Allen Gannett, Founder and CEO of TrackMaven – an integrated marketing analytics platform, was recently interviewed by Jeff Pedowitz. He had some interesting things to say about aggressive lead scoring, organizing sales and marketing, and process. He also shared how their whole idea of bringing together all types of disparate analytic needs that customers have, social analytics, content marketing analytics, news monitoring, web analytics, and giving it to them in one place has differentiated them from their competitors. But, given that his company’s product is marketing analytics, it was fascinating to me listen to him talk about the importance of establishing relevance with content in the different parts of the funnel. He shared that the top of the funnel (ToFu) content is more broad-based and designed to create unique visitors, generate page rank etc. The content for the mid-funnel is more conversion oriented and as such it has to increase in relevance to the customer. So in the mid-funnel he advocates more industry aligned white papers, industry aligned webinars, and items aligned to the individual customer experience. Allen shared that “the big lever that we use in our sales and marketing is relevance. And whenever we are marketing to someone, the more relevant we can get throughout that process, the better the experience is going to be for them, and the more value we are going to deliver. So we basically apply that to our funnel.” So while the content at the top of the funnel may be broad, in the mid-funnel and bottom of the funnel Allen’s team start focusing on how that channel and content might apply to a specific industry. “And so now, someone coming to that [channel], is further along, we are creating more relevant content and having a deeper experience. So we use relevance as a primary lever to bring people through the funnel.” Listen to experience Allen’s perspective on how marketing has shifted from an artistic approach to a scientific approach and what that means for marketers and how he is addressing TrackMaven’s biggest challenge, hiring and retaining great people.

Allen Gannett, the Founder of TrackMaven and author of ‘The Creative Curve,’ joins the Social Pros Podcast to talk about how creativity is a learnable skill, the resurrection of organic social, and how to dominate LinkedIn video. Huge thanks to our amazing sponsors for helping us make this happen. Please support them; we couldn't do it without their help! This week: Salesforce Marketing Cloud My Emma Full Episode Details Success on social media has a lot to do with timing. Creativity is one thing, but you also need to consider the rate at which people consume content in each social platform as it correlates with the rate of change of that platform. Founder of TrackMaven, Allen Gannett, articulates it perfectly when he said that to be successful on any social media channel, you must be a citizen of that channel. What you post on Instagram isn’t going to work on Twitter. It doesn’t work like that anymore. You need to understand the subculture of the social channels that you frequent and pay attention to the timing of your schedule cycle. As the pendulum swings back to organic social, brands have a unique opportunity to get ahead of the curve and make organic social work for them. But, you’ve got to be very channel-specific and not afraid to color outside the lines. Allen believes that creativity is a learnable skill, which means if you’re willing to put the work in, you could be well on your way to becoming a mighty social pro. In This Episode: 03:52 – What TrackMaven’s data reveals about paid social vs. organic social 09:19 – Why you need to consider the pace of change in social media and how it relates to what you post, and when you post it 11:33 – Why you need to be a citizen of whatever social platform you’re using 16:46 – The importance of being authentically human on social 17:48 – Why creativity should be seen as a learnable skill 27:19 – How Allen uses episodic video content on LinkedIn 29:56 – A look inside Allen’s content publishing schedule and best practices for pleasing LinkedIn’s algorithm Resources: Get the new State of Marketing report for free from Salesforce Find out more about the community at SocialMedia.org with a special form for Social Pros listeners Read Salesforce’s FREE e-book, 50 Social Media Best Practices Learn more about TrackMaven and how it can help you analyze marketing performance across every channel Read Allen Gannett’s book, The Creative Curve Visit SocialPros.com for more insights from your favorite social media marketers.

Épisode 251 : Au cours des dernières années, Instagram a gravi les échelons pour devenir l’une des plateformes les plus populaires (si ce n'est la plus populaire) des spécialistes du marketing B2C. Depuis maintenant 2 ans, Instagram renforce son offre à destination des entreprises (Instagram shopping, outils d’influence marketing), mais qu’en est-il pour les entreprises B2B. Est-ce qu’Instagram c’est que pour le B2C ? Les recherches de TrackMaven (une plate-forme d’analyse statistique) semble prouver le contraire. Une étude qui porte sur 508 060 publications et plus de 100 millions d'interactions. Ils ont analysé 316 marques leaders du B2B sur Linkedin, twitter, Instagram et Facebook. Résultat des course, les entreprises B2B enregistrent leurs taux d'engagement les plus élevés sur Instagram. Une audience social media ce n’est pas que des clients Ce serait oublier qu’une audience social média n’est pas forcément constituée exclusivement de clients. On parle de tout un eco systeme. —— Quelles opportunités pour une marque B2B ? Construire une marque employeur forte Pour cela, l’une des possibilités est de communiquer sur les médias sociaux B2C, où se trouvent déjà les individus qui pourront rejoindre l’entreprise comme collaborateurs. Pas simple de recruter. Les tentions sont fortes et il se dit que c’est davantage les candidats qui recrutent leur boite que l’inverse. D’ailleurs, une récente étude de PwC a révélé que 73% des chefs d’entreprises étaient préoccupés par la pénurie des talents. Exemple : @pwcfrance 3227 abonnés sur Instagram Sur leur compte Instagram on trouve du contenu orienté autour des valeurs de la boite, du cadre de travail et surtout de l’Humain. —— Federer les equipes Plusieurs marques utilisent le réseau pour mettre en avant les réussites de leurs équipes. Exemple : @intel 1,2 millions d’abonnés. Instagram permet de mettre en avant les performances ou l’exemplarité de certains membres. Cela permet de renforcer le sentiment d’appartenance global à l’entreprise. En gros, c’est de la communication interne. Instagram est un formidable outil pour renforcer sa culture d’entreprise ! —— Toucher les clients de ses clients Si il est parfois difficile pour les marques B2B de s’adresser directement à leurs clients sur les médias sociaux, elles peuvent néanmoins communiquer avec les clients de leurs clients. C’est ce qu’on appelle une stratégie de communication B2B2C. L’objectif étant d’expliquer aux utilisateurs finaux, l’intervention et la plus value de la marque dans la chaîne de valeur. De créer de la préférence de marque. Exemple : @airbus https://www.instagram.com/airbus/ 1,7 millions d’abonnés. Autre exemple : @ValrhonaFrance https://www.instagram.com/valrhonafrance 190k abonnés Cela permet de construire de manière indirecte une marque B2B forte. Soutenue et identifiée par le grand public. —— Même en B2B, il arrive aussi que vos clients soient actifs sur Instagram C’est notamment le cas pour les entreprises de services dans la tech. Un bon exemple c’est @salesforce 85,5k followers Ils utilisent Instagram comme un outil pour nourrir leurs clients B2B (interviews d’experts sur l’IA par exemple) et renforcer leur expertise. —— Tisser un lien particulier avec ses partenaires On le disait une audience social media ce n’est pas que vos clients. Et dans l’éco système il ya évidemment les partenaires, vos fournisseurs. Instagram peut être un formidable moyen de créer unien fort avec eux. En divulguant les coulisses par exemple… Mais aussi en mettant en avant des applications concrètes de vos solutions. Un bon exemple avec @brakefrance 954 abonnés —— Toucher ses prospects dans leur vie de tous les jours avec le publicitaire sur Instagram Un pro reste un pro. Et même quand il se balade sur Instagram à 21h, il reste un pro. . . . Le Super Daily est le podcast quotidien sur les réseaux sociaux. Il est fabriqué avec une pluie d'amour par les équipes de Supernatifs. Nous sommes une agence social media basée à Lyon.

Besides being trailblazers in their respective fields, there is a common thread tying them all together. One that can be summed up in 2 simple words: Creative Genius. Nobody is going to argue that what The Beatles did in their short career was anything short of groundbreaking and genius. Nobody can look at the success of the Harry Potter franchise and arrive at any other conclusion than that JK Rowling is filled with creative genius. But what if you're not JK Rowling? Or John Lennon? Do you stand any chance at being a creative genius? At being an icon in your respective field? According to my friend Allen Gannett, the CEO of TrackMaven, and one of the keynote speakers at the very first #FlipMyFunnel conference, anybody can be a genius. Allen has written a book called The Creative Curve, in which he explores the myth that we are born creative, and how you too can be a creative genius. All it takes is a lot of hard work, a little luck, and what Allen calls “The 4 Laws of the Creative Curve.”
CEO and Founder of Track Maven, Allen Gannett believes that we have been spoon-fed the notion that creativity is the province of genius — of those favored, brilliant few whose moments of insight arrive in unpredictable flashes of divine inspiration. And if we are not a genius, we might as well pack it in and give up. Either we have that gift, or we don’t. But that simply isn’t true. In THE CREATIVE CURVE: How to Develop the Right Idea, at the Right Time by big data entrepreneur Allen Gannett, a Forbes and Inc. “30 Under 30” awardee, tells us why and shows us how to get it. http://www.allen.xyz

Allen Gannett. Forbes 30 Under 30, tech entrepreneur, founder of TrackMaven (now part of Skyword). And author of The Creative Curve. Is creativity something we’re simply born with or can all of us cultivate it – and if so, how?

Allen Gannett overturns the myths of creative genius and shows that it's not the province of genius - of those select brilliant few whose moments of insight arrive in unpredictable flashes of inspiration. Allan explains the science to achieving success in any creative field - from writing a novel to starting a successful company. Based on his book, The Creative Curve, you'll forget everything you think you know about creative genius and find that everyone can better engineer success. When people ask Allen what he does, how does he like to reply? What are the most significant misunderstandings about creativity? The flash of genius, the "ah-ha" moment is not a stroke of inspiration. What is the biology behind it? Consumption, the leading creatives seem to learn a lot about a little. It's not just about what they learn, it's also about how they consume. The operations of a laboratory and our left and right brain How valuable is the company we keep? Build a team with people from both fringe and the establishment. Describe fringe? Is it good to have conflicting collaborators? Is there an essential role for the non-conformist? Does spending time by yourself foster your imagination? The challenge of identity for Allen of - being an analytical guy who writes a book on creativity Is there any association between IQ and creative ability? Working to commissions - the rituals and routines of a creative person Is timing an important part of the creative process? Do great creatives see the world through a different lens? Since writing the book, what has Allen implemented at TrackMaven to foster a more creative environment? What did Allen take from his research and apply to his world? How do we balance the familiar with the novel?

One of the great things about marketing is that it requires you to be both analytical yet creative, and perhaps there are fewer people who know as much about both sides of this coin as Allen Gannett, CSO at Skyword. Allen is Founder and former CEO of TrackMaven, a SaaS marketing analytics platform, and author of The Creative Curve, a book that breaks down the four laws of creativity. In this episode we bring these worlds together as we explore the science behind creativity to understand how we as marketers can create things that are both novel and valuable. With real life examples from J.K. Rowling and Kanye West to Ben & Jerry's and Pixar, Allen challenges stereotypes around creativity and explains the science behind achieving creative success in any field, including B2B growth marketing. This episode covers: - What creativity actually is and how we can learn to become creative - An introduction and breakdown of The Creative Curve, a step-by-step framework that explains the four laws of creativity: Consumption, Imitation, Creative Communities, and Iterations - How we as marketers can become more creative - Creative marketing initiatives Allen and the TrackMaven team have run in the past --- Links Skyword >> https://www.skyword.com/ TrackMaven >> https://trackmaven.com/ The Creative Curve >> https://www.thecreativecurve.com/ Creativity Inc. >> https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18077903-creativity-inc Content Marketing Institute Blog >> https://contentmarketinginstitute.com/blog/ Ann Handley's Blog & Newsletter >> https://annhandley.com/ Follow Allen on Twitter >> https://twitter.com/Allen --- Advance B2B >> www.advanceb2b.com Follow The Growth Hub on Twitter >> https://twitter.com/SaaSGrowthHub Follow Edward on Twitter >> https://twitter.com/NordicEdward
On this bonus "library" episode, you'll hear what Allen Gannett -- founder and CEO of Track Maven which was acquired in 2018 and the author of the critically acclaimed book the Creative Curve -- is reading, writing and thinking about creating next.
How did you market your book? According to Allen Gannett, he basically didn't. Allen realized that today most people don't *really* respond to marketing. Sure, it's helped people recognize him, trust him and see him as credible. But when it came to actually selling copies of his book... well, as he admits in our conversation, that was all about creating one-on-one relationships with the thousands of people who'd eventually go on to buy his book. Many of us wrongly believe that posting on social media or doing advertising will get people to act. However, research has proven time and time again that while these sorts of actions can make us more likely to purchase or engage, there isn't anything quite like the human touch to drive action. And as Allen shares throughout this unique and engaging episode recorded the week of his book launch, a marketing maven who runs one of the largest social media analytics companies, recognized that our ability to connect with humans is rarely one to many... but one on one. Allen is the founder and CEO of Track Maven which was acquired in 2018 and the author of the critically acclaimed book the Creative Curve. Plus he's a friend I'm proud to have had many rounds of breakfasts with in the startup ecosystem.

And if we are not a genius, we might as well pack it in and give up. Either we have that gift, or we don't. But that simply isn't true.

Allen Gannet is the founder and CEO of Trackmaven, a company that works with large brands to help them uncover the meaning, revealed by patterns, in their marketing data. In working with major brands like Microsoft, Marriott, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Home Depot, Gannett noticed a significant pattern: most marketers, event well-known ones, weren’t hitting their goals. While their ad campaigns demonstrated creative thinking, their commercial success often fell short. He asked himself, could there be a method to combining creative and commercial success?

Are you creative? Most of us business people do not think of ourselves (or our professions) as creative. When we think of creative people, we think of artists and musicians and actors and writers. This is just one of the mistakes we make about creativity. Allen Gannett, founder and CEO of TrackMaven and author of "The Creative Curve: How to Develop the Right Idea, at the Right Time," explains that anyone can be creative because creativity can be learned. He did the research and provides a way of thinking that will help any of us believe we can be more creative. In just one example, Gannett explains that being creative is not just about the technical skill of whatever it is that we do. That skill could be painting or software sales. The technical skill of painting or selling is only one part of being creative. As Gannett explains, a creative person is good at three skills: the technical skill of the act, timing, and communicating and distributing your ideas. In other words, if you invented a new painting style or a new sales technique, it means nothing if your timing is off or if you cannot get that new idea out into the world. If you want to be a more creative painter or sales person or customer success manager, I suggest you listen to this podcast and then go read "The Creative Curve."
