How Do I Get Started with Digital Marketing?

  1. Set SMART goals – Define what “success” is to you in order to create a strategy and metrics to measure.
  2. Set a blogging schedule – Blogs are the easiest ways to generate new content for a website & boost your organic SEO. Aim for between 1-4 blogs per month for a good starting foundation.
  3. Brand social media channels and create a schedule – Make sure your social channels are consistent with your brand by using icons & banners that match. 1-7 posts per week is a great place to start.
  4. Decide on an email strategy. A monthly newsletter is a great way to stay connected with your customers & prospects

The Difference Between Digital Marketing & Inbound Marketing

Digital marketing is the broad term used to describe digital content pieces used to connect with an audience.

  • Digital marketing is the how of delivering a message, not the what and why.

Inbound marketing is a specific, tactical marketing strategy. 

  •  Inbound marketing is the actual message being delivered and the purpose behind it.

The key difference between digital marketing and inbound marketing is that the term digital marketing doesn’t imply any strategy.

What is Inbound Marketing?

What is Inbound Marketing?

Inbound marketing is customer-oriented and customer-driven. Simply put, inbound marketing starts with valuable content that your target audience wants, instead of just advertising your services. With inbound marketing, you focus on providing valuable information or items your customers can use. 

For example, you might start with an ebook, a quiz, a checklist or a blog that your ideal customer might find useful. You dangle that content offer to get nibbles in exchange for a form fill or phone call, and then follow-up with more direct advertising.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
