For the last decade I have been
creating digital marketing solutions
for businesses large and small. In that
time I’ve learned a few things about
the governance and creation of web
content and how that content ties into
other marketing channels. Content is          Steve Floyd
often swept aside as the last part of a   Founder / Principle at AXZM

Editor's Notes

  1. The Bruce Lee Guide To Strategic Content by Steve Floyd CEO / Founder of AXZM – www.axzm.com – twitter: @nawlready
  2. The Path To Useful, Usable and Findable Content Is Narrow – Whether you are working with small business clients or enterprises, getting companies to regularly curate, create, edit, audit, prune while also optimizing their content for users can be difficult to sustain without the right governance In place.
  3. Getting There Can Be A Serious Challenge – Getting To A Place Where An Organization Has A Truly Strategic Approach To Their Content Can Be Hard To Navigate Without The Right Process, Tools and Roadmap.
  4. There Are A Lot Of Adversaries and Hurdles To Overcome Along The Way – Getting The Cooperation You Need From Various Departments To Execute Can Be Very Hard, Especially With Smaller Organizations Who Do Not Have The Bandwidth to Regularly Source, Ideate, Edit, Approve and Publish Content.
  5. There Are A Lot of Adversaries and Hurdles to Overcome Along The Way – More Often Than Not The Disconnect Between Writers, IT, Marketing and Stakeholders Makes The Process of Publishing Regular – Useful, Usable and Findable Content Next To Impossible.
  6. It Doesn’t Have To Be That Way – There is a Better Way To Go About Creating Content That Keeps All Of The Aforementioned Players In Line With Your Recommended Content Strategy
