In 2026, it feels like every marketing channel is swamped with AI-generated content. How can a B2B business create something that stands out from the noise and the competition?
Forge Apollo’s Emmy® award-winning corporate video production team in Philadelphia knows how to make content that makes an impact. In this guide, we’re breaking down our top tips for B2B content that drives results.
1. Get on Camera
Your brand’s biggest asset is its people. People connect with people.
One study by Yahoo Labs and the Georgia Institute of Technology found that Instagram posts with human faces in them were 38% more likely to get likes and 32% more likely to get comments.
When planning any B2B video marketing campaign, encourage your employees to get on camera. You’ll notice that every example we share in this blog features real people on camera.
Feeling camera-shy? No problem. Forge Apollo has completed hundreds of business video production shoots. Our producers come prepared with questions and direction to make you feel like a natural.
2. Highlight Your Culture
Basic selling points, like the features of your product or service, can sound stale and repetitive when a potential customer starts comparing brands. What really makes a B2B brand stand out is its culture and the experience customers have with it.
RJB Contracting is a commercial contractor. Rather than creating a video that shares what services they offer, we created this video through the lens of the company’s culture.
The viewer can understand the values and direction that shape the service they’ll receive, which makes it impactful.
3. Establish E-E-A-T
E-E-A-T is an SEO philosophy that stands for Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness. Aspects such as first-hand experience, subject-matter knowledge, reputation, transparency, and accuracy signal to search engines that your content will be reliable and helpful.
When we apply this to corporate video marketing, we can send all those reliability signals to viewers to establish trust. When you work with a skilled video production company, you can achieve this naturally in your content.
For example, in this video that Forge Apollo produced for Delaware Valley Paving, we establish these signals through:
- B-roll of the company working for a well-known client (Home Depot)
- Storytelling of the decades of first-hand experience
- Featuring key employees on camera
4. Share Customer Stories, Not Selling Points
When brands start listing out their selling points, consumers tune them out. Instead, work them into a story. This is especially effective when you can tell a specific customer’s story.
ASD is a funeral-exclusive answering service that offers a number of innovative services for funeral directors. In this video, we interviewed two employees from one of their notable clients. As each client shares their story, they mention the ways that specific ASD services helped them.
Combining feature descriptions with emotionally resonant stories helps them connect better with the viewer.
5. Showcase Where You Work
Another aspect you’ll notice in all our video examples is that they mix in b-roll of real scenery related to the company’s offerings, such as its office location or a job site. Your real-life work is something that AI can’t replicate, and it provides authenticity.
This video we created for PA Steel uses a mixture of warehouse and office shots to achieve this.
