Marketing Consultants: How to Build a Website that Nurtures

Do Your Marketing Consultants Understand Nurturing?

– Our previous article discussed the importance of working with qualified Inbound Marketing Consultants to build a website based on Attraction. Upon attracting Visitors to your site, the consumption of information should create a natural migration toward a purchase.

We choose to achieve this by nurturing rather than forcing.

A nurturing website leads your prospects on a carefully planned and intentional path through your website, from the first landing page to final purchase and re-purchase. This path is defined by the needs of the Visitor.

Your conversion path must, therefore, always have well-defined beginning and end points. The journey in between may be dynamic, but effective conversion requires a known beginning and end. ?How else would we measure?

A nurturing site produces a natural progression down the purchase funnel 2 ways:

1).?Content Strategy
2).?Call-to-Action Maps

Does Your Site Nurture or Neglect?

Attractive, nurturing website grows Customers from Visitors and Leads. By providing content fuel that either leads to a solutions or is the solution, your website engine purrs on. The results are higher yield ?per Visitor and per Customer. That’s online return on the investment.

The opposite of nurturing is neglect. Most websites neglect the needs of their Visitor. Prospects wither and die, bouncing off your website and out of your sales funnel. On to a more satisfying site…your competitor’s.

Inbound Marketing Consultants can demonstrate the importance of Content Strategy as it relates to your Conversion Machine.

Are you nurturing or neglecting your website visitors?

3D Content
