Overview: The State of B2B Content Marketing IN NORTH AMERI CA
More. If one word could describe content marketing at the end of 2012, that would be it . According to the latest findings from the Content Marketing Institute and MarketingProfs, B2B marketers are spending more, using more tactics, and
distributing their content on more social networks than they have in years past. Unfortunately, there is also more uncertainty. B2B marketers are more uncertain whether they are using various content marketing tactics effectively.

Thought Leadership Disrupted: New Rules for the Content AgeHeather Taylor
Four rules that help brands and publishers think about their audience and how to reach them. Based on research from The Economist: http://www.missingthemark.ads.economist.com/ & http://tldisrupted.com/
Across sectors and regions, business leaders are recognizing the competitive advantage of
superior customer experience and the value that resides not only in what a company delivers
for its customers, but in how it delivers products and services. Where companies once
could differentiate themselves by product or efficiency, distinctiveness today increasingly
lies in creating a seamless, omnichannel customer experience.
As leaders of McKinsey’s Customer Experience Service Line, we are delighted to present this
volume of Customer experience: New capabilities, new audiences, new opportunities. This
compendium draws from the collective thinking of our experts and practitioners, and follows
by just 18 months our first volume of thinking on the subject. That in itself speaks to how
rapidly the landscape of customer experience is evolving, and how intently business leaders
are focused on it.
Five statistics on using social media to drive lead generation for B2B companies.
Most B2B marketers still think of social media as a consumer tactic. But, in truth, by pinpointing the right message to the right targets through the right social media platforms at the right times, you can connect and convert the sale faster than traditional channels.

Welcome to our annual Technology Content Marketing Benchmarks, Budgets, and Trends report, based on our latest annual content marketing survey conducted in July 2020.
The study showed that technology marketers, in the throes of adjusting to business changes presented by a global pandemic, put more emphasis on using content marketing to generate demand and leads than they had the previous year. They also were looking more closely at conversion and marketing qualified lead (MQL) metrics to track the performance of their content.
These insights suggest that tech marketers were increasingly called upon to use content marketing for demand and lead generation. It makes sense, then, that their use of virtual events (83%) increased by nine percentage points over the previous year, as virtual relationship-building and selling took a front seat. In addition, livestreaming video finally took off (one-third of all tech respondents—and 53% of those working in large companies—reported using it).
It’s too soon to tell if these will be lasting shifts. Priorities are likely to change again as restrictions caused by the pandemic ease up. We look forward to exploring these topics in our next round of annual content marketing research.

10 Tips for using Content Marketing in RecruitmentRaj Anand
The job landscape is undergoing some major changes at present. Typical candidates are behaving more and more like modern consumers by “shopping around” for jobs rather than jumping at the first opportunity that comes along.
The birth of “recruitment marketing” has brought about a major shift in focus for all recruitment agencies. Agencies that do not adjust their approaches may fall behind. As is the case with all other forms of marketing, it is crucial to develop a comprehensive understanding of the types of people that are being targeted in order to create an effective strategy that will provide recruitment agency clients with the most suitable candidates.

Greetings Content Marketers,
Welcome to this year's report on the content marketing practices of business-to-business technology marketers in North America.
In this report we highlight key areas of difference between the most effective technology marketers and their less-effective peers. We also show some differences between those who have a documented content strategy and those who do not.
Technology marketers use a good mix of tactics and continue to invest in content marketing, with 58% planning to increase spend over the next 12 months. We look forward to seeing how this continued investment pays off over the next year.
More and more, marketers are being tasked with proving the return on investment (ROI) of their marketing initiatives. This can pose a challenge, because there are many ways to determine the results and value of each campaign. For our most recent Marketing Maven survey, we wanted to know more about how industrial marketers handle proving ROI and what challenges they encounter.
Connected, interactive content experiences deliver more trusted data, and more measurable results. Original research illuminates how marketersare making big, beautiful music.
Competitor research is important in the ever-changing and highly competitive world of PPC and should be a part of your process. Not only is it wise to have a strategic plan in place, but you should be aware of the various tools available to do a competitive analysis. Are you questioning who your competitors are or how good their campaigns are? Do you know the good and the bad of bidding on competitors keywords?
In the webinar recording, experts from SEMrush and Hanapin Marketing discuss leading tactics in competitor research that will give you a leg up on your competition.
You’ll get expert-level PPC tips like:
*When and why you should do competitive research
*Research tools you should be using and best practices for them
*The pros and cons of bidding on competitor terms

Pardot Elevate 2012 - Marketing Strategies and Tactics of Top PerformersPardot
B2B marketers typically use last year’s plan as a starting point for next year’s marketing planning process, making changes only to accommodate new goals and current-year budget realities. As a result, go-to-market plans have become habitual and marketing performance becomes incrementally more or less effective year over year. Marketers at top-performing companies take a different approach. They experiment, pilot, and test. They are the vanguard with go-to- market strategies that set them apart from their peers at companies with average performance. In this presentation, Ms. Wizdo will unveil new research data from Forrester’s Q3 2012 B2B Marketing Tactics and Benchmarks Survey to provide planning guidance that will energize your marketing strategy in 2013. While there is no “paint by numbers” formula for the perfect marketing mix, B2B marketers can leverage the proven practice of top-performing marketing organizations to inform their own marketing mix decisions.
Roles have broadened in the past five years, leaving marketers with a wide spectrum of responsibilities. Learn more in this year's CMO Survey: http://cmo.deloitte.com/xc/en/pages/solutions/cmosurvey.html?id=us:2sm:3ss:cmosurvey:eng:cons:082516

Marketing Mix Models In a Changing EnvironmentAquent
Marketing Mix Models have been used successfully for years at consumer package goods (CPG) companies to increase their marketing effectiveness and efficiency. The four Ps (Product, Placement, Price, and Promotion) were as far as the models needed to go. Broad–based media was and is very expensive, which kept competition to a minimum. However, the marketing environment has changed in many ways and must be considered when looking to these models to improve marketing performance.
With Digital's increased importance in the marketing mix, brand leaders are naturally concerned with measuring and proving its efficacy. With Digital, there is no shortage of data to evaluate as part of this process. But all that data brings with it a new challenge – identifying which metrics we should care about, and how to best measure them. This paper examines the current state of digital measurement and opines for more scientific measurement approach utilizing a test and control methodology.
