Make good marketing, not just good content

We help B2B startups and scaleups create commercially effective content by blending the reach and recall of brand marketing with the positioning and persuasion of product marketing.

Content is not a
marketing strategy

Problem

It's a collection of media and formats. When you put media before marketing, you get highly engaging, highly random acts of content with zero commercial outcomes.

Unprinciple marketing

Content engines, pillars, programs, calendars... Content takes center stage while we neglect the marketing principles it should serve.

Cross-08.png

Random acts of content

Content lives fragmented across every marketing specialization and channel without direction, alignment, or accountability.

No commercial outcomes

Content accumulates likes, views, traffic, or downloads, but it doesn't build long-term brand recall or short-term sales efficiency.

Solution

Put the marketing
back in your content

Content pillars, calendars, programs, and strategies don't produce commercially effective content. Brand marketing and product marketing do.

Guiding principles

Brand marketing and product marketing give content clearly defined swim lanes, guiding principles, objectives, and goals.

Unified messaging

Brand marketing and product marketing work together to amplify positioning, messaging, narrative, and associations.

Commercial outcomes

Brand builds recall with out-market buyers. Product reduces friction for in-market buyers. Together, they drive growth today and tomorrow.

How it works

We don't set out to create the best content; we set out to create the best brand marketing and product marketing using content. Big difference.

Diagnosis

Growth stage, revenue targets, product lines, and roadmap all influence the balance between brand and product. So we start here.

• Business diagnosis

• Marketing maturity

• Roadmap review

• Gap analysis

• Goal setting

Associations

We help you define the network of brand and product associations we need to amplify so buyers know how you fit within their world.

•  Positioning

• Messaging

• Narrative

• Buying triggers

Product marketing

We use rational education to frame your product(s) value differently for each segment so in-market buyers know why, what, and how to buy.

• Product/persona pages

• Sales enablement

• Go-to-market 

• Product launches

• Case studies

Brand marketing

We use emotive brand messaging to make you memorable and category famous so future buyers think of you first when the move in-market.

• Organic campaigns

• Series production

• Linkedin organic

• Brand activations

• Brand ad campaigns

How it works

Good marketing communications works over two timeframes: fast (product marketing) and slow (brand marketing). We work with clients on one, many, or all of the modules in the Marketing, Fast and Slow Framework below.

How it works

We use brand marketing to create memorable associations so future buyers think of you when they move in-market. We use product marketing to turn those buyers into customers, fast.

How it works

We don't set out to create the best content; we set out to create the best brand marketing and product marketing. Big difference.

More sales today. More sales tomorrow.

We turn your website into a central hub for positioning and messaging so in-market buyers know what, why, and how to buy and go-to-market and sales know what, why, and how to sell.

Build recall with brand marketing

We use emotive campaigns and original media to sear memorable associations into the minds of future buyers so they think of you first when the move in-market.

Frequently asked questions

  • I started Peanut Butter because pitching innovative ideas within the org is like playing a game of political hot potato. Too much personal risk turns B2B marketing into dull, forgettable drivel. I loathe that. If people like my ideas and playbooks, they come straight to me at Peanut Butter. I don't have to skirt around my boss's ego or internally market our data-backed ideas for 12 months. Clients pre-qualify themselves. Together, we push B2B marketing forward.

  • It depends on the scope of our work. But everything is measurable. Yes, even brand marketing. Product launches, product page copy and messaging, brand recall... if we can measure it and report on it, we will.

  • I work directly with all of our clients. Though I have a small group of reliable contractors, I don't outsource your account to a junior brand marketer or product marketer. You get me. And there's only so many hours in the day, so I limit capacity to make sure everyone gets what they deserve and pay for.

  • Me (Drew) and occasionally a few trusted contractors depending on the scope of our partnership. 

  • Because peanut butter is sticky and it spreads, and that's exactly what I intend on doing with your company: making you sticky in the minds of buyers and category famous. Plus peanut starts with a "P" and so does product marketing and butter starts with a "B" and so does brand marketing. 

Make good marketing, not just good content

It's time.
