This week, John sits down with content legend Ross Simmonds. Ross is the founder and CEO of Foundational Marketing, an agency focused on distribution, as well as the (new!) author of "Create Once, Distribute Forever." Discussed in this episode: Leading with value is crucial in content marketing to avoid being banned or blocked from platforms. Content creators should prioritize distribution to reach a larger audience and maximize the impact of their work. Content has the potential to live beyond the creator and inspire future generations. Repurposing and updating existing content can be an effective strategy for book writing and content creation. Distribution channels like Facebook groups and Twitter chats have evolved over time and require continuous adaptation. Understanding the power of distribution can lead to life-changing opportunities and the ability to make a global impact. Provide value on native platforms and view content distribution as a long-term game of touch points and connection. Test ideas and concepts to see if they resonate with the audience and have content market fit. Creating high-quality content that educates, engages, entertains, or empowers is key. Be strategic and creative in repurposing and sharing content across different channels. *** Thanks to my friends at hatch.fm for producing this episode, the promotional clips, and handling the overall production of Louder Than Words .

This week, John sits down with Chris Savage, co-founder and CEO at Wistia. The team at Wistia has always approached content differently than most other companies. They host, and film, parades. They buy and refurbish old station wagons. They record original music. All for the content. In this episode, John geeks out with Chris to learn all about the how and why behind Wistia's unique flavor of content over the last 17 years. Discussed in this episode: Creativity and quality are essential in content creation to capture audience attention and build trust. Human connection and trust are crucial in content marketing and brands should focus on building relationships with their audience. Treating content like a product and investing in its quality and research can lead to audience trust and loyalty. Providing a good experience for non-ready customers can help grow the audience and build trust for future conversions.

In this episode, John hangs out with recovering in-house marketer, now founder of Growth Sprints, Brendan Hufford. In the past, Hufford worked in both growth and SEO for companies like ActiveCampaign. Now, he works with SaaS companies to help take them grow through short, focused sprints using his SaaS Growth Sprint framework. Discussed in this episode: Navigating bureaucracy requires understanding the value of stair stepping and starting with a V1, V2, V3 approach. Transitioning from one career to another often involves taking a step back to gain momentum and escape toxic work environments. Creating a personal brand and consistently producing content can lead to opportunities and growth. Bigger companies often undervalue creative work and prioritize numbers and politicking. The role of individual contributors who have an audience that aligns with the company's audience is highly valuable. Why companies should embrace creators who can not only create content but also contribute to the company's growth. Being interested in your audience and sharing interesting stories and experiences is more compelling than generic content. Traditional keyword research is becoming less effective, and unique angles in content are more important.

This week, John is joined by Rand Fishkin––one of the true OGs when it comes to B2B content marketing. Rand is the founder and former CEO of Moz and the current founder and CEO of SparkToro. He's also the author of Lost and Founder: A Painfully Honest Field Guide to the Startup World. Discussed in this episode: SparkToro's three-year retrospective The evolution of Rand's marketing approach involved a shift from less strategic and more experimental tactics to a focus on scalability. Balancing scalability and personalization is a key consideration in marketing, with scalable tactics often prioritized for growth. The flywheel mentality in marketing involves investing in tactics that improve over time and deliver better results with each iteration. Working through the challenges of anonymity is crucial for content creators, and success often comes from persistence and stomach for low initial engagement. Standing out in crowded platforms requires finding channels where competition is low and investing in tactics that resonate with the target audience. Designing a business for meaningful engagement involves focusing on a smaller, engaged audience rather than striving for massive numbers. Traditional marketing attribution can be a boondoggle, and focusing on vanity metrics can lead to building a marketing flywheel devoid of competition. Emotionally engaging content leads to business growth. Zero-click content is valuable and can provide benefits without requiring a click. Creating shareable content involves promoting insights and interesting takeaways rather than focusing on clicks.

You know Dave Gerhardt. Maybe it's from his days running marketing at Drift. Or from his time hosting the Seeking Wisdom podcast with David Cancel. Or, maybe you've heard of (or are a member of) his B2B community, Exit Five. Point is, if you've been working in B2B marketing at any point in the last decade, you know Dave. In this rare podcast interview, Dave goes into detail on everything that's led him to this point––the solo founder of a $1M business. You'll hear what he learned during his days at Drift, how his community first launched as a side gig, when he knew he could go all in on his own, and all of the details for how he currently runs his business (i.e. how his revenue streams have changed, how he prices sponsorships, where he goes from here, etc.) Enjoy!
