Focusing on Objectives First and Following Up with Thoughtful Strategy

At Relequint, before getting deep into execution, we have collaborative sessions detailing a tech company’s big-picture marketing objectives. Is the goal going to be thought leadership? Growing sales? Are we dedicated to B2B marketing or B2B & B2C? Based on the discovered business objective, Relequint defines a marketing plan that promotes the technology’s competitive advantages to develop a dialogue in the marketplace.

UNDERSTANDING BEHAVIORS ACROSS SOURCES

Whether selling B2B technology services, products, or software, you have to be able to establish a brand for the tech that resonates with your buyer persona. Above, you can see progress being made for a newly established global IT field services company.

OUR TECH CLIENTS ARE FACING TREMENDOUS NOISE IN THE INDUSTRY

The tech industry is crowded with competition. Often, clients must explain that they are B2B and not B2C because so many tech company’s brand stories overlap. Getting your story out there to the right audience and establishing your prominence within your B2B community can be difficult. We’ve developed systems and processes that help, but it generally comes down to daily discipline.

ENGAGEMENT VALUE

We develop marketing automation that leverages persona engagement through workflows designed to establish thought leadership and convert prospects into opportunities. Telling the story of a technology’s key value proposition through content requires sharing multiple perspectives to convey the value important to a particular buyer persona. Understanding the prospect’s journey and anticipating their needs speeds the process.

B2B BLOGGING AS AN ASSET

A key difference between B2B content and advertising is the understanding that your content continues to be a source of qualified leads long after it goes live. That next big account may come in through a blog post from two years ago.

You need to convince leadership that the short-term and long-term benefits of blogging will make the challenges worth it. Provide plenty of metrics and research, along with feedback from your team members.

B2B blogging without measuring results and adapting your strategy accordingly is a complete waste of time. However, we recognize that the sheer number of available metrics can be overwhelming. The most important metrics you need to track are:

• Visitors

• Leads

• Subscribers

• Inbound Links

• Social Media Shares
