Once you grab their attention, you can [move them down the sales funnel](https://www.responsiveinboundmarketing.com/blog/5-ways-to-move-visitors-and-leads-down-the-sales-funnel) to consideration and decision. But what are some of the best approaches and techniques for the awareness stage? What offers will take buyers from awareness to consideration? ![Three Examples Of Offers For The Awareness Stage](http://www.responsiveinboundmarketing.com/hs-fs/hubfs/0502_0001_Group_3.jpg?width=400&name=0502_0001_Group_3.jpg "Three Examples Of Offers For The Awareness Stage") **Raising Awareness** [The awareness stage](https://www.responsiveinboundmarketing.com/blog/a-buyers-journey-through-your-inbound-the-awareness-stage) is where customers realize that they have a need and that your business may be able to help them solve their problem. The beginning of the buyers’ journey is where people start doing research and you want to draw them to your business. Take a look at recent search queries to identify what people are seeking—most likely the search terms are fairly broad and generic. According to [Pardot](http://www.pardot.com), once buyers realize a need, 72% turn to Google, so make sure your SEO is on point so that readers can find you. And, you need to have appropriate, [quality content on your website](https://www.responsiveinboundmarketing.com/blog/why-content-is-the-key-to-qualified-prospects) so when they visit, they can understand right away what you offer and how you might be able to help them. Take advantage of this opportunity to help potential customers narrow down what they are looking for—information—just don’t scare them away with too-good-to-be-true offers. **What to Offer** As we said, buyers in the awareness stage are seeking information, so provide them with educational material that focuses on addressing their pain points, not hyping your brand. This is where white papers, reports, e-books, and the like are going to shine. Here are three examples: **1. [10 SEO Mistakes to Avoid During Your Next Web Site Redesign](https://www.responsiveinboundmarketing.com/website-redesign)** Why it works: This is a guide that nearly anyone with a website will benefit from—***Find out what the top ten SEO mistakes are by downloading this free guide + checklist***—and the checklist is a user-friendly bonus to walk people through the steps.

CRM Software Free Product Demo** Why it works: Offering a free demo allows potential clients to see exactly how your product works and how it can help them with customer relationship management. Plus, visual presentations are appealing and easier for less technical individuals to digest. They get a better understanding and you get that high-value email address. As with the examples above, we recommend that you build out a few campaigns for prospects [based on buyer personas](https://www.responsiveinboundmarketing.com/blog/building-content-for-targeted-buyer-personas). It’s a fact that, on average, nurtured leads produce a 20% increase in sales opportunities versus non-nurtured ([Demand Gen Report](http://www.demandgenreport.com)). Again, remember to focus on providing info and establishing credibility and not to push heavy sales pitches.
