Did you build your marketing strategy to impress leadership in a meeting, or to actually use it?Deep breath. Be honest.Most marketers rush through building their strategy, cramming in everything leadership asks for so they look good in the presentation. Then it gets filed away, never referenced again, and you're back on the task wheel wondering why nothing's working.📚 Get the Strategic Marketer Kit mentioned in this episode: https://b2bjade.myflodesk.com/wlihflj5vm Join the FREE Live Strategy Clinic - Thursday 30th April: https://b2bjade.myflodesk.com/strategyclinicB2B Breakthrough Academy doors open 28th April (closes 7th May, we start 11th May): b2bjade.com/breakthrough-academyIn this episode, I'm walking you through my Strategic Marketer Prep Kit - the exact workbook every student completes before starting B2B Breakthrough Academy.Why prep before building your strategy?Think of it like clearing the ground before you build a house. You need to understand where you actually are right now, where you want to be, and what's really going on with your business and leaders before you can build something solid.Part 1: Get honest with yourself (the uncomfortable bit)Write down words to describe where you are as a marketer right now - overwhelmed? scattered? invisible?What does a typical day actually look like?How do you respond when leadership asks for something?Can you explain your current strategy in 2-3 sentences without looking at the document?When was the last time you actually used your strategy to guide your activity?The big one: Did you build this strategy to impress leadership or to actually use it?When you look at your strategy document, what do you feel? (Excited? Overwhelmed? Confused? Like burning it?)Part 2: The leadership conversation (I've written it out for you)Schedule 30-45 minutes with your leadership team and ask:Where is the business trying to get to in the next 3-5 years?What's currently standing in the way of hitting these goals?Who is our best customer? (The one who's easy to service, profitable, and you'd clone 100 times)What does strategic marketing mean to you?If marketing could solve one problem for the business this year, what would it be?Part 3: Complete the workbook using their insightsWhat's working, what's not, who your ideal clients actually are, who your competitors are.Why this process matters:You can't build a strategy leadership will back if you haven't taken them on the journey with you. After this one conversation, many leaders already start seeing you as more strategic - because you're being proactive, not just pushing back or firefighting.Also in this episode:I'm introducing AI Jade - she's been fully trained on my brain, the B2B Breakthrough Academy framework, and hours of my consulting calls. Unlike ChatGPT which pulls from millions of different approaches and might send you off course, AI Jade only knows my specific framework for building simple B2B strategies that get leadership buy-in.Students tell me this programme is better than their degree and any course they've taken combined. Not because I'm amazing, but because I built what was missing - simple strategy with no jargon that leaders can understand and you can actually deliver.The plan:Spend April getting honest with this workbook. Join me 30th April for the Live Strategy Clinic to reflect on what you've discovered. Then if you're ready, doors open 28th April to build your complete strategy with me starting 11th May.Stop building strategies to impress. Start building strategies you'll actually use.Jade x#b2bmarketing #marketingstrategy #strategicmarketing #leadershipbuyin

But becoming a strategic marketer is actually about learning what to throw away.

It's about figuring out the mind strategy techniques you need to be taken seriously. Because you can build the most beautiful marketing strategy in the world, but if you can't get the company to back you on it, you're stuck.

This is the stumbling block most marketers fall into. They don't believe mindset work is as important as learning the tactical skills.

Let's stop calling it mindset work - it sounds fluffy. Let's call it mind strategy.

You need to learn to build a marketing strategy AND you need to work on your mind strategy. Because if no one buys into your plan, you won't be able to activate it.

I'm breaking down exactly how to build marketing objectives that actually work - the kind that align with business goals, guide your entire strategy, and get leadership buy-in (instead of getting filed away and forgotten).

You'll learn:

• Why SMART objectives can actually get you into trouble in B2B marketing
• The difference between objectives, key results, and success indicators (and why this matters)
• Real examples from inside B2B Breakthrough Academy showing exactly how to structure your objectives
• Why "double the leads in 12 months" sets you up for failure
• How to avoid the tick-box marketing strategy trap
• The minimalist approach to marketing (and why having fewer things in your kitchen relates to your marketing strategy)
• Why analytics-obsessed marketers might be killing their brand salience
• How one person giving my webinar 1/5 stars was actually a massive win

Real examples covered in this episode:

• Company Focus Area examples (like machinery sales companies diversifying their client portfolio)
• How to write objectives that guide strategy instead of locking you into tactics
• Business scorecard metrics that actually matter to leadership
• Success indicators you can pull out when leadership wants to know "how did that happen?"

This isn't fluffy marketing theory. These are the actual templates and examples from inside B2B Breakthrough Academy that have helped marketers get their budgets increased, win leadership respect, and build strategies that actually get used.

Bonus tangents: Why I'm moving away from AI for content brainstorming, my obsession with minimalism, whether you need a spatula to flip pancakes, and why brand salience beats conversion metrics every time.

In this episode, I'm talking about why decluttering your marketing plan is so important, now more than ever.

Your leaders think that being everywhere means you're more likely to get seen. But actually, the opposite is true. When you spread yourself thin across lots of activities, none of them actually stick.

In this episode, I cover: 

✅ Why we're so stressed at work (and what to do about it

✅ What minimalism is and isn't (and why it's made me happier)

✅ How to apply minimalist principles to your marketing

✅ The real reason jumping between tactics never works

✅ Why I got 500 people to sign up for my masterclass without spending a penny on ads

✅ How to declutter your mindset AND your marketing plan

✅ The difference between "I need" and "we need" language with leadership

I'll also share how I started my minimalism journey in 2022 when I had two kids and was completely overwhelmed - and how the same principles that helped me declutter my life have transformed how I run my marketing.

If you're stuck on the marketing task wheel and ready to simplify, this one's for you.

My talk at the CIM: Wales Digital Marketing Forum.

B2B social media is not working, I share why this is and how I overcame it. I share my 10 step process for successful B2B social media But first, here's why we're not seeing the results we want: - Marketing's Traditional Role: We're often stuck supporting sales on a task wheel, with no time to be strategic. - Random Content: Sporadic, unplanned posts that jump around in topics aren't helping our cause. - Too low frequency: Often we aren't posting enough to get eyeballs in front of our content. - Messaging Indifference: Content that doesn't actually answer any burning questions our audience has means zero scroll-stopping. This approach is not just theory; it's a proven strategy that has worked for me and can work for you too.

I share how I use data and stats to get buy in from leaders who are perhaps skeptical about moving away from traditional and dated selling models into more modern approaches that will get better results in B2B companies.

I also share exciting news on reaching 20k followers on TikTok, thanking the community for how lovely it's been interacting over the past year as the channel (B2B Jade) has evolved.

I get vulnerable too, sharing how it felt uncomfortable recently going viral and being attacked on a stat I shared, but how it's important to leave our comfort zones while knowing out stuff - inside and out!

I review and audit five B2B companies, focusing on brand positioning and effective communication with ideal clients. I discuss the challenges faced by B2B companies and highlight the importance of consistent value communication. I then provide the audits for TrustShare, Energize, Austin-Smith:Lord, Infonyx and Drimify, emphasising the need to address target audience pain points and stand out from competitors.

I live demo my downloadable template for mapping your b2b buyer journey. Also sharing the different models available and why I decided to create this more simple to use, fuss free template.

This template is no longer available as a freebie since I launched my new website, for help please contact me.

The template is available with many others in my course.

For International Women's Day 2023 I talk about the history of women in marketing and what we can learn from them as we navigate challenging situations at work. I give my tips on how to cope with being in a more traditionally male dominated industry and environment. I also review some advertising campaigns - good and bad - as part of checking out what's been happening out there in the world of brand during International Women's Day 2023.
