The next topics will explain each one of them. Keep reading to know what you have to do!<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Recognize lead types and define goals<\/h3>\n<p>The first step is to know what are the leads types and define how much of each of them you need to achieve your sales goals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To do that, we must start by&nbsp;<strong>creating a&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/pingback.com\/en\/resources\/buyer-persona\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>buyer persona<\/strong><\/a><strong>&nbsp;profile for each one of these leads<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll define the leads by their acquisition channel:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Seeds<\/strong>: they come to the company by word-of-mouth method. They don&#8217;t need a complex acquisition process, and they&#8217;re highly qualified;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nets<\/strong>: they&#8217;re the leads brought to your company by Inbound Marketing. They&#8217;re relatively qualified;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spears<\/strong>: they&#8217;re the Outbound Sales leads and may or may not be qualified.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Get a qualified sales team<\/h3>\n<p>Outbound Marketing strategies are common in SaaS \u2014 Software as a Service \u2014 startups.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>These companies generally adopt an internal sales operation, which includes&nbsp;<strong>two types of sales professionals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Companies realize that high-performance salespeople are sometimes unproductive because they need to split up into prospecting and closing processes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>That can be solved by hiring a professional for each stage.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve listed the differences between these two types of salespeople:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>hunters:&nbsp;<\/strong>prospect customers. They make the first contact with the prospect and schedule a meeting;<\/li>\n<li><strong>closers:&nbsp;<\/strong>show the product, prepare the commercial proposal and the contract, and close the deal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Know the prospect and sales techniques<\/h3>\n<p>While starting your strategy, it is important to use some techniques that ensure good results.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cold mail and cold call<\/h4>\n<p>The purpose of a cold call is to prospect the customer that hasn&#8217;t made any purchase or contact with your business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Cold calls can be mistaken for telemarketing, but there are some differences between them.<\/p>\n<p>In cold calls, you need trained and prepared salespeople. In telemarketing, this is not always necessary. The metrics and KPIs can be different too.<\/p>\n<p>One thing you should keep in mind is that some countries have strict policies for commercial calls.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s worthy of mentioning that, despite the cons regarding the audience, cold calls can be really effective when well-planned and executed.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AIDA<\/h4>\n<p>When using methods such as AIDA, cold calls are more likely to generate good results.<\/p>\n<p>Understand more about AIDA:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Awareness<\/strong>: you need to get the customers&#8217; attention in the first few seconds of the call or on the email&#8217;s subject, showing that your company knows their problems.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Interests<\/strong>: the second step is to show how your company can solve the consumer problem.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Desire<\/strong>: your company needs to show the advantages the solution offers to make consumers interested in it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Action<\/strong>: finally, you need to make the consumer decide on something, such as booking a meeting or buying your product.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Marketing Backstage:  How to choose the best content type for your marketing strategy\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Meze1tIEFUA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Use qualified patterns and frameworks<\/h3>\n<p>The lead qualification matrix is a way to understand how fitted the leads are to your business and solutions that you sell.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>There&#8217;s no sense in a list full of leads that won&#8217;t buy your products<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>To know how hot is a lead, you have to consider the profile and the maturity axis.&nbsp;Find out what each one represents:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>profile<\/strong>: it&#8217;s the main lead&#8217;s characteristics, such as annual billing, employee quantity, actuation market and other information that impacts their fit to your product;<\/li>\n<li><strong>maturity<\/strong>: it&#8217;s how much educated the leads are about their problems and if they understand how your product will help them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Using this matrix, you can discard the leads that won&#8217;t buy from you. This way, you&#8217;ll better guide and follow up on leads that need more education.<\/p>\n<p>Honestly, it\u2019s easy to get lost in the weeds here if you\u2019re not paying attention to how reality matches the model. Sometimes, what seems like a \u201cbad fit\u201d lead on paper will surprise you once there\u2019s actual back-and-forth\u2014people don\u2019t always put their full business situation into a database. Checking back after a quarter or two, or even just gut-checking your own assessment every so often, will help shape future decisions and maybe save a few opportunities from the trash bin.<\/p>\n<p>Also, don\u2019t underestimate how much internal debate this can spark in your sales team. Folks will have opinions on what makes for a \u201cqualified\u201d lead, and it\u2019s not always what the framework says. In practice, it\u2019s worth encouraging those conversations; you might uncover gaps in your criteria or, just as likely, see patterns emerge that help everyone tighten up what actually moves the sales needle for your product or service.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Make a lead follow-up and forecast<\/h3>\n<p>To ensure the success of your Outbound Marketing strategy, you need to establish a monitoring and forecasting routine.<\/p>\n<p>These practices are very important to keep potential customers on the radar. This way, you can&nbsp;<strong>identify and correct problems in the sales process<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure your team is keeping the recommended frequency of tracking customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Also, ask professionals to explain their difficulties, achievements, and mistakes. That is important to improve your sales strategy.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Analyze the results<\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s essential to&nbsp;<strong>monitor the results of the Outbound Marketing actions&nbsp;<\/strong>for many reasons, but mainly to justify the maintenance operation and make adjustments.<\/p>\n<p>To better understand the results, you need to define&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/pingback.com\/en\/resources\/digital-marketing-kpis\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Key Performance Indicators<\/a>&nbsp;(KPIs).&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The main Outbound Marketing KPIs are listed below:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Lead Time (LT)<\/strong>: how long it takes the lead to advance to the next stage of the funnel. That determines the size of the sales cycle;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Conversion Rate<\/strong>: the list of how many new leads became customers;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC)<\/strong>: is the amount invested in new customers. This indicator determines the value of each customer;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lifetime Value (LTV)<\/strong>: is the total amount spent by a customer in your company;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Churn Rate<\/strong>: how many customers cancel the contract before the predicted time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7 Outbound Marketing Tactics That Still Work Today<\/h2>\n<p>Don&#8217;t believe anyone who tells you outbound marketing is outmoded and no longer works.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Not only are there many outbound tactics that still work today, but some may even work better on certain members of your target audience depending on who they are, where they live, and other factors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Here are some great examples.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Paid Search Ads<\/h3>\n<p>Although search ads actually occupy an interesting grey area between inbound and outbound marketing, as they&#8217;ll only be presented to people who have made a related search query, they cast a wide enough net to count as outbound marketing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>They also remain very effective ways to <strong>reach highly convertible consumers at opportune times.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Standard <a href=\"https:\/\/pingback.com\/en\/resources\/what-is-seo\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">SEO strategies<\/a> mean playing the long game and building authority a little at a time over many weeks or months. But search ads deliver relatively quick results and a near-immediate SERP presence.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Be sure both your ads <em>and <\/em>your landing pages are on point to maximize results.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Social Media Ads<\/h3>\n<p>Saying that the average person spends a lot of time on social media nowadays is a real understatement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The typical median usage these days is about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartinsights.com\/social-media-marketing\/social-media-strategy\/new-global-social-media-research\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">2.5 hours daily<\/a>, so social media ads offer marketers an effective way to connect with consumers in their downtime.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, standard social media marketing is fantastic for <strong>cultivating lasting connections with customers and building your <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/pingback.com\/en\/resources\/brand-identity\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>brand identity<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong> But paid social media ads that cast a wider net make a great option, too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s also a lot more effective and yields results quicker than relying solely on organic reach to get through to your audience.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Trade Shows and Live Events<\/h3>\n<p>Many digital-age marketers make the mistake of thinking traditional outbound marketing approaches like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/forbesfinancecouncil\/2020\/02\/20\/why-trade-shows-are-important-for-your-small-business\/?sh=62710b91aad7\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">trade shows<\/a>, conventions, and other live events are no longer relevant.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, there&#8217;s still a lot of value in getting out and <strong>connecting with members of your target audience in person.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Attending such events <em>can <\/em>come attached to a relatively high upfront cost compared to other methods, but the exposure and the number of leads you can walk away with are priceless.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As with any other type of outbound marketing, make sure you&#8217;re maximizing your results by budgeting wisely and setting clear goals.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Old-School Advertising (Print, Radio, and TV Ads)<\/h3>\n<p>Traditional old-school advertising methods have had to evolve a lot since the internet came along and changed the world of marketing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, they&#8217;re still relevant ways to potentially reach people. This is especially the case if you&#8217;re looking to target older customers.<\/p>\n<p>For example, younger generations may spend hours on social media every day, but consumers 50 and older are <strong>much more likely to be watching television.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For instance, Americans between 50-64 years old watch <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketingcharts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Nielsen-Traditional-TV-Viewing-by-Age-in-Q3-2020-May2021-.png\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">nearly five hours<\/a> of television daily. Those 65 and over watch closer to 6.5 hours.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Cold Email<\/h3>\n<p>If it feels like email has been around for ages, it&#8217;s because it has.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But it shows no signs of falling out of fashion anytime soon. It also still represents an incredible marketing opportunity for digital-age businesses, especially in a day and age that&#8217;s seeing options like <a href=\"https:\/\/pingback.com\/en\/resources\/interactive-newsletter\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">newsletters<\/a> making a real comeback.<\/p>\n<p>The key to success when it comes to outbound marketing tactics like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.saleshandy.com\/blog\/cold-email\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cold emails<\/a> is to make yours<strong> personalized, respectful, and potentially valuable.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Friendly subject lines, personal-sounding messages, and consistently offering the recipient something worthwhile in exchange for their time can help you succeed here.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Speaking of newsletters, are you subscribed to ours?)<\/em><\/p>\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Cold Calls<\/h3>\n<p>Many forms of outbound marketing have a reputation for being pushy, intrusive, and irritating among other things, and cold calling can definitely be one of them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But it also remains an incredibly solid way for many businesses \u2014 especially those in the B2B sector \u2014 to make contact with potential customers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The key to doing cold calls properly is to adopt the right approach.<\/strong> Do your homework on the potential recipients of your calls to ensure you&#8217;re reaching out to the right people.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And focus on establishing and nurturing new relationships instead of attempting to pressure people into making a purchase.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Direct Mailing<\/h3>\n<p>Snail mail may not be most people&#8217;s go-to method of getting in touch with people anymore, but that&#8217;s precisely why it&#8217;s still an effective way to generate potential leads.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In a day and age that&#8217;s all about email or social media, it feels different (and really pretty cool) to see something addressed to you in your actual mailbox.<\/p>\n<p>As with many forms of outbound marketing, your rates of success with direct mailing will depend a lot on your approach.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As always, make sure you&#8217;re choosing the right target audience based on factors like <strong>demographics, location, and purchase history.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Help your mailers stand out by being creative, witty, and innovative with your campaigns, as well.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bonus: Should You Move from Outbound Marketing to Inbound?<\/h2>\n<p>Although there are still plenty of advantages to outbound marketing, most digital-age businesses <em>do <\/em>want to make at least a partial transition to inbound marketing at some point.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Here are some tips for doing it right and maximizing your chances of success.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Identify your goals<\/h3>\n<p>As with any marketing strategy, it&#8217;s crucial to have clear goals in mind when it comes to inbound marketing. Consider <em>why <\/em>you want to make the move,<strong> as well as why you want to make it now.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Are you looking to drive more traffic to your site, reach a different market, or do something else entirely?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t know where you&#8217;re trying to go (and by when), you won&#8217;t ever know whether you&#8217;ve succeeded.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Know your target audience<\/h3>\n<p>Knowing who you&#8217;re trying to reach with your marketing strategies is always essential, but accurate targeting is crucial with inbound marketing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Make sure you know <em>exactly <\/em>which members of your larger audience you&#8217;re trying to reach with each campaign and piece of content.<\/p>\n<p>Modern consumers and younger markets prefer personalized, low-key marketing that feels tailor-made just for them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Who your audience is and what their needs are should determine details like<strong> language choice, the types of content you create, and so forth.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Support your inbound marketing content with outbound marketing<\/h3>\n<p>Successful inbound marketing campaigns hinge on the consistent production of <em>great <\/em>content and plenty of it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Think articles, videos, and blog posts that are helpful, informative, or entertaining<\/strong> \u2014 marketing material that doesn&#8217;t feel like marketing material at all.<\/p>\n<p>You can also use your best outbound marketing tactics to help your inbound marketing campaigns gain better traction.<\/p>\n<p>For example, you can use your <a href=\"https:\/\/pingback.com\/en\/resources\/what-does-ppc-stand-for\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">pay-per-click advertising<\/a> campaigns to link to high-value blog posts instead of your homepage. Send out an email blast to your subscriber list to promote options like video tutorials, ebooks, etc. Be creative.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enhancing Outbound Marketing with Advanced Content Solutions<\/h2>\n<p>While outbound marketing focuses on reaching out to potential customers, the effectiveness of these efforts is greatly enhanced by high-quality content.
