Greetings Technology Content Marketers,
Welcome to B2B Technology Content Marketing: 2015 Benchmarks, Budgets, and Trends—North
America. Throughout this report, you’ll see how technology marketers have changed their content
marketing practices over the last year and how they compare with the overall sample of B2B
marketers who completed our annual content marketing survey.
Among all groups we studied this year, technology marketers are the most likely to use content
marketing. They’re also the group that is most focused on lead generation as the primary goal
for their content marketing efforts. Producing engaging content continues to be a challenge for
technology marketers; however, 73% are presently working on initiatives to improve in this area.
Overall, technology marketers are some of the savviest we’ve studied in terms of how they are
working to align their goals, metrics, and initiatives. Those who have a documented content
marketing strategy are getting the best results.
Thanks for looking to Content Marketing Institute as a resource. We look forward to serving you
for many years to come.
Yours in content,
Joe

USAGE & OVERALL EFFECTIVENESS
Does your organization
use content marketing?
93% say yes
Last year, 98% of technology marketers said they
use content marketing.
Back then, we defined content marketing as the
“creation and distribution of educational and/or
compelling content in multiple media formats to
attract and/or retain customers.”
This year, we defined content marketing as
“a strategic marketing approach focused on
creating and distributing valuable, relevant, and
consistent content to attract and retain a clearly
defined audience—and, ultimately, to drive
profitable customer action.”
The new definition—crafted by Content
Marketing Institute in early 2014—better reflects
how content marketing has grown from the mere
“creation and distribution” of content to a formal
business discipline.

USAGE & OVERALL EFFECTIVENESS
Overall, how effective is
your organization at
content marketing?
34% say they are effective
Note: For purposes of our annual survey,
we define effectiveness as “accomplishing
your overall objectives.” Those who rate their
organizations a 4 or 5 (on a scale of 1 to 5, with
5 being “Very Effective” and 1 being “Not at all
Effective”) are the “most effective” or “best-in-
class.” The 1s and 2s are considered the “least
effective,” while the 3s are neutral.
Last year, 39% of technology marketers said
they were effective at content marketing. Even
though there is a decrease this year, having a
documented content marketing strategy helps
in this regard (59% of technology marketers
who have one say they are effective).
