B2B Marketing Results Business owners and marketing executives wanting to achieve more from their business-to-business (B2B) marketing efforts rely on Innovaxis to create customized marketing programs that increase demand, leads and sales – starting with a marketing audit.   Your customized marketing program starts with development of a marketing strategy that identifies the right combination of inbound and outbound marketing to achieve your sales and marketing goals over the next 1-3+ years. This effort typically starts a marketing audit, possibly combined with market research, and leads to creation of a strategic marketing plan.   Execution of your strategic marketing plan consists of both digital and content marketing. Thought leadership content is developed (blogs, case studies, eguides, etc.) and spread by enhancing and leveraging your website, digital marketing campaigns (email, PPC), and marketing automation (Innovaxis is a HubSpot and Zoho partner). Your customized marketing program will also help you get the most out of traditional (non-digital) marketing efforts, including advertising, PR, direct mail, tradeshows, and may also include product management, channel marketing, and value-based pricing support.   Innovaxis marketing programs typically pay for themselves in the first 9-18 months, generating an ROI over 300% in the first 2-3 years by aligning your sales and marketing teams, increasing demand generation, and converting more leads into sales.   Are you a good fit for a customized marketing program from Innovaxis? If you see value in taking a strategic and holistic B2B marketing approach, understand that marketing results come from an open and collaborative effort, and value working with a strategic partner instead of a vendor – then let’s talk.
