Content Marketing

 
 
 

Humans are not convinced by facts and data. All empirical proof and meticulous arguments roll off person’s mind like water off of a duck’s back. But stories and narratives stay with us, as we experience them and sympathize, transmitting information woven in the growth and change of a person or organization. Every blog, tweet, white paper, or speech must be centered around a narrative, the narrative of how our products saved a business, help a person succeed or allowed a company to grow.

Product Marketing

 
 
 

Product Marketing- Systems, Incentives and Revenue

An engineer sees systems, establishing a process, its efficiencies, wastes and how to improve it. A psychologist sees incentives, what needs must be met, which fears to alleviate, goals to be achieved. An entrepreneur sees revenue and growth opportunities for a business and it’s employees. My approach to product marketing is to blend each of these perspectives in to solid narratives that speak to customers and produce revenue. 

Digital Marketing

 

Sales Teams are
Not Steam Engines

“FEED THE BEAST!” my old boss would holler to the team every morning. A focus on pumping up visitors, clicks, downloads and MQLs is disconnected from a business’ goal, revenue. This is not the way to handle B2B digital marketing. Instead of burying sales teams in weak tea leads, let me share with you my digital marketing strategies to generate conversations ready leads, engage accounts and increase revenue.
