"Showcasing Authenticity" in content is probably one of the hardest things most marketers will have to grapple with. A large proportion of marketing content focuses on the "sun-lit uplands" - the future with a successfully implemented solution. This is akin to the air-brushed consumer advertising images of flawless skin, perfect teeth and "ideal" body-shapes that are now going out of fashion in advertising as brands try to show that they relate to the real experiences of real people. Marketers don't want to highlight difficulties or obstacles in their content, but we all know they are there. This is why a lot of content feels unsatisfying - we're only being told what the marketer wants us to know, not everything we need to know. And there's the dilema: do you show yourself airbrushed or with slightly wonky teeth?

Messaging Strategy for B2B SaaS @ Lion Words | Anti-buzzword Strategist, Speaker & Founder | Helping you achieve message-market fit 💡 Host of The Marketing Meetup Barcelona
“Me me me syndrome” My name for a common messaging mistake I see, particularly in B2B. When companies are too focused on themselves, their product, their features, that they forget about the audience. They’re often so desperate to show why they’re the best, and why you should choose them… That they don’t tell their prospective customers anything valuable. And the worst part? Often they start sounding like a clone 🤖 (A little snippet from my talk at #BrightonSEO) #LionWords #LetYourMessageRoar #Messaging #MessagingStrategy #B2BMarketing #Differentiation
