We find ourselves in the midst of dramatic changes in the way we market, promote and connect with new potential customers and specifiers.

most marketing specialists have started working more actively with internet advertising, mainly Google AdWords and SEO (Search Engine Optimisation), but they are also spending considerably more time on boosting activity in social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.

all of this is positive and inherently the first step in moving away from expensive and short-lived tradi-tional approaches to marketing. But before we jump the gun, let’s look at the differences between inbound marketing and traditional marketing.

as a result of the emergence of the internet, people have drastically changed the way they look for infor-mation. The changes are even more palpable in B2B marketing, where professionals demand trusted in-formation from a reliable source – but only when they want  to have it. Here are some key points to think about:

1. Pitfalls of passive marketingpassive marketing encompasses traditional advertising, banners, commercials etc., and is a one-way commu-nication that doesn’t occur when viewers want it to. It also doesn’t give any added value or allow for a higher degree of knowledge exchange.

there is no way in passive marketing to get viewers engaged or to create a two-way communication. It’s basically an expensive one-way street leading you right back where you started.

2. Perks of inbound marketinginbound marketing gives the information recipient the ability to view and use the information when needed, making it much more valuable. Inbound marketing also creates a relationship with the recipient who now becomes a user of that information. It allows them to download something valuable, exchange know-how and engage. Inbound marketing is so much more powerful when it comes to cost-effectiveness and measurable ROI.

marketing specialists in the architecture, design and engineering industry now have an even better oppor-tunity – welcome to the world of  integrated inbound marketing.

3. Integrated inbound marketingintegrated inbound marketing in a hosting solution will give you as a marketing specialist  constant visibility of your products and solutions when they’re in the hands of the design community. All of this is possible with the help of a layer of integration made possible by BIMobject Apps, which allows the designer to search, browse, filter and download your  products and product data at any time during their daily work. In reality it represents an unrivaled amount of time with the people who actually make the decision to digitally choose your products.
