Frequently asked questions
What is demand generation in marketing?
Demand generation — or demand gen — is a marketing term that refers to the creation of demand for a product or service. The goal is to build brand awareness in order to generate high-quality leads that will eventually be converted into customers. Not all leads are created equal, though. In order for demand generation to be effective, the leads must be high quality and relevant to your target audience.
Demand generation for technology companies is typically done through marketing activities such as advertising, public relations, content marketing and search engine optimization.
What is the difference between lead generation vs demand generation?
The terms lead generation and demand generation are often used interchangeably, but there is a difference between the two.
- Lead generation is the process of generating interest in a product or service with the goal of eventually converting that interest into a sale. Leads are people who have expressed interest in your product or service by providing their contact information. Once you have generated a lead, you then need to nurture that lead through direct outreach until they are ready to make a purchase.Examples of lead generation strategies include:
- PPC ads
- SEO
- Content marketing
- Social media marketing
- Email marketing
- Cold calling
- Trade shows
- Networking events
- Free trials
- Demand generation is the process of creating demand for a product or service. It’s about making potential customers aware of your product or service and getting them interested in what you have to offer so that they will eventually make a purchase. Here are some demand generation strategies:
- Advertising
- PR
- Content marketing
- Social media marketing
What are the best demand generation strategies?
Different strategies can be used for demand generation.
A common approach is to create content (such as blog posts, ebooks and infographics) that speaks directly to the needs of your target audience. By providing valuable information that solves a problem or addresses a pain point, you can generate interest and build trust with potential customers.
Another effective strategy is to run targeted ad campaigns on social media or search engines. These ads can be tailored to reach individuals who are most likely to be interested in what you have to offer. For example, you can target people based on their location, age, gender, interests or even previous buying behavior. Ensuring your ads are seen by the right people can lead to more sales down the line.
