AI Idea Starters, B2B Influencers, & Organic LinkedIn Tactics with Dave Gerhardt - Ep 31

Episode notes

Wow, Season Two is kicking off strong with this incredible episode with Dave Gerhardt, an astonishing marketer and the Founder & CEO of Exit Five. Dave joins Craig Rosenberg and Matt Amundson to share how he approaches using AI for B2B marketing, why LinkedIn influencers present a huge opportunity for B2B brands, and the outsized impact that building a strong Founder Brand can have for startups. Also, Matt shares his innermost feelings about Dave and Craig examines his own facial hair. Critical Takeaways Social media should be treated as the primary marketing channel for B2B SaaS brands, not just a supplementary piece of your strategy. AI tools are best used as an “idea starter” to get your writing going, rather than relying on the artificial intelligence to do the actual writing itself. Working with micro-influencers who have a strong, niche following can be highly effective in B2B SaaS. To see good results, it's important to create offers and content that align with what their audience wants to see. Narrowing down your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) is crucial for B2B growth.
