Quotes:
“Content marketing is important because the customer life cycle varies from product to product, company to company. Some prospects that enter a company's funnel may not buy right away. So what do you do with that contact? You don't give up.” - Jeffrey Traister
“If you start advertising, that means you're starting to spend money. As soon as you spend money, you need a way to convert that contact, that lead, into a customer.” - Jeffrey Traister
“One of the great things with automation is that we're able to ask questions to gather information about the audience. By doing that, the audience member will have a greater appreciation of the relationship with you.” - Jeffrey Traister
