Online marketing classes often present lead generation techniques, but typically only discuss one or a handful. But I want you to know that there is a wide spectrum of alternatives for you. And remember, if you are new to online marketing, just master a couple or three. I recently wrote my recommendations of techniques for newcomers. Here is a list of the 20 most popular techniques. Think of this list as the desert tray at your favorite resaurant!
So, here it is:
Top 20 Lead Generation Techniques (in no particular order)
o Blogging
o Article Marketing
o Social Bookmarking (yes it can generate leads)
o Hub Pages
o Squidoo Lenses
o Video Marketing (one of my very favorite)
o Twitter Marketing
o Facebook Marketing (excellent for age 25 plus)
o Audio Marketing (mp3, podcasts, audio e-books)
o Forum Marketing
o MySpace Marketing
o Directory Marketing
o Press Release Marketing
o Banner Advertising
o Ezine Advertising
o Facebook Advertising
o PPC Advertising (Google, Yahoo)
o Free Classified Advertising (online & offline)
o Radio Advertising (powerful if used right)
o Newspaper, Trade Journal & Magazine Advertising
Okay, if you’re a purist, I admit that the last two are essentially offline techniques. But they are still very powerful.
There are so many techniques…but I agree with you we must simply start with just a few and then move forward. Great list by the way!
