Why we love Greg’s POV on SOV
Greg Coticchia is a six-time CEO, four-time founder, author of Start Your Startup, and a marketing and business professor at Carnegie Mellon and the University of Pittsburgh. He’s been Bryan’s client at least three times, and most importantly, Bryan considers him a friend and mentor.
In this episode, Greg and Bryan discuss
- Understanding the core problem your customers face
- Developing a clear, consistent message that speaks directly to customer pain points
- Recognizing that B2B purchases involve multiple stakeholders and are not transactional
- Maintaining momentum through consistent communication and innovation
- Creating a solution that offers significant improvement over existing alternatives
The most critical action you can take is to clarify the pain or gain you're solving for your target audience. Understand your customers' challenges and craft a marketing strategy that speaks directly to their needs. Remember, in B2B marketing, you're not just selling a product – you're offering a partnership that can transform your customer's business.
