Stephen Tseng

Branding and lead generation are the top 2 goals for B2B digital marketing.

Almost no exception.

Which one has more priority for most B2B companies?👇🏻

First priority: lead generation.

Most B2B companies will put this as the first priority.

Why?

The reason is simple. The leads might become revenue in the short run.

Second priority: branding.

They all know branding is important.

But the reality is that it takes a long time to build up a brand.

It is also hard to measure branding ROI.

Let’s face the reality.

Most B2B companies should put more resources into lead generation in short-term planning.

On the flip side, B2B companies should put enough resources into branding in the long-term planning.
