What we do

Carbon helps B2B technology and software companies explain their value and reach the people behind the purchase. Our work connects audience research, positioning, creative, websites and media, including global campaign work for HubSpot.

Your features have benefits. So what?

Tell them what
gets better.

A technical buyer wants to know how it works. A business leader wants to know what changes because of it. Both need a story they can take back to the rest of the team.

We help you find that story. Then we make sure it comes through in your creative, media and digital experience.

Moving upmarket, launching a product or bringing a portfolio together? The business challenge sets the direction. The technology is part of the story. People are the point.

Serious business.
A little pirate energy.

Helping an inbound pioneer
make an outbound impression.

HubSpot wanted to reach more business decision-makers and grow its presence with enterprise audiences. Carbon built a global media strategy using brand data, audience insight and custom research.

The work supported HubSpot’s first global brand campaign across social, streaming, television, out-of-home and other channels. A human story, delivered at a global scale.

Good questions. Clear answers.

You might be wondering.

Here’s how we think about the work.

Do you work with B2B SaaS companies?

Yes. Our HubSpot work is one example. It included audience insight, global media strategy and campaign activation for a B2B software business. We shape each engagement around the company’s product, buyers and goals.

Can you help us move upmarket?

Yes. Our HubSpot engagement addressed a shift toward enterprise audiences. We’d start by understanding your target buying team, how they see your brand today and what evidence would give them confidence in your offer.

How do brand and demand generation work together?

Brand helps people understand and remember you. Demand generation creates and captures relevant interest. When the story, creative, media and website work together, each gives the other more to work with.

Would we work with one team?

Yes. We bring the right brand, media and technology specialists together around your assignment. You work directly with experienced practitioners, and we agree on responsibilities alongside your internal team.
