Being super busy is still a woefully outdated badge of honor for so many business owners. We equate busy with successful. Why do we do this? Because we also have an outdated viewpoint of what success looks like. We all need clients to be in business—the word itself reads like busy-ness.

In the B2B marketing toolkit, white papers can be a powerful option for reaching decision-makers and experts, presenting them with interesting information that improves their perception of your organization's competence and thought leadership.

Last week, a post from social media management platform Sprout Social made me stop dead in my scrolling tracks. The post promoted new research that showed executives expect an increase in their companies’ use of social media data, and – much more notably – in the number of departments throughout the company leveraging social media data.

It’s astounding that the everyday enterprise uses 1,295 cloud services, on average, to break down information silos, according to a 2019 report.
