Not All Content Marketing is Created Equal: Location, Size, and Scope | Marketo

Not All Content Marketing is Created Equal: Location, Size, and Scope | Marketo | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

A one-size-fits-all content marketing strategy doesn't work. Read on to determine why location, size, and scope are critical to being effective in your unique market.

 

As marketers, we hear a lot about content marketing for all sized businesses. In the midst of the tips and how-to guides from industry experts, there’s a lot of white noise. A sound content marketing strategy is integral to a company’s online success, but a one-size-fits-all approach to content simply doesn’t fly. When it comes to content marketing, there are three major components to consider:

- Location: Do you own a brick and mortar business? Do you operate exclusively online? What if your business is a hybrid of both?

- Size: How many employees does your company have? Seven? Seven hundred? Is it just you?

- Scope: Who’s your business trying to reach? Do you consider yourself B2B? B2C? What exactly does your business do?...

Jeff Domansky's insight:

Location, size and scope are the fundamentals for your content marketing strategy. it's critical to accommodate them in your marketing strategies.

The steps and costs of integrating social media into your marketing strategy.....

 

When people hire me to help them integrate social media into their marketing strategies, the first step is drafting a comprehensive document that lays out the following:

- Target market

- What terms prospects use to search for them online

- Preferred social media platforms

- How they’ll brand them

- How they’ll drive traffic to their main website or blog

- How they plan to connect with followers

- A specific strategy for each network (you may post different content and have a different client base on Twitter versus LinkedIn, for instance)

- What their competitors are doing on these chosen platforms...

Jeff Domansky's insight:

Here's a really great outline for a marketing plan and it's most important components.
