The forgotten B’s in B2B - Brand fame
On the contrary to the general belief, we think that there has never been a better time to inject imagination and creativity into your B2B brand building storytelling and seek fame.
Standing out and being recognised is a challenge for many B2B tech brands. Without a strong identity and tone of voice, all your marketing and brand storytelling efforts and thought leadership credentials could be in vain. Or worse still, it could be wrongly attributed to your competition. We create a strong visual platform for your brand, define how it should be presented in a unique and appealing fashion and consistently apply it across all marketing collateral. Assets vary wildly and while the possibilities are endless and the canvas always changes, your brand visual presence shouldn’t.
Consider branding to be your Sunday best suit that you ‘wear’ over every piece of marketing communication you put out there. It’s unique to you and appealing and recognisable to everyone else. To achieve that we can help you refresh, or create from scratch, a contemporary identity driven by your brand positioning and values - your logo, brand assets, fonts, colours, tone of voice, imagery, and everything else. Additionally, we produce clear and easy to follow brand guidelines on how to use and apply your new brand in a consistent fashion, no matter what the platform or medium.

“We wanted a brand building campaign that would put us on the map, give the brand a warm personality, and get people talking about us. This campaign has achieved this and more. We have had an increase in conversations from events, people are asking us more educated questions, they are warmer leads! We have already doubled our overall traffic and tripled our returning visitors to the site.”
Sinead Geraghty
Marketing Director, Origina
“We’ve been working with Squaredot for a number of years and we work very much as a partnership. They understand our business, B2B marketing and the inbound methodology. Squaredot worked hand in hand with us to create and deliver this end to end campaign, including the digital hub, eBooks, research and related content that delivered exceptional results for our business”
Aisling White
Head of Marketing, Travelport Digital
“Squaredot helped raise our profile in the market. With a limited total addressable market we had to make a splash with our content to help us establish the reputation of an industry thought-leader. We always felt in safe hands dealing with Squaredot and the results speak for themselves - we’ve even created an audience in New York that we’ve never had before, and that’s big.”
Darren Ryan
CEO, Deanta Global
''We compete against some of the biggest tech companies in the world. So we need to be smart and efficient with our marketing budget. Squaredot have helped us with our SEO strategy, producing content clusters and pillar pages and optimising our website - all of which helps us rank higher on Google search results.”

We could wax lyrical about our understanding of the nuances of the industry and the competitive landscape. Or tell you how we cover every base from discovery sessions to winning accounts. Or we could point out the case studies success stories, the awards we’ve won, and the relationships we’ve built with our clients over the years supported by testimonials. It all points in the same direction - we help B2B tech brands get famous.
On the contrary to the general belief, we think that there has never been a better time to inject imagination and creativity into your B2B brand building storytelling and seek fame.

It feels petty discussing economics at a time when Covid 19 is indiscriminately rampaging through society. But we’re just a marketing agency, not front line heroes or scientists, so we’ll stick to what we know.
One day, it was business as usual, the next day, an existential threat started banging at our doorstep. For many B2B tech companies, you may have no reason to pivot your offering. But you will need to be sensitive in your messaging.
