RESEARCH!

All good marketing begins with good market research. Creating targeted content can be better achieved when you know your audience. Don’t just go on a hunch, try out some qualitative and quantitative techniques to gain a better understanding of your target audience’s desires, values, interests, motivations and their online browsing behaviour.

CREATE ACTION PLAN

Based on the initial research, you can now create a campaign concept and plan, tailored to your target audience and business objectives.

MARKETING AUTOMATION

DEMAND GENERATION

The end result is increased sales.

REPORT AND ANALYSE

Once you have established a process that delivers more direct sales or qualified leads to your sales team, you need to start the evaluation.  At Springboard PR & Marketing, we advise our clients to monitor the various stages and track a variety of analytics.
