Make sure your content is tailored to your audience Here at the LinkNow Media blog, we’ve given plenty of advice to small business owners on the topic of creating content to reach out to potential customers. However, most of the things we’ve talked about have been aimed at B2C businesses – companies that are trying to reach out to consumers. B2B companies face many of the same challenges, but B2B customers are not average consumers. Being a resource is important for B2B content When you’re using content to try to expand your business’s audience, grow brand awareness, and attract new customers, it’s important that you’re creating content that your ideal customers want to read.

how to create your brand voice
Give your business a social media identity The way we choose to communicate says a lot about us, and this applies to companies just as much as it does to human beings.

This experience has given us insight into the unique struggles faced by small business owners when they promote their businesses online, and we’ve come up with a winning formula.

Content is King, but Not All Content is Created Equal Small business owners who are trying to manage their own online marketing often struggle with this topic. They know they need to create content (because they’ve been told that it’s important) but have no idea how to create content that is effective for SEO.
