2. Social Media Marketing Vs Content Marketing
Social Media Marketing – Brands model their content after the people and the platform they
are using. Example – Twitter 144 Characters.
Inbound Marketing (Content Marketing) -Brands can publish blog posts, videos, infographics,
and e-books, just to name a few formats. With this type of marketing, brands model their
behavior after that of media publishers.
Need a mixture of Inbound Marketing & Content Marketing. Forget mindless posting, it is all
about Engagement! In other words, Social Media is the broadcast platform and Content
Marketing is the broadcast channel for telling a compelling story!
