The Marketing Book Podcast

Nick Steeves, Chief Product Officer at Wishpond, joins the Content Pros Podcast to share his success with pop-ups, microsites, and contextual call-to-actions.

Marketing Marketing to Marketers

Pop-ups are often thought of as necessary but also as cumbersome, annoying, and sometimes destructive when it comes to moving a prospect along the funnel. However, it is possible to have your cake and eat it too when it comes to conversions and pop-ups.
Nick has cultivated a career in successfully using pop-ups to turn prospects into leads and leads into sales. Through careful targeting and contextual CTAs, he takes the sting out of those previously pesky pop-ups and makes them an invaluable marketing tool.
He also has the in-depth knowledge in marketing required to actually market to the well-versed and wary audience of marketers themselves. When it comes to this group, it’s about losing the tricks and focusing on providing a no-nonsense value offer.
Another trick he keeps up his sleeve involves utilizing the power of microsites to drive SEO and transform your ranking from chump to champ. By creating a site loaded with carefully selected keywords and value-driven content that educates, inspires, and engages, your brand can draw a wealth of new qualified leads.

In This Episode

  • How effective, targeted pop-up management leads customers beyond annoyance to conversion
  • Why marketing to marketers means taking off the black hat and providing straight value
  • How creating a microsite can lead to keyword dominance
  • Why a convincing call-to-action means moving the CTA from the bottom to the top
