• Increased Spending – A majority of businesses are increasing their inbound marketing spending in 2011, due in part to past success with inbound marketing.
• Shift to Inbound Marketing – Compared to two years ago, more marketers are shifting their lead generation budgets to inbound channels.
• The Low Cost Advantages – The recent growth of inbound marketing can be partly attributed to the facts that cost per lead is typically 62% lower for inbound-dominated organizations than for outbound-dominated organizations.
• Converting Leads – More companies are acquiring customers through blogs and social media in 2011 compared to 2009.
• Success by Audience – For companies that seek to acquire customers through a blog or social media sites, success depends on whether the goal is B2B or B2C. LinkedIn was more successful for B2B marketing, while Facebook was most successful for B2C.
