How It Helps Your Business English

What this resource offers:

The page lists one hundred marketing terms in alphabetical order, from A/B testing through to XML sitemap, each numbered and explained in a paragraph of a few sentences. The entries cover analytics, buyer personas, calls to action, inbound marketing, search engine optimization and the rest of the vocabulary a marketing team uses daily, and many link on to a fuller article.

How to use this resource:

You read the glossary straight through once to see how much of the vocabulary you already hold, then keep the page open and come back to a term the moment it appears in a document or a meeting. Because each entry is a paragraph and not a line, you also learn where the term belongs and what sits next to it. The links at the end of an entry take you further when one of them matters to your own work.
