It’s become a serious contender for online/digital advertising dollars from all types of businesses, both B2C and B2B. If you think your business isn’t right for TikTok, you may want to think again. If you’re like most businesspeople, TikTok is not what you think.
B2C companies supported by ad models are a little different. In Facebook’s case the paying customer are advertisers so CAC is the cost to acquire a new advertiser. This is true for a lot of B2C companies that have very short decision funnels for users: Snapchat, Instagram, and others.
But I think your buyers, whether they’re B2B or B2C, are much more sophisticated. And if you’re an advertiser who thinks that social is just for broadcasting promotional messages, you’re not going to get far.

While both B2B and B2C businesses can use Twitter to boost their online presence, the key to doing well is to engage with other users within your niche.
I'll walk through some examples: Most B2C companies driven by an ads model — companies like Facebook, WhatsApp, and Yelp — live on the left hand end of the spectrum. Low ARPU (advertising) therefore low CAC channels. On far left you have businesses that have low ARPU and as a result have to use low CAC channels to drive customers.
Specifically, both B2C and B2B companies who view branding and advertising as a top two growth strategy are twice as likely to see revenue growth of 5% or more than those that don’t (67% to 33%).

It’s advertising, more precisely the cost of commanding consumer attention, which by my calculation has seen a staggering seven- to nine-fold increase in real terms since 1990. My research suggests that there is no universally applicable approach — what matters most is tailoring advertisements to the appropriate context.
advertisers will spend approximately “$17.46 But with most B2B and B2C organizations using virtually the same branding tools, they’re arguably seeing less advantage as a result of their efforts — if they’re realizing any advantage at all.

But instead of adopting multiple martial art styles, more B2C companies are using mixed business models, or MBM, to win. Many were perplexed in late 2007, when Google announced they would build a mobile operating system, seemingly far afield of their core online advertising model. Mobile advertising revenue is already $2.5
For a B2C example, look at Home Depot, whose executives know that customers are eager to do as much of their own home-repair work as possible. Home Depot is helping customers become better do-it-yourselfers, and in the process it is strengthening its brand far more effectively than would have been possible through advertising.
The Content Marketing Institute reports that although the majority of B2B and B2C marketers have some kind of content marketing program, less than 40% find those efforts effective. After decades of creating advertising, many marketers have built up strong skill sets in some content-related areas. Clearly, things need to improve.
As American, Delta, and United changed their fare structures and slashed prices month after month to undercut each other, Southwest took out advertisements saying, “We’d like to match their new fares…but we would have to raise ours.” To the extent they advertise at all, they focus almost exclusively on price.
In the B2C world, it is about sales and customer loyalty: not just getting your customer to click and buy, but getting them so worked up about your product that they’ll never so much as think about buying from your competitor instead.

Respondents were more likely to hear about legacy brands through advertising and traditional media, compared to digital brands which are more often discovered via social media and direct word of mouth. The role and investments in advertising must also change to shift toward a usage model. Tesla vs. BMW.
At the risk of oversimplifying, paid media is advertising and sponsorships, while earned media is public relations and word-of-mouth. Loyalty and reward programs provide this type of context for B2C companies, while strategic account and relationship management programs do the same for B2B companies.
And let’s not forget that the vehicles are also rolling advertisements. So if you’re in a B2B business – and perhaps even if it’s B2C – spend some time thinking about an idea that keeps coming up in competitive simulation exercises. Is that a sufficient reason to invest in one? Probably not for your company.
B2C sales and customer acquisition efforts are a different matter (and one I''ll perhaps address in a future blog), but for B2B, those three models are the most common pattern. 80-90% software products vs. 40-50% advertising products) and company maturity (e.g., I''ll discuss each one below. 1) Enterprise Sales.
