The awareness phase of marketing pertains to growing your social following on Facebook™ and Instagram by telling stories of the ‘why’ behind your business, sharing information about your brand story, and simply growing fans and followers who interact with your entertaining and/or educational content online.
This is the lead generation phase of marketing to lukewarm audiences that you’ve built in the Awareness phase.
Once someone becomes a lead via a lead magnet, they are nurtured with additional content, such as tips, training, blog posts, long form posts, videos, etc, that contain added entertainment and educational value.
Webinar registrations to connect with clients, reminder ads, and nurture ads to stay top of mind can be part of this phase of advertising, where appropriate.
This phase generally focuses on how to become the authority for entertainment and educational content in your industry. It’s not just about how to use your products or services.
How-to’s are necessary but are often seen as boring if repeated over and over. If you want to be the be-all, end-all resource for your target market, you must rise to the occasion of becoming their go-to advice channel for all things related to your industry.
Email nurture should be happening at the same time as advertising nurture.
This is the sales phase of marketing to very warm audiences that have engaged with your content, become leads in your email database, visited your website, and/or downloaded your app, if that applies.
Offers are advertised for retargeting once someone visits your sales page but does not purchase yet, among other content to help convince the shopper to buy.
