Discover how and why Research-Based Demand Generation works for marketing software and data companies, and digital marketing agencies.
Why Research- Based Demand Generation? Research reports are the most influential type of content marketers use to generate demand. According to a CMO Council study, research reports are the most influential type of content marketers use. Research-Based Demand Generation is a process we developed to generate leads with research content of interest to your target customers, and nurture those leads in the name of your brand to sales-ready status. As a marketing software or data company, or digital marketing agency, your prospective customers are marketing decision-makers with an interest in the facts about improving marketing performance; and facts are what our research provides.
The Difference Between Demand Generation and Lead Generation While on the surface, Demand Generation and Lead Generation appear to be similar practices and have similar goals, there is a difference. To put it simply, lead generation is only one aspect of a demand generation strategy. The basic premise of lead generation is to funnel prospective customers toward your company and convert them to leads. This is where the similarities end. Demand generation goes further by nurturing prospects with high-value content aligned with their needs, establishing your firm as an influencer or thought leader in your target market segment. Over time, a Demand Generation strategy will deliver a higher percentage of sales-ready leads that will more easily convert into paying customers.
