Media Strategies Aren’t as Crazy as They Seem
Ryan LawApr 20

More companies are investing in “media content” like publications, books, podcasts, and shows.

Great software is opinionated - it has a built in point of view on how a problem should be solved. It's the job of marketing and sales to communicate that point of view in a compelling way for prospects.

If you work at a remote-first company, err on the side of over-communicating.

Better to be slightly redundant and possibly annoying than to be vague and unclear.

People don't like marketing because bad marketing gets noticed.

Great marketing adds value to your audience's day by:

- Educating them
- Entertaining them
- Inspiring them
- Informing them

It's welcoming.

A simple trick to increase your landing page or website conversion rate:

As someone scrolls through your landing page/site, they should feel their questions are being answered with every scroll.

Your page should actively fight the reasons why someone would NOT convert.

A simple link building tip:

Study homepage links of your competitors.

You might not have the same "linkable assets" that they do. But links to their homepages should be possible to replicate without creating any new content.

An excellent, in-depth look into SEO as a marketing channel for SaaS businesses: copyhackers.com/2022/04/seo-fo…

Is it still useful in 2022? Sometimes. Can it work (as it did in the years I built Moz) as the singular pillar for attracting customers? I don't think so.

Gonna get the banhammer from SEO Twitter if I keep posting like this - but SEO content is becoming a commodity. It all looks/feels/reads the same. To be meaningful in B2B, you have to execute in a way so it reinforces your strategic narrative, otherwise it's just a carbon copy.

You share your audience with your competitors...

Most of your competitors spend all their time trying to get money from your audience.

When you step up and freely give more value up front, you become the helpful guide they know, like and trust.
