Lead generation is an important part of any business — even more so when selling higher value items — but all too often I see companies making the classic mistake of putting lots of effort into lead generation, but then doing nothing with the hard earned prospects. For example, a company may run a Facebook competition that captures email addresses, or they may run a PPC advert to a landing page that offers a free eBook in exchange for the visitor’s details.
You’ve probably read time and time again — possibly even on this very blog — that the secret to driving traffic to your website (and hopefully more leads and customers as a result) is creating quality, unique content that adds value.
