Do you want to romance your prospects? 
Oh, I’m not talking about the sexual romance here; I mean something more rewarding that could put money into your bank account.
The ability to engage people can help you lead a better business life.
If you rightly press the content buttons, you could easily woo your ideal prospects – generate better leads and increase sales simultaneously.
Content marketing has the potential to attract clients to you, get them to know and trust you.
This is the first and most important aspect of running an online business.
You need compelling information to grab attention and establish the rapport needed to sell your products and services.
Why Would You Romance Prospects?
It’s because, you’ll speak directly to them. There will be such an emotional nexus that would boost your business guts and lead to long-term relationship.
This question is similar to, “why would you start a business?” As sexual romance deals with deep affection between two persons, ideally, romancing prospects can also do the same thing.
The sole objective of starting a business is to make profit – romancing prospects enhances profit making.
You connect deeper with people to the extent that they begin to consider hiring your services and subscribing to your email list.
Effective connection between the buyer and the seller could only be made possible if you understand the person at the other end (the buyer, prospect, client etc).
Do you know who your prospect is? It’s not enough to assume or guess that everyone needs to read your blog and use your latest app or software, you’ve got to study the market, and discover who you’re made for. Everyone is not for you, and you’re not meant for everybody.
Determine Your Ideal Prospects
As I said earlier, there is perfect prospect for you. When you effectively market to these persons and satisfy their taste for quality and helpful information, there would be a surge of traffic and business influence attracted to you.
It’s all about word of mouth marketing and it begins with the ideal prospect. Without a deep knowledge of who this person is, you’ll approach marketing with the mindset of a victim.
I can’t outright tell you who the ideal prospect is. It’s your primary duty to research and determine who they’re and how they make buying decisions.
Content marketing is cute because, it reveals the thoughts people have deep down in their minds – when they comment on a post, you could know what people are desperately looking for.
Create Timely, Valuable Offers
Content marketing isn’t new. The same rules still holds: create quality content. Make it valuable and insightful. Then release it into the minds of your prospects by answering the questions they ask.
An offer that is timely would produce better results than outdated one. If you discover a recent web development or shift in the status quo, it’s time to challenge you to produce a timely and usable offer.
People should leave your blog feeling satisfied and eager to take action. Anything short of this is a mere content marketing disguise. It doesn’t produce results and will never lead you to your goals.
Take action now
One more thing: make sure you’re available when your prospects need you. If someone subscribes to your email list, you’re indebted to them for as long as they stay subscribed.
Provide exclusive contents and be there when they need you. That’s how to grow a business with content marketing.
