Consumer behavior has changed dramatically in recent years. Businesses were forced to accelerate the adoption of digital technologies, and as more and more consumer touchpoints move online, companies face the challenge of providing a consistent customer experience across a variety of channels.

In the absence of face-to-face meetings, companies are increasingly relying on email to communicate with prospects and customers. But the more emails we send, the pickier customers become about what content they find valuable and what content they find just annoying.

I hate selling. I don't think I'm good at it.

I used to say this countless times and usually people who know me smiled since I do run a HubSpot Platinum Solutions Partner agency, where I'm the main sales person. But honestly, saying that was not the case of fishing for compliments. I just don't like many salespeople's approach, because I find them pushy, salesy, and to aggressive. (To the sales people reading: sorry, I'm sure you're not all like that!).

When we’re in the process of buying something, each of us goes on a so-called buyer's journey. First we have to find out what we really want. How would we define the problem or challenge we are facing? Once we find this out, we start looking for possible solutions, something that would help us to solve the problem successfully. Finally, from the set of possible solutions (be it products or services), we choose the one we think is most suitable for us.
