The Awareness Phase

Initially, display and social ads introduce prospects to brands, emphasizing compelling reasons to take notice. Targeting relies on first-party data gleaned from site visitors, integrating platform profiles to maintain relevancy. Compelling creative showcases personality through imagery, copy, and calls-to-action resonating with target personas.

Engagement Nurturing  

Landing pages serve relevant segments tailored information through optimized funnel experiences requesting contact details for a valuable offer, eBook, or challenge. Nurturing emails follow an episodic storyline further engaging subscribers over weeks. Social posts reinforce branding and current promotions sustaining top-of-mind awareness.

Exploration Encouragement

Curated blog content aids exploration delving deeper into issues and topics sparking initial curiosity. Social scheduling patterns encourage discovery through varied post formats, polls, and media strengthening topical expertise perceptions. Video expands brand accessibility through visual storytelling emphasizing a human element.

Consideration Conversion 

Targeted retargeting invites return visits drawing prospects closer to a decision. Custom audience connections on social media leverage “warm” contacts focusing on ongoing nurturing. Landing pages highlight audience-centric solutions motivating desired conversions addressed specifically to previous interactions and pain points disclosed by profiling.

Customer Cultivation

Post-conversion emails acknowledge purchases while providing extra value maintaining momentum. Customer communities allow peer learning through shared experiences. Advocacy programs incentivize reviews, referrals, and customer-generated content amplifying authentic word-of-mouth buzz. Reward tiers recognize top advocates through exclusive perks keeping brand love evergreen.
