Content Marketing is a strategy of producing and distributing content in relevant promotional channels to attract an audience. It is the most effective method for building a relationship of trust, which aims to strengthen the brand.
Essentially, it is a method of indirectly promoting a company’s products or services. By providing useful tips or information you show your audience that you know your subject very well. Thus, at the time of purchase, it is very likely that the customer will choose your brand.
Content Marketing is a long-term and repeatable strategic process, which requires consistency.
Tip: Creating a Content Calendar will help you stay organized and on schedule.
The content can vary in format and subject matter, depending on the company’s field of activity (articles, presentations, surveys, videos, infographics, audio, etc.). Also, it should be relevant to its products and services.
Awareness is the most common marketing objective in companies, especially start-ups. Their purpose is to increase the recognition of their brand and its products. The Content Marketing strategy is used to achieve this goal, as frequent and consistent publishing of relevant content helps it.
Content Marketing can help increase organic traffic to your site. This is achieved through your social media posts. Reliable and useful information encourages visitors and customers of an e-shop to come back for more.
Providing useful information or tips about a product or service of yours makes the company an authority in its field of activity. It also gives the impression to the potential customer that you know your product very well so that they will turn to you when they are looking for it.
Content Marketing helps potential customers decide and move faster to purchase the products / services they are looking for. Relevant content that clearly presents the benefits of using your products or services will help customers choose your brand.
A relevant and original content will help you stand out from the competition on the search engine results page. Thus, you drive a large number of online visitors to your site.
Content strategy includes planning to create, manage and promote your content. It is a comprehensive plan that defines the goals, the audience, the message and the tactics that will be used to effectively develop and promote your content.
Some elements that go into a content strategy are:
You define the specific goals you wish to achieve with your content, such as increasing awareness, increasing sales, building trust, etc.
You define your buyer persona, their needs, interests and preferences. This helps you create content that will appeal to and interest them.
You define the key messages you want to “get across” through your content. You also choose the topic of your content, taking into account the needs and interests of your audience.
You determine the appropriate channels and platforms to distribute the content, such as website, social media, email, etc. This helps you reach your audience in the right media and in the right ways.
You determine the plan and schedule for creating and making your content available. You also manage content across channels and track results and report on their performance.
Content strategy also involves analyzing results and improving strategy based on that data.
You can use metrics such as performance indicators (kpis), website traffic metrics, email marketing responses, and feedback from your audience to understand the reach and performance of your content. Based on this analysis, you can adjust your strategy and improve its results.
Content strategy is a valuable factor in using content marketing effectively and achieving your goals. It helps organize your content while allowing you to measure and improve its performance.
After creating your content, you need to decide the appropriate channels to promote it, with the aim of maximum conversion rate.
To achieve this, you should refer to Google Analytics. Through them, you have access to the demographic data of your site (gender, age, city, etc.) and thus you can “understand” your audience and create the corresponding buyer personas. You can also see from which channels the most traffic comes and target them, depending on your target group.
