Hello. You’re a B2B SaaS marketer, right? Yeah, I thought I recognised you. What are you working on? What’s that? “Whatever the sales team needs to close the next deal?” It’s hard, right? The maniacal race to convert leads is an addiction for B2B tech companies. But such deal-driven focus means your marketing looks identical to that of your growing competitor set: complex, technical, boring, product-led sales messages spewed onto another whitepaper. It’s self-sabotage: ‘fail to differentiate, blend in, become invisible’. Sound familiar? Try being braver. Boring2Brave is a step-by-step guide to showing how B2B marketing done differently will increase your influence and ‘10X’ results. Stop being measured in metrics you’ve always known are meaningless and start building your company’s brand and value. Get off the treadmill. This book will equip you to inject audacity, invention and white-hot competitive advantage into your B2B marketing. Just by being brave. A former editor of Marketing Week Magazine, Mark Choueke’s 20-year career at the heart of global B2B marketing has seen him grow more than 50 B2B technology companies across the world.

Martin Griffin and Jon Mayhew's Storycraft: How to teach narrative writing is an inspiring and practical resource to support secondary school teachers in developing their students' creative writing. This book is not a style manual. Authors Martin Griffin and Jon Mayhew think there are plenty of those about. Instead, it picks apart the craft of narrative writing and equips teachers with activities designed to help their students overcome the difficulties they experience when tasked with creating something from nothing. Written by two fiction writers and English teachers with over forty years' combined experience in education, Storycraft packs in expert guidance relating to idea generation and the nature of story and provides off-the-peg writing prompts that teachers can immediately adopt and adapt in the classroom. The book breaks down the simple components that must be in place for a narrative to work the crafting of character, setting, shape and structure and shares fifty-one stimulating activities that will get students writing narratives regularly, more creatively and with greater confidence . Martin and Jon also include helpful advice in a chapter dedicated to the process of editing in which they provide activities designed to help students diagnose and improve misfiring narratives, and they close the book with invaluable tips for GCSE exam preparation written directly for students and with an impending creative writing exam in mind. Suitable for English teachers of students aged eleven to eighteen.
