Crafting Irresistible Incentives for Referral Marketing Campaigns

Brands can become thought leaders—that is, respected authorities in their particular field—over time and if they can captivate audiences with quality content. This will help them to establish themselves "a name" in a field that can be quite competitive, like the professional services where Pegasus is included (Ruffolo, 2018). Such a high profile helps audiences to be deeply engaged, shapes their impressions and their capacity to act, thereby producing 

excellent leads and fresh business (Linkedin Corporation, 2017).For Carter (2013), LinkedIn speeds the networking process and removes the physical obstacles of in-person interactions, much as other social media sites. Turner (2015) argues that the platform is only a simpler approach for salespeople to find possible leads based on the prospects they have previously 

created trust with; it should not be considered as a substitute for in-person interactions. Online vs offline is, for the author, a supplement rather than a decision.Reports show that 79% of B2B Marketers rate LinkedIn as the most effective social networking site (Crowd Research Partners, 2015), 89% consider it the best platform to achieve marketing objectives 

Organizations declare it the most popular

social media platform for their type of business (Siamagka et al., 2015).Turner (2015) notes in his writing on LinkedIn's opportunities that although job searching and recruiting are the most often used functions on the platform, the technique of using additional value really shows itself as manifested in content marketing.This idea is presented by Content Marketing 

n.d.) as a "strategic marketing approach focused on creating and distributing valuable, relevant, and consistent content to attract and retain a clearly defined audience — and, ultimately, to drive profitable customer action." Stated differently, content marketing is more about offering knowledge and value than it is about proving competence and obtaining website traffic or relevant email addresses to finally turn a lead into a client and close a 

transaction (Carter, 2013; Houlahan, 2016).Both directly from their personal accounts or from a company page - both previously utilized by Pegasus - which need to be complete and perfectly optimized in case a prospective client searches for companies, products and services on LinkedIn.The author claims that if an employee is helpful, Regarding content marketing tools, in personal profiles they go beyond shared updates; there is the possibility to

Since each article is attached and becomes part of the profile published it, Pulse provides extra chances to position the user (and hence the company) as an expert and a thought leader instead of 

replacing an external website or blog, where Sammons (2015) advises users to continue to post original content first. Relationships with potential clients will be readily created and the article will reach not only inside but also outside of LinkedIn 2014 if there is a good covering of important, engaging, highly relevant issues in a professional and easy to follow approach. 

Carter (2013) claims that they are businesses like a LinkedIn profile, offering a chance to accomplish anything from product and service sales to attracting staff members, compile followers, handle public relations, even raise the company's search engine result page rating. They will thus need to be completely optimized since the degree of followers acquired will 

To take advantage of the chance to share 

interesting and captivating material in the form of status updates, a feature accessible both in personal profiles and on corporate pages Sammons (2015) finds to be a major source of visibility and interaction. The author describes them as brief postings with all kinds of contenttext, photographs, links, videos, slide presentations—that must be consistently released since followers won't be thinking about the business if they don't see changes 

showing up often (Sammons, 2015).The LinkedIn Corporation (2014) claims that these status updates are a quite successful approach to build rapport with prospects. They show up on their LinkedIn feed when posted; should they be encouraged to like, comment on, and share, the material will be more widely visible in LinkedIn's ecosystem.For Bodnar & Cohen (2012), 

they are a useful tool for driving quality and target leads to blog entries and landing page numbers of focused, methodical approaches to interact with prospects and later convert them into sales leads.LinkedIn's capacity to create leads results from its main concentration on letting users value one another.

Recognizing this bias in human perception, hotel chains, for example, have largely eliminated the need for business travelers to wait in line for checkout in the

Best Practices for Referral Marketing in USA-Based Marketplaces

in a few channels, devices, or applications. In addition to redesigning the discrete touchpoints that make up a customer journey, companies need to take a critical look at their most important customer journeys which could last from several days to several weeks— in order to manage customer perceptions throughout the entire journey. Redesigning the entire journey to incorporate the principles of behavioral psychology listed above has the potential  yield sustained improvements in customer satisfaction. For example, a leading home-mortgage company has embedded many of these principles in the process of approving mortgage applications. It consolidated all the information it requires from prospective  borrowers and asks for it up front. This serves to dispatch negative customer experiences early in the 90- to 120-day approval journey. Thereafter, the company schedules regular touchpoints where agents proactively provide positive news to customers as the process moves forward thro...

Lessons Learned from Business Conflicts in the USA and Canada

Image
In 2017, Canadians commemorate the 150th anniversary of Confederation. Reflecting on how Canadians in the 1860s dealt with their time's national security concerns can teach us some lessons that can help improve policy now.  In the 1860s, the inhabitants of British North America confronted an existential security threat: the possibility of an impending invasion by the US. Older people from that era might recall the devastation inflicted by the War of 1812. The American Civil War (1861-1865) intensified pre-existing tensions between the British Empire and the United States, raising fears of a replay of the earlier struggle, but this time with a deadlier generation of weapons. As the Fathers of Confederation assembled in Charlottetown and Quebec, the Civil War was coming to an end, and British North Americans were concerned that if the South was destroyed, Lincoln would send the Union Army north to invade Canada. Throughout the 1860s, the Fathers of Confederation and other British Nor...
