WEBVTT 1 00:00:02.560 --> 00:00:08.429 You're listening to BB revenue acceleration, a podcast dedicated helping software executive stay on 2 00:00:08.470 --> 00:00:12.230 the cutting edge of sales and marketing in their industry. Let's get into the 3 00:00:12.310 --> 00:00:16.910 show. Hi, welcome to be to be a rover in your acceleration. 4 00:00:17.230 --> 00:00:21.699 My name is Johani Emriti and I'm here today with Scot Baraday from idea cross 5 00:00:22.219 --> 00:00:26.260 by doing today's cuss good. How are you? I'm very, very good. 6 00:00:26.420 --> 00:00:30.579 Thank you. So today's good. We want to talk with you about 7 00:00:31.379 --> 00:00:38.170 subjects is quite interesting. We've actually got a couple of podcasts on seeing octopic, 8 00:00:38.289 --> 00:00:41.729 but we want to drive in a little bit more detail with you, 9 00:00:42.170 --> 00:00:48.049 which is about liveraging pout drive sets. But before we get into the topic, 10 00:00:48.210 --> 00:00:51.759 can you please introduce yourself a little bit more for a listeners as well 11 00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:56.439 as introduced I grove, your company. Yes, my name is Scott Barrel. 12 00:00:56.560 --> 00:01:00.840 I've been in well, I started out as a journalist and went from 13 00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:06.790 there into corporate communications and was an exactly that. Some mostly technology companies on 14 00:01:06.870 --> 00:01:10.549 the client side. Formed my agency, Idea Grove, in two thousand and 15 00:01:10.750 --> 00:01:17.430 five as a PR in content firm specifically for technology companies. Over time we've 16 00:01:17.469 --> 00:01:22.620 become integrated. So we do digital marketing, web design and just about everything 17 00:01:22.700 --> 00:01:27.219 aligned with the needs of BDB technology companies. Excellent one. Thanks for that's 18 00:01:27.260 --> 00:01:32.780 good. So, yeah, he's often seen as a brand of one, 19 00:01:32.890 --> 00:01:38.569 as reputation building tool, and we are that it's difficult to measure a tribute 20 00:01:38.689 --> 00:01:44.930 Roy tweets. Do you see that? Does it changing? Well, I 21 00:01:45.049 --> 00:01:49.640 think that it is slowly changing. I think that the reality is that something 22 00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:59.000 like building authority for a client is always going to be more difficult to measure 23 00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:05.430 than building a pipeline for a client. But there are increasingly ways to measure 24 00:02:05.430 --> 00:02:09.110 it and in there are increasingly ways, I think it just as importantly to 25 00:02:09.509 --> 00:02:17.259 connect authority building or PR efforts more directly to the pipeline. So I can 26 00:02:17.340 --> 00:02:23.099 give you an example. So one of the things that's changed in PR is 27 00:02:23.180 --> 00:02:28.620 that it used to be, for example, you might get a story placement 28 00:02:29.020 --> 00:02:35.370 in a prominent, wellknown publication and you could expect people your audience to have 29 00:02:35.530 --> 00:02:43.330 read it because there were relatively few publications in a particular space and because the 30 00:02:43.569 --> 00:02:50.080 readership was strong. Media is extremely fragmented and so just think of the the 31 00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:53.080 local newspaper. You know it used to be a be thrown on the doorstep 32 00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:58.710 and everyone would see what was on the front page. Today it's very unlikely 33 00:02:59.229 --> 00:03:01.870 that anyone you talk to would have seen it. So you can get that 34 00:03:02.030 --> 00:03:07.909 placement and it have the authority of having been in your local newspaper or Business 35 00:03:07.949 --> 00:03:12.750 Journal or in a national trade publication. But your audience, you know, 36 00:03:12.979 --> 00:03:17.900 likelihood has not seen that placement, and so you can do things like one 37 00:03:17.900 --> 00:03:22.180 of the things that we're doing now and having some success with. You still 38 00:03:22.259 --> 00:03:27.449 want your audience to know that you've got that placement because it confers authority on 39 00:03:27.530 --> 00:03:30.490 you, it confers credibility on you, and so you can use an account 40 00:03:30.530 --> 00:03:36.849 based marketing campaign, for example, to promote that placement to make sure the 41 00:03:36.930 --> 00:03:39.930 people you're trying to reach know that you were in for Biz or in the 42 00:03:39.969 --> 00:03:45.439 New York Times or in the publication. That is confer incredibility on you. 43 00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:49.280 And then when we click on the ad through the ABM campaign, they can 44 00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:53.479 go back to custom newsroom experience where you bring them into the funnel in the 45 00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:58.229 same way that you might throw a blog or other inbel marketing techniques, but 46 00:03:58.389 --> 00:04:01.990 you're doing doing it through marketing, your news and I think that's how the 47 00:04:02.270 --> 00:04:06.030 the connection is being made today by, I would say, more forward looking 48 00:04:06.349 --> 00:04:10.780 PR firms, although I would say not most be our firms even today. 49 00:04:10.819 --> 00:04:14.580 Yeah, that things is a great way to put it to get out of 50 00:04:14.620 --> 00:04:18.819 the see from the description as an extension of the account base on account base 51 00:04:18.899 --> 00:04:23.420 markets in compaign. And I like the wall that you are using about gooding 52 00:04:23.459 --> 00:04:27.850 authority because, yeah, if you're in false you've got you managed to get 53 00:04:27.970 --> 00:04:31.730 publication of effectually a great way to have to say, in a sense, 54 00:04:32.009 --> 00:04:35.490 buddy, date Wi, you are an organization of any date show. I'll 55 00:04:35.569 --> 00:04:40.319 sell you see as an organization. So just to because in them of the 56 00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:44.959 comp thanks to try. But so you would see do the classic pr which 57 00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:48.680 is getting the contents ready, sharing that content, finding the right publication, 58 00:04:48.879 --> 00:04:54.230 the publication that you have the right individ you're the back end breading it. 59 00:04:54.709 --> 00:04:59.750 But you also, as an organization, probably that sort of marketing country in 60 00:04:59.790 --> 00:05:04.389 tens. So just walk the satiss in anything, mockties follow up. Think 61 00:05:04.550 --> 00:05:10.620 locket US in drugging PA to the idea. Yes, I mean I think 62 00:05:10.699 --> 00:05:14.100 the differences. You still do all of those things that you did in traditional 63 00:05:14.220 --> 00:05:18.699 PR in terms of building relationships with media and getting media placements. It's just 64 00:05:18.939 --> 00:05:25.689 that today you can't end there. You have to close the loop because you 65 00:05:25.889 --> 00:05:29.930 can't assume, as you could in the past, that the people you wanted 66 00:05:29.970 --> 00:05:33.569 to see we'll see this and, related to that, you know we for 67 00:05:33.730 --> 00:05:39.680 years. You know something that sales people have done in trying to close deals. 68 00:05:40.160 --> 00:05:43.439 Let me back up and just say the one thing that PR can do 69 00:05:44.240 --> 00:05:49.790 that advertising cannot do nearly as effectively is to build authority for your brick. 70 00:05:50.149 --> 00:05:55.829 So, in other words, I think it visibility or awareness. People Associate 71 00:05:55.949 --> 00:06:00.230 awareness with PR. Well, I can get awareness probably more cost effectively today 72 00:06:00.750 --> 00:06:03.660 by just doing retargeting and blanketing. You know the web with ads are doing 73 00:06:03.699 --> 00:06:08.180 things like that. That's awareness, that's visibility, but that's me, that's 74 00:06:08.259 --> 00:06:12.939 me talking about myself. So that is not authority building, it's just awareness 75 00:06:13.060 --> 00:06:17.139 building. What pre can do is to help you build authority in your space 76 00:06:17.379 --> 00:06:23.649 through the third party endorsement that is assumed when a publication about you, and 77 00:06:23.649 --> 00:06:29.250 I would say that's true of analyst relations, it's true of Captera and other 78 00:06:29.810 --> 00:06:35.560 review site, gardener, digital markets gardener. They analyst firm realize that what's 79 00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:42.240 going on with crowd source reviews of technology is a natural extension of the what 80 00:06:42.399 --> 00:06:46.720 used to be the the domain of analyst relations, and so that's why Gartner 81 00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:49.870 brought up a bunch of the top software review sites and technology review sites and 82 00:06:49.990 --> 00:06:55.110 Brandsom as Gartner digital markets, because it's all the same thing. It's all 83 00:06:55.149 --> 00:06:59.230 about conferring Third Party Authority. But what I was going to do that that's 84 00:06:59.350 --> 00:07:03.819 just to lead into. You know, what sales people have done forever is 85 00:07:03.860 --> 00:07:09.699 when they're reaching out to a prospect, they will they will link to recent 86 00:07:09.860 --> 00:07:14.860 media coverage or they'll talk about something analysts said or something a third party set. 87 00:07:15.259 --> 00:07:18.129 That's a that's a very it's a classic way that sales people try to 88 00:07:18.170 --> 00:07:23.810 get in the door with prospects. And what you can do is you can 89 00:07:24.449 --> 00:07:30.279 automate that through marketing animation, through sales sequences and CIM software. There are 90 00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:38.439 lots of ways to automate that communication to prospects of these kind of third party 91 00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:43.639 endorsements, and I think that's how we make that connection more directly between PR 92 00:07:43.879 --> 00:07:47.189 or authority building and Lee Generation. Yeah, I think we kind of responded 93 00:07:47.230 --> 00:07:49.910 to the point that was leading into, which is if you can have marketing 94 00:07:49.990 --> 00:07:55.149 short you can have sense. I do think that he's making it does make 95 00:07:55.230 --> 00:07:57.750 sense when you put lots of it, boss, and potentially a little bit 96 00:07:57.790 --> 00:08:05.420 of money as well, in having consutants or having analysts, having reportels, 97 00:08:05.579 --> 00:08:09.339 journalist speaking about you, are speaking about your brands between the book that you 98 00:08:09.420 --> 00:08:13.569 do and you get a authority from their content. You would be a shame 99 00:08:13.730 --> 00:08:16.569 that to use it to make surely share epuisot good clients. Do you have 100 00:08:16.689 --> 00:08:20.569 a best practice or do you have recommendation? Who set his steam of the 101 00:08:20.649 --> 00:08:24.410 marketing team on frequency to do it all? To do it, I'll often 102 00:08:24.490 --> 00:08:28.199 to do it when you use it, or do you let them do let 103 00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:33.039 your clients actually get the most of the compretenseet. We do advise clients. 104 00:08:33.320 --> 00:08:39.120 I think it really depends on the individual clients situation. So in our case 105 00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:43.429 we have some big clients, like anyc you know, as a twenty plus 106 00:08:43.509 --> 00:08:48.990 billion dollar company. In their case they don't need a lot of third party 107 00:08:50.470 --> 00:08:56.899 endorsement to establish their credibility. Maybe if they're moving into a new space or 108 00:08:56.980 --> 00:09:00.779 with a new product, something that has reviewed their product and said they were 109 00:09:00.820 --> 00:09:03.980 the best or something like that would be something good to promote. But for 110 00:09:05.460 --> 00:09:07.980 a number of our clients who are, say, start ups or mid market 111 00:09:09.059 --> 00:09:11.649 companies, and many cases they're in a space where they're not well known at 112 00:09:11.690 --> 00:09:16.009 all. They're competing against, you know, an eight hundred pound guerrilla in 113 00:09:16.009 --> 00:09:18.769 their space and trying to just get get a little oxygen, a little air 114 00:09:18.850 --> 00:09:24.399 space for themselves in amid all the noise in their in their industry space, 115 00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:28.480 being very aggressive about, let's say you have a you know a we have 116 00:09:28.559 --> 00:09:33.960 a client that is in an applicant tracking system in the AH, all the 117 00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:39.230 space. That's a highly competitive and commoditized space and if you're trying to start 118 00:09:39.269 --> 00:09:45.070 out, they're letting people know that you're doing something different and getting a little 119 00:09:45.070 --> 00:09:48.429 attention is not going to be as simplest just telling people that. And so 120 00:09:48.710 --> 00:09:52.620 for those kind of brands that are really trying to get a little attention and 121 00:09:54.100 --> 00:09:58.980 aren't very wellknown, you need to be much more aggressive about right. Well, 122 00:09:58.139 --> 00:10:01.779 he might be, you know, I'm on the Forbes Technology Council, 123 00:10:01.820 --> 00:10:07.769 or see our article in this hr publication or hey, you know, listen 124 00:10:07.850 --> 00:10:13.529 to on this HR podcast, those kinds of things, and I would say 125 00:10:13.570 --> 00:10:16.649 again it ties directly to that, but a lot of PR firms don't think 126 00:10:16.690 --> 00:10:20.639 about it. Today, if I'm looking for applicate, if I'm searching, 127 00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:24.879 if I find out about your brand, the first thing I'm going to do, 128 00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:28.600 and one of the key metrics we talked about measurability there to day, 129 00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:33.720 is branded searches. So someone searching for your brand's name because they heard about 130 00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:37.149 it. So they saw that add they sought they heard this podcast. So 131 00:10:37.269 --> 00:10:41.230 when they search, one of the first things are probably going to see is 132 00:10:41.429 --> 00:10:46.590 reviews from a captera or software advice. So if I go there and I 133 00:10:46.789 --> 00:10:48.990 see that you've maybe you've got five star reviews, but you've only got four 134 00:10:50.019 --> 00:10:54.659 of them, well, how likely am I to think that you're an established 135 00:10:54.740 --> 00:10:58.059 player who I want to trust with my business, or am I going to 136 00:10:58.220 --> 00:11:03.980 look for a company that has twenty five reviews or more? You know, 137 00:11:03.059 --> 00:11:07.929 we have had cases where, many cases it's very common, where we might 138 00:11:07.970 --> 00:11:11.850 have a client that has quite a few customers, they have an aggressively got 139 00:11:11.970 --> 00:11:18.120 those customers to be promoters into and to leave those reviews. And so for 140 00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:24.440 the kind of clients that we often work with, things like lots getting lots 141 00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:30.320 of positive customer reviews, being very aggressive about any kind of third party endorsement 142 00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:35.269 in the media or from an analyst, in promoting that through a BM email, 143 00:11:35.309 --> 00:11:39.470 marketing and other means. That's critically important to even getting a second look, 144 00:11:39.509 --> 00:11:43.509 let alone being part of a consideration set for a for a major purchase. 145 00:11:43.590 --> 00:11:48.419 Next sense, he said. It's yes, very much sure, and 146 00:11:48.820 --> 00:11:50.980 we was order content fore. But that's what Thoris, you can be used 147 00:11:50.980 --> 00:11:54.659 forul generating, choring. The rest of people are fighting. You all pretty 148 00:11:54.700 --> 00:11:58.539 consulting people. Yeah, you know this. You're not moving forward with someone. 149 00:11:58.700 --> 00:12:03.049 So we're governing, generating the interests. I'll can be out from those 150 00:12:03.090 --> 00:12:09.490 too big too super bowls. I mean bound bucketing strategy. Well, I 151 00:12:09.649 --> 00:12:13.049 think that in bound marketing, which I guess was coined by hub spot, 152 00:12:13.929 --> 00:12:18.879 is very pretty much the same as, and was called before hups Butt coined 153 00:12:18.919 --> 00:12:22.200 of this, Inbale market it was known as content marketing, and and in 154 00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:28.679 Bale marketing is centered around content. And if you think about it, one 155 00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:33.509 of the reasons that indale marketing is really had to evolve over time is over 156 00:12:33.590 --> 00:12:39.710 the last ten years, the content that it used to be able to put 157 00:12:39.750 --> 00:12:45.419 some advice, content or just helpful informational content out there and you could get 158 00:12:45.460 --> 00:12:48.620 to the top of search results, you can stand out, you could get 159 00:12:48.620 --> 00:12:52.740 authority and they could help your thought leadership position. But what happened was, 160 00:12:54.100 --> 00:12:58.490 you know, everybody started doing it, and so that meant that you had 161 00:13:00.009 --> 00:13:03.610 lots of me to content out there, lots of just repetitive content. It 162 00:13:03.809 --> 00:13:11.850 became harder and harder in doing inbound marketing or content marketing, to really stand 163 00:13:11.929 --> 00:13:16.720 out in putting content out there. And so where I think you are really 164 00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:22.080 helped here is here is really doing the same things content marketing, except we, 165 00:13:22.600 --> 00:13:26.149 you know, PR folks, have a higher bar that we need to 166 00:13:26.830 --> 00:13:31.230 get over, which is to come up with a an idea for a piece 167 00:13:31.269 --> 00:13:37.509 of content that has enough originality or substance to it that the media would want 168 00:13:37.509 --> 00:13:41.860 to cover it. And so what we've often found is that if we can 169 00:13:41.899 --> 00:13:46.539 come up with the kinds of story ideas, the kinds of content ideas that 170 00:13:46.179 --> 00:13:50.860 can can get some buzz and get some attention, say, in the media 171 00:13:50.980 --> 00:13:56.169 in one of our clients industry spaces, that is often the kind of top 172 00:13:56.210 --> 00:14:01.809 of the funnel inbell marketing content that breaks through the noise. As well, 173 00:14:01.169 --> 00:14:05.090 and so whether that to lots of PR techniques that have been around forever, 174 00:14:05.649 --> 00:14:11.039 like, for example, instead of just having an opinion about something and putting 175 00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:16.840 that out there as content, doing a survey, doing original research and positioning 176 00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:22.519 that research to have a headline, a headline that media would be interested in. 177 00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:26.110 I'll give you one example. We did this for a client that was 178 00:14:26.230 --> 00:14:31.309 in the last year. It's in the space, the indoor cellular coverage space. 179 00:14:31.429 --> 00:14:37.309 They basically built systems anywhere from a hundred thousand dollars to in the millions 180 00:14:37.620 --> 00:14:45.659 to help these office buildings and so forth to amplify cellular signals so that when 181 00:14:45.860 --> 00:14:50.139 you could have, you know, perfect mobile coverage within within a building, 182 00:14:50.179 --> 00:14:54.809 because most buildings are not here to that. So what this company wanted to 183 00:14:54.889 --> 00:15:00.129 do, what the plant wanted to do, was to let they wanted to 184 00:15:00.210 --> 00:15:05.330 make inroads into commercial real estate space and they wanted building owners to know that 185 00:15:05.049 --> 00:15:11.440 this was an important consideration and that if you set up your building to have 186 00:15:11.679 --> 00:15:18.679 really good sell your coverage, that you could charge more per square hood and 187 00:15:18.840 --> 00:15:22.710 things like that. And so what we did is we put together survey that 188 00:15:24.190 --> 00:15:30.470 in which we surveyed office workers and we got feedback on how annoyed they were 189 00:15:30.629 --> 00:15:33.309 when they had that coverage and had to go outside to make a phone call 190 00:15:33.389 --> 00:15:35.379 or had to stand next to a window and all the different things that we 191 00:15:35.500 --> 00:15:41.139 all have experienced in using our phones indoors. And then we talked about who 192 00:15:41.139 --> 00:15:45.059 are they blaming? Oh, they're blaming the building owner, they're blaming their 193 00:15:45.059 --> 00:15:48.100 employer. Well then maybe these folks who used to think, oh, that's 194 00:15:48.139 --> 00:15:52.129 for atnt to worry about, maybe they are starting can help them realize oh, 195 00:15:52.250 --> 00:15:54.049 they need to worry about that. So that's a sales message and a 196 00:15:54.129 --> 00:15:58.409 PR message. So using that survey we got coverage in a ton of outlets 197 00:15:58.769 --> 00:16:03.399 here, one outlets, trade outlets. But it was also the basis for 198 00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:10.120 a very successful inbel marketing campaign where we, you know, turn that into 199 00:16:10.159 --> 00:16:14.639 a really good ebook and put the stats within that, use it in email 200 00:16:14.639 --> 00:16:18.710 marketing, use it in as a basis for presentations. We set up the 201 00:16:19.149 --> 00:16:25.750 company's executives to make speak to that emits where they highlight at this data. 202 00:16:26.269 --> 00:16:30.269 So that's pr it's also email marketing and I think that to the extent you 203 00:16:30.389 --> 00:16:34.980 can put no, we're in Bebtech, there's some pretty arcane technologies in our 204 00:16:36.019 --> 00:16:40.620 space, and but whatever space you're in, the number of great ideas is 205 00:16:40.860 --> 00:16:44.220 limited. So when you have a great idea, use it everywhere. You 206 00:16:44.340 --> 00:16:48.009 know, use it in your social using market, in your content, use 207 00:16:48.049 --> 00:16:51.809 it in your pr but the great thing about prs if you approach it from 208 00:16:51.850 --> 00:16:55.370 that perspective, you're not approaching from the respective. This is often happens with 209 00:16:55.529 --> 00:16:59.690 content where it's coming internally and it's kind of the result of naval gaze and 210 00:16:59.730 --> 00:17:02.679 where people like to write about what they think is important. You know, 211 00:17:02.799 --> 00:17:06.599 we're constantly getting the oxygen of what the media, with the outside world, 212 00:17:06.680 --> 00:17:11.000 thinks is important in and what their standards are. And when you're starting with 213 00:17:11.160 --> 00:17:15.279 that, I think it gives you a really good foundation for making sure your 214 00:17:15.400 --> 00:17:18.950 content can maybe cut through the noise a little bit. Yeah, thank I 215 00:17:18.029 --> 00:17:22.829 think that makes that makes no from enough sense. mean. So what did 216 00:17:22.829 --> 00:17:26.589 I come about with you just describe. This is really the pl full reason 217 00:17:26.710 --> 00:17:30.420 of the PR or your days to uspipe playing the Pi. That with the 218 00:17:30.500 --> 00:17:34.740 walk is market. Seeing walk with the camping feed the gap and almost be 219 00:17:34.779 --> 00:17:40.220 an extension of seys and markets in a PR function. He's quite refreshing because, 220 00:17:40.220 --> 00:17:44.180 as I mentioned audio in the in the conduct station. Fears are seen 221 00:17:44.220 --> 00:17:48.009 as just your one, as are often seen as the one. It's and 222 00:17:48.089 --> 00:17:51.769 it was refreshing to the conversation with you today because what you describe was almost 223 00:17:51.809 --> 00:17:55.329 like car. This is an evolution, a mutation from okay, we're just 224 00:17:55.410 --> 00:18:00.440 going to take great contents or great contents or great conversations or piece of analy 225 00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:06.559 studies and put that in the right newspaper or in the right website so your 226 00:18:06.599 --> 00:18:10.480 community or the people you want to send to with see what you're talking about. 227 00:18:10.480 --> 00:18:14.309 Is some pierce is much more embed it much more aware of deals, 228 00:18:14.349 --> 00:18:18.990 a function and also much more ware of the prospect journey. But you're talking 229 00:18:18.990 --> 00:18:21.829 about acquisition, which is, you know, the early stage, getting people, 230 00:18:21.910 --> 00:18:25.789 getting giving them the appetite engage with you. And then you took about 231 00:18:25.869 --> 00:18:30.019 your authority and all thers office that can happen when you're within conversation with them, 232 00:18:30.099 --> 00:18:33.779 so you can flip people your way. That's is a competitor and almost 233 00:18:34.180 --> 00:18:38.380 with the last example that you gave, also figure about the the what up 234 00:18:38.460 --> 00:18:41.930 and after the point of self. But that what happen after you got the 235 00:18:41.009 --> 00:18:45.650 deal and carrying on an INPR almost making your clients being that you are the 236 00:18:45.690 --> 00:18:51.089 best company because they see you you also leader, and that markets in the 237 00:18:51.730 --> 00:18:55.880 marketing team or the sell steam that take care of the is sharing that information 238 00:18:56.000 --> 00:19:00.039 with them make ALD something, must make them feel comfortable about the decision then 239 00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:03.559 made in working with you and as I think it was very, very refreshing. 240 00:19:04.039 --> 00:19:07.240 So thank you very much for that.
