👉103 B2B Sales and Marketing (Extremely Powerful) Expert Tips: Your 80/20 Blog Hack

Reading Time: 14 minutes

Let’s face it, most B2B marketing “content” is dressed up junk, or at best, as appealing as heated-up McDonald’s french fries from the night before — not very. That’s why I’ve gathered the best B2B marketing and sales resources in one place, for your consumption. Enjoy.

“How do you get new information from experts in your field?”

This was a question I was recently asked via survey. And I didn’t have an easy answer.

While blog posts and more easily accessible media like videos and guides were bound to be more up-to-date, I tried sticking to books to avoid having to read another pointless spacekeeper, think, “5 Tips For Creating EPIC Content.” Ugh.

Let’s face it, much of the marketing “content” out there is garbage or at least the equivalent of reheated McDonald’s french fries. The problem is, that while there seems to be loads of B2B marketing and general  information available for noobs, there’s nothing worthwhile for those that have been to previous rodeos.

Or so I thought…

I created this post to change that. I have scanned, sweated over, and searched through hundreds of sites, forums, research papers, webinars, podcasts, infographics, and the like in order to gather the best B2B marketing and sales resources today.

Among other things, they will help you

✅Dominate your B2B social media marketing

✅Drum up more sales leads via email

✅Grow your sales with automation

✅Implement strategies that have made over $200K for similar businesses

✅Stay motivated in this crazy world
