Awareness
Content here should largely be educational and
help the individuals connect the dots from the
problem to how they may be able to solve it Example: An educational e-book explaining
more about your industry
Middle of the Funnel Consideration
Our goal is to present them with the
solution and show them the complexities

Example: Case studies, comparison

solution to the problem
