Welcome to Solving Inbound, the podcast dedicated to solving real-life inbound sales and content marketing problems. Join IMPACT’s own Connor DeLaney and John Becker every Thursday as they guide you, and your company, to inbound mastery.
Hey Solving Inbound listeners. We're excited to announce the launch of a new show. Introducing But We're Different — a podcast for sales and marketing practitioners with a different mindset. See, the way people buy has changed. In fact, it's constantly changing. So why haven't most companies changed the way they market and sell? The truth is, they're all thinking, “But We're Different.” This doesn't apply to us. This mindset is why most companies, B2B and B2C, fail to adapt to changes in the marketplace and struggle to grow. Hosted by Nick Bennett, and Zach Basner, But We're Different is not just another sales and marketing podcast. Our mission is to use the insights gained from helping hundreds of companies shatter this mindset and help you set up the strategies and lay out the tactics you need to unlock new growth within your company. Now, in this feed, you can expect weekly episodes from our live virtual event, replays of any guest appearances on other great shows, and exclusives from the team of IMPACT sales and marketing coaches. You can find but we're different everywhere you listen to great podcasts. We hope to see you over there. Spotify Apple Podcasts Google Podcasts But We're Different is recorded live every Tuesday at 3pm ET. If you'd like to join us, you can register here: https://bit.ly/3S68gye
The rise of short-form content is a fascinating one. Platforms like TikTok have evolved from niche social entertainment platforms to one of the most influential tools on society today. As businesses, we can't ignore the power of short-form video content on platforms such as TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram. Instead, we need to apply the principles of inbound marketing to these platforms. In this episode of Solving Inbound, we explore the power of short-form content and the many opportunities they hold for organizations just like yours. --- Additional Resources: Nearly 40% of social media natives use social media as their primary source for information: https://whatsnewinpublishing.com/route-to-increased-relevance-for-news-brands-reuters-digital-news-report-on-effectively-serving-young-audiences/ YouTube reports 1.5 billion users engaged with YouTube shorts in the past month: https://www.socialmediatoday.com/news/youtube-reports-that-15-billion-users-now-engage-with-youtube-shorts-conte/625587/ --- Connect with us Submit future episode ideas here: https://forms.gle/qUYvD8qBRZCiww4U9 Join IMPACT+, our online learning community: https://www.impactplus.com/what-is-impact-plus Follow IMPACT on social media: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/impactbnd/mycompany/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/impactbnd Twitter: https://twitter.com/impactbnd?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/impactbnd/?hl=en

To succeed with inbound marketing, you need the right person on your team to be creating that content, someone we typically refer to as a Content Manager. But what exactly is that content manager responsible for? It's a lot more than just putting words to the page, and we've recruited a bit of help to explain what the role actually looks like in real life. On this episode of Solving Inbound, we're joined by Eli Simonson of Anderson Trucking Service to talk about his role as a content manager at a large (and growing) organization. --- Additional Resources Website: Anderson Trucking Services: https://www.atsinc.com/ Learning Center - Anderson Trucking Services: https://www.atsinc.com/learning-hub Connect with Eli on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elias-simonson-440956149/ --- Connect with us Submit future episode ideas here: https://forms.gle/qUYvD8qBRZCiww4U9 Join IMPACT+, our online learning community: https://www.impactplus.com/what-is-impact-plus Follow IMPACT on social media: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/impactbnd/mycompany/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/impactbnd Twitter: https://twitter.com/impactbnd?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/impactbnd/?hl=en
A lot of businesses approach content with an "if you build it, they will come" mindset. In other words, they think if they're producing content, traffic will naturally follow. But it's not always that simple. Sometimes you might be publishing tons of content but seeing the numbers you care about — namely traffic, leads, and sales — stay flat. If this sounds like you, you're in the right place, because today on Solving Inbound we're going to tell you why your content strategy isn't driving the results you want for your business.

What usually slows down your sales process? One of the top reasons we hear is that prospects are asking a lot of general questions, many of them the same across the board, that hold you back from addressing their specific needs. How do you streamline that process? The key is using content to educate your prospects in the sales process through assignment selling. In this episode of Solving Inbound, we're going to show you how to use content to close deals faster through assignment selling.

Imagine that you're about to enter some information into a website. Nothing crazy, just your first name, your email, and let's say company size. Right before you hit enter, the thought runs through your head "what if I'm about to get bombarded with emails by this company? Do I even know what's going to happen when I hit enter?"

Sales is a numbers game. If your close rate is at a certain level, you know that the more prospects to speak to, the more you'll close, and the bigger your commission will be. This is why sales teams want as many opportunities as possible. But we've got a different strategy that we teach our clients. We advise them to do what they can to get bad-fit prospects out of the sales process so that they're talking to fewer, better prospects. In this episode of solving inbound, we're answering the question: Why should I disqualify bad fit prospects? --- Additional Resources: Course on assignment selling: https://app.impactplus.com/courses/assignment-selling-content-is-your-greatest-sales-tool?next_video=true 5 ways to stop wasting time with bad-fit prospects: https://www.impactplus.com/blog/stop-wasting-time-with-bad-fit-prospects --- Connect with us: Submit future episode ideas here: https://forms.gle/qUYvD8qBRZCiww4U9 Join IMPACT+, our online learning community: https://www.impactplus.com/what-is-impact-plus Follow IMPACT on social media: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/impactbnd/mycompany/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/impactbnd Twitter: https://twitter.com/impactbnd?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/impactbnd/?hl=en
You just got a 1 star review for your business. Someone went onto your Google My Business page or maybe a popular review site for your industry, and gave you a 1 star review with some pretty harsh feedback you weren't expecting. Now the whole world can see that review and you're not too happy about it, right? But now you are between a rock and a hard place. Do I hide from it? Do I respond?

If you're doing inbound marketing, you're in the habit of giving content out for free. Your team writes articles, films videos, and records podcasts — and these are available to everyone with a computer. But sometimes you might want to gate some of your premium content. That is, to require someone to fill out a form or sign up for something in order to access that piece of content. Inbound marketers have always been divided on this idea, so we're going to help you decide for yourself. In this episode of Solving Inbound, we answer the question: Should you gate your content? --- Additional resources: Should You Still Gate Your Content?: https://www.impactplus.com/blog/should-you-still-gate-your-inbound-content-in-2020 Inbound Lead Generation and Conversion Optimization: https://app.impactplus.com/courses/inbound-lead-generation-conversion-optimization --- Submit future episode ideas here: https://forms.gle/qUYvD8qBRZCiww4U9 Join IMPACT+, our online learning community: https://www.impactplus.com/what-is-impact-plus Follow IMPACT on social media: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/impactbnd/mycompany/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/impactbnd Twitter: https://twitter.com/impactbnd?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/impactbnd/?hl=en
We've all heard the phrase, "if everything is a priority, then nothing is a priority". The same applies to content production. If content production is everyone's priority, then it's no one's priority. You must have someone whose full-time job is to own your content production when it comes to inbound marketing. So, who should that person be? In this episode of Solving Inbound, we'll answer the question: Who should own our company's content production process? --- Additional resources: How to Hire a Content Manager: https://app.impactplus.com/courses/how-to-hire-a-content-manager?next_video=true Your Role As A Content Manager: https://app.impactplus.com/courses/your-role-as-a-content-manager?next_video=true --- Connect with us: Submit future episode ideas here: https://forms.gle/qUYvD8qBRZCiww4U9 Join IMPACT+, our online learning community: https://www.impactplus.com/what-is-impact-plus Follow IMPACT on social media: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/impactbnd/mycompany/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/impactbnd Twitter: https://twitter.com/impactbnd?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/impactbnd/?hl=en
The centerpiece of your inbound marketing efforts is the content you produce. But that content needs to get found by searchers in order for it to be useful. Enter SEO: or search engine optimization. Any piece of web content, whether blog article, pillar page, landing page, or anything else, can (and should) be search engine optimized, but the process can be intimidating for those who are non-tech-savvy.

When inbound marketing is done right, it becomes much more than just a marketing strategy — it plays a role in your sales and service processes as well. But sometimes that's easier said than done. Sales reps can be hesitant to embrace new ways of doing things if it means switching up the techniques that got them to where they are today.

When most people think about inbound marketing, they think of website content, organic traffic, and lead generation, but the principles can be applied to your sales process, too. In fact, it is with your sales team that your inbound effort can have the quickest and more noticeable effect. If we think of the goal of inbound marketing as educating your audience so they can become customers, nowhere is that more important than when prospects are in the final stages of a purchase decision. How can you use inbound principles to improve the sales process?In this episode of Solving Inbound, we're going to answer the question: What is sales enablement content? with special guest Kevin Phillips.

At the core of all that is inbound is your website. For so many Businesses looking to get started with inbound marketing, they often think they'll need a whole new website before they can get going. While there are hundreds of website redesign agencies who will agree with you and sell you a brand new site, we've found that a website is not necessary to get started and you're better off putting your time, energy, and money towards your content strategy.

The most important factor to consider in any marketing venture is cost. You want to be sure you're seeing a positive ROI on every dollar you spend on marketing.

The most important factor in traditional, outbound marketing is persuasion. That's what you're after, as a marketer, as a business. You need to persuade your audience that what your offer is right for them, whether you do that directly by talking about its attributes, or indirectly by conveying a feeling, a mood, an identity. With inbound it's totally different. Your goal is not to persuade someone to buy from you, but to get them to learn from you. For this reason, trust is absolutely critical to inbound marketing — and that's what we're going to cover in today's episode of solving inbound. In this episode of solving inbound, we're going to answer the question: Why is trust so critical to inbound? --- Have a question you'd like us to answer?

The way buyers interact with companies has changed. Buyers have more options and more knowledge available than ever before, which means that the way companies get in front of buyers and sell to them has to change too.
