Content Strategy Before Marketing
Before executing the content marketing initiative, the
content strategy will be used to govern the overall effort.
Where content marketing is the marketing technique for
creating and distributing relevant and valuable content,
the content strategy will focus on the creation, publication,
and governance of valued, usable content as a strategic
asset of the organization.
The content strategy team who will steer, manage and
govern the content strategy will consist of the following
roles.
What content do you
and your audiences
need, and why?
How is content created
and maintained?
How is content
organized, prioritized,
and accessed?
How are decisions
about content and
strategy made?
11
Key Guiding Principals

The underlying foundation to the content strategy will be based on four key guiding principles:
value, community, experience and trust.
Be a valued resource
of information & education
for solving customer needs
Create active
community engagements and
social sharing
Create a brand
experience around the
core value proposition
Build credibility & trust to
drive website traffic and
consideration

Short versus Long-Form Posts
A balanced approach will be used for Post production matched to the specific
goals defined for the individual piece of content.
Guiding Criteria for Short versus Long-Form Post Needs
SHORT FORM (500 words)
Best use scenarios
• online snackers
• all platforms
• traffic & shares
• Google rankings
• light or single point topics
Pros
1. People scan online, rather than read.
2. Lends itself to being shared.
3. Mobile-friendly.
4. Attract more eyeballs.
5. Greater potential to go viral.
Cons
1. Spouts me-too content.
2. People have become blind to formulaic posts.
3. Can't go in-depth into topic.
4. Too shallow.
5. May not provide enough info about topic.
LONG FORM (1500+ words)
Best use scenarios
• professionals
• desktop & tablet platforms
• Google rankings
• stimulating discussion
• thought leadership
• story telling
• informational topics
• educational topics
Pros
1. Google has a dedicated ranking mechanism
for long articles.
2. Keeps audience on site longer, increases
engagement.
3. Supports evergreen, foundational content.
4. Presents a broader, deeper view on the topic.
5. Caters to a deeply invested audience.
6. Provides quality backlinks.

Cons
1. People don't always have time to read.

A combination of short and long-form posts will be required to satisfy all content objectives within the content
strategy. As topics are identified and approved, form length will be specified based on underlying goals of each
post to give proper guidance and direction to the writers. As performance data points are aggregated over time,
KPIs will dictate best practices and use scenarios based on beqom's own unique target audiences.
