It is always one of the easiest ways to shorten your sales cycle. Focus on one topic per email so you aren't bombarding your lead with too much information at once. If you educate them overtime, with relevant content, you can move them through the funnel based upon which stage of the sales process they are in. Focus on educating your reader and offering solutions to their problems without being too "salesey." Remember that inbound marketing is about enticing and attracting prospects and leads, instead of intruding and interrupting like many traditional marketing techniques.

Harness the Power of Marketing Automation
Marketing automation refers to software that is designed to advertising database automate your marketing tasks. In essence, marketing automation nurtures leads through the buyer's journey (or sales funnel) with the use of content that is aligned with your prospects needs and interests. Marketing automation is a highly beneficial tool to use in your strategy because you can get more personalized with the content you send. You'll start sending content that is based on your prospects behavior and what stage they're in, rather than blasting general information. If your prospect is in the early stages of the funnel, you want them to be reading information that sparks an interest. If the prospect is moving further down the funnel, you want to provide them with information that motivates them to schedule a demo or purchase your offering.

Segment Your Audience
For a more efficient and effective strategy start segmenting your audience to improve your overall results. I highly recommend segmenting your audience by persona and lifecycle. The benefits of segmenting your contacts are endless, but just think of how much more organized your process will feel when you can differentiate your prospects and leads from your customers. With this in motion you can guarantee you're providing the right content at the right time.
