Back to one of my favorite strands to write about: Adding more value to your B2B SaaS content (and making it different from the rest). A typical SaaS blog post contains: Typical headings, a mix of long and short paragraphs, some advice, some idealism, and a lot of similarity to what you'll find when you hit back and click link number 2. What about a strategy where we go for a really helpful book-style content approach? Create articles so rich and varied around something really complicated, say, setting up a content marketing for scratch for a new website. Order that content in a series like a YouTube playlist. Ask the gentle reader to read it in a sequential way. Number them. Have quizzes and follow-ups to assure your readers are actually finding value in what they're reading. Collect feedback. Reach out, perhaps in person, and ask if they found what they read helpful. Help as much for free. Trust and revenue will come in automatically. But remember, super-helpful, super-rich content has to play a fundamental role here. And such content needs budget, resources, and time.

Boring content works wonders for B2B SaaS. Here’s why SaaS founders should embrace it. What is “boring” content? It’s quality content that your ICP can act on. Detailed, grounded in reality, and skips the fluff. Not about quick tips/tricks to make you feel good. Why is it so effective? II. Attracts quality ICP who appreciate details over clickbait. II. It positions you as an Expert not a "Yapper". →Do’s and don’ts for “boring” content that drives pipeline. Don'ts: ❌Avoid the rabbit hole of endless tips and tricks. ❌Misleading hooks, they harm your credibility. ❌Over engineer formatting or cadence. Do's: ✅ Focus on one topic. ✅ Break it into actionable steps. ✅ Dive deep into specifics. Avoid surface-level advice. Yet, 60% don’t see results with content marketing. Why? It’s hard to stay valuable, commit, and skip the “cool” tips and tricks.

Neglecting your existing customers in your content strategy leads to churn. Unfortunately, many B2B SaaS companies keep making this mistake. I love what Garrett Moon from Coschedule said in his book 10x Marketing Formula. “Your content core connects the dots between what your customers care about and what you have to offer them. Notice that I said “what your customers care about,” and not “what your audience cares about.” There’s a difference. Because if you’re going to get really good at generating leads and converting traffic, you have to intimately understand the customers who are already paying you”. You need to find the intersects between what your customers care about and the value your product/features are offering. Then, create content around these core areas. Here are some questions you should ask your customer and product teams regularly to understand what your existing customers care about: 💬 Which features resonate most with our customers? 💬 What objections do customers frequently raise, and how can we address them effectively in our content? 💬 Are there features that are currently underused or underappreciated? How can we help users extract more value from them? 💬 Why do customers prefer us over other options in the market? 💬 How have we adjusted our product based on the feedback we receive from customers? If you need a product-led content writer who can create helpful and high-converting content, my DMs are open.

SaaS Growth Heads, listen up! Here's why link building should be your next power move: Just saw a client's pages skyrocket in rankings after some strategic link-building. The secret sauce? The client: ➟ Had a clear Content Marketing Strategy in place. ➟ Was building quality TOFU content regularly ➟ Understood genuine link building focuses mainly on content pages as opposed to product pages. ➟ Had a similar mindset towards link building to us. We focused on: ➟ The TOFU pages. ➟ We focused on relevant opportunities as opposed to big authoritative websites. ➟ We built just a few links to each page. ➟ The results came in 30 days. Remember: It's not just about any links. It's about the right ones. Then you wouldn't need to worry about quantity. A solid link-building strategy can turbocharge your non-paid traffic, bringing more qualified leads to your signup page.

we just deleted a client's entire blog..well..almost 5 years of content. 450+ articles. Gone in 60 seconds. Why? Because B2B SaaS content marketing is a pyramid scheme. 🧵 Here's the truth nobody talks about: 1. The “SEO content” myth → 91% of content ranks for zero keywords → 7% ranks for irrelevant keywords → 2% actually drives leads → You're probably in the 98% 2. The “thought leadership” lie → Nobody reads your opinions → They read solutions to problems → Your CEO's “insights” aren't helping 3. The “content calendar” trap → Creating content for content's sake → No correlation with revenue → Pure vanity metrics What we did instead: 1. Deleted 450 blog posts out of 500 2. Created 5 interactive tools 3. Built 1 ROI calculator Results after 90 days: - Organic traffic: -60% - Qualified leads: +310% - Sales velocity: +127% The hard truth: Your content team is optimizing for traffic, not revenue. #ContentMarketing #B2BSaaS #GrowtHacking

Most SaaS content falls flat because it is the same old stories. So, if you want to stand out; you got to be bold and try something new. Here’s how you can do it using these three strategies: 🔥 Create case studies featuring multiple users from the same organization. Here's why it works: Each user will share a different perspective. Therefore each of them will highlights different features and benefits of the software. ➢ A great example is Slack’s customer stories. They use multiple user’s opinions to feature in their case studies that highlight various aspects of the business. 🔥 Create content pieces that feature expert opinions. Here's why it works: It provides the user a holistic view of the topic, making the content unique and full of value. ➢ For example, HubSpot regularly features expert opinions and new data in their blogs which makes the content thousand times more interesting. 🔥 Create a blog series for different role-specific use cases. Here's why it works: Each use case will offer different POVs. These perspectives can either highlight a new feature or show how to use the product for a specific role. ➢ Salesforce blog is a great example as they have a series of blogs for various roles such as sales, service. Go beyond and use your customer’s challenges and their voice to build your content. Your audience wants something real, so give it to them And you can see your content stand out amidst all that noise out there on the internet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ So, what is your favorite way to make your content stand out?

What is the #1 mistake B2B SaaS companies make in their marketing content? ❌ You are not communicating at the experience level of your prospects. Let me give you my own example: 🔹 I’m an experienced marketer. I love learning by reading new content about marketing. 📚 🔹 I want actionable, insightful content, written by people who know much more about some facet of marketing than I do. 🧠💡 🔹 I want content that I’ll bookmark, share, and make notes from because there’s so much to learn that I’ll want to return later. 🔖✍️ Instead, 90% of the content that comes my way is: 🔸 "Top 10 trends that you have to know about X" 🔸 "Elevate your ABC game with XYZ" 🔸 "The definitive guide to ABC" (by someone who read other definitive guides) 🔸 "Look at our 37 new G2 badges" The reason your audience isn’t interested in your blog, newsletter, or social media? Your content is written for a beginner audience, not an experienced one. The other 10% of content that comes my way is awesome, and I open those newsletters almost every time. 📬🌟

How frequently do you publish content? A new study shows B2B SaaS websites that published 5-8 blog posts per month over a one-year period increased their Google Top 10 organic ranking keywords by 47.9%. Websites that published 1-4 blogs per month only increased ranking keywords by 10.8%, according to Stratabeat. Small marketing teams and solo marketers don't necessarily have the time to double their blog output. This is where outsourcing saves the day. Working with an external, experienced content writer is your key to publishing the volume and quality of content your company needs in order to reach your goals.

Here's the 1% reason why your SaaS content don't convert. I recently increased a SaaS brand organic traffic by 110% and sign-ups by 40% in three month with rich content. Here's my discovery. Your SaaS content should do three things: 1. Help your prospects solve their problems. 2. Position your brand as the expert to help them. 3. Convert readers from "Thanks for this" to ' How can I sign-up?" Check the carousel to learn how I create SaaS content that covers the three benefits. Do you lack the time and expertise to create rich SaaS content that ranks and converts without breaking your bank? Reply "SaaS Content" and I will contact you immediately. #saascontentwriter #saas #contentmarketing
