Shownotes

In this video, I sit down with B2B YouTube specialist Samu Kovács to break down why YouTube is one of the most underrated and untapped channels in B2B right now.

We cover:

→ Why YouTube beats LinkedIn for cutting through the noise in B2B

→ How to rank your videos and attract your exact ICP without needing thousands of views

→ The YouTube-first content strategy that actually drives inbound leads and pipeline

→ How to convert views into booked calls with the right CTAs

If you are a B2B marketer or founder looking for a channel that builds trust, drives pipeline, and compounds over time.

Tune in and learn:

→ Why 300 views from your ICP beats 30,000 random views

→ How search-based YouTube content creates evergreen traffic for years

→ What actually makes a video rank (hint: it is not the tags)

→ How to turn YouTube into your number one lead gen channel
