Ep 54: B2B Content creation: Avoiding overwhelm and getting strategic

Ep 54: B2B Content creation: Avoiding overwhelm and getting strategic

Author: Ayo Abbas, Marketing Consultant July 28, 2023 Duration: 38:13

Articles, blogs, videos, podcasts, carousels, panels…the B2B content options are many and varied, as are the platforms and outlets on which to publish.

Time is always short, and overwhelm is understandable. So: 

  • How do you decide what type of content to create?
  • Is it OK to stick to one type of content?
  • Which content channels should you use, and how many?

This episode is taken from a live that I Ayo Abbas did over on LinkedIn with Stacey Meadwell for our new monthly live series called the B2B  Comms Breakdown.

Hosted by marketing consultant Ayo Abbas, The Built Environment Marketing Show carves out a necessary space for professionals in architecture and engineering. This isn't a general business podcast; it's a focused conversation on the specific strategies and tactics that resonate within the built environment. Ayo brings forward voices and perspectives that often go unheard in mainstream marketing discussions, ensuring the content is both relevant and refreshingly practical. Each episode is built on the premise that effective marketing for these creative, technical fields requires a specialized approach. You'll hear from experts who understand not just marketing theory, but what actually works when trying to reach clients, win projects, and build a reputation in these industries. The discussions move beyond abstract ideas to deliver actionable hints and tips you can apply directly to your practice. Tuning into this podcast means getting a candid look at the challenges and opportunities of promoting design and engineering services, all from a host and guests who have been in the trenches. It’s an independent resource dedicated to making marketing feel less like a foreign language and more like a powerful tool for growth.
