B2B Content Marketing Benchmarks, Budgets, and Trends—North America
Invest In Relevant Content; Repurpose It For Physical Or Digital Use
Hello everybody, it’s real exciting to be here today and share my perspectives with all of you.
I know there are a lot of leaders from fast-growth companies and aspiring startups here and I thought I’d share some perspectives and tips on how to connect with your customers in today’s world.
But, today’s mobile, social, digital world has made this really hard to create this virtuous cycle of customer success.
First of all, your buyers are more empowered than ever before. They have 2900 messages per day that are vying for their attention so there is are lots of places that they can get information. And armed with this info, they are forming opinions and drawing conclusions well before they choose to interact with your brand. In fact if you look at some data points, from folks like Forrester, they say that anywhere from 66-90% of a buyers journey is self-directed before they interact with you. When they are interacting with your brand, at every stage of interaction, 87% percent of them demand something that is a meaningful, contextual, relevant experience (based on a recent report from Edelman).
Given that there is lots of noise, the customer is self-directing their journey and the customer wants a personal interaction at every point of their journey, it’s now up to marketing, more than any other business function, to become the steward of the customer journey. In the past, sales was empowered and customer service interacted with the customers a lot, but given these trends, marketing is taking the lead, building a bond with customers and becoming the steward of the customer journey.
Visual Note:
Chevron and movement. Engagement Marketing bigger.
As Laura said, “Power has shifted from seller to buyer”.
Let take an example of buying a car. You see the purple steps as “buyer-driven” vs. the orange steps as “seller-driven.”
Just ten years ago, if you bought a car, the you would’ve seen a lot more orange than purple on this slide – sellers has all the power. Today, the information abundance has empowered the buyers and made them self-direct their journeys more than ever before.
This is what we call engagement marketing.
In this age of the customer, there is no room for mass advertising or random acts of marketing.
As you look to thrive in the Age of the Customer and go from being customer-centric to customer-obsessed, here are the 5 principles of Engagement Marketing that will help you outshine your competition and pass the customer obsession test.
Rule #1: Marketers need to shift from mass marketing to engaging people an individuals, in a 1:1 way.
Very quickly let me explain engagement marketing in a little more detail
Think about this beach – we all want to be there
Each have different point of view
Viking river cruises example
<CLICK>
3 stories
This is possible today with engagement marketing technology
Not just about what we say, but how and when we say it
About individual basis with customers
Very simple answer – stop spending so much time charting, spend more time listening
2 ears, 1 mouth
Truism of building relationships
As much about listening to the other person as talking about yourself
Listen to what customers are saying and understand the journey they are on
Only if we can listen and understand are we able to continue the conversation in a positive way
New Rule #4 is that marketers need to shift from point in time campaigns to continuous conversations.
Campaigns are disconnected puzzle pieces – and therefore never form any kind of cohesive thread or picture – to communications that form a continuous relationship that gets deeper and deeper over time.
Traditionally as marketers, we’ve been focused a lot on the transaction – helping close the deal with the customer. But the end of the transaction is the beginning of a long-term relationship with a customer. And brands that win engage people early and engage them over time continously in a personalized way; this is critical in a world where a customer has lots of choice and the switching costs are low.
We have a way forward
Engagement Marketing – big idea, big idea we all better pay attention to
Unifies advertising and marketing technology into a single vision for how to change this game and really connect with our customers
We can all relate
Metaphor is building relationships with other people
Build relationships through trust, intimacy
B2H
Takes time – have to work at building relationships
Earn trust/intimacy
Whether friendship or romantic, we all understand what this process involves
Big idea of engagement marketing is to use technology to allow us to earn trusting intimate and valuable relationships with our customers as people, even at gigantic scale
Age of the customer:
Customers have goals. Marketers should direct them towards those goals.
The reason this is important is because marketers don’t define customer, journeys, CUSTOMERS DO.
Frankly arrogant that you can draw our the behaviors of our customers, and our interactions with them
Only customers can determine their journey
Marketers need to be with them along the way, over time
Still need to have emotion
Still need to have calls to action
Start thinking about taking customers on journeys over time

Other key idea, journeys
For example, rather than a random ad, we’re all learning to think about this as multi-step process
Idea of lead nurturing
Journeys over time

Not just about getting people to buy
About lifelong relationships
Lots of different journeys
As marketers think about each destination
Each individual at a different point, different place, different step of their own individual journey

Age of the customer:
4 out of 5 of smartphone users check their phones within the first 15 minutes of waking up.
44% of cellphone owners sleep with their phones next to their beds.
As average smartphone user, spends 127 minutes a day in apps, has an average of 65 apps installed!!
Today’s digitally-empowered buyer is channel-agnostic. This new buyer has become the undisputed controller of her relationship with your brand.
Now, more than ever, your customer is in charge.
It’s not just watches – Fitbits, NEST thermostats, refrigerators, pill bottles, even jet engines
Maybe not all of them, maybe not jet engines, but many others are marketing channels
So, what’s this mean for our jobs as marketers?
We’ve organized our marketing departments around these channels
Today we have email marketers, social marketers, web marketers
What’s next? Pill bottle marketing team? Thermostat marketing team? Watch marketing team?
The internet of things will finally force us to re-think the design of the modern marketing department
<CLICK> To good news
As Laura said “Customer obsession is now your best competitive advantage.” And Engagement will be the new basis of THIS competitive advantage.
Hope you’re inspired by our vision of engagement marketing
As Marketers, we really do have the keys to the kingdom
Together, let’s make it a Marketing First world
