Kevin Davis and Kay-Kay Clapp from Typeform joined Erik Jacobson to share how they have shifted away from traditional SEO blog posts towards a 95/5 content strategy approach that is designed to reach future buyers before they're ever actively looking for a solution.
They explain their use of first-person storytelling, influencer partnerships, and proprietary research, and how they got buy-in from leadership on the value of a 95/5 content strategy (and the value of brand marketing).
Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
- Stop obsessing over content formats and focus on where your buyers actually are
- Focus on one ICP deeply rather than spreading across multiple personas
- Build owned audiences as your North Star instead of chasing perfect attribution
- Treat influencers and employees as brand extensions to reach audiences where trust already exists
- Partner your content team with paid teams - their best ads often come from your content assets
- Look outside B2B to fashion, D2C, and reality TV for inspiration that actually makes people engage
- AI makes formulaic content worthless, forcing differentiation through human creativity and weirdness
