B2B Marketing for $100 - B2B Marketing and Sales Tip #173
As I was working on my FREE list last week I noticed I seemed to also be building a list of things that we as B2B Marketers can do that require minimal cost, like less than $100.
- StumbleUpon advertising – be very targeted with your ad and your landing page. Each click only costs you $.05. I’ve only heard good stuff about this, we’ll be trying this one immediately.
- Long Tail PPC keywords – think niche, pick words or phrases people would use to search for your EXACT solution. The landing page is just as important as your ad. You’re goal is to convert unknown visitors into known leads. Remember you can track companies visiting your landing pages using ReachForce Convert.
- Survey Monkey or Zoomerang – both have free versions or subscription pricing (for more features) of about $20/per month. Create a survey and use it for lead generation, thought leadership or PR. People are interested in what their peers think and are doing, share your results with the participants.
- PRWeb – write a news release and link it up. Add an offer to the news release or offer additional content on a landing page with the full announcement.
- Start a blog – you can do this for free but you might consider investing in your own look (vs. stock templates and photos). Regularly updated content helps your SEO too.
- Video/Podcast Series – you can add them to your website and use them for lead generation programs. Get a FLiP camera and set up your YouTube account and you’re ready to go. Remember to keep your videos and podcasts short and to the point.
- Email campaign - If you don’t already use an email or marketing automation system, check out VerticalResponse. Emails start at less than $.02 a piece.
I’m sure my short list is only a beginning of things you can do for about $100, please feel free to add to the list if you’ve got more.

This is good to know. I was unaware of Stumble advertising. I will work on a survey to generate leads. I had read about SurveyMonkey somewhere else. Thanks for the reminder.
