Content is Still King. So, Why Are You Not Doing It?

June 23, 2022 by James Schulman

Content is Still King. So, Why Are You Not Doing It?

We’ve said it many times before and we’ll say it again – content marketing is where it’s at. It’s withstood the test of time and has proven to be extremely effective. 

If you aren’t seeing results, chances are you may not be doing it right. Here’s some things you’ll want to consider when utilizing a successful content marketing strategy:

You Need Lots of Quality Content

Content marketing is all about getting your audience to like you, trust you, and relate to you – and all of this can be done through creating quality content such as blogs, emails, ebooks, presentations – you name it. And wait for it – utilizing storytelling to make it engaging.

Here are some general tips you can follow to help ensure that your content high-quality: 

Start with a clear strategy: Before you begin creating any content, it is important to have a clear understanding of your overall marketing strategy and goals. Once you’ve identified what you actually want to accomplish, you can develop a plan for creating content that will serve a purpose and provide valuable information for your readers. Which leads us to… 

Write for your audience: It is important to remember who your target audience is and what they are looking for when creating content. Write content that is interesting and relevant to your audience, and make sure to include calls to action that will encourage them to take the next step. 

You’ll Need to Know Your Target Audience

Creating great content is only half the battle. You also need to market it effectively if you want it to get readers to take a certain action after engaging with what you’ve created. Content marketing requires a deep understanding of your audience. What are their needs and wants? Are they strapped for time? Hungry for information? Do they prefer email or are they on social throughout the day? What are their habits and hobbies? What’s driving them to you in the first place? 

Try conducting surveys, focus groups, or interviews with those who may fit your target demographic. Take a moment to be a voyeur, if you will, and try and scope out any trends in online behavior from those who you believe to be your potential clients.

And perhaps most importantly, open your mind to being wrong about who your audience is. All too often, we’ve seen clients box their audience into a particular niche or demographic. The world is your oyster. Don’t be afraid to expand your horizons and realize that your audience may be a whole heck of a lot bigger than you thought. 

Good content marketing is hard work, and can get time-consuming – so if you’re ready to get a team of experts behind you –  give us a call anytime. We love this stuff.
