Our mission: To provide marketers with free content while we avoid getting boring 9-to-5 jobs.
Your impact: Your support funds our vegan snacks and kombucha tap.
The honest truth: Without your donation, we might have to face the prospect of putting up a paywall like every other content site on earth.
Donate now because Mark Zuckerberg isn’t returning our calls about investing in our business model and we’ve already maxed out our crappy bank’s credit limit.
But hey, don’t just donate 10 bucks! That barely covers the tiger nut milk demanded by our cat.

When it comes to finding the best words for social media, it varies from B2B to B2C businesses since the audiences are different.
In B2C, the writing may be more personal because consumers are generally more emotional than businesses. Therefore, you might try to use words that target the emotions of your users. Emotional words could help you in the process of persuading your most valuable customer segments to buy your brand.
In the B2B world, an impulse purchase is much less likely to happen.
B2B sale cycles are much longer because there are different moving parts, such as legal compliance, technical requirements, etc. Consequently, you might have to move a prospective customer down the sales funnel gradually.
Because businesses are much less likely to purchase based on emotions, the words you use on social media may be more professional, technical and to the point.
