So what is drip marketing? If you aren’t familiar with the term, you probably know what it is in practice. Drip marketing is the process of sending messages to prospects and customers at regular intervals. The term drip marketing refers to the steady process of ‘dripping’ your messages to your prospects. Think of it in gardening terms…if you dump a bucket of water on a plant, the plant will drown and die. Yet, if you give the plant drops of water over time, the plant will get the water it needs yet it won’t be over-watered. That’s the premise with drip marketing. By sending regular messages at appropriate intervals you won’t ‘over-water’ your prospects and you’ll successfully nurture each one until they’re ready engage with what you’re selling.
