Why do users visit a website? Most likely it's for the content. Then why is content strategy the most neglected aspect of user experience design? Delivering the right content to meet user needs requires attention throughout the process -- it must be planned, analyzed, produced, edited, managed, and maintained. Even though content is the centerpiece of the user's experience, it rarely gets the attention it deserves during site design and development. This workshop addressed how to integrate content strategy into the website design process, ensuring that the content that gets created is what users need.

Web content: it’s the meat in the sandwich, not the icing on the cake. Too often, organizations fail to deliver content that meets user needs and serves their business goals. Even during website redesigns, the editorial process gets short shrift in favor of building new features and creating new designs. Thinking about the content is always left until the last minute, always thought to be somebody else’s problem.
Ever wonder why so many websites feature dense, unreadable prose? Force you to navigate through pages of brochure copy and legalese? Look like they backed up a truck full of PDFs and dumped them in the content management system?
No content strategy, that’s why.
When done the wrong way, creating new content and managing the approval process takes longer and is more painful than anyone expects. But planning for useful, usable content is possible-and necessary. It’s time to do it right.
B2B tech startups struggle with go-to-market strategy (GTM), client attraction, and growth!
With the right go-to-market strategy, you, too, can get found by the right people, in the right places, at the right time, and most importantly, in the right context.
Jumpstarting your GTM is especially crucial for early-stage companies that have yet to achieve sustainable product-market fit and go-to-market fit.
But creating an effective GTM strategy can be extraordinarily time-consuming and expensive. Yet the right GTM can be make-or-break for so many startups and founders.
And that’s the reason why we created Go-to-Market Strategy Reboot Camp so that you can get access to the same kind of professional guidance that you’d normally have to invest at least $60K+/year for a marketing agency retainer or $120K+/year for a CMO.
Go-to-Market Strategy Reboot Camp was developed by industry-certified experts in content marketing, inbound marketing, sales enablement, digital marketing, marketing and sales automation, digital ads, SEO, social media, and email marketing -- with 20+ years of experience in small business, mid-market, and enterprise IT, especially within SaaS, FinTech, and IaaS.
Your ideal clients no longer research and purchase your products and services the way they used to. Is your company prepared for this reality? Or is your team completely asleep at the wheel?
When you enroll in Go-to-Market Strategy Reboot Camp, you’ll learn:
The Fundamentals of Go-to-Market Strategy (1 hour 17 minutes)
Content, Competition, and Branding (49 minutes)
Teamwork, Org Chart, and Content Roles (46 minutes)

Teresa Torres - An introduction to modern product discovery - Productized16Productized
The world of product management is changing quickly. In the past five years alone, we’ve seen the rise of The Lean Startup, design thinking, the Jobs-to-be-done framework, design sprints, OKRs, and much more. It can be hard for product teams to keep up. In this talk, you’ll learn a simple framework for how to make sense of all of these trends. You’ll learn how to mix and match methods in a way that leads to a coherent strategy that leads to better products.
Teresa is a product coach helping teams adopt user-centered, hypothesis-driven product development practices, and is the creator of Product Talk. She works with companies of all sizes on integrating user research, experimentation, and the right analytics into the product development process resulting in better product decisions.
Defining the content strategy is the easy part. But how do you actually make it work? Not just today, but tomorrow, and next year, and the year after that? How can you continually evolve and mature your content practices, create rock-star content teams, and produce better content faster? Sound magical? Nope, it’s just good content governance.
In this introductory workshop, we’ll use group discussions and debates, thought-provoking exercises, and real-world client stories to build your knowledge and awareness of content governance.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
How to identify where your organization fits in the content maturity model, and how to progress
Different options for content governance within an organization
The five pillars on which you need to build your content governance
How to advocate and influence for content governance changes
The steps to take to get you started towards better governance
A talk I gave at Google on Strategy and Product Discovery
We discussed:

Feature Prioritization Techniques for an Agile PMs by Microsoft PMProduct School
Main takeaways:
-PMs don't need a lot of data points to prioritize the features for the upcoming sprint. They just need to identify the relevant one's.
-PMs should be skilled to strike the balance between agility in making decisions and accuracy of perceived outcomes
-PMs should be able to prioritize the feature requests with minimum data points available and optimum techniques
At our company, it has been our legacy to raise the bar of excellence several notches higher with every new creation.
Our vision is to create residential and work spaces with modern amenities at affordable prices.
Responsive. Adaptive. Mobile first. Cross-channel. We all want a web that’s more flexible, future-friendly, and ready for unknowns. There’s only one little flaw: our content is stuck in the past. Locked into inflexible pages and documents, our content is far from ready for today’s world of apps, APIs, read-later services, and responsive sites—much less for the coming one, where the web is embedded in everything from autos to appliances.
We can’t keep creating more content for each of these new devices and channels. We’d go nuts trying to manage and maintain all of it. Instead, we need content that does more for us: Content that can travel and shift while keeping its meaning and message intact. Content that’s trim, focused, and clear—for mobile users and for everyone else, too. Content that matters, wherever it’s being consumed.

What's Your Perception Strategy? (Why It's NOT All About Content)Stephen Anderson
If we focus too much on content, we ignore what we know about how our associative brain comes to makes sense new information. Think about how many people respond before reading past the first sentence of an email, or how a magazine article doesn't get the same reaction when displayed in HTML. Or consider how knowing the author of a publication influences your judgement of that content.
Picking up from the session Stephen P. Anderson gave last year on "The Stories We Construct" (a biological look at the narratives that influence behavior), this session focuses on how we come to perceive—and respond to— information. From phantom limbs to magicians fooling our senses, Stephen proposes a model that makes sense of how we truly experience information. Practical? You'll leave with a deep understanding of everything UX is about and an awareness of common practices that don't account for this knowledge.
Let’s be honest: for most content strategists and other people working with online content, SEO is The Worst Part Of The Job.
It’s hugely technical, it’s shrouded in mystery, it seems to be focused on robots instead of people, there are unspoken rules, everything can turn on a dime, and it never, ever seems to end.
But SEO doesn't have to be this way. It’s time to begin a conversation between these two disciplines – they’re far more alike than you might think. And when they work together on behalf of users and customers, amazing things can happen that will drive your organisation forward.
I can’t promise to change your mind about SEO, but you’ll leave this session understanding how to build the essentials into your work in ways that are simple, make sense, and are pain-free. You’ll see what business impacts and wins for the customer SEO and Content Strategy have had at REI, a major retailer in the US. And you’ll have the vocabulary, understanding and tools that you need to talk with your SEO... or to take it for yourself.
Drive traffic, amaze your visitors, and Win the Internet -- with SEO and Content Strategy working together.

Content Strategy: The Key to Effective Web ContentRick Allen
Content is why people visit your website. Period. So why is quality content so easily discounted? Why do we neglect this critical website element that we rely on to attract, inform, engage, and retain site visitors? Answer: content is massive, political and time-consuming. A college website contains thousands of pages with limited content contributors, editors, and managers, all with different perspectives and priorities. In this session, learn how to implement and maintain effective content that drives marketing, engages users and increases website conversions. - http://www.epublishmedia.com
Today, it's quite probable that the two most important words for marketers are "content strategy." Content strategy identifies which content will best achieve your business objectives while fulfilling your customers' needs. Developing a content strategy also helps answer questions that often get left until the eleventh hour: Who is going to create the content, and how? How can you ensure your communications are consistent across all channels? What role will user-generated content play in helping meet your marketing goals?
This presentation discusses:
* the practice of content strategy
* useful, actionable details your organization can take advantage of immediately
Here's how to clean up your content strategy in 12 brutal yet sensible steps - inspired by #atomicdesign
Summary? The key to untie the content strategic knot and/or declutter your content strategy is to be found in its most fundamental component: your answers to the top of your (future) customer’s FAQ list.
An ‘atomic’ content strategy will answer FAQ #1 first, proceed to answer one question at a time, tag each answer systematically with their why, who, how, when, whereto and where… and scrum from there...
I presented these slides at Sisältöstrategiaseminaari 2012 (Content Strategy Seminar 2012) in Helsinki. The event was a co-production of Vapa Media and the University of Helsinki.
The presentation addresses why Content Strategy is a practice of such particular interest right now. It looks at how we got to where we are today, why content strategy matters, and a few future trends to watch.
Executing a Flawless Content Strategy | Chris Bennett | SMX Advanced 201497th Floor
Execute a flawless content strategy by getting more mileage out of your existing efforts. Don't think harder, think smarter. Use what you are already doing and repurpose or upcycle to hit all social sites in their native content medium. Create interactive marketing apps to disrupt and engage with your audience. Pull them away from the day to day stream of nonsense with your well thought out interactive content.
What is content strategy and what do content strategists do? Isn’t content strategy just copywriting? And why is content strategy so focused on people and systems?
In this presentation, we take a look at content strategy and learn how it can help you build and design better experiences and bring them to market. Content strategy, UX, and product design can work hand in hand to create delight while driving business growth. And when you’re doing it right, it’s hard to tell where content ends and design begins.
By focusing on the entire system and workflow from the beginning, you’ll create better content—which means a better experience for the people using your products or web site.
You’ll learn about:
● What content strategy is (and isn’t!)
● Why “content” means more than just words
● The 8 core components of content strategy
● The 5 key impacts of a strong content strategy

Content Strategy Summit 2014: Polishing Your Content Publishing ProcessLisa Maria Martin
Presented at the Content Strategy Summit, August 19, 2014.
You're starting to incorporate content strategy into your organization, building up (or elbowing your way into) a process that shepherds content from concept to implementation.
And yet: there are bottlenecks and broken tools, slowdowns and workarounds. Despite the big ideas and deliverables, the process of producing and publishing content is still awfully messy.
Luckily, you've got the skills to improve it. The content strategy work you're already doing can help identify and untangle the knots in your team and workflow, and lead to a more sustainable content production process.
11th hour copy. Fix-it-later launches. Our users deserve more than the last-minute content we often get stuck with. And you have the power to change the game. Learn how to introduce (and sell) content strategy into your web design process.
We find comfort in hanging out with like-minded people. It feels good to hear similar war stories or even better when other's stories are more horrific than our own.
In this session, I will share my challenges working as a UX team of one in a large organization. You’ll gain knowledge on how to educate and collaborate with your teams, tools to keep documentation to a minimum, and ways to share with executives how a UX team of one can make an impact.
Information Architecture is the backbone of your website, and needs to be considered strategically in the context of design, user experience, interaction design and more. Get a crash course in IA from Fran Zablocki, digital strategist at mStoner.

UI is language. Interaction is conversation. Content is the fuel that powers our designs. So what happens when the writer’s not in the room, or missing from your project team altogether? Good news: you don’t need to settle for lorem ipsum or half-baked prose. In this talk, Kristina shares language principles and content design tools anyone can put to work—yes, even the “non-writers” among us. Using examples from popular products and well-loved websites, Kristina uncovers the secrets to stellar content that anyone can create, no matter your role or area of expertise.
The Truth About Content: Broken Dreams and the Big FixKristina Halvorson
AUDIO RECORDING: https://schedule.sxsw.com/2018/events/PP97098
The marketing pundits made you a promise: create the content, promote it everywhere, and watch the money roll in. Now you’re stuck with a vast wasteland of unread, unwatched content. What’s the next right move? More promotion? Different content? Can AI help? Fact is, content is a complex beast, and we need to treat it as such. Come learn about a smart strategic framework that will finally help you manage content with confidence, now and in the future.
In content strategy, it can be a huge struggle getting everyone working from the same playbook. Why are we creating this content? Who is it for? Who is accountable for its success? To get to stakeholder alignment, we don’t need to rely solely on our persuasive powers. There are tools that can help groups set individual agendas aside and focus on building shared standards and strategy. Kristina shares her own methods for getting people on the same page in any project or team setting.

Content Strategy 2015: Marketing, Mobile, and the EnterpriseKristina Halvorson
Content remains a fundamental challenge for all of our organizations. Instead of talking about "what's next," let's talk about what's needed. Find out what basic questions every company should ask in 2015 before committing budget to new content marketing and management programs.
As content professionals, our jobs require more cross-team collaboration than ever, and that means it’s getting tougher to delineate our disciplines. When was the last time you did “just” design, content, or code? It’s no longer an option to only care about what’s on your plate.
Drawing from her experience as a “content therapist,” Kristina will share insights about how curiosity, empathy, and shared ambition will help us all build a better web.

"In order to succeed into today's competitive digital landscape, companies must leverage mobile enterprise technologies while engaging in social media cross-channel in agile content marketing blah blah blah."
Sorry, marketers. We can’t hear you, because we have collectively, actively stopped listening. Your ads, your overloaded websites, your sponsored content, your "infotainment series"—these are not the things we want or need. What we need, dear people, is for you to pause … and breathe. Stop treating every day like a fire drill. Momentarily ignore the shiny new trends. Instead, take a look at the things that are (still) fundamentally broken. Your message is splintered. Your teams are siloed. Your technology is backwards. Your content still sucks.
So let's sit down together and talk about a whole new world of marketing, one where pragmatism and principle drive a new kind of innovation: fixing what's actually broken, versus finding new things to break.

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.
Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.
