Most B2B buyers are about two-thirds of the way through their purchase process before they are willing to engage with a salesperson. Therefore, having a strong digital presence is the difference between making your prospect's short list and your prospect not even knowing you exist. Most critically, a strong digital presence relies on content written from your audience's perspective.
This book provides insight and information about the questions that are critical to their business and that you can help them solve. It is the key to capturing their attention, gaining their trust, and winning their business. Marketing can't work its magic alone. It needs the support of strong branding and must provide support to well-executed sales processes. Marketing for Small B2B Businesses will dive into the relationship between each of these areas.
What You'll Learn
- Build a website that serves as the hub of your marketing
- Establish a content promotion plan that puts your content in front of the right audience
- Develop strategies and tactical plans for finding the channels best suited to your message such as social media and email marketing
- Create effective content in a timely manner with the resources you have available

The primary audience is B2B small business owners and B2B small business marketing leaders.
