“Content marketing costs 62% less than outbound marketing & generates 3x as many leads.” DemandMetric
Your B2B tech company is onboard with content marketing. In fact, you’ve been at it so long, you’re awash in content but you don’t know which pieces bring in the most business.
Sound familiar?
According to Robert Rose Founder of the Content Marketing Institute, “Only 43% of companies have a documented content strategy.”
Instead, most companies have siloed content across the company and brands.
That makes it tough to know what’s resonating with your customers.
Not only that, you may duplicate your content efforts and probably have inconsistent messaging across channels.
According to one person I know, “Our website is a hot mess. We have tons of blogs, several White Papers, case studies, and webinars but it’s not coherent.”
Creating a coherent experience is good for your customers and prospects because it puts their needs first.
- A content strategy is audience-centric. Focus on solving their problems and you’ll create customer advocates who sell for you.
- It finds opportunities for updating existing content that performed well when it was new but has fallen off over the past year or two.
- Prioritizes content topic ideas and methods of delivery.
You know the sales funnel is sideways. The online noise continues to grow and you need to stand out in a sea of “me too” content.
