Content Marketing Strategies for Small Business Brands
Content Strategies are how I help businesses make sense of content marketing. They’re also a powerful, no-nonsense plan for the creation and distribution of hard-hitting content experiences that connect with customers.
Content Marketing Strategies for B2B and B2C Brands
Content marketing strategies can also be complex, or simple depending on the brand. So, before I do any writing, I take a deep dive into your business goals to see how we can align your content marketing efforts to achieve them. This includes:
- content audits,
- persona research,
- user journey analysis,
- content gap analysis,
- competitor research,
- SEO strategy,
- editorial planning, and,
- user experience analysis.
Content Strategy Implementation and Content Creation
As a content strategist, my goal is to help businesses and organizations looking for strategic guidance with their content and its production, as well as all the aspects normally associated with content including:
- timing of creation,
- how (and how much) content should be produced,
- where it should go, and,
- how your audience will consume and engage with it.
From blog posts and landing pages to press releases, and SEO, I’ll create a detailed plan for your content marketing efforts to be successful. This includes an operational plan, or blueprint that identifies:
- what type of content will be created,
- who is responsible for creating and/or distributing content
- when content will be published,
- how to measure progress, and,
- when to adjust your strategy to keep it relevant, timely, and effective.
How Much Does it Cost to Develop a Content Strategy?
Nothing. I offer preliminary content strategies at no cost. I do that to help decision-makers understand the value of content, and because I believe it is that important. You can take the content strategy and run to the nearest content writer, if that’s what you think is best for your brand.
But they are unlikely to achieve your marketing objectives, because the key to success in content marketing is the emphasis of quality over quantity. For your content strategy to work, it needs a content writer who:
- provides a fresh perspective,
- knows your target audience,
- respects the customer,
- emphasizes your value proposition,
- masters voice and tone,
- prioritizes benefits over features, and,
- writes to overcome customer objections.
Most importantly, the content writer you choose for your content strategy should employ a data-oriented approach to understanding the psychology for your target audience, and how best to solve their problems.
Remember! Any content writer can write about your business. But a good content writer uses the written word to illuminate the many ways your business is the solution to life’s greatest challenges.
