It means creating extensive digital experiences for your users.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let&#8217;s dive into the word &#8220;comprehensive&#8221; for a moment. What exactly is the point of<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">telling a comprehensive brand story<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> across your different digital marketing campaigns? Simple, to make sure your brand is present at every stage in the B2B buyer&#8217;s journey.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"blog-cta-section\">\n<p class=\"blog-cta-heading\">Want to Increase Leads For Your Business?<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog-cta-text\">We would love to take a look at your current search engine positioning and analyze the growth potential within your industry!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why Email Marketing Isn&#8217;t Going Anywhere for B2B<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the B2B space, search marketers are often dealing with elongated sales cycles that call for long lead nurturing campaigns. Because of this elongated sales cycle, your first interaction is rarely going to be a converted win. So, you need to keep after your leads after that initial marketing interaction.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether it&#8217;s publishing, outreach, or follow up &#8211; in the B2B space it&#8217;s all the same. Consistency is key!<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Garrett Mehrguth, Directive CEO &amp; Co-Founder<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because of these elongated lead nurturing campaigns, B2B lead gen campaigns are often spread out over multiple channels. B2B readers rely on a wide array of sources for their different tactics and strategies. More than that, the B2B market is a heavy user of social media. This means if your marketing and sales teams are trying to reach<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hemingwayapp.com\/directiveconsulting.com\/uk\/is-social-media-important\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">B2B leads, social media is a must<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12830\" src=\"https:\/\/directiveconsulting.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/image2-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"523\" srcset=\"https:\/\/directiveconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/image2-2.png 550w, https:\/\/directiveconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/image2-2-300x285.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reaching out to your B2B leads via social for brief marketing touches is a great way to nurture leads over a long sales cycle. Via social, you can harmlessly promote content and ask for feedback. It makes the interaction far more of a conversation than a sales pitch, which is great for engagement. But, you&#8217;re going to need to get down to brass tax eventually. And that&#8217;s where email comes in.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In terms of double and triple touching your different level leads, you should always start with email. Why? An email has a certain professional yet approachable vibe to it that every B2B executive feels comfortable with.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For this reason, email is a great way to get the interaction started. Your email should serve as the touchpoint for your lead to go back and reference as they experience more of your low friction marketing exchanges via social, etc&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Industry Trusted B2B Email Marketing Tools<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depending on what kind of email campaign you are running, you&#8217;ll need to rely on a host of different tools to help scrape contact information and send emails at scale. Here are a few industry-trusted tools.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Buzzstream<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pitchbox<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MailChimp<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ActiveCampaign<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GetResponse<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ConvertKit<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We&#8217;ve played around with a few different email marketing tools ourselves here at Directive. What we&#8217;ve found is that &#8211; for the most part &#8211; each of these tools functions in much the same way. However, we did see that each mass email tool tends to have a different strength it prioritizes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, tools like BuzzStream are great for active prospecting and even have a Google Chrome plugin to allow you to prospect contact info and save opportunities to your projects straight from the SERP.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12831\" src=\"https:\/\/directiveconsulting.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/image3-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"524\" srcset=\"https:\/\/directiveconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/image3-1.png 500w, https:\/\/directiveconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/image3-1-286x300.png 286w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, tools like Pitchbox show their strength in their automated email follow up functions. Here you can create three customized emails and even choose the lag time in between your initial email and your follow-ups.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are working with a more static list of prospects in your email outreach campaign, this can make scaling your campaign far more manageable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12832\" src=\"https:\/\/directiveconsulting.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/image4-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"383\" srcset=\"https:\/\/directiveconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/image4-1.png 550w, https:\/\/directiveconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/image4-1-300x209.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MailChimp throws a new monkey wrench (pun intended) into the mix. On top of prospecting and outreach follow up, the last factor of your email that you need to consider is the actual appearance of your email. How is the formatting? Is it a plain text or a fancy branded HTML email?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let me burst your bubble now &#8211; before it gets too big. Plain text emails outperform designed HTML emails every day of the week here at Directive.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There&#8217;s nothing more spammy and salesy than a completely branded email experience. And nothing more casual than a simple greeting via some plain text. Now, I&#8217;ve already mentioned how there are countless different channels and campaigns to choose from. The same goes for email marketing. Let&#8217;s take a look at some guides for the different types of email marketing campaigns.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3 Email Outreach Guides for Every B2B Marketer<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is a wide array of uses for email marketing.

So, to make things a little easier for B2B marketers, I&#8217;ve split the following examples into two sections. Below are three email outreach guides for every B2B search marketer to learn from and use as a template.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next section covers three email blast examples that we love here at Directive.
