How to Improve Lead Nurturing using the LSL Model

Marketers struggle to create compelling content for their B2B lead generation campaigns. In fact, most lead nurturing campaigns consist of re-used "drip" emails and content that has existed for months and years. No rhyme or reason - just blast it out and hope for the best. In fact, these struggles are why so many companies look for lead generation companies like Find New Customers.



Check out these facts from MarketingProfs. The largest pie slice is the red one - Producing Engaging Content.
So how can marketers create engaging content for their B2B Lead Nurturing campaigns?

We suggest you use the LSL model.


What is the LSL model?
Don't be intimidated. The LSL model is simple human nature.
What do people enjoy?
  1. Laugh at something funny
  2. Story - with twists and turns
  3. Learn - especially something of interest that is new to me.
As you create videos, e-books, white papers, webinars, and other content, just ask yourself these questions:
  • Does this content make the recipient laugh? Is it funny?
  • Does this content fit into a larger story, with rich characters and plot twists?
  • Does this content educate them on an important business issue?
Without question, if you ensure your lead nurturing content fits the LSL model, you will enjoy much greater success. And if you need help, we invite you to check out Find New Customers.

Re: Franchise 'due diligence' checklist Re: Franchise 'due diligence' checklist - One of the things I focus on is this: Does the Franchise fit the Business Model you are interested in? Meaning, are you going to be doing what you want to do on a daily? For example, if you are a restaurant manager now and you hate your job because of the hours, then don't buy most food franchises. You have experience of course, so it is more comfortable, but you will basically be doing very similar duties and hours as you were before. I always go through a series of questions, answers, more questions, more answers etc... to help my clients figure out what Business Model they are most interested in, I do this before even discussing a single name with them, they tell me what the business model is and then I match them up to that type of business, explain the entire business model as best I can and then and only then do we discuss the name of the company. Too many times people come to me wanting to own "abc" name brand franchise, when they don't even understand what type of business it really is and what they will be doing every day.

Re: Review My: Trump 4 President Site Re: Review My: Trump 4 President Site - Trent, Thanks a lot. I appreciate the comment about run win lead. I changed it to Will he Run-Win & Lead. It's kind of a tag line meaning of course, will he run first off. Will he win second. And then will he lead us out of the mess the countries in right now. It's also the name of my newsletter. But above that, it kind of gives an overview of what the site includes. I thought of using it since it has longer legs than just will he run etc. as even if he does and wins, that phrase will be relevant still. I know, I can't help myself with the SBI banners, LOL But 70+% of the public is interested in earning some income from home and I hope to have a bunch coming there who have their personal economy in mind and looking for answers etc.
