From talking to dozens and dozens of SaaS businesses, it’s clear that marketers at those companies know that investing in SEO can give them really nice long-term ROI. Specifically, if you can rank in the top three results for searches related to your product, you can get a reliable stream of traffic from very qualified prospects, […]

We’ve been running our content marketing agency, Grow and Convert, for over 5 years now. In that time, we’ve worked with dozens of SaaS clients and talked to countless more. From these conversations, we now have a good sense of what SaaS companies are looking for in content marketing agencies, what they’re disappointed by in […]

In our sales meetings with prospective clients, we frequently face one recurring objection from people that operate in extremely specialized or technical niches. They’re already bought into our whole approach to content marketing (ranking for bottom of the funnel pain point-related terms, getting the right customer-content fit, recognizing the value of mini-volume keywords, etc.), but […]

We’ve talked in many of our past articles about the core of our content marketing philosophy: Target bottom of the funnel keywords — the terms people who are actively shopping for your product are already Googling — because those lead to more demos, trials, and form submissions than your typical top of the funnel, “awareness” […]

Prior to starting Grow and Convert, the number one issue we noticed about B2B content marketing was that when you sat down to measure leads generated from content, the number of leads attributable to content was minimal to none.

Over the past five years running our agency, we’ve noticed several key flaws with the way most B2B businesses approach content marketing.

They write beginner level content for their advanced B2B audiences. […]

In the past 5 years running our agency, we’ve worked with dozens of SaaS businesses and produced hundreds of pieces of SaaS content for our clients. And through these experiences, we’ve become intimately familiar with: How to write SaaS content that actually drives business results (i.e. actual leads and product signups from readers). The mistakes in […]

This article was written by Matt Goolding, a content strategist with Grow and Convert since 2019. Over the past few years, we’ve published various posts that explain how we prioritize content topics and target keywords based on conversion intent, not search volume, including: Our guide to pain point SEO, which explains our approach to coming […]

There are many companies that wrongly assume that: If competitors with a huge marketing budget already rank for many keywords in their space, they have no shot in organic search. There are a few reasons why they have this defeatist view of SEO: They assume that bigger budgets mean better results They assume it’s nearly […]

In 2020, we wrote a detailed case study on how we grew a B2C blog to 70,000 pageviews in 14 months. In that post, we discussed the content strategy we used—along with data on the rankings, leads, and traffic results we achieved for them. In contrast to that article—which told the story of our content strategy […]
