Same old, same old
• Everyone is doing the same old thing
• There’s plenty of churn• If you can manage to overcome the
resource problem• You quickly move onto the next
problem• Delivering quality• Getting cut through

Good B2B content is hard to find
• What do I mean by good?• Marketing focus on the Job title• Marketing focus on the vertical• Guess what?!?!?

How to become a content king
• DON’T become a content king• Become a CAUSE king• And do whatever it takes to
help your audience’s cause
![Page 12: Content Creation - OTM](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051015/5556e13dd8b42ac60c8b48f9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
How to become a CAUSE king
• Don’t create segments• Find your personas

Personas
• Build personas because you’ll get closer to the people• It will give you someone to aim for specifically
– Name– Age– Interests inside and outside of the office– Who do they influence?– Who influences them?– What are their pain points?– Where are they in the buying process?
• This will help find the CAUSE to back
