Focus on content vs. social media. Why?

Content is essential to a social media strategy. You can’t have engagement without content. Content sparks growth in social.

第26页

Why content matters

第27页

If your content today was a product in itself, would your customers buy it?

Or yet another way to think about it is if your content was actually a product in itself, would people pay for it?

Is your content so valuable to your customers that they would pay for it if they had to?

This is a fundamental shift in how to think about content. It’s a challenge but it’s also very exciting. We get to be part of changing how marketing gets done.

第28页

What is the reality today?

Let’s take a quick look at what is the reality today for your business.

第29页

Only half of decision makers worldwide would first turn to an existing supplier when faced with a business challenge.

Remember the example I used of the last time you needed something, which friend did you turn to?

Well for decision makers, only about half would turn to an existing supplier they are working with when faced with a business challenge.

Only half (53%) of decision makers worldwide would first turn to an existing supplier when faced with a business challenge. (Text100)

第30页

Customers are cutting brands out of their learning.

This is a well-known trend, that customers are cutting brands out of their learning. Decision-makers feel empower.

第31页

That translates to you and your company getting involved too late in the process.

On average, customers are57% of the way through theirpurchase decision makingprocess before engagingwith your company.

The challenge for us is, how to teach where our customers learn and become part of the journey before they even start due diligence.

第32页

They’re getting more and more of their information from outside sources.

Customers are also getting more and more information from outside sources.

第33页

Suppliers today account for less than one-half of all information that buyers use to aid in their purchase decisions.

Information you supply as a business now accounts less than half of all the information that buyers use to aid in their purchase decisions.

This means that depending on how many suppliers a customer is considering, you’re likely to receive no more than 10%–15% “share of mind.”

第34页

Complex environment with increasingly more players and more noise.

To make matters even more challenging, for most of us here today we are playing in an increasingly more complex environment.

That is more players that are trying to differentiate themselves in different ways. There’s also a lot more content out there and more noise.

第35页

What does that mean to your business?

What does this mean to your business?

第36页

Critical need for businesses to deliver the right mix of (valuable) content to the right audience.

If you’re here you already realize this.

There’s a critical need for businesses to present a balance of relevant technical and business content when engaging with multiple decision-makers throughout the buyer’s journey.

第37页

It all boils down to one word…

At the end of the day, this all boils down to a single word…

第38页

TRUST

Trust. The right content creates trust.

第39页

To become the trusted advisor to prospective customers in your space.

You are here to develop a content strategy that will help position you as a trusted advisor to key decision-makers and influencers in your space.

第40页

Have a personal trainer mentality

You have to have a personal trainer mentality to be successful when it comes to content.

You’re here to make your prospective customers better. Challenge the way they even approach their business. Re-educating and demonstrating the cost of not changing course.

第41页

Teach where customers learn.

There’s a need to teach where customers learn. You are teaching through content in a way that leads TO your products and solutions but not WITH them.

Don’t make things about yourself.

第42页

The problem is that content is too often just an afterthought

But perhaps one of the biggest problems I see is that for many organizations content is just an afterthought.

It is our job to be intrapreneurs and change that mentality in our organizations.

第43页

But if done right content can spark growth and be essential to your business.

If done right content can truly spark growth for your business and make a difference, going from nice to have to need to have.

第44页

Building a strategy that is tailored to your resources

第45页

So what does it take to create a content and social media engine?

第46页

Don’t underestimate the discovery phase.

第47页

Formalize your content strategy. Keep it simple but actually write it down.

第48页

第50页

Start with your audience in mind.

Who are you trying to impact?

第51页

You need to know more about your prospective customers than they do.

You need to develop a deep understanding of your customer’s business. Use that understanding to push the customer’s thinking and teach them something new about how their company can compete more effectively.

第52页

Who are you trying to impact (be specific)?

第53页

Find a purpose.

第54页

How do you want your audience to perceive you?

第55页

What are you audience’s top needs that your content can help solve?

第56页

Help position people to succeed. They will then trust themselves first, opening them to trust you as an advisor in their journey.

第57页

Discover what content will challenge and disrupt customer priorities.

Content that unteaches customers something they are currently doing in their business. Focusing on the cost of current behavior.

第58页

How will your content create value for your audience?

Your contributor strategy can make or brake your program. The quality and consistency of content will largely depend on this.

第65页

Think big but start super narrow and focused.

MVP approach.

第66页

Define roles and responsibilities

Define roles right from the beginning. Find the right balance between in-house and agencies. Get buy-in from different parts of your organization and involve the right people.

Many roles and responsibilities can be done by the same person depending on the scale of the program. But some of these roles are certainly required for a successful program.

I would not recommend completely outsourcing all of these roles and your entire content program either. You need someone that is driving this internally, that knows your audience, your industry/space and is passionate.

第77页

It’s all about people – Always is and always will be. People matter more than anything. We care about those we work with and those we serve. We are all about building trust-based relationships and establishing win-win partnerships. We care about the results but not at the expense of people. Everything we do should build trust.
We are challengers – Change is the only constant. We don’t just realize that, we enthusiastically embrace and drive ongoing change. We challenge the norms and push boundaries. We don’t maintain, we multiply. We are bold in what we do.
Growth and learning is in our DNA – Our curiosity sparks an endless appetite for learning. We can always be better. We are always pursing growth on all levels and fronts.
We are passionate for our work – We are here to create remarkable experiences. We get things done. Above all, we have passion for what we do. We are proud of what we do. We are relentless and driven.
We envision BIG and start small – We don’t welcome small thinking but we’re all about small starts. We are responsible risk-takers. We try new things without losing focus on what really matters. We know that greatness comes from caring about the little day-to-day things. We move fast.
We are generous givers, not self-serving takers – We give more than we take. We are always helping. We teach and educate. We are always setting people up for success.
We can do a lot more by doing less better and faster – We always bring our best. It’s focused excellence. We are obsessed about quality but with a iterative, fast-paced approach.
We will laugh hard, loud, and often – We enjoy our work and we have fun while at it. We don’t take ourselves too seriously.

Processes and tools to get work done and scale

第82页

Think about growth and scalability as you define processes and technology.

Think about growth and scalability as you define process and technology.

If you want to scale and be efficient, you need a process and technology framework to ensure a steady stream of relevant content.

第83页

Clearly define your processes and workflow. Develop it with your team.

Clearly define workflows based on the different types of content. This is something we are constantly shaping and improving, but Skyword has certainly helped us on this front.

To give you an example, of the research on vulnerabilities that we disclosed that to go through significant internal review, with PR and legal being heavily involved. Other evergreen thought leadership articles, just goes through our regular workflow.
