Kortney Harmon and Katie Jones are a perfect case study of how to design an effective B2B content team structure in 2024.
Kortney is the Director of Industry Relations & Podcast Host at Crelate (an end-to-end staffing and recruiting software platform), and sits in the “Thought Leader” role.
Katie is the Senior Content Marketing Manager, and sits in the “Content Architect” role.
They teamed up two years ago, and have executed a content strategy designed to build trust and affinity with the 95% of potential Crelate buyers who are / were not in market looking for a solution *yet*.
Their approach worked, and has resulted in massively growing the Crelate brand over that time.
In this episode of 95% Content hosted by Erik Jacobson (CEO of Hatch.fm), Kortney and Katie share how they’ve designed this content team structure, and their podcast, newsletter, organic social, and live and digital event playbook that has grown the Crelate brand into a recognized and sought after product in their industry over the last two years.
