What Is Lead Nurturing?

Have you ever dealt with a sales person that didn't understand your needs? Convincing you to buy today was their only goal. Lead nurturing is the opposite. It fosters relationship building. Through every step of the buyer's journey, lead nurturing keeps you front-and-center with potential buyers. It allows you to build trust over time.

Generating leads means creating selling opportunities that will occur over time. And as these prospects are forming decisions online, and sometimes without your knowledge, building understanding and trust is essential.
