The Advantages of Using an Inbound Marketing System for Home Based Business
The advantages of using an inbound marketing system for home based business is that people are finding you through mediums such as social media networks and search engines, so instead of you blasting adverts out to potential customers, they are actually searching you out. How you do this is by establishing a web presence and branding yourself online. Although this process may take a bit longer and requires more effort on your part it has a number of long term benefits that make it worth the work.
Here are some of the advantages you will gain from instituting an inbound marketing system:
One big advantage of using an inbound marketing system is that it makes it much easier for you to allocate your resources. In other words you can control where and how people will be able to find your website, for example Facebook or Twitter. This also gives you the opportunity to control the kind of first impression you want to make. This way you can be sure that things are working the way you want them to, and if not then you can quickly change your tactics or make improvements to get the best results from your resources.
Another advantage is that you will be able to determine just how effectively your strategies are working. Let’s say for instance that you have a squeeze page that gives anyone who visits your website from Facebook, and signs up for your newsletter a free e-book. This will help to measure your conversion rates and you can then split test your landing page to get better conversions in the future.
Ultimately the consumer is the person who has all the power because they are the ones who make the decision on whether they want to take action or not. With an inbound marketing system in place you can improve your relationships with your customers and by using social media networks you can actively engage with your customers and be sure that they are satisfied with the product or service that you are providing. By presenting them with the opportunity to find you, instead of you actively seeking them out, you are allowing them the chance to feel that they are in control. This will also give you much happier customers.
Working with this type of marketing system forces you to integrate your various assets including your website, email campaigns, social profiles and squeeze pages. The advantages of doing this can make a huge difference to your company as it creates a central point that it brings all the functioning areas of your organization together.
Finally by integrating all of your digital assets for your home based business your customers will find it much easier to stay in contact with you and you with them, which makes the whole process of selling your products or service a more pleasant experience. So from this you can see that using an inbound marketing system has great benefits as it not only increases your communication with customers but at the same time minimizes your costs.

- Evan, putting it that way you may have a point - the effort doesn't seem to pay off.
If you could score webinars with people you profile I can see word getting around and that driving traffic to your site and exposing them to the content you already have on the site.
Based on the types of businesses approaching you to do these webinars you could also have them set the whole thing up and all you are doing is exposing it to the group. Example a webinar on Autoresponders and Email Marketing. I'm sure there are companies out there that will do the whole setup for you.
