Awareness
At this stage, we used paid traffic advertisements and various awareness initiatives to attract as many visitors and eyes as possible to the website.
Interest
We used re-targeting ads to further kindle their interest, once the visitors showed interest in the marketplace
Intent
After the interest phase, we made the option to the site visitors that they could become leads by downloading our lead magnet, providing us with their email ids, and becoming a lead. This would allow us to communicate with them in the future on a more privatized basis, specifically through email.
Purchase
After receiving their email IDs, we turned leads into customers by using email campaigns.

Customer loyalty and retention were ensured by email marketing campaigns presented in newsletter formats, webinars, and providing excellent support to customers.
