ve progressed considerably in our marketing journey and the B2B customer journey has only gotten more intricate as we move forward. There are more channels available (both online and offline) for engagement, similarly more devices to engage on, making it overwhelming or near impossible for marketers to keep track of their customer journey. This is where account based marketing attribution can help. Doing account based marketing without attribution is like taking aim without a definite goal that you can’t validate. It’s just not accurate if you don’t have the right data attribution for your ABM. The key is to see that today’s buyer is never a single person/individual who progresses along your funnel, but a set of decision makers, with different pain points that we group into accounts. And marketers can’t be efficient if they’re trackin

Maturing Digitally? Marketing isn’t what it used to be. Today, Digital Marketing is Marketing. It must be. A company will find any way possible to get its information out to those it wants to see it. Finding the best way to influence people to give the best experience. The fastest way to garner that attention is digitally. Adobe has graced us with this survey for the past seven years. A large part of  digital marketing  is knowing what to prioritize and understanding the trends but always looking ahead and preparing for the future.

Although, still true now,in 2016 the focus for this went more in depth Digital marketers from North America and Europe, about 735 of them, responded to the survey. They use various tactics and strategies when handling their digital marketing. No firms are created equal, each one has its similarities and differences. THEN AND

Intent Data and the Future of Customer Analytics   Before you intend to engage with your buyer in their buying journey, remember that their journey is more than halfway through, already. So, mend your intentions and target being a part of it from the inception.  Welcome to Intent Data. The latest cue phrase in the B2B customer data repository.  Intent data is data about buyer intentions. It contains data regarding what, where and how a buyer thinks, prefers, refers, compares, analyses, uses, experiences, extracts, combines, discusses, infers, decides and purchases. This data refers to the ultimate buying intention, from where it develops, leads and proceeds, engages and ends.  And all of this, has a lot to do with cognition and consumer psychology.  Let’s be precise. It is in fact, cognitive psychology.  Cognitive psychology is the scientific study of the mind as an information processor.  And this is exactly what marketers are doing - studying the mind of the prospective buyer throug

What will be your strategy for customer satisfaction ?   Customer success is a great way to make customers feel valued by helping them achieve their goals. To do so, a CSM team should function as a brand ambassador for your customers. They are expected to listen to every voice and pay attention to solve the problems of your customers. A dedicated team of CSMs will create a customer-centric atmosphere in every part of your organization.  It's a great way to use customers' voices to improve performance not only for CSMs but for the whole organization. At any point, keeping customers at the heart gives a better understanding of what they want and how you can add value throughout their journey with you.  Building a customer success strategy can differ from organization to organization but defining how the customer success program aligns with your business goal will be the key point for long-term viability. For Which Businesses, Is CSM Applicable? The reason for customer success, t

  “A satisfied customer is the best business strategy of all," says business writer and former management professor at the University of New Orleans - Michael LeBoeuf. Whether you are a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) business, sell products or are a service-based company; customer success is the thing that will take you a long way. Making your customers happy by helping them solve their questions is the key factor to reach customers in the next level in the  customer journey . They are willing to switch and take the offering from your competitors at the drop of a hat. And the only reason they will do this is because they are not getting the expected value from you. This means customers today are no longer depending on the price or product but they are becoming loyal because of the experience they are getting. If you are not able to meet their requirements and do not provide the necessary support, they will leave immediately. If you give a good customer experience, it means they wil
