Webinars – engage your target audience through webinars, effectively online presentations. Not only are they significantly less expensive than hosting events but you will find them far easier to attract potential clients from all of the UK and further afield.
Social Networking – social networking is not all about Facebook and My Space. The advent of social media has lead to a number of business to business social networking sites springing up, some of which are extremely effective in helping you uncover new business opportunities.
Search Engine Optimisation – more and more business buyers are turning to the search engines to help them find suitable suppliers and business partners.

Data Capture – timing if often vital when trying to secure that new business contract. It is great having an online marketing strategy that creates interest in your website and business but make sure that you collect the details of as many visitors to your site as possible. Visitors may not be looking to buy from you or your competitors now but they may well be in the future and you need to make sure you can build a relationship with them before then.
Email Marketing – as you begin collecting the contact details of your website visitors you must then have an email communications plan in place. Its important that the emails you send to you database are worthwhile being read. Its unlikely your database will be that interested in your latest customer win or where your next team night out will be. Make sure the communication you send them adds value to their own work, make it insightful and thought provoking.
Blogs – everyone is at it. Well, not quite, but a company blog is a great way to communicate to your target audience. However, you need an angle, if you really want your audience to respond to your blog. Provide compelling content and you’ll find other people wanting to link to your blog which in turn will assist with your search engine optimisation strategy.
