In this always-on era, it has never been more important for marketers to find the right lead generation mix in order to bring in prospects and convert them to customers.

Both inbound and outbound lead generation have their places in a marketer’s toolbox: 76% of marketers in North America in 2017 said they used inbound marketing as their primary strategy, while 68% of marketers said paid advertising is an “extremely important” part of their overall strategy.
