You built the strategy. You built the content. But can you prove any of it is working?
A lot of B2B marketing teams can point to a full content calendar and a consistent publishing schedule, and still have no clear answer to that question. The numbers exist, dashboards get checked, reports get sent round. But there's a tougher question hiding underneath it all: does any of this connect back to something the business cares about?
In part seven of our seven-part B2B content strategy series, Amy Woods gets into how to answer that, from choosing the right metrics for each stage of the buyer journey to knowing when to persist with a strategy and when to change it.
Find out:
- Why consistency, not strategy, is often the real problem when content stops delivering results
- How to choose the right metrics based on your business goals, whether that's brand awareness, consideration, or conversion
- The difference between vanity metrics and value metrics, and the one question that separates them
- Why it’s okay if 50% of your marketing cannot be neatly attributed - this should not stop you as long as actions tie to business goals
- How to diagnose whether underperforming content has a reach problem or a resonance problem
