Use Content Marketing to Generate Quality Sales Leads.

People are looking online for information. If you post an interesting item in a popular blog, publish an article in the top industry e-newsletter or develop a widely-circulated presentation on Slideshare, you will boost traffic to your Web site.

For success, develop a content marketing strategy that provides valuable content. Valuable content is information of value to your prospect. This content does carry a hard-hitting sales agenda. Your mission here is to enhance reputation and drive traffic to your Web site.

Here are some key tips for creating an effective content marketing program.

• Conduct preliminary research and create a list of potential content topics from sources such as.
1. Your Web logs. Identify the keywords driving the most engaged viewers to your Web site.
2. Google Trends. Discover the most popular keywords in your industry and watch for seasonality to the search patterns for your topics.
3. Your in-house content. Inventory that you have on-hand and find content you can re-purpose for other content marketing efforts. For example, do you have a popular blog post, e-newsletter article or industry presentation?
