Thank you Sharon Wheeler!

Mike Pitt — Thu, 23 Nov 2017 09:54:55 +0000

In the week that Americans celebrate Thanksgiving I wanted to take the opportunity to share this post originally published on my LinkedIn Page. You can view it here.

For the last few days I have been searching…

but I regret to inform you that I have failed in my search.

I was searching for the first person who took a chance on me and gave me my first permanent job in Marketing.

Months after my appointment I remember her telling me that she had fought for me. There were other candidates being considered.

I was filled with so much gratitude then as I still am now. To have someone believe* IN YOU is a wonderful feeling.

My plan was to thank her again via LinkedIn.

UPDATE: This afternoon I have found her, here on linkedIn, courtesy of advanced search. The person I want to say thank you too is Sharon Wheeler https://lnkd.in/d3rMeRz – Picture above.

Thank you Sharon Wheeler!

Who was the first person to believe in you professionally? If possible, name them in your comments below.

So often we are pushing forwards chasing the next goal or objective. We don’t always get time to reflect and express our gratitude. Have a great day everyone!

Thanks For Reading 400 Blog Posts

Mike Pitt — Thu, 20 Apr 2017 13:43:57 +0000

Hello everyone. We have reached another significant milestone. Thank you for accompanying me on this journey to 400 blog posts. This is the 401st post. It is a great achievement and I’m sure that without you reading my posts that I would not have got this far. I founded Marketing Fundamentals Ltd in October 2010 and blogging was always part of my marketing plan for the business. It is still very effective at driving traffic to our website. Social media is also important, of course, and a lot has changed with Social Media since 2010. Some Social Media platforms have come and gone in the time that I have been blogging. – R.I.P Vine.

400 Blog Posts

What remains constant is the benefits that businesses receive when they start delivering value to their audience in the form of a regular blog. Yes, blogging requires planning and must be well executed but it is definitely worth the investment in time and resource. For a quick flashback to my thoughts when we reached 300 blog posts read this post, What did we Learn from Publishing 300 Blog Posts? We can help you reach your blogging milestones too.

What is Our Approach?

Mike Pitt — Mon, 16 Jan 2017 08:08:21 +0000

Content Marketing has reached the maturity stage in the UK, which means that the majority of B2B companies that we meet with here and internationally have a general understanding of what Content Marketing is now. We no longer have to behave as Content Marketing evangelists as we did when Marketing Fundamentals Ltd was founded in 2010. Market maturity also means that there are quite a few other companies in the marketplace offering Content Marketing and Social Media management services. We have an abundance mindset and welcome healthy competition; furthermore we have come to appreciate that others have their own way of doing things. As far we can tell, our approach is different and I will explain why.

Our Approach

We work with best of breed companies that are exceptional at what they do but unfortunately for them their profile does not match their levels of service or the plaudits they regularly receive from their existing clients. These businesses want to grow their customer base. Our primary objective for these businesses is the building of new long-term relationships for them and our conduit is content. From these relationships will come new leads and sales. We take a qualitative approach to content creation, in most cases it will be the same person writing your corporate blog posts week in and week out. The benefit of this is that we really get to understand your business not just on a superficial level but also the subtleties and nuances.

This means that we are easily able to cross reference earlier posts and to perform efficiently as part of your team. The posts that we write for you deliver value to your audience. We work collaboratively with you and will integrate relevant company news and updates into your Content Calendar. Our Social Media strategies follow a similar qualitative approach, we use the appropriate platforms to boost engagement and generate new leads and sales for your business. We have taken Paul Graham’s words to heart.

‘Do things that don’t scale.’ – Paul Graham, Founder of Y Combinator

I think for this reason we will never become a monolithic agency. We strongly value our relationships with our clients and provide wonderful service for them. We are not in relentless pursuit of more clients. We enjoy working with our clients and building new relationships for them. Our clients are active in high value markets including construction, architecture, engineering and property development to name a few. These are sectors in which we can deliver the most value.

Delivering Results

A new project secured via Content Marketing and Social Media activity in these sectors can mean millions of pounds of additional revenue and a ROI of several thousand per cent. This is not hypothetical; we have delivered new sales of this magnitude. We even helped one of our clients get acquired by a multinational company by raising their profile and visibility in their industry over the course of two years. This is not something we can guarantee for everyone, of course.

We are grateful to work with companies and organisations that recognise the value that we bring and are prepared to compensate us appropriately for the positive impact we can have on their bottom line. Would you like to increase your company’s visibility and generate new sales? If what I have written has resonated with you and you would like to work with us contact me to arrange a meeting. I will be happy to hear from you. If you have enjoyed this post you will also like, What do we do at Marketing Fundamentals Ltd?

What Were Your First 6 Months of Blogging Like?

Mike Pitt — Mon, 18 Jan 2016 11:37:13 +0000

This is blog post 333. This blog post is an answer I gave on Quora to the question, What Were Your first 6 Months of Blogging Like? I decided to share it here because I believe it will give encouragement to B2B bloggers and marketing professionals who work with agencies to create great content.

‘ This is a great question. I had very realistic expectations when I started blogging professionally in 2010. I was working for a large international advertising agency as a consultant at the time I started my blog and knew that it would take time to build an audience. The results were much better than I expected. Within a few weeks of blogging I had people commenting on my posts on my website and responding to the posts when I tweeted them on Twitter. I was starting a lot of conversations and people appreciated that I was creating great content rather than just retweeting other people’s content.
I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly people responded and can only attribute that to the content because the website template I was using at the time was horrible! Haha. In hindsight I was fortunate that my consultancy work meant that I had a ‘long runway’ with regard to the blog. I didn’t need to earn money from it straightaway and I was able to develop what I refer to as my Blog Voice as I wrote each week. At that point I had committed to writing a post per week.

Advice for Bloggers

My advice to you is this:

1. Commit to a regular weekly time slot to write your posts and also a regular time to publish them. Your audience will come to expect them and you’ll see spikes in web traffic on these days.
2. Do not be discouraged, at one point every blogger in the world has had the thought that no-one is reading their posts. In most cases, this is incorrect. It’s just that only a small percentage of people confirm they have read your posts or leave a comment.
3. Good luck with your blog and if you’d like me read one of your posts message me and I will give you honest feedback.’
