Should I Push or Pull?
“Inbound marketing focuses on creating quality content that pulls people toward your company and product, where they naturally want to be.
By aligning the content you publish with your customer’s interests, you naturally attract inbound traffic that you can then convert, close, and delight over time.” Hubspot
