Joe PulizziHow to Build Your B2B Marketing Empire From the Ground Up
As we celebrate and reflect on our 10th anniversary at the MarketingProfs B2B Marketing Forum, let's look to the future with hope and excitement. Let's learn from what has worked, and abandon what hasn't. Let's challenge one another to achieve epic results. Let's build to last.
2017 State of Marketing Report
The document discusses marketing insights from a survey of 3,500 global marketing leaders. Key findings include:
1. Marketers continue struggling with gaining a single customer view and leveraging disparate data sources, which are made more difficult by new channels and elevated customer expectations of personalization.
2. While most marketers recognize the importance of coordinated journeys across channels, over half use identical broadcasts and only a quarter evolve messages.
3. High performers are much more likely than others to coordinate heavily across channels and evolve messages, and see significant benefits to customer loyalty, revenue, and other metrics from connected journeys.
2020 Content Marketing Benchmarks, Budgets, and Trends - North America
Most B2B organizations have small content marketing teams, with over half having just one person or no dedicated team. Content creation is the activity most commonly outsourced. While goals focus on top-of-funnel awareness, more organizations report using content marketing successfully for deeper goals like nurturing and revenue generation compared to past years. Analytics tools and email software are the most used technologies. Documented strategies are becoming more prevalent and correlate with success.
How to Create Epic Content that Builds Your Brand AND Drives Business
This document provides guidance on creating effective content marketing through three steps: 1) Put the why before the what by focusing on your customers' needs and interests rather than just your products, 2) Build your audience by establishing expertise on topics people care about to attract and engage more people, and 3) Create content that is worth sharing by tapping into popular conversations and showing the human side of your organization to reach new audiences. Examples are given of how Kinvey successfully grew its community through high-quality content marketing.
The 2012 State of Inbound Marketing Webinar
This document summarizes the key findings from a 2012 study on the state of inbound marketing:
1. Inbound marketing techniques like blogging and social media generate lower cost leads than outbound methods like trade shows and direct mail. Most marketers are maintaining or increasing budgets for inbound tactics.
2. Inbound leads convert to customers at higher rates. Data shows social media and blogging drives real customer acquisitions. Over 70% of businesses blog at least weekly.
3. Social media and SEO are becoming more important sources of leads, while importance of direct mail is declining. Company blogs are increasingly valued, with 25% seeing them as critical and 81% as useful.
7 Content Marketing Trends That Matter in 2017
The document summarizes 7 top content marketing trends for 2017:
1. Mapping customer micro-moments to understand their full customer journey and create helpful content at the right moments.
2. Creating content for current customers to improve retention rates which are more profitable than acquiring new customers.
3. On-the-fly content creation using mobile devices and editing apps to create high-quality, real-time content.
4. Brands moving from polished fiction stories to more authentic nonfiction content by embracing unfiltered, documentary-style communication.
5. Increased focus on content testing to determine what content works best and be truly committed to content marketing efforts.

Your buyers are changing the way they make purchasing decisions. To help you understand how that will impact your business, Demand Gen Report and Demandbase are bringing you the latest trends and real-world insights on buyer behavior.

Buyer Behaviour
Behavior can be defined as the acts of individuals in making decisions to spend resources on goods and services. Understanding consumer behavior and what motivates customer purchases is an important part of marketing. Businesses research questions like who buys products, how and where they buy, and why, in order to understand what influences customer decisions and better meet their needs. Consumer decisions are affected by social, cultural, personal and psychological factors.

Analysing the note book 1
The opening scene uses fades and slow romantic music to set the tone for a romantic genre film. A single person is seen peacefully boating on a lake, creating intrigue about where they are going. White birds then lead to a woman staring out a window of a white house, possibly feeling trapped. Another character is a nurse asking the woman to bed, hinting she requires care. A man is also introduced looking in a mirror, his voiceover sharing his feelings with the audience. The slow pace of revelations in this beginning suggests the full plot will take time to unfold.
A walk to remember rough draft

This document discusses the challenges of research communication and visibility in today's information-overloaded world. It proposes that researchers should play a more active role in promoting their own work through tools that help explain and share their research. The document introduces KUDOS, a web-based service that aims to put researchers in control of increasing the impact of their published articles. KUDOS would provide tools for researchers to add plain English descriptions and link their articles to related materials to improve discoverability. It would also help researchers share their articles through their networks and measure the effects on article usage and citations. KUDOS dashboards would give researchers and institutions visibility into these outreach activities.September 23 2015 NISO Virtual Conference: Scholarly Communication Models: Ev...

This document summarizes the film "A Walk to Remember". It describes the main characters Landon Carter and Jamie Sullivan, who have an unexpected romance despite coming from different worlds. When Jamie is diagnosed with leukemia, their love for each other helps them make the most of the time they have left together. The film conveys a message about finding true love that can change one's life.
San Andreas: A Movie Analysis
The document summarizes facts and fallacies about earthquakes along the San Andreas Fault as depicted in the movie San Andreas. Some facts include that the San Andreas Fault forms the boundary between the Pacific and North American tectonic plates, it is over 1,250 miles long, and there is a 99% chance of a 6.7 magnitude or greater earthquake in California within the next 30 years. Fallacies include that earthquakes of the scale shown in the movie are unlikely, scientists cannot predict large quakes with accuracy, and the fault will not generate tsunamis or consume buildings as seen in the film. The document aims to separate scientific facts from Hollywood fiction around earthquakes in California.
A Walk To Remember | 23 August 2015 | Neil Bester
The document discusses how God is first and foremost a father. It provides several biblical passages from both the Old and New Testaments that portray God taking on the role of a father. Specifically, it notes passages from Ephesians, 2 Corinthians, Matthew, and Exodus that emphasize God choosing, reconciling, and showing compassion towards humanity like a father. Additionally, it summarizes passages from Isaiah and Jeremiah that refer to God as an everlasting, compassionate father figure in the Old Testament. The overall message is that understanding God as a father provides believers with security, identity, and a sense of belonging.

What role does social media play in SMSFs?
Social media plays an important role in communicating with self-managed superannuation fund (SMSF) trustees and potential trustees. SMSF professionals can use platforms like LinkedIn to build their reputation, provide education to current and prospective clients, and engage in discussions on topics of interest like investments, taxes, and setting up SMSFs. However, advisers must balance using social media for information and education versus personal advice, and ensure they understand the regulatory framework around different types of advice in an online context. A clear social media strategy and understanding audience needs will help advisers successfully use these channels.

Social Media about a hype that's (really) not a hype
Charlotte Krijger believes social media is not a hype and can be an opportunity for businesses if used properly. Social media influences many consumer purchasing decisions. To be successful, brands need to focus on insights, relevance, engaging content, and conversation to build loyalty. Simply having a social media presence is not enough - businesses need to adapt processes and have people who understand social media dynamics to make it a true part of their business model. Social media can help facilitate conversations and grow a business if common sense is used and hype is avoided.
5 Hidden Factors Driving Complexity
These factors — and the challenges they present — are fairly new or not fully understood yet, which seems to explain why they aren’t currently top-of-mind. They also garner less attention from the C-Suite because they are not easily quantifiable. Nearly all factors discussed here have deeply human and emotional traits to them, making them somewhat unique and harder to grasp. Nonetheless, we believe they are of great importance in the future of marketing and should be addressed accordingly.

Understanding the Customer Journey in the Social Era
I spoke at the United Benefit Advisors annual conference in Chicago on September 11/12, 2017, on the subject of how a B2B business (and even a smaller one) can make sense of social.
I tied the idea of social to the customer journey and showed how, along each step of the way, they could engage customers and potential customers with social...not just social media: social content, reviews, social thinking, and more.
Social Impact Media
The survey found that social influencers play an important role in driving brand affinity and purchase decisions. Known peer influencers have the strongest influence throughout the marketing funnel, from awareness to action. However, other types of influencers like key influencers, social influencers, and user-generated content also influence consumers, especially in the early awareness stage. The findings imply that brands need to better understand who influences perception for their industry and engage with various influencers across the marketing funnel in order to be successful with social influence marketing.

From Hope to Despair: The Top 10 Reasons Businesses Ditch SEO Tactics
Are you tired of seeing your business's online visibility plummet from hope to despair? When it comes to SEO tactics, many businesses find themselves grappling with challenges that lead them to abandon their strategies altogether. In a digital landscape that's constantly evolving, staying on top of SEO best practices is crucial to maintaining a competitive edge.
In this blog, we delve deep into the top 10 reasons why businesses ditch SEO tactics, uncovering the pain points that may resonate with you:
1. Algorithm Changes: The ever-changing algorithms can leave businesses feeling like they're chasing a moving target. Search engines like Google frequently update their algorithms to improve user experience and provide more relevant search results. However, these updates can significantly impact your website's visibility and ranking if you're not prepared.
2. Lack of Results: Investing time and resources without seeing tangible results can be disheartening. The absence of immediate results often leads businesses to lose faith in their SEO strategies. It's important to remember that SEO is a long-term game that requires patience and consistent effort.
3. Technical Challenges: From site speed issues to complex metadata implementation, technical hurdles can be daunting. Overcoming these challenges is crucial for SEO success, as technical issues can hinder your website's performance and user experience.
4. Keyword Competition: Fierce competition for top keywords can make it hard to rank effectively. Businesses often struggle to find the right balance between targeting high-traffic keywords and finding less competitive, niche keywords that can still drive significant traffic.
5. Lack of Understanding of SEO Basics: Many businesses dive into the complex world of SEO without fully grasping the fundamental principles. This lack of understanding can lead to several issues:
Keyword Awareness: Failing to recognize the importance of keyword research and targeting the right keywords in content.
On-Page Optimization: Ignorance regarding crucial on-page elements such as meta tags, headers, and content structure.
Technical SEO Best Practices: Overlooking essential aspects like site speed, mobile responsiveness, and crawlability.
Backlinks: Not understanding the value of high-quality backlinks from reputable sources.
Analytics: Failing to track and analyze data prevents businesses from optimizing their SEO efforts effectively.
6. Unrealistic Expectations and Timeframe: Entrepreneurs often fall prey to the allure of quick fixes and overnight success. Unrealistic expectations can overshadow the reality of the time and effort needed to see tangible results in the highly competitive digital landscape. SEO is a long-term strategy, and setting realistic goals is crucial for success.
