  • S2 E1 - The future of B2B video marketing with Gaetano Nino DiNardi

    YouTube is the sleeping giant of B2B.

    Everyone knows it has A LOT of potential and value...
    But no one really knows to properly leverage it.
    (There's just very little content on the subject)
    Which is why for the first episode back of the Winning on Video Podcast...
    I wanted to bring someone who could actually share unique insights about the channel (based on real lived experience, not BS theory)
    That person... Gaetano!
    During our conversation, we discussed:
    🔥 A personal story about how a YouTube video influenced Gaetano to buy a Coffee machine and how it relates to B2B.
    🔥 Why the real opportunity in the world of B2B content is video, not AI.
    🔥 How small teams (and large) can practically get started with video content.
    This was one of my favourite conversations I've ever recorded... Gaetano dropped a ton of gems that I know you'll find super valuable 😎
