Your Best B2B Content Isn’t One That Goes Viral
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Millennials have the trust and credibility but can't generate demand while Gen Zs have the audience but can't generate revenue from it. . And right now, neither of them knows how to bridge that gap.
In this episode, Jake and Ding sit down with Jonny Rose, founder of The Story Club and video coach to 86 B2B founders across the UK and Europe, to talk about why millennials and Gen Zs are stuck on opposite sides of the attention-to-revenue problem, why the US is years ahead of the UK in B2B content, and how the right video strategy can make your sales process a whole lot smoother.
They also get into:
- The UK's "no pitching" culture
- Why the most unsexy videos are often the most effective
- The trust recession and why AI content is making it worse
- In-house creators vs agencies
- AI's impact on agencies
Whether you're struggling to get attention or turn it into revenue in a market that's getting noisier by the day, this episode is packed with insights you can take back to your content strategy and sales process.
