golfers spend $25 billion annually on green fees and golf products.

11. Business-to-business marketing has fundamentally changed the
past two years. Publishers now offer agency-like services while
agencies help businesses build & manage audiences. Why?
Three key reasons:
1. When the “great recession” of 2008 reduced marketing budgets publishers and
agencies began searching for new revenue.
2. New consumer technologies (i.e. devices, social media, high-speed wireless delivery)
are re-writing the rules of marketing and customer engagement.
3. The Internet continues to condition businesses to expect media measurement.
Introduction Strategy Highlights Conclusions About
12. Three Trends for Business-to-Business Publishers
1. Companies will become ‘brand publishers’ as they build and manage their own
audience using tools like email newsletters, social media, ebooks and mobile apps.
The B2B marketer’s role is to help them manage their audience: define and write new
content, apply best practices and find new audience members.
2. Publishers will open their internal systems to business partners. For example, a
publisher could manage an industry-wide database of contact information and allow
access based on certain conditions.
3. Consumers are replacing businesses as the driving force behind device adoption and
media consumption. They are educated about capabilities and their personal usage is
creating high levels of expectations. B2B marketers can help ‘brand publishers’
(businesses) secure the right content into the right formats for audience engagement.
