Attract and Engage Technology Buyers With Thought Leadership

Most marketing strategies focus on demonstrating business impact to existing business models and use cases. This method actually limits the opportunity for vendors to be seen as innovative and forward thinking. What technology buyers really want are strategic technology partners who inspire them to think differently about how to solve problems in a proven way based on experience and insight. The right messaging and content can build trust and influence buyers to engage with you earlier in the buyer’s journey and position you as a strategic partner rather than a solution to today’s business problem. In fact, 27% percent of Gartner-surveyed technology buyers cited thought leadership content as the information most likely to influence them to engage with a vendor and explore solutions further. In addition, 33% of Gartner-surveyed technology marketers from organizations with $50 million or less in revenue indicated that thought leadership content is the single-highest driver of marketing-qualified leads (MQLs) into the top of the marketing funnel.
