B2B Presentation | Content, Strategy & Design
At MWG/, a global content marketing startup, I led content and design teams with an aggressive growth plan for upselling and acquiring new clients with newer solutions. Linkedin and SlideShare were key platforms for our B2B clients. I conducted research and prepared reports for the clients, and produced frameworks to help assess effectiveness of a content based on various metrics. We applied the insights from my research to the pilot project which was a huge success.
Our SlideShare presentation repurposed from an annual trend report by the top-tier IT services firm became the company’s most widely-shared presentation on LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter. Our client’s previous trend study presentation received 11.3K views in 16 months. Our annual trend study presentation have generated 10.5k views in 6 months. In less than two months, the SlideShare presentation became the 3rd most-viewed presentation among our client’s 50+ presentations.
