Business of Apps Podcast #10: B2B marketing for mobile SaaS apps with Philipp Stelzer, Staff Product Manager for GoToMeeting
Open any online marketing publication, e-book, webinar or YouTube video of a presentation about app marketing, chances are it will be about doing marketing for B2C (stands for Business Two Customers) apps. In fact, the bulk of available materials cover techniques, hints, tricks, use case of how to market a mobile app to an end user. That's cool but there is the other part of the equation - B2B apps marketing and businesses need information about it as much as for B2C.
On this episode we want to fill in the gap for marketers and business owners who need to find users for their B2B apps. Our guest is Philipp Stelzer, who is in an excellent position to talk about both B2C and B2B app marketing and what sets them apart. He spent several years being part of Wooga mobile game studio and was heavily involved with mobile games marketing to end users. Now Philipp is with LogMeIn software company, known to you by such well known brands as GoToMeeting, GoToWebinar and others, and he's immersed into marketing for B2B apps, in particular SAAs apps.
