What is Article Marketing?
Article marketing or blogging is the most common form of content marketing. Whether it’s the most effective way to reach your intended audience is debatable. Nonetheless, article marketing is a powerful way to educate and connect with prospects. It’s also a great way to stay top of mind with past customers. In years past article’s containing 300-500 words served as a great way to be found online, but today that has changed as search engines tend to favor long-form content. Recent studies show that more in-depth articles tend to provide more value. It can also help to build your brand by building trust and authority on a topic or subject.
This type of content also helps with conversions as it provides potential customers with the information they need to make informed and educated purchasing decisions. While the goal is to have content be found on search engines, content should also be written with people in mind. Your content should answer their questions and provide solutions while helping them decide why they should choose your product or service.

What is Email Marketing?
Email marketing is a direct marketing strategy that utilizes electronic mail to commercially promote a product, service or offer. While email marketing can be very effective, it is underutilized by many small and medium size business owners. There is a saying in the digital marketing community “The money is in the list”. This is for good reason because in 2018 email marketing generated an average of $38 for every $1 spent. Yes, your math is good – that’s a 3,800% ROI!
This is where the problem comes in. Developing a large and responsive email marketing list can be hard work. Almost every email provider today has strong spam filters that prevent emails from reaching the inbox of it’s intended receiver. In order to ensure that an email reaches it’s recipient, the recipient would need to subscribe to the senders list. This is a fairly easy task when you have previously sold to a customer or performed a service thus being a great way to increase customer retention and also when up-selling. Combining email marketing with other types of marketing also increases the likelihood of sales and brand awareness. Talk to us about ways we can help with your email marketing campaign.
