What the heck is “Business-to-Business (B2B) Marketing,” and what do you mean you made a documentary about it?? Whether it’s the stadium seating, floodlights, clay, grass, or even ketchup at a professional baseball game, or the turbines on a wind farm—B2B industries are responsible for the complex and oftentimes unseen systems that propel our society. And for a society facing a litany of existential challenges including food insecurity, income inequality, and climate crisis—the success of B2B solutions is paramount to its survival. That success begins with good, creative marketing. Storytelling. In association with LinkedIn, EVERYBODY’S BUSINESS is Breakwater Studios' new documentary about the oft-effaced, but remarkably vital world of B2B marketing. The film profiles luminaries Tom Stein, Andisa Ntsubane CM (SA) FCXP (CX-I), Jennifer Johnson, AlmapBBDO and others on their quest to usher in a new era of creativity and impact in B2B marketing, starting with the recognition associated with a brand new category at the prestigious Cannes Lions Festival. Their assertion? The world depends on it. Coming soon.
