The Lean Digital Marketing Playbook for small to medium-sized businesses

How to attract, convert, and retain customers without a big budget.

  1. Own Your ICP (Ideal Customer Profile)

Document industry, company size, buyer roles, pains, and success metrics.

  1. Create 3 Conversion Paths
  • Low intent: Blog → checklist → email.
  • Mid intent: Comparison page → demo video → trial.
  • High intent: Pricing page → book a call.
  1. Content That Compounds
  • 4 pillar pages (problems, solutions, pricing, comparisons).
  • 12 supporting posts answering specific “how much/how to” queries.
  • One signature case study with outcomes and numbers.
  1. Channels That Work on a Budget
  • SEO + Google Business Profile for local queries.
  • LinkedIn for B2B; Instagram/Reels for visual B2C.
  • Email nurture: 6-part sequence (welcome, problem, solution, proof, offer, FAQ).
  1. Measure What Matters
  • North Star: pipeline from organic + direct.
  • Input metrics: click-through rate, conversion rate, cost per qualified lead.
  • Run monthly experiments; sunset what doesn’t move the North Star.
