Back in the day, Mailchimp led the way in B2B brands that used a creative brand strategy to drive growth and create brand advocates out of customers\u2014the good ol&#8217; days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is needed more than ever,&nbsp; and nothing stops you from giving more thought to your brand&#8217;s values, visual style, and identity. Allow the fun to creep in. This has a lot to do with the type of persona you market to, but remember, they are still humans. Forget your competitors &#8211; just because they are doing it a certain way doesn&#8217;t mean it is right.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And remember, B2B is <em>humans at a business marketing to other humans at a business<\/em>. We all crave meaningful connections, which creativity provides. I still have the custom Mailchimp playing cards they sent me 10 years ago. And I am apparently still talking about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But back to today, here are two shoutouts to B2B brands upping their game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Leave it to a seaweed-based B2B packaging solution to lead the way.
