Content Marketing Strategies Are an Evolving Plan
It is important to work with your entire team when developing content marketing strategies. Each person within the company has great insight into what your audience needs and wants.
Content strategy is the management of all tangible media you own or create: written, visual, and downloadable. This is the part of your marketing plan that continually demonstrates who and what you know about your industry.
Content marketing is an ongoing process. A complex content strategy will allow you to create valuable content for the right audience. To plan for future content campaigns, this content must be optimized and measured.
The process can be broken down into six steps to make it easier to understand:
1. The Phase of Research
This stage is where we must get to know our target audience. It is possible to use all the information that we have about them. What is their location? What content are they most interested in?
We need to listen to our audience and conduct surveys. Also, we need to study the competitors to segment our audience and analyze each social platform in detail.
2. Next: The Phase of Planning
Next, you will need to search for the right content formats and select the channels that are most relevant to your audience.
Take time to determine what information you want, your unique strengths, and any other information that you wish to communicate to your target audience. To measure your performance, you will need to choose your KPIs (Key Performance Indicators.)
These are measurable values that demonstrate how effectively a business is achieving key company objectives.
Next, content creation!
Though I am in local lead generation I have started implementing content blogs on the websites. I am now looking at wrting 1000+-word articles instead of the 500-word articles I have been doing so far. Hopefully this helps a bit on my journey.
Will be back to go over this again 👍
