Use White Papers to See Green at #DMFB14

Creating content for small business marketing is challenging, even when it’s just blog posts.  But white papers and eBooks are valuable forms of content that should be part of a small business owner’s plan.

Here’s why:  68% of tech businesses use white papers to generate leads and move buyers through the sales funnel. Good whitepapers generate 5 to 10 qualified leads per month.

Producing white papers and ebooks can be time consuming and costly. After all that work and money, you still run the risk of poor results. Learn how to create, deploy, and leverage these tools for maximum value at the White Paper and eBook Marketing session on May 6. This informative workshop is part of the Digital Marketing for Business Conference being held May 6-8 in Raleigh.

Choosing topics, getting experts to provide content, and rewriting the content that engages readers  is not simple. Never fear: There are some key tactics you can use to find topics that generate qualified leads, simple interview processes for experts, and copywriting methods that you can use.
