Get clear about your buyer personas and ideal client profile.
Even with a limited budget, SMBs can use their blog and social media channels to answer the most common questions they get from customers.
Develop content offers that are valuable enough that you can inspire a highly-targeted visitor to trade their business card information for what's on the other side of your landing page.
If you know who someone is (their buyer persona) and where they are in their buyer's journey, use email marketing, social nurturing, and remarketing to share the next logical step proactively. For most SMBs that sell B2B, a webinar program should be at the top of your list.

In the digitally-transformed world that we now live in, building a brand that's top of mind for your target audience starts by consistently creating and publishing helpful, educational content.
