One of the hardest tasks B2B marketers face these days is finding benchmark data for their ad campaigns. It’s either the data simply doesn’t exist, or it’s incredibly difficult to pinpoint any discernible context.

That’s why we assembled a three-man team to dig into our annual B2B paid social benchmark report and provide valuable insights that you can tweak to get some data of your own.

Join Mark Huber, Head of Brand & Product Marketing, Jason Widup, VP of Marketing, and Justin Simon, Senior Content Marketing Manager at Metadata, as they talk through launching the report and what Metadata has got planned based on the information it revealed.
