Best practices of modern marketing & sales for talent acquisition leaders

Editor's Notes

  1. Key message: Compelling content is what pulls people through their purchase journey.Content is what attracts buyers to your brand or company – content that is relevant to that user and in the right context for them to consume it across their many devices. Effective content plays a role at every point in the buyers’ journey – and can even bring you back into the consideration set if you were not there to start.
  2. Key message: But the consumer behavior shifts create challenges for effective marketing.What this means for you is that your buyers are more informed, savvy and influential than ever before.Not only can they get most of the info they need to make a buying decision from online sources --- they get constant feedback from their networks to inform their decisions.In many cases they are 60% of the way through their purchase process before they connect with a brand or company.And they’re forming perceptions about brands – and eliminating brands from their consideration set – without those brands having an opportunity to share their perspective.

  7. Example of Advertising vs. Content MarketingOther examples: The Furrow magazine by John DeereRed Bull’s stunning contentRe-workKraft’s food & familyAmerican Express Open Forum: resource for small business. Now generates as many credit card inquiries (without pitching product) as any other mkg initiative from AMEXLinkedIn Talent Blog

  11. Your network increases by 324xThe opportunity is for 324x leverage on the collective relationships across your firm
  12. We looked at LTS accounts that closed after February 1st, 2013We looked at all connections that LTS sales reps had before January 1st, 2013The gap between these dates is intentional; we only want to consider connections that reps had before they actively started prospecting accounts. “Going in warm” means having a teamlink connection to an account and ensuring that the rep who closed the deal was aware of the connection (based on them viewing the profile of the connection)
