The Buyersphere & Your Social Media Strategy

Tackling the field of social media can be daunting. Many clients have been asking us: “Do I need to be on Facebook? Do I need to be on Twitter?”. This isn’t the first question your business needs to ask – it’s actually the last one.  You need to know who you want to reach before you can know where to reach them.
There’s a number of different methods you can use when developing your social media strategy. One that we’re fond of at Enquiro is Forrester Research’s POST method. POST stands for People, Objectives, Strategy, and Technology. One of the benefits [...]

How Buyersphere Insights Impact Your Content Development Strategy

Enquiro has an active research department that tackles everything from eye tracking studies to website user behaviour. One of their recent projects has been to tackle the problem of how business buys from business, which has been compiled into a book called The Buyersphere Project. B2B sales are notoriously challenging as you are not dealing with just one person but with all the complexities of an entire organization. Within an organization you find different people playing different roles and who have differing informational needs – which can be met at least in part by your website. When creating content for [...]

PPC Measurability: A Double Edged Sword

In marketing circles, the old adage: "Half my advertising money is wasted. The problem is that I don’t know which half!" is often regarded as marketing fact and has been more or less accepted as fact until now. In a down economy marketers are now heralding this statement no longer as a quote, but as a mission statement to finding where to invest money.  However, the very nature of this quote embodies the challenge that all marketers face: attribution. The famous marketing quote was reportedly said by William Lever, John Wanamaker, and F.W. Woolworth; begging the question: who gets the [...]
