Browser and operating system restrictions, consumer actions, privacy regulations, and walled gardens are limiting advertisers\u2019 ability to collect and process data.<\/p>\n<p>Play the long game with always-on advertising. Make sure you reserve a portion of your paid media budget for ads that are always on and working to seed future demand. <\/p>\n<p>Invest in creative excellence. B2B advertising can be a bit boring, so spice up your advertising creative with concepts that engage your audience, reinforce your brand promise, and highlight your differentiating value, instead of just promoting the latest white paper or event registration. <\/p>\n<p>Work well with walled gardens. Many B2B publishers are turning the business internet into \u2018walled gardens\u2019 by requiring subscriptions from their visitors to read content and limiting advertiser access to their subscribers\u2019 data. Plan for more direct media buys, and use platforms with direct publisher relationships to keep your advertising running within the walls. <\/p>\n<p>Support niche and local publishers. Small publishers that attract B2B buyers are a great place to focus some of your paid media spending because you can extend your audience reach and give your brand a dose of goodwill when readers realize your company is supporting their favorite niche content. <\/p>\n<h3>Took a photo that you are proud of?<\/h3>\n<p>Send it along and our team will select amongst those submitted to be featured in our next FGF.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align:center;\">The reason the equinoxes and solstices don\u2019t always come on the same day is that Earth doesn\u2019t circle the sun in exactly 365 days.<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Combine Earned and Paid Media for Success Investing in developing a brand\u2019s content by leveraging paid placements that align with earned media is a chance to both maximize brand value and increase bottom line results.
