Generating Sales through Digital Marketing


Listen Later

Every organization, especially start-ups and SMEs have this question. And its definitely a question to be asked and to be answered.

Well, as most of us know Digital Marketing is split into 2 – Organic Marketing and Inorganic Marketing. Organic is where you generate leads / sales with out any paid ads, and inorganic is where you generate leads / sales through paid channels. Note that, Content is the key in both the cases! In inorganic marketing, we can generate leads via channels like Google Ads, Facebook Ads, Affiliates, etc., You Pay – You Get.

Now, the Ten Thousand Rupees question is that – How do you generate leads / sales through organic marketing? A million dollar questioner would already know the answer. Organic Digital Marketing primarily “influences the sale“, it could either be a Sale or a No Sale – depending on the kind of (or lack of) Digital Marketing being done.

Any potential customer these days:

  1. Will first go to Google and search for what kind of company you are.
  2. And if and only if they like what they see (read Organic Marketing) will they even think of connecting with you.
  3. It could be the activity on your Facebook / LinkedIn pages, blogs on your website, your online client testimonials, YouTube channel, etc, etc.,
  4. All these should give them a positive vibe about the company they are to deal with.
  5. Which in the end will convert to a lead or a sale when they meet you / your sales team or when they see your advertisements.
  6. Digital Marketing as a whole will definitely generate sales – but if any one is looking for immediate results, then they could always opt for the inorganic / ads route; but even then organic marketing matters. Digital Marketing will need a good amount of Time, Effort and Quality to actually make any sense or give any results. And all businesses should know that there is no escaping Digital Marketing (Organic / Inorganic) and sooner they start the better.
