As a SaaS marketing professional, you know that getting your product in front of the right audience is key to driving qualified leads and growing your business. But with so many marketing channels and strategies to consider, it can be overwhelming to know where to start.
At Univelocity, we’ve been helping SaaS companies improve their marketing and increase their qualified leads for over a decade. Here are some tips and a checklist to help you get started:
Conduct a comprehensive marketing audit
Before you can start improving your marketing efforts, you need to understand where you currently stand. Conduct a comprehensive marketing audit of all your assets, including your website, social media profiles, email campaigns, and content marketing efforts. Analyze your website traffic, engagement rates, and conversion rates to identify areas for improvement.
Perform an SEO audit
Search engine optimization (SEO) is critical to driving organic traffic to your website. Conduct an SEO audit to identify any technical issues that might be hurting your search engine rankings, such as broken links, slow loading times, and missing alt tags. Then, develop a roadmap to fix those issues and improve your overall SEO.
Analyze your reporting and attribution
It’s important to have clear, accurate reporting on the success of your marketing efforts. Make sure your reporting is integrated with your customer relationship management (CRM) system to ensure transparency with your executive team. Use tools like Google Analytics and HubSpot to analyze your marketing metrics, such as website traffic, lead generation, and customer acquisition.
Develop a marketing game plan
Once you’ve completed your audits and analyzed your reporting, develop a marketing game plan that includes pay-per-click (PPC) advertising, content writing, cold emails, nurture tracks, and retargeting campaigns. Fill any gaps in your marketing team to ensure you have the resources needed to execute your plan successfully.
Evaluate and connect your marketing automation tools
Marketing automation tools like HubSpot, Marketo, and Pardot can streamline your marketing efforts and help you achieve your goals more efficiently. Evaluate your current tools and consider connecting them to your CRM for better transparency and more accurate reporting.
