It can be difficult enough to secure marketing budget – even when things are good. Given the year we’ve had and the imminent tightening of purse strings, things could get even harder for marketers. Thankfully though, there’s a glimmer of hope.

I recently went to a large well-known Swedish furniture shop to buy a sofa, and ended up leaving with a cheese grater and some light bulbs.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock on the dark side of the moon for the past few months, you’ll no doubt know that the brand new Star Wars film is due for release on December 17^th. Having dug the Stormtrooper costume out from the back of my wardrobe, excitement levels are at an all time high. I spent last weekend watching the existing 6 films, and that’s when I had a moment of realisation… Darth Vader and his Death Star were destroyed by the worst Achilles heel ever… a badly secured thermal exhaust port. If only he’d had the foresight to carry out a security audit of his entire operation and identify his weaknesses… Star Wars could have had a rather different ending altogether.

Today is Black Friday – a day which until recently was largely irrelevant, but which now consists of ridiculous shopping deals and chaos in stores up and down the country. The tradition was imported from across the pond in the last few years and represents the beginning of the Christmas shopping season. With stores typically opening earlier than normal and offering special offers on multiple products, mayhem generally ensues. You may already have seen Black Friday marketing materials land in your email inbox as companies look to outdo their competitors and secure the largest amount of revenue on the day.

The HAC in London was the beautiful (and very sparkly) venue for last night’s annual B2B Marketing awards ceremony. With over 800 marketing professionals attending last year (where we won two awards), this year’s event was bigger and better than ever! Of course, the evening took a spectacular turn when it was announced that Really B2B won Best SME Targeted Campaign – for a second year in a row!

A recent post by B2B Marketing, has highlighted some staggering findings uncovered by a MedExpress report. According to the research, 75% of respondents regularly missed doctor’s appointments and failed to pick up prescriptions due to work commitments. More worryingly, workers in the marketing and media sector made up the largest percentage of this group.

Considering whether or not to outsource your marketing is a big decision, and choosing a B2B marketing agency that will be the right fit for your company is an even bigger one. It’s a bit like choosing dinner at a restaurant with an extensive menu. If you only look at the title of each dish and don’t read the description, there’s a possibility you’ll end up with something you don’t really like. If you read each description carefully, you stand a much better chance of selecting a dish you’ll really enjoy.

It’s the same when looking for a B2B marketing agency to partner with. If you simply select an agency based on their name, or the first page of their website, you may end up with one that doesn’t fit with your company.
