Why B2B Companies Should Focus on LinkedIn: “For a lot of B2B SaaS companies or just B2B companies in general, the effort that it would take to win on TikTok or another social platform is so much higher than the effort that it would take to do LinkedIn well because your audience is just hanging out there all day and they want to consume business-related content." — Tommy Clark, [00:04:07 → 00:04:23]
Building a Content Marketing Funnel: “If you're a founder, it's like, what type of content do you want to be known for? And then once you have that idea figured out, then what I like to do is break it up into what I call a content funnel. So top-of-funnel, middle-of-funnel, bottom-of-funnel content. It's a good way to organize the way you think about the types of posts that you're making." — Tommy Clark, [00:07:41 → 00:07:58]
How to Get Started on LinkedIn Content Creation: “If there's a client that we work with that has been totally dark on LinkedIn, or maybe they've posted like twice in the past two years, but they're going to start posting again because they've seen this podcast or they've seen someone else's content around how posting as a founder is super beneficial, what I would do is just make an intro post, like a quick context, or give some quick context on your backstory. Say why you're going to start posting, and then give your audience an idea of what to expect."— Tommy Clark, [00:15:17 → 00:15:43]
