Old Strategies Don’t Work
Inbound Marketing
The term ”Inbound“, means that instead of marketer reaching out to consumer, they leave trails of content such as blog posts, podcasts, PR releases, blog comments, videos etc. through which their clients find their website/business. Traditional marketing works other way around. In traditional marketing you find clients. This is more like upselling your product before your consumers even know that you are promoting them something.
