Zig When They Zag - Season 2, Episode 4: The Difference Between Brand Building and Lead Generation

  • Summary

  • Difference Between Brand Building and Lead Generation

    There’s more than one kind of digital marketing approach. While most companies will benefit from brand building activities, not all businesses are a great fit for digital lead generation. In this episode, Kevin and I discuss the differences between the two styles of digital campaigns. Enjoy!

    What is Brand Building?

    Brand building is delivering a consistent message, look, feel, and story through consistent channels to the right audience. Many companies haven't thought through what their brand message is.

    What is Lead Generation?

    Lead generation is getting new people into your sales funnel so they develop into customers. Having a lead generation program setup can be much more effective in terms of reach and costs than hiring another outbound salesperson.

    Effective Lead Generation Needs Brand Building and Vice Versa

    If a movie is uninteresting, it doesn't matter how much it turns up in front of people, they won't want to watch it. On the other hand, a fantastic movie needs the word to be spread. 

    Do Both

    Build your brand with audiences who aren't ready to buy yet. Use lead generation to provide a clear path for those who are ready to buy. 

    The Bottom Line

    Most small businesses don't have the bandwidth or expertise to focus on both brand building and lead generation activities. They don't have the time or resources, either. The best option is by sticking to what they do best and trust their marketing actions to an expert partner like Hot Dog Marketing.
