With the increasing involvement of Developers in decision-making for the selection of DevTools, B2D marketing or Developer Marketing is becoming increasingly more relevant. Although Developer Marketing is very different from traditional marketing on several levels.
👨🏻💻 Developer Mindset
One of the key differences is the developer mindset. Developers tend to be repelled by salesy content and instead focus on factors such as developer experience, documentation, tutorials and educational content, community support, learning curve, and relevance to their careers when evaluating a developer tool. As a result, a lot of developer marketing revolves around building trust in these factors.
