HOW MOST COMPANIES ARE
RESPONDING
MOST COMPANIES RESPOND WITH MORE CONTENT
THE CONTENT ROI DISCONNECT (AND
COST)
BOTH SALES AND MARKETING ARE UNCERTAIN ON CONTENT’S ROI
● Only 34% of all marketers are satisfied with their organization's content marketing effectiveness
● Less than 10% of all content marketing produces gets used by sales reps
AND FRICTION BETWEEN BUYERS AND SELLERS PERSISTS
HOW THE BEST COMPANIES APPROACH SALES
ENABLEMENT
THE BEST COMPANIES SOLVE THIS BY GOING BEYOND “MORE CONTENT”
