Demand Capture
Marketing activity focused on converting people who already have existing intent, such as branded search, high-intent non-brand search, or comparison traffic.
How Demand Capture works in practice
Demand capture is the part of marketing that harvests intent already present in the market. Search ads, branded search SEO, comparison pages, and conversion-focused landing pages all play this role. These channels are often easier to justify because the path to revenue is shorter and measurement is cleaner. The limitation is obvious: you can only capture demand that already exists.
