Hey everyone, welcome back for another deep dive with us. We're gonna dig into something that I think is super relevant for pretty much everyone listening, thought leadership, and specifically for B2B brands. We're looking at an article called Elevating Your B2B Brand Through Thought Leadership, The Power of PR, Credibility, and SEO. So this is something that I think we hear about a lot, but maybe don't always have the clearest idea of how to actually put it into practice. So hopefully this will be a really practical deep dive for everyone, and maybe to kick things off, like why is this such a hot topic right now? Well, I think one of the big things is the B2B landscape is changing so rapidly. Businesses are facing increasingly complex problems. There's just so much information out there, and what they need is they need guidance, they need expertise, and that's where thought leadership comes in. It's almost like instead of just selling your product or service, you are becoming that trusted advisor or that expert that's actually guiding them through whatever those challenges are. Exactly, exactly. It's about providing value. Think about it, instead of just putting up a billboard, you're giving someone a helpful guide, you know what I mean? Something they can really use. Yeah, okay, so that makes sense. But how do we actually become thought leaders? How do we actually get to that point? Right, and that's the great thing about this article is it gives us some actionable steps, and it highlights two key avenues, content creation and leveraging internal experts. So we're talking about creating content, obviously, that showcases your expertise, white papers, webinars, things like that, but it has to be targeted, insightful, and address very specific pain points for your audience. So for example, instead of just doing a generic webinar on marketing trends, what if you did a webinar on something like navigating supply chain disruptions in the manufacturing industry? You see how that's much more valuable to a specific audience. Totally, yeah, you're speaking their language. You're showing them that you get their world. Exactly, and that's where the internal experts come in. Every company has this goldmine of knowledge just sitting there. Don't be afraid to tap into it. Your lead engineer could be the perfect person to write a guest post for a trade publication, share their insights on the latest tech advancements. Right, right, it's almost like positioning them as a thought leader, too. Exactly. Which then, obviously, elevates the entire brand. Absolutely, and there are so many ways to amplify that expertise, and that's where PR comes in. PR, okay, most people think like red carpets, movie stars. Right, right, but in the B2B world, it's about getting your experts in front of the right people. Media interviews, speaking engagements, even just getting your team's bylines in relevant industry publications. You know, it all plays a role. So it's really about visibility, and also building that credibility. Absolutely. You're not just talking the talk. You're actually out there doing it. We're living it, and it's not just about getting your name out there. It's about humanizing your brand, too. That's a good point. People connect with people, and when they see your team sharing these valuable insights, it builds trust, and that is priceless. So we've got our experts that are sharing insights. We're building that trust, but then this article, it connects thought leadership to SEO, and that's where I was like, ooh, okay. This is interesting. Yeah, it's a connection that I think a lot of people miss, because when you think about it, high-quality, insightful content, people notice. Right, of course, yeah, using Google notices, too. Google notices, yeah. So when other websites in your industry publications, they see that you're putting out this great content, they're gonna reference it. They'll link back to your articles, your white papers, even your team member profiles. Oh, okay, so those backlinks are basically like votes of confidence, then. Exactly, exactly. It's like Google's looking at all these other websites saying, hey, these guys know what they're talking about. This is a valuable resource, and that boosts your ranking. Right, so it's easier for the right people to find you organically, then. Exactly. Okay, instead of just like, you know, through ads and stuff. Exactly, okay, okay. Can you give us like a really concrete example of how this works, then? Sure, yeah, let's say you're in the AI software industry. Now, instead of just talking about your product, right, you create this comprehensive glossary of AI terminology on your website. It's actually useful for anyone who's trying to navigate that world. Right, so other websites, they start linking to it as a resource. Google sees that, like, okay, this is like the authority, and it bumps you up in the search results. Oh, wow. And then someone who's searching for AI software solutions, they're more likely to find you because you've established that thought leadership. It's like, what's the thing? Build it, and they will come. But it's more like, share your knowledge, and Google will send them your way. Exactly, that's a great way to put it. It's really playing the long game. You're focused on that value, establishing your expertise, and you're naturally attracting the audience, but you're also attracting, like, the algorithms. Right, yeah, yeah. It's like you're kind of like, you're doing both at the same time, which is cool. Okay, so to recap, we're creating content, we're leveraging our internal experts, we're amplifying their voices through PR, and then that, like, boosts our SEO. It's like this nice little cycle. It all works together. Yeah. Yeah. Which is cool. I mean, I imagine all of this is like, it ultimately leads to business growth. That's the goal, more visibility, more credibility, more trust. Right. More clients, more partnerships. Yeah. More success. It's pretty amazing how it all, like, fits together. Yeah, it really is, like, a whole different way of thinking about your marketing strategy. Totally, and it's not just about, like, you know, short-term wins either. Right. This is about building something that's, like, sustainable. Absolutely, yeah. Investing in thought leadership, you're investing in the long-term success of your business. It's really about becoming, like, indispensable. Right, like, you're the go-to, you're the resource. Exactly. Which, I mean, let's be honest, that's, like, the dream for any brand. Yeah, for sure. So before we wrap up, there's one thing I kind of want to throw out there. So the article focuses a lot on, like, leveraging your own team's expertise, right? Yeah. But what about, like, collaborating with others? Oh, that's a great point. That's huge. Yeah. And I think it's often overlooked. Right. But, like, think about the possibilities there. You could join forces with other thought leaders. Right, totally. You know, co-create content, do webinars together, share a stage at an event. Yeah, yeah. I mean, that amplifies your reach. It brings in a new perspective. For sure, and you could probably even do things like, I don't know, maybe swap audiences a little bit, or, you know, like, cross-promote. Yeah, exactly. It's like thought leadership 2.0 or something. Exactly, yeah. You're building a network. Right. And ultimately, it's the audience that benefits. Totally, totally. Well, on that note, I think we'll leave everyone with that to kind of ponder. Yeah, a lot to think about. Lots to think about. Thanks again for joining us for this deep dive. Hopefully you found it super helpful. Absolutely, and remember, this stuff takes time. Yeah. You know, consistency is key, but it's worth it. Couldn't agree more. All right, everyone, thanks for tuning in. We'll catch you on the next deep dive.
