Funnel Marketing and Pirate Metrics - What are they and how do they work?
Manage episode 364866717 series 3474463
On the last episode, I talked with Georgiana Laudi, co-author of Forget the Funnel. And that led to questions around 'what, actually, is the Marketing Funnel"?!
So this week, I explain some of the models that marketers use when we talk about Demand Generation. And talk about the pros and cons of each.
I describe the five stages of a typical Marketing Funnel - Awareness, Interest, Consideration, Conversion, and Loyalty; and use the example of Moo's marketing approach to highlight how this can be put into practice.
Pirate Metrics were developed specifically for SaaS companies and tech start-ups; and I explain how that compares to the traditional funnel.
And I introduce the concept of MQL/SQL - Marketing Qualified Leads and Sales Qualified Leads.
