The process of creating new leads to fill your sales pipeline has completely transformed in the last ten years, most markedly over the last two or three. It used to be that marketing or sales found the name of an individual who may be interested in what your had to sell and that lead was nurtured by sales until hopefully, they became a customer.

Today, every customer takes a different journey to you get to you. Some come to you from a search engine, others from seeing you at an industry event, in a newspaper article or from the recommendation of an industry analyst. What is consistent is that nine times out of ten, that lead comes to you armed with at least some information about your business. Because lead generation today is about the self-directed customer being able to find you, getting them to recognize that you can address a need and making them receptive enough to engage in that first sales conversation.

As marketers, our challenge is that there is an abundance of information out there so we need a well-defined strategy, underpinned by clear, consistent messaging and laser sharp targeting, to ensure that prospective customers see the information we are putting out there and can identify it as being of enough interest to spur them into action.
