Inbound, Outbound. What Does It All Mean? Today Tom Schwab gives us a lesson in ecommerce. What exactly does your NPS or Net Promoter Score say about your business and it’s future success? Should you implement inbound or outbound marketing strategies? The terms are often tossed around but what do they truly mean and how can business leaders implement them to effectively build sustainable relationships with their customers? Outbound marketing is often composed of interruption-based ad promotions; email promotions, ads on the highway, these are all outbound. Outbound marketing tends to be annoying and invasive to customers. On the other hand inbound marketing is composed of content that answers questions. Blog posts and social media content, this very podcast, all are fine examples of inbound marketing that seek to help customers by offering advice or a product or service. This approach builds a sustainable, life-long relationship with customers based on trust.
