If I had to start demand gen via paid media from scratch, I would do the following: 👉 Find one channel where your potential prospects hang out the most and that’s your paid distribution channel. 👉 Segment your ICP fit cold account book by persona level, run ads catering to the persona's use case to pique their interest. 👉Capture ad engagement and segment accounts by account level engagement. 👉Build a repository of ad touch points, that completely educate prospects inside and out about the product, across the accounts with multiple engagement levels. The list of ad touch points all put together is equivalent to the entire website content. Distribute ad touch points based on where they fit in across the funnel. 👉 Optimise campaigns for in-feed consumption. 👉 Meanwhile, try finding out buying triggers from the entire account book. Hyper segment the account book based on buying intent signals and run personalized campaigns to convert them. 👉 When you start noticing target accounts scheduling meetings through direct traffic, organic search, referrals, word of mouth or any other source, it's a sign that this approach is working out. Keep educating till your prospects convert. Simultaneously, look for account's buying intent trigger to convert them. This is what we do at RevenueHero. #demandgeneration #b2bmarketing #demandgen #paidmedia #saas
