Ways & Means and Pop Research combined forces to raise brand awareness for multiple B2B brands, with what some consider to be lightning speed, for clients like Freshworks, Noon Home, and Here Technologies. These clients faced the challenges of finite budgets, hard to reach B2B targets, and needing to show ROI on investment.
Actionable market research was able to show the value of the multimedia approach including local/national media placements, LinkedIn Marketing Solutions, Influencer Marketing tactics, and more. What used to take an eternity (in the marketing world) now takes just a few weeks, and we will share our approach to getting to market and identifying results before your next quarter begins,
Success metrics included lifts in Unaided Awareness, as well as strong traction on key perception KPI's that significantly closed the gap with their larger more well-known competitors.
Attendees will learn:
- Reasons agility and speed are increasingly important in B2B marketing (raises the issue of timing/planning in terms of B2B companies thinking longer term, but also hyper focused on short term metrics and success... managing both can be especially difficult for B2B marketers that have longer purchase cycles but need "quick wins").
- How the media landscape and choices are increasing companies ability to target B2B marketing both in terms of local geography and audience.
- How the media landscape and choices are increasing companies ability to target B2B marketing both in terms of local geography and audience.
- How technology provides the ability to get research results to inform both product and marketing at speeds consistent with this new world and pace of information needs.
