The Digital Marketing & Sales Funnel What is a Digital Sales & Marketing funnel?

The funnel visualises a buyer’s journey from when they first become aware of your brand to when they purchase your product or service, and beyond to include retention. Each stage of the funnel helps to attract new prospects and convert them to leads and then customers, while tracking the performance of your campaigns. More and more ingredients buyers are researching ingredients online before reaching out to sales representatives to place an order. It’s time to evolve to meet this trend.

TOP of Funnel: This is the brand visibility and awareness stage.

Some of the Fi Marketing Services products that can help you achieve this are: Online Display Ads, Email Newsletter Ads & Interactive Infographics.

MIDDLE of Funnel: At the middle of funnel, the focus is on capturing and nurturing leads. Some products that can help you achieve this include: Retargeting and Premium Profile on Ingredients Network.

BOTTOM of Funnel: This is the stage focused on purchase, i.e. converting your lead to a customer, and then retaining them. The most effective products that can help you achieve this are the Custom Webinar and Custom Report.

Possibility to extend the audience even further

Cost effective as the most relevant prospects are targeted

What is Retargeting?

Ever look at a pair of shoes online, or a potential vacation spot, and then for the next couple of weeks you notice that ads for those same shoes or vacation spot seem to be following you around the internet? That’s ad retargeting. Retargeting uses cookies to track visitors of one website and then reach those same visitors with ads on other websites.

STEP 1

STEP 2

STEP 3

An internet user visits our website

The user exits the website

Your ad will be displayed on other websites the user visits

DID YOU KNOW?

Retargeting works so well because it only shows ads to the SPECIFIC people you are trying to reach – in this case, the website visitors of Ingredients Network, Fi Global Insights or any Food ingredients event website such as Food ingredients Europe.

Quantifiable Results

Receive detailed reports that allow you to see your campaign results in real time, including impressions, clicks, and geographical locations of ads served.
