SEO main driver of leads through thephone
NSK Inc. is an information technology consulting and outsourcing firm with a focus on small and medium business IT management.
The problem:NSK was spending too much time cold calling, and too much money on AdWords. On top of this, NSK's website was more of a static brochure than an engine for generating leads.
Solution 1: More effective SEONSK wanted to rank high for relevant terms like “IT managed services”. More than that, they wanted to focus their clientèle in Boston, so they made specific efforts to rank higher for terms with “Boston” in them. In doing so, they began their audience targeting at the search box, aiming to attract only people who fit the criteria they wanted.
Solution 2: BloggingNSK began publishing at least one blog post a week. Cathie (marketing manager) and her staff focused on only a few areas of expertise. They would use SEO keyword tools built giving them instructive suggestions on how to make each blog post better optimized for NSK's target keywords.
Solution 3: WhitepaperNSK captures leads in a few different ways. One is through their educational white papers on relevant topics such as Hybrid Clouds, a white paper outlining the pros and cons of cloud computing, or The 10 Things You NEED to Know About Managing BYODs, a guide on "bringing your own device" to work, a security concern in the IT world.
Solution 4: Lead nurturingNSK hosts “Lunch and Learn” sessions at their Boston-based office in order to educate people further about IT Consulting, industry best practices, and what options may be the best fit for various businesses. In order to attend one of these lunches, interested parties must register ahead of time on one of NSK’s Landing Pages.
