How To Create A B2B Content Strategy For YouTube [Podcast]

Unlocking B2B Visibility: Mastering YouTube’s Potential

YouTube is a powerful platform for B2B marketers, but many organizations still need to start using it to its full potential.

Ali Schwanke, founder at Simple Strat and Host of HubSpot Hacks, joined me on the SEJShow to share her top tips for creating a successful B2B YouTube strategy- including using YouTube’s new features to make your videos more discoverable.

Gain insight into the rising importance of YouTube in B2B marketing, leveraging podcast features, differentiating strategies for marketers, the role of video in an AI era, and much more.

We run a channel called HubSpot Hacks over on YouTube, with about 18,000 subscribers. We just crossed over a million views earlier this year, and we’re a small team of 10. –Ali Schwanke, 00:41

YouTube happens to be a place where there is very little competition for most B2B companies. So if we do help people on YouTube, it’s because the barrier to entry is very high, and so the competition’s low. –Ali Schwanke, 02:00

You can create videos so that they just earn a rabbit hole. So if I sent viewers a video every day, it’d take 30 days to get to know me. But if I create an experience for you and your journey that you consume 30 videos in four days because they’re just so one after the other, yes, I’ve accelerated that relationship building, and that’s what we’re seeing. –Ali Schwanke, 14:18

How I recommend people use AI is less about the editing and more about the strategy. –Ali Schwanke, 28:57

You have to get outside your box of, “everybody’s ready to buy today, and we’re going top of the funnel.” We’re saying, “how do I create interesting content?” So people just go, “you know what, that company is different. I kind of wanna pay attention to them because attention, time, and convenience are the currency that we all have today.” –Ali Schwanke, 32:17

If you’re going to go onto YouTube as a B2B company with human personalities, you do need to have people that are comfortable on camera and know what it’s gonna take from them to be on camera consistently. –Ali Schwanke, 34:05
