With the changes out there, more and more companies are moving to the inbound or attraction marketing approach to building up their customer base. Basically, inbound marketing is where customers come to you, rather than having you go to your customers.

Traditional mass marketing is on its last legs, with inbound marketing being the wave of the future. Here are 7 reasons that inbound marketing cannot be ignored:

Local SearchMore than 3 out of 4 consumers look for local businesses when they search online. This means they are already in the market for a product or service. With inbound marketing, the consumer will find a business via a search engine or through a blog post or targeted online advertising.

Active UsersOver 8 out of 10 adults spend almost 40 hours a month online, engaged in various activities. Inbound marketing can take advantage of the time when they are active online to move potential clients to the business they desire. Traditional advertising is designed for a passive audience, while inbound marketing is geared towards active users.

Online ResearchOver 90 percent of online users will conduct an online search (using different search engines) to learn about a product or service they are considering using. Inbound marketing can take them from doing a search on a product to delivering them directly to a business that can assist them. Traditional advertising relies upon a person needing a product or service at the moment that the advertising is broadcast.

Educating and Attracting

Inbound marketing is designed so that people approach a business, rather than having a business approach them. For example, someone might want to find a good way to clean rugs. A search engine might lead to an article that shows different techniques to clean rugs. The article might be posted on a website that belongs to a company specializing in cleaning rugs. After reading the article on rug cleaning, the user might decide to contact the company for information and pricing. In doing so, the customer is not annoyed by someone trying to sell them something. Instead, they are going to the business, needing assistance.

This, in turns, leads to rising in the search rankings, making the business even more visible to potential customers, at no additional charge. Traditional advertising costs more for higher visibility.It's easy to see, why inbound marketing is a much more effective form of marketing
