5 ways ChatGPT will change the future of B2B content marketing woman at computer image

If you haven’t heard the jokes yet, you will. ChatGPT is the terminator, and all of us content marketers are Sarah Connor. It’s only a matter of time before the evil machines seize our jobs out from under us and send us scrambling for one of the six journalism positions left on the planet. If, someway, somehow, we want to stay in marketing, our only desperate recourse will be to learn how keywords actually work, or worse… try PAID SEARCH.

…Ok, so the reality isn’t all that dramatic, no matter what those jokers in SEO want you to believe. There is, however, a grain of truth behind all the ribbing: the fact is, ChatGPT and advanced machine learning AI like it is going to change how content marketing works forever. In fact, it already is. It’s just not going to replace content marketing or content marketers.

Top 2023 trust statistics that B2B marketers will love people jumping in front of sunset image

It’s almost Valentine’s Day, that commodified and commercialized celebration of the most bountiful and free resource we have.

But cynicism aside, love in all its forms is a beautiful thing worth celebrating. And one absolutely essential part of love is trust. It’s asking someone to put their trust in you and having faith you will get the same in return. That’s something no amount of flowers and chocolate can buy.

As a marketer, you want customers to fall in love with your brand. But that type of love requires trust, too. And on that point, we’ve got good news and bad news.

Edelman just published their 2023 Trust Barometer. It’s always an eye-opening read, and this year has some fascinating stats that marketers need to know.

5 ways Google's Bard and Microsoft's Bing change the future of SEO woman walking in a forest of purple flowers image
How is ChatGPT artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot technology changing search engine optimization (SEO), and how will the major shifts being implemented by Google, Microsoft and others alter the business marketing landscape of the future?

During my 39 years working in online communications I’ve seen immense changes in search engine technology and how businesses optimize their ever-growing collections of digital content, and consider AI’s impact on the search industry to be one of the biggest shifts yet.

ChatGPT — short for generative pre-trained transformer — was rolled out as a prototype in November 2022 by the OpenAI AI research organization, and takes the form of a website interface where users type in questions and receive written responses.

Elevate B2B marketing with audience passions women at laptop image

My sister has an uncanny ability to buy the perfect present for everyone in her life. Every time she gives me a gift, I’m surprised at how thoroughly perfect it is — and most of the time, I didn’t even realize I wanted whatever it was she got me. In fact, her gift giving ability is so good that I swear sometimes she can read minds.

Of course, she can’t actually read minds. No, her gift giving superpower is nothing more than listening to the people around her and understanding them. For example, she listened to me talk about my love for science fiction and my enthusiasm for getting dressed up, which made it easy enough for her to delight me with a space-themed tie clip.

The myth of recession-proof B2B marketing businessman holding umbrella against headwinds image

Is recession-proof marketing genuinely possible in the uncertain headwinds of 2023, and — if not — what can B2B marketers do instead to best weather the storm?

Recession-proof B2B marketing may sound reassuring, however blindly buying into it could at the very least cause unwanted surprises, and at the worst end up proving disastrous.

Thankfully, there are marketing tactics that persevere better than others during uncertainty, however none will be quite the digital panacea that some have been recently touting.

97 percent of chief marketing officers and brand managers have said that inflation and recession concerns were a top concern when it comes to what keeps them awake at night, according to the most recent “Marketing on My Mind” survey — concerns that were new to the 2022 edition of the list.
