The Content Process: From Post-Its to Promotion

Editor's Notes

  1. Post it time!
  2. You still have to do some review before you get to the post-its. Also buy doughnuts.
  3. This really sets the scene and reminds everyone why you’re there in the first place.
  4. We do personas first, so it might be a while between the time when the personas are written and we do the content brainstorming.
  5. This can give your audience a focus on content topics, especially as they relate to personas.
  6. 70% of your content is low effort, 20% is medium and 10% is high effort
  7. Sales, service, manufacturing, marketing, owners, accounting, as many departments as you can. You want a real cross-section of your company here.
  8. Now it’s really time for the post-it notes!
  9. (quickly, before momentum is lost)
  10. I enjoy this tool quite a lot to identify “don’t bother” and “we can do better”: https://ahrefs.com/content-explorer/
  11. Has a local news outlet already covered your topic? Find out here: https://ahrefs.com/content-explorer/
