  • 78. 5 Things B2B Companies Can Do To Build Brand Affinity

    As digital marketers, we see lots of companies that are focused on the bottom of the funnel. For some reason, brand building isn’t a part of the marketing plan in many B2B organizations, but we believe it should be.   

    If you think about it, some of the largest brands really take their time to establish a strong brand and get people to like them and trust them way before they become their customers. They are working hard to build brand affinity - an emotional connection between a brand and its customers. It’s a combination of brand awareness, credibility, customer loyalty, and creating distinction around your brand that makes you more preferable over the competition.  

     In this episode of Growth Marketers Podcast, we talk about what brand affinity means and how you can build it as a B2B company. We also give some actionable tips on what you can do as an organization to build that brand affinity in your area and your particular niche.  

    So tune in for the podcast and send in more digital marketing questions. We’re always happy to help you out.

  • 75. Webinar Marketing in B2B: What Marketers Do Wrong and Why It Is Still Worth the Effort

    Five years ago, webinar marketing was the best trick from the playbook. Everybody was doing it for getting leads. And we still see webinar funnels now, but B2B marketers tend to have mixed feelings about it.  Some people love webinars, others hate them. Why is there such a difference in opinions?   

    One reason is that putting together a webinar is a lot of work and not everyone is eager to do it. There’s also a fear that they might spend a lot of time on preparation and nobody shows up. Plus, from a marketing standpoint, it can seem like an outdated method of lead generation.  

    However, those who are really opposed to making webinars underestimate the other side of it. There are multiple benefits you might not even think about - opportunities you can easily miss. For example, you can have 8 one-to-one calls a day or get 40 people to show up to your presentation in one hour. What’s more efficient?   

    In today’s episode of Growth Marketers Podcast, we’ve talked about the idea of running a webinar specifically for B2B. We share a lot of insights and good strategies that we implement ourselves and use for our clients. We also talk about the thought process you should have when creating the webinar so that it’s not salesy, robotic, or boring.  

    Tune in!

  • 74. Efficacy vs Efficiency: The Actual Meaning of Marketing Results

    Today’s world dictates new rules. And as much as they’d like to stick to traditional marketing, many B2B companies are forced to tap into digital. The problem is, however, that they expect immediate results. But when it comes to digital marketing, this is not the best way to look at it.   

    In marketing in general it’s never a question of whether something will work. It’s a matter of how we can make it work. And oftentimes, performance tracking and micro KPIs are more important than immediate ROI and macro KPIs.   

    In today’s episode of Growth Marketers Podcast, we dive a little bit deeper into measuring the effectiveness of our marketing efforts - what it really takes to see results in digital marketing and whether or not this is the right question to ask. We will define efficacy vs efficiency and talk about what it means for us as marketers.   

    Hopefully, you will enjoy it.

  • 73. How to Leverage Thought Leadership to Generate Demand For Your Product or Service

    A lot of our clients that are starting a new line of business or breaking into a new industry want to know how to generate demand for new products or services. And there’s generally been a lot of talk around demand generation lately.   

    One of the best ways to do it is through the process that we call building thought leadership. It’s essentially positioning yourself, your brand, or your company as an industry expert and opinion leader.  

    In this episode of the Growth Marketers podcast, we want to break down that topic and talk about different ways to generate demand or build a brand. Important note: we're talking specifically about demand generation, not lead generation.   

    So hopefully, you’ll find some actionable insights into building a true brand and creating thought leadership in your industry.  

    Enjoy!

  • 72. Something is NOT better than nothing. Why minimal efforts won’t bring any results in marketing

    Many companies treat their marketing like a salad bowl – a little bit of this, a little bit of that. But when they try to combine everything, it’s really not effective. The results turn out to be mediocre at best. And they kind of see it but they believe in this concept that something is better than nothing - a good old cliché we keep hearing everywhere. In marketing, however, such a mindset can be a mistake.   

    Why? Well, marketing is not a linear path, and you can look at every channel to find proof. Say, if you do one-tenth of an SEO that your competitors are doing, you aren’t going to get one-tenth of the traffic. Most likely, you’ll get nothing.   

    This idea that something is better than nothing makes sense in a lot of aspects of life, but not in marketing. In this episode, we are discussing various real-life scenarios we’ve seen in digital marketing over the years that illustrate how exactly doing something for the sake of it does not play out the right way. Enjoy!

  • 71. Death by Technology. Why Too Much Technology Behind Digital Marketing Can Be a Problem | Growth Marketers Podcast

    Today on Growth Marketers podcast, we are talking about the marketing technology landscape. As marketers, we’re used to measuring everything, from impressions to clicks to conversions. But did you ever wonder whether you have too much technology? Today, we dive into our obsession as marketers with tracking, attribution, and other technology and explaining why it is actually hurting us.  

    Because of this idea that everything in digital marketing is so visible and trackable, it’s very easy to allow your technology to drive your marketing strategy, not the other way round. But if you let that happen, you’re going to limit yourself to whatever the capabilities of that software you currently have.   

    Heavy reliance on available tools makes us throw out some of our fundamental values of marketing, including everything we’ve learned about what it means to be a marketer and what the actual role of marketing is. At the end of the day, having too much technology hinders our ability to market properly.   

    What we talk about today is what we believe in as marketers and what we’ve seen be effective. And a lot of it has to do with forgetting that doing too much tracking and too much attribution can also be a problem.   

    Tune in to this podcast. Hopefully, you guys will enjoy it!  If you find it useful, let us know with your like, and don’t forget to subscribe to our channel to make sure you don’t miss future episodes.
