In this video, Mike Pitt discusses, Why I Stopped Using Quotes in my Marketing. This video will be of interest B2B marketing managers, Content Marketing professionals, Social Media Managers, business owners, and anyone considering using Social Media to promote their businesses.

Inspirational Quotes

In business, as in life, it has become common to use inspirational quotes to emphasise a particular point or perspective. In this video, I discuss the dangers of  adopting this approach and use three examples from famous people to illustrate my points. The famous people mentioned are Winston Churchill, Henry Ford and Tony Robbins.  I also discuss another consideration that is rarely mentioned, I hope you find my video useful.

Stopped Using Quotes

Once, I identified the problems with using quotes in marketing materials, I stopped using them. A few years ago, I filmed a series on YouTube entitled, Quotations for Life. I would not film such a series now. I hope you have found my video discussion useful.

Has this video caused you to re-consider your approach with quotes? Let me know in the comments section below.

This video is called, Is SlideShare Dead? By Mike Pitt. If you want to subscribe to our YouTube channel, you can . Mike Pitt is the Founder of Marketing Fundamentals Ltd, a B2B Content Marketing Agency in London.

In this video, Mike Pitt discusses, Is SlideShare Dead?

This video will be of interest to business owners, B2B marketing managers, Content Marketing professionals, Social Media Managers and others who use Social Media to promote their businesses.

Is SlideShare Dead ?

A few years ago, SlideShare used to be a very important platform; SlideShare is a platform you could consider as ‘YouTube for  presentations’. LinkedIn bought SlideShare in 2012 for $119 million. You can access SlideShare from your LinkedIn profile.

In this video, I demonstrate how to do this and give my thoughts on the current state of SlideShare.

LinkedIn’s Priorities

In the years since LinkedIn’s purchase of SlideShare, the senior management of LinkedIn may have changed their priorities. Is SlideShare still important to them? In the video I speculate as to what I think their new priorities are now. When you have watched the video, I’d be happy to hear your views.

Do you use SlideShare ? Have you uploaded uploaded many presentations ? Let me know in the comments section below. If this is the first time you have heard of it, let me know that in the comments section.

It has taken us a while to find the right email partner but we believe that Constant Contact has the flexibility to meet our email needs and yours too.

This video is called, Can LinkedIn Save LinkedIn Groups? By Mike Pitt.   . Mike Pitt is the Founder of Marketing Fundamentals Ltd, which is a B2B Content Marketing Agency in London.

In this video, Mike Pitt answers the question, Can LinkedIn Save LinkedIn Groups? LinkedIn will soon try to revive LinkedIn Groups. Will they be successful? LinkedIn Groups ‘died’ because they became Spam City. Hear Mike’s thoughts in the video.

This video will be of interest to business owners, B2B marketing managers, Content Marketing professionals, Social Media Managers and others who use Content Marketing and Social Media to promote their B2B business or organisation.

Can LinkedIn Save LinkedIn Groups?

A few years ago, LinkedIn Groups were a great place to go online to make connections and have healthy discussions about topics that related to your area of expertise. At that time,  LinkedIn Groups were integrated into the LinkedIn website and app. Unfortunately, after some time a lot of these groups became overrun with spam. Group members would post their links, often out of context of any discussion that was taking place. It became a big problem and lots of LinkedIn Groups no longer provided any true value to their members. LinkedIn is planning to revive LinkedIn Groups. Watch the video to hear Mike Pitt’s thoughts.

This video is called, How to Increase Your Company Page Followers By Mike Pitt. Mike Pitt is the Founder of Marketing Fundamentals Ltd, which is a B2B Content Marketing Agency in London.

LinkedIn Company Page Followers

I created this video after a subscriber of my YouTube channel asked the question, how do you increase your LinkedIn Company Page followers? It is a good question, so I have answered it in this video. If you have any questions that you’d like me to answer, leave a comment on my YouTube channel and I will come back to you.

In this video, I  explain how to increase the number of LinkedIn Company Page followers of your business.

This video will be of interest to business owners, B2B marketing managers, Content Marketing professionals, Social Media Managers and others who use Content Marketing and Social Media to promote their B2B business or organisation. Thanks for watching and reading.

Increasing Followers

For Content Marketing professionals and Social Media managers, LinkedIn Company Page followers are an important metric to monitor. When people voluntarily follow your Company Page on LinkedIn they are demonstrating their interest in your Content and the services that your company offers. With a structured approach and careful nurturing, these followers can be moved down your sales funnel and be converted into customers. It is important to get the Content mix right and to distribute widely, I explain how to do this in the video.
