Vishnu Acharya, ex-Head of Network Infrastructure EMEA at Uber, highlights how some founders are reshaping or rebranding their businesses around AI simply to attract investor attention. 💡 His message is clear: great businesses don't need to follow every trend. If your business succeeds without AI, own it and be proud of it. 🎙️ Listen to the full podcast for more insights on AI hype, startup culture, and what truly makes a business worth investing in.

The fastest way to kill a B2B content strategy? Only talk to your ideal customer. 🎯 Yes, we said it. Most B2B teams build content for the exact person they want to sell to. Every post is tightly tied to the ICP. Every topic maps to a product feature. Every piece is expected to move someone closer to a demo. It sounds efficient. But it can make your content painfully narrow. 😬 Think about how media companies grow. 📰 A business publication does not write every story for someone ready to buy. A technology publication does not publish every article around its own product. They build a larger world around the audience. B2B brands can do the same. If we sell SEO software, we do not need to talk only about SEO software. We can talk about: 🔍 How search behavior is changing 🤖 How AI is changing discovery 🧠 How buyer research is changing 📈 How teams are restructuring their marketing 💡 How executives measure organic growth Those topics are adjacent to what we sell. But they are much bigger than what we sell. And that creates something product-first content struggles to build: Reach. This is exactly where Pierre Herubel makes an important point from his analysis of 500 B2B brands. The goal is not to attract everyone. It is to become interesting enough that people outside the buying journey still want to follow you. Attention often comes before intent. 👀 Someone might discover our thinking months before they need our product. They might share our post today. Remember our brand next quarter. Visit our website later. And eventually become a customer. That journey is almost impossible to capture if every piece of content is designed like a sales page. This is why the “think as a media company” idea matters. 🎥 Stop asking: “How can this post sell our product?” Start asking: “What conversation should our brand own?” That question creates better content. It gives the team room to explore. It makes the brand feel like a source of ideas, not another company asking for attention. And here is the interesting part: Going broader can actually make the brand more memorable to the people who matter most. 🚀 Nobody wants to follow a brochure. People follow perspectives. They follow ideas. They follow brands that consistently make them think. 🧠 For B2B brands, that could be the real content advantage: Don't just create content for the people ready to buy. Create content that makes the right people want to keep following you. Then give them a clear path when they are ready to buy. That is a much bigger content strategy. Link in comments.

The biggest mistake B2B marketers make isn't creating too little content. It's expecting content to generate leads immediately. 🎯 Everyone wants content to deliver: → More leads → More website traffic → More demo bookings → Faster conversions And sure, those metrics matter. But they're only showing you part of the picture. Because here's something most businesses overlook: Only a small percentage of your potential buyers are ready to purchase today. The rest? They're researching. They're comparing. They're discovering brands. And most importantly, they're forming opinions about who they might trust when the time comes to buy. That's why Mark Jung's perspective on content marketing is so important. He highlights a concept that every B2B marketer should understand: The "Day One List." It's the shortlist of vendors buyers already have in mind before they even begin evaluating their options. And the numbers make this even more interesting. According to the Bain & Google research shared in his post: → 86% of B2B buyers already have a Day One List. → 92% of those buyers end up purchasing from that list. Think about what that means. Your potential customers might not be looking for your product today. But they could already be deciding whether your brand deserves a place on that list. And that's where content makes a difference. Because effective content doesn't just: → Attract attention → Drive clicks → Generate immediate leads It builds familiarity. It establishes credibility. It gives people a reason to remember your brand. And when they're finally ready to make a purchase, that familiarity can influence their decision. The problem? Most of this influence doesn't show up immediately in your marketing dashboard. You might not be able to attribute a sale to a LinkedIn post someone read six months ago. But that doesn't mean the post had no impact. It might have been the reason your brand made their shortlist in the first place. So maybe the question isn't: "How many leads did our content generate this month?" It's: "Are we building a brand that buyers will remember when they're ready to buy?" Because content marketing isn't just about capturing existing demand. It's about influencing future demand. And the brands that understand this don't just compete for attention when buyers are shopping. They earn trust long before the buying journey begins. Content isn't always about getting someone to buy today. Sometimes, it's about making sure they think of you tomorrow. This is a perspective every B2B marketing leader should consider.
