Generate Qualified Leads Not Just Clicks

Marketers face a common challenge across industries and verticals. Clients demand results. Yet many campaigns optimize for volume and vanity metrics. Businesses and advertising agencies want to generate qualified leads, not just clicks. The pressure to show immediate results often distracts marketers. They celebrate high engagement metrics while ignoring lead quality. Meanwhile, competitors capture better prospects with strategic approaches. The difference lies in optimization philosophy. Clicks Aren't the Goal—Leads Are A click represents interest, not intent to purchase. Many clicks come from curiosity seekers, job hunters, or competitors researching your client's approach.

Hyper-Local Targeting

People like convenience, even when it comes to hiring a personal injury attorney. Local is often synonymous with convenient. Even large regional and national firms often have multiple offices to increase convenience. Capturing more clients who live locally is a great way to increase business. Successful local advertising requires hyper-local targeting. Every practice needs to define what is hyper-local. Hyper-local in urban settings is very different than in rural towns. Physical attributes affect convenience. A major thoroughfare can make 20 miles relatively convenient. Whereas a river with no crossing for 15 miles can make a 2-mile radius insurmountable.

The Resurgence of Audio

Marketing plans that plot a prospect’s journey and integrate messaging and tactics to seamlessly move that person to a conversion are the most successful. Let’s talk about how and why. The Way People Buy Has Changed Today’s consumers don’t use just one platform to make decisions. They move from social media to websites, from podcasts to reviews, and sometimes [...]

Media Convergence – Using Streaming and Traditional TV Together

The way people watch television has changed. What used to be one screen is now many. Viewers watch live news on their TVs, then switch to a streaming app on their phone. For marketers, this shift isn't a problem, it’s an opportunity. Because smart advertising hasn't changed.
