<p>SpectraMedia&#8217;s website recently achieved the score of 99% which is great, but there is always a little room to improve. To put this in persecutive &#8211; as percentages can be misleading, this score is based on a comparison of our InBound and overall website marketing efforts. We currently sit at 29,008/3,706,969  via the HubSpot network, which means that of the millions of websites that have previously been evaluated, the algorithm ( based on 50 different metrics ) has calculated that our site scores higher than 99% of them in terms of its marketing effectiveness. Hubspot created WebsiteGrader, and are the masters of InBound marketing and Spectra has chosen to work closely with their team, which has enabled us to take what we already knew and push it to an all new level.

<p>A P.E.I. farmer is using an iPhone app to help him care for his cows.</p>
<p>Derwin Clow had seven cameras installed in his barn in Freetown, east of Summerside, and he can keep an eye on his most valuable assets from pretty much anywhere.</p>
<p>An app on his iPhone allows him to tune into any of the cameras for a live look at his herd.</p>

<p>Inbound marketing is a marketing strategy that focuses on getting found by customers. This sense is related to relationship marketing and the idea of permission marketing. We recommended that marketers &#8220;earn their way in&#8221; (via publishing helpful information on a blog etc.) in contrast to outbound marketing where they used to have to &#8220;buy, beg, or bug their way in&#8221; (via paid advertisements, issuing press releases in the hope they get picked up by the trade press, or paying commissioned sales people, respectively).</p>
<p>Traditional marketing (outbound marketing) is a marketing strategy that focuses on finding customers by building brand awareness through advertising and promotion. In contrast to &#8220;permission marketing,&#8221; a pejorative term for this type of marketing is &#8220;interruption marketing.&#8221;</p>
<p>To further clarify, Inbound marketing involves getting found by potential customers through search (opposite of Outbound Marketing). The shift from outbound to inbound marketing has led to new mediums of outreach to the public. Outbound marketing, also referred to as “old marketing” or traditional marketing, targets a broad audience using print ads, television ads, telemarketing/cold calls, direct mail/e-mail, etc. Inbound marketing, or “new marketing” and modern marketing, is a response to the recent change in consumer behavior. People are more in control of what information they receive and how. Rather than interrupting people to get their attention with emails, cold calls, commercials, etc. (outbound marketing), inbound marketing relies on the principle that visitors find and come to you. In outbound marketing, the company is in control. Using inbound marketing, the customer is in control.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It seems like most of us have gotten over the &#8220;cell phone brain cancer scare&#8221;. As a matter of fact, there has been a 5000% increase in data usage (on the AT&amp;T network in the U.S.) over the past three years.  This increase in data usage can be partially contributed to the smart phone which uses an average of 30 X the network space of a regular cellphone &#8211; an internet stick hogs an average of 1,300 &#8220;cellphones&#8221; worth of data.</p>
<p>Although this sharp increase in data usage might be causing issues with cell phone providers, tech savvy companies are laughing all the way to the bank while reaching out to consumers through these smart devices. What I&#8217;m talking about is the social media phenomenon &#8211; Twitter, Facebook, Linked-in, and of course RSS feeds.</p>
<p>And with this increase in data usage perhaps we should all be less worried about brain cancer and more worried about the organs of the lower body. Yet another reason to cut out texting under the table!</p>
