Content solutions should engage, educate and nurture your audience.

Content is the vehicle that provides consumers the education, industry trends, product comparisons and other valuable information leading to a purchase decision.

Developing meaningful content. Defining distribution channels. Building programs that increase your online return on investment. That’s the purpose of content marketing.

InterEdge Marketing provides content solutions that engage, educate and nurture your audience, converting more prospects into paying customers.

Effective content marketing nurtures a prospect through the purchasing phases similar to an effective sales rep. When a rep first engages a prospect, the goal is to uncover problems, defining the needs and gaps in a current process vs. the ideal state. Initial meetings identify challenges. Subsequent meetings provide educational opportunities and bring clarity to potential solutions. Each meeting, if executed, effectively paves the way for next steps.

Today, 57% of a purchasing decision is made before a buyer contacts a seller. Using online tools in the selling process is more important than ever. Much like an effective sales rep, content allows prospects to learn about your services even if they aren’t speaking with you directly.

Online users access many different forms of content when researching a company.

Web Pages

An essential part of any website is the web page content. Describing your capabilities effectively. Using words and phrases your audience recognizes. Adding fresh content to influence search engine results. Incorporating these elements into an overall content plan. Done correctly, each step allows you to attract a broader audience helping them gain a better understanding of your capabilities.

Blogs

Newsletters

Are an effective way to communicate with current customers and interested prospects. A newsletter provides a consistent method of conveying information your audience anticipates and finds useful.
