As a small to medium sized business, it’s safe to say one of your major marketing goals is to ‘get found’ or ‘attract’ people who are likely to buy from you, right? Attracting buyers is the first stage of the inbound marketing methodology, which we often talk about on this blog. Inbound marketing focuses on customer-centric marketing, or, marketing content that appeals to your ideal buyer by addressing their challenges and pain points. Yet how do you actually ‘get found’ by people who are likely to buy from your organisation?
With inbound marketing, it all comes down to understanding your buyers. It’s about knowing what they’re searching for online, and integrating those keywords into the content you create. Most small businesses know in theory how to get found. However, actually putting it into practice is a challenge for many SMEs. That’s why we love HubSpot Marketing Software. No matter the size of your business, HubSpot has a marketing package to suit every need and budget. HubSpot Marketing Software has all the tools you need to start actually getting found, which can be fully integrated into your website. In this blog, we’re going to explain just how powerful HubSpot Marketing Software is and how it can help you start attracting the right customers.
