Why thought leadership

Great thought leadership opens doors, makes your brand relevant, and influences buying decisions.

That’s because unlike standard marketing content, thought leadership communicates your brand’s vision based on your unique expertise or research, with practical relevance to your customers’ business goals and challenges.

Eighty percent (80%) of B2B decision-makers say that compelling thought leadership influences their purchase decisions. The same percentage will give their permission to be marketed and sold to when provided with thought leadership they value.*

Effective thought leadership demands a specialized set of skills that most brands don’t have in-house. It also requires long-term commitment.

That’s where Jove comes in.

  • Connects your brand’s unique intellectual property with customer needs and your business goals

  • Establishes your brand’s unique point of view, including your in-house expertise and thought leaders

  • Identifies the most promising formats (text, graphic, audio, video) and channels (paid, earned, owned) for reaching your audience

When we can add value, we also help our strategy clients implement our recommendation by:

  • Developing all program elements, including content

  • Helping to reflect thought leadership viewpoints across the organization and with partners
