The B2B Marketing Paradox
What it is and what to do about it
Featured in
Had you heard of the b2b marketing paradox before?
This is where most marketing teams and salespeople get stuck—it’s the space between the risky unknown and the overdone and ineffective.
The Dilemma of Marketing and Sales
When it comes to marketing and sales, there is what might work to generate (and close) more and more qualified inbound leads. But you won’t know if these tactics will work until you try, which is not a good reason to do so.
And then there are proven tactics that are so pervasive, they offer diminishing returns.
It’s a paradox; if we do what is known to work, it probably won’t, at least not as well as it used to. But if we try something new, that might not work either.
And so we turn to the experts for a third way.
We read books, attend workshops, watch seminars, consume courses, and hire the occasional third-party help. We pay a lot for this advice in time and in money, and yet the vast majority is repetitive, repackaged “fluff.”
The latest buzzword frameworks rarely provide new principles or immediately actionable strategies. They tell us what to do but not how to execute. So we’re left hanging without the specifics needed to test, optimize, and scale.
As the global economy inflates into recession conditions, what is the best way to figure out what has the best chance of working?
Break the paradox—do what works that 97.5% of other marketers haven’t figured out does work.
Innovator-Tested Persuasion Experiments

About Best Way™ Persuasion creator Joshua Lisec
Hi, I’m Joshua Lisec.
In addition to ghostwriting business books that generate sales qualified leads in over 40 industries, I’ve helped dozens of clients add seven figures to their businesses each year by leveraging advanced persuasive writing techniques.
Persuasion Needs
Every business is unique, but every business is also similar in that they need to sell clients on their products and services. And people are people.
Persuasion Focus
I’ve found that when I help a client focus on a specific selling technique to the exclusion of all other noise, the magic can happen.
Persuasion Success
Because of my experience ghostwriting global bestsellers and working as a hypnotist (kooky, I know), I have been able to manufacture success again and again with different businesses in different niches.
The secret sauce:
Persuasion.
In theory, persuasion is easy. In practice, it’s hard. Why is it hard? Because there are too many tips, tactics, strategies, secrets, and everything else to know what to do.
Sometimes, sifting through all of it feels like sorting your kitchen “Where does this go?” drawer.
The reality is:
95%
of marketing and sales advice doesn’t work.
which 95% though
And as a business owner juggling everything, your most precious resource—time—should not be spent on figuring out what doesn’t work.
That’s why I write a monthly newsletter where I cover in detail step-by-step with no steps skipped one elite persuasion technique that works.
Crazy, right? But simple. I show you the technique, walk you through a client’s case study, and give examples from my own products and services so the lesson sticks. And each issue is written so you can scan it and hand it off to your team for implementation.

“Joshua Lisec not only has nuclear-level persuasion skills, but his talent stack makes him a business genius. It took him just 5 minutes on a live Best Way™ Persuasion call to make me reconsider my entire marketing strategy. The monthly live calls and the newsletter are great tools to level up your persuasion skills to nuclear levels like Joshua’s.”
Richard C. Kastl, Design Agency Owner
“Best Way™ Persuasion is not your typical ‘I didn’t even open it, I’m too busy’ newsletter. Each one is a must-read. I pause whatever my current activity is to indulge when the new issue arrives.
I was so used to fluff-filled, overpromising, expensive garbage. But every single Best Way™ newsletter from Joshua Lisec is real, actionable, only-your-best-friend-would-tell-you advice. You learn to think, you understand Joshua’s wisdom, and finally, you implement.
In Germany, we say ‘truffle pig’ to mean you’ve just found something amazing, like a good restaurant nobody knows about or an easy shortcut to a longstanding problem. I’ve found my truffle, and it’s Best Way™ Persuasion.”

How It All Works
If you’ve taken The Best Way to Say It™ and read So Good They Call You a Fake, you’ve learned how to think like Lisec. You’ve also added some measure of persuasive writing to your talent stack. And you’ve probably gotten results.
Now the question is: Do you want more?
Specifically, do you want more of Joshua Lisec telling you exactly what to do to implement advanced persuasion techniques throughout your business, from the top of the funnel and even before prospects enter it . . . all the way to the bottom and they buy? And buy again and again and again?
Do you want that?
Each Best Way™ Persuasion monthly case study is a demonstration of an advanced business persuasion strategy that works for real Lisec clients, so you will know what to do.
This is not about reading something and then trying to figure out what to do next. Best Way™ Persuasion is Joshua telling you what to do, showing you how, and sending you off to the races.
It’s not about “upskilling,” it’s about results.
Joshua Lisec’s previous courses and books have helped you build your persuasive writing talent.
And with Best Way™ Persuasion, he’s going to help you unleash it.
As soon as you subscribe to either pricing tier, you will receive instant access to the Best Way™ Persuasion: 97% Report.
In this special case study exclusively for new Best Way™ subscribers, Joshua Lisec shows you how he identifies the staggering 97% of customers who are the most unseen, unpitched, and unserved in his clients’ industries—and therefore the most profitable and easiest to reach. Then Joshua shows you non-obvious ways he reaches these hidden megabuyers in one industry after another—and how you can, too, starting this week.
It’s a bold claim, but it’s the Best Way™. Expect nothing less.
This is a masterclass for the guys and gals that, rather than looking for the new trick, secret, or gimmick, are after the next big and solid outcome.
It’s for those who understand that results are only possible with implementation but don’t have time to implement anything else.
