Your AI content is killing deals. Here’s how to fix it.
If your AI content reads well but breaks trust, you’re sabotaging deals before they even start. Here’s the 9-part process we use at Edify to write high-performance content with AI, without losing credibility.
We got executive leads for $65. The industry average is $300.
We helped one client land C-suite leads for just $65—less than a quarter of the industry average.
Another hit half a million impressions with eight posts about software licensing. Here’s how we did it.
The anatomy of a white paper that actually WORKS
If your white paper reads like a sales pitch in disguise, you’re not building trust…you’re burning it. This post shows how to write white papers that actually help technical buyers think, learn, and move forward.
Your SEs are doing too much. Let CONTENT carry the load.
If your SEs are stuck on every sales call, repeating the same explanations over and over, you don’t need more headcount—you need content that scales their expertise.
Your AI Content Is Quietly Killing Deals (Here’s How to Fix It)
AI can help you move faster—but if you don’t know how to guide it, you’re shipping content that actively kills deals. Here’s how technical buyers spot AI garbage instantly and what it takes to write content they’ll actually trust.
Your homepage looks sharp…but no one’s buying.
Your homepage might look polished, but if it’s not converting, it’s just a digital brochure. A second, focused brand experience—built for clarity and conversion—can generate pipeline while your main site catches up.
Stop waiting for warm leads. Start earning them.
If your sales team is still “waiting for warm leads,” you’re probably losing deals before they ever hit the pipeline. This post breaks down how the best reps use content to earn attention, build trust, and warm leads before the pitch.
Most teams scare off leads–here’s how not to.
Everyone obsesses over lead attraction, but retention is where most companies completely fail. It's easy to get someone's attention and then immediately smother it with "just following up" and "circling back" emails that provide zero value. Great content acts like a magnet when you need attention and a bridge when you need progress.
Buyers don’t want a pitch. They want a guide.
Most teams treat leads like guaranteed revenue…and that’s a massive mistake. This post breaks down what a lead really is and why content—not calls—is what turns interest into intent.
You're SPAMMING your leads. That's why they never respond.
Most cold emails fail because they're too long, painfully generic, reek of desperation, and show up with zero context begging for calendar time. Smart outbound isn't about spraying the same pitch to 1,000 people—it's about relevance, value, and making your CTA the easiest "yes" decision they've ever made.
Your ad budget is hemorrhaging money right now (here's why)
Your buyer clicked an ad and filled out a form to get a lead magnet—that doesn't mean they're ready to spend $50K on your solution. Research shows it takes seven or more meaningful touches to convert a lead, not just one ad and a cold call from an unprepared sales rep.
Your engineers hate sales calls (and it's costing you deals)
When your sales team keeps saying "we'll get our engineer on the next call," it's not a win—it's a failure of your content strategy. You're spending engineering time on deals that might not be qualified, slowing down your sales cycle, and burning out your technical talent on explanations that could have been handled by well-designed documentation.
Why 90% of sales emails fail (and how to fix yours)
Technical buyers actively avoid talking to sales, with Gartner reporting that 75% of B2B buyers prefer a rep-free experience. Email is one of the only channels that lets you deliver information directly without interrupting their day, but most sequences fail because they start with self-serving pitches rather than buyer-relevant value.
If it's not in the CRM, your content doesn't exist
If your sales team shares content but doesn't log it in the CRM, you have no way to measure impact or prove what's working. Website analytics are mostly noise from tire-kickers, but CRM data shows which content actually moves deals forward in real sales conversations.
Why your content fails to convert (it's missing these critical pieces)
When marketing only creates top-of-funnel content, buyers get interested but can't move forward. They lack the case studies and technical docs to make decisions or address objections. Real buyers don't follow your neat funnel diagram—they need content that supports them wherever they land.
Your sales team doesn't need more leads (they need LEVERAGE)
Marketing teams are churning out content while sales teams feel like they're flying solo. This isn't about marketing incompetence—it's about misalignment where both teams work in parallel rather than in concert, creating wasted effort that looks productive but doesn't translate into actual revenue.
Your ICP is probably wrong (and it's costing you money)
Most companies define their ICP with something laughably vague like "C-level execs at enterprises." That's not an ICP—that's a horoscope. A real ICP has teeth: specific company types, current tech stack, budget realities, and disqualifying factors that save you from wasting time.
You built a persona—now what? Here’s what sales and marketing do next
Sales and marketing alignment doesn’t start with a campaign—it starts with a shared understanding of your buyer. This post walks through how to go from persona to ICP to target account list, and how to build content that actually supports revenue.
Why your content isn’t closing deals (and how to fix it)
Most B2B content stalls out at the top of the funnel because it’s not aligned to a real sales strategy. If you want content that actually drives deals forward, it needs to support every stage of the sales cycle—not just awareness.
How to build credibility with technical buyers
Selling to technical buyers isn’t about persuasion—it’s about proof. Edify helps B2B SaaS teams create technical content that builds trust, answers real questions, and moves deals forward without hiring more headcount.
