If you’ve been throwing money at paid campaigns only to feel like your message is still getting lost in the noise, it might be time to try something that gets your audience to actually listen... Literally. Podcasting has grown from a niche entertainment medium into a key player in B2B marketing, especially for tech and cybersecurity companies....
Sick of your ads drowning in the sea of mindless scrolling? You’re not alone. Paid campaigns running on the traditional B2B channels such as LinkedIn and Google are getting more expensive and providing less ROI by the day. We’re seeing more clicks but fewer conversions, and skyrocketing costs. We’re calling this: The fatigue has set in, and it’s...
Is Reddit a goldmine for B2B marketers?The short answer is yes… if you know what you’re doing–but step out of line, and you’re toast. If you’ve tried running campaigns on Reddit before and got a bucket of freezing cold water poured onto you faster than a cold outreach email, you’re not alone. The platform’s strict rules and...
What was, is no longer. There used to be a golden rule in running PPC campaigns, regardless of how they were managed: “Throw enough money in enough directions on PPC and watch the leads roll in!” And while this used to hold true, those days are gone.

Here’s one thing with marketing–you’re never ever really done. You completed one task, three others popped up. You’ve generated 100 opportunities, management now wants 200 more. You’ve released your paid campaigns, and now you have to optimize it. And again. And again. It’s a never ending cycle (but we’re all dopamine addicts,...
It's a tale as old as time... B2B marketers have been trying to understand and measure the impact of their efforts for ages.

What's the right budget for your B2B PPC activities? Let’s cut to the chase, PPC campaigns are not the right choice of lead generation for every company at every stage or budget. The right time is when you’ve got a plan, process, technology, people and budget in place for every stage of the funnel.
