Why the Sales World Needs Inbound Marketing

In the old days of business, the salesperson had all the power.

Every piece of information the consumer received came directly from them.

Salespeople had absolute control, and the buyer just had to hope that they were giving them the best deal possible.

This was how it worked for a very long time - until the Internet came in and changed it all.

Suddenly, consumers could do their own research. They could do their own comparisons.

Now, the shoppers had all the power.

Currently, the average person does a whopping 70% of their research online before even contacting a salesperson.

A far cry from the days of the door-to-door vacuum salesman.

Traditional sales use outbound marketing and old advertising methods to try and interrupt people - but the thing is, people don't want to be interrupted anymore.
