From Boring to Bold: Making B2B Content Humans Actually Want

In a world drowning in AI-generated, algorithm-optimized content, how do you actually get people to stop and pay attention? In this episode of Marketing In The Now, David Reske sits down with Matt Charney — content strategist, executive editor, and principal analyst with 15 years in content marketing and thought leadership — to explore why most B2B content fails and what bold, human-first storytelling looks like in practice. From empowering employees to tell their own stories, to using AI to uncover gaps in competitors' messaging rather than generate generic ideas, Matt shares a contrarian framework for creating content that makes your audience swear, share, or care — and why emotional resonance, not ROI bullet points, is what builds lasting B2B relationships.
