- What do we need do to more effectively to sell and market? It comes down to needing to create content. A curriculum of content. A content plan that matches the buyer’s journey. How do you take them through that journey and become a trusted advisor? And how do you get found along the way? What are some of the techniques you are using? As a marketing automation company that focuses a lot on outbound (i.e. email nurturing), we found it is also very important to have an inbound capability. The ability to help customers get found. How does that search engine compliment the paid advertising you are doing. And then, how do you optimize that across all channels and touch points? Social is very important and marketing through social channels is critical. Because people are going to find you that way, and learn about you through social media. They are also going to get reinforcements through that channel.
- [Leo to add speaker notes from the “5 Steps to creating Content That Converts to Revenue” blog]
- A recurring question we hear time and again from customers and prospects is that they have a difficult time creating enough content to feed the engagement cycle. But you would be surprised how much content you do have. To make sure you are getting the most from the content you do have, repurpose and utilize content across multiple channels in multiple formats.People consume content quite differently from one another. Some prefer a blog post or an RSS feed, while others may be more interested in attending a webinar to get the information. What is important to remember is that offering information in variety of formats allows you to get more reach with the content that you already have.This slide here is an example of that type of repurposing content. We started with a white paper called “Getting Started with Marketing Measurement.” From there, we did an email campaign, we then posted it on our website so it can be found through the search engines, we have blog posts written about this so people can consume it in shorter, smaller bits. It was then turned into a webinar with the same title as the white paper. Then we could do social media promotions around it as well through twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.This one white paper has become a rich source of useful content that can feed campaigns for weeks and possibly even months. It provides multiple touch points through multiple channels on one piece.
