OVERVIEW: THE STATE OF B2B CONTENT MARKETING IN NORTH AMERICA
Greetings Content Marketers,
We have good news to report! B2B content marketers in North America are making strides: 42% consider
themselves eective, up from 36% last year.
Moreover, we also can begin to understandwhymarketers are feeling more condent: For the rst time, we
asked marketers whether they have a documented content strategy (44% do) and a person who oversees
content marketing strategy (73% do). Our ndings tell us that there are distinct dierences between those who
have a strategy and those who do not. Marketers who do are not only more eective but also less challengedwith every aspect of content marketing.
Even though weve made great strides, the industry is clearly still in the early adoption phase. However, some
marketers are seeing substantial success. Read on to nd out what a best-in-class content marketer does
dierently and delve into many other ndings as well.
On with the content marketing revolution!

B2B marketers have cited Web traic and sales lead quality as
their top content marketing metrics for the last three years.
B2B marketers cited each of these criterion a
bit more frequently than they did last year,
with the exception of direct sales, qualitative
feedback from customers, inbound links,
and increased customer loyalty, all of which
decreased slightly. Subscriber growth was
a new option.
The least eective B2B marketers place more
importance on direct sales, citing it as their
fourth top criterion (tied with social media
sharing). The most eective marketers rank
direct sales as their eighth most importantcriterion.
Over the last four years, direct sales has
consistently gone down in importance as a
measurement criterion.
