Whittemore Becomes HubSpot Certified in Contextual Marketing

KINNELON, N.J. - June 4, 2015 - PRLog -- Christine B. Whittemore, chief simplifier of Simple Marketing Now, an inbound marketing strategy consultancy, is now certified by HubSpot, an all-in-one marketing automation software provider, in the use of its contextual marketing tools.

Context or contextual marketing means creating a relevant online content experience for website visitors based on the context of their visit. In the case of websites hosted on HubSpot’s Content Optimization System or COS, a visitor’s context includes where a visitor comes from, whether the visitor is on a mobile device or desktop computer, anonymous or known or even a first-time visitor rather than a frequent one. The COS is an integrated website, blog and landing page system, optimized for viewing on all screens, including mobile devices.

“Website visitors increasingly expect a personalized user experience which recognizes their past interactions,” says Whittemore. “It’s what Amazon does for each of us every time we visit and interact with the site.”

Context marketing requires a software solution such as the HubSpot COS which includes smart content modules, smart CTAs, personalization tokens, smart form fields for progressive profiling and smart html modules.

“To create context, it’s critical for a business to really understand its customer personas, what matters to each during the buying process and to integrate that intelligence into the marketing automation software solution. If one persona is a professional who’s always on a mobile device, it’s important to deliver thoughtful mobile friendly solutions. That’s what increase the likelihood of a website visitor becoming a customer,” adds Whittemore.
