Proof is in the Pudding!“A couple of years ago our company, JASE Digital Media, decided that we were going to commit wholeheartedly to inbound marketing. The marketing and advertising strategies we had previously used for our company just were not working as effectively as we hoped.
Our process began as a test project around our blog material and extended out to a few of the social communities we were actively involved in. We began creating a massive amount of content, then instigated, created and encouraged as many links back to this content as possible.
Guess what? It worked. And it still works. Every day.”
