What can we do with Kapost?
• Set up a workflow
with internal and external contributors with
deadlines, approvals, and status updates.
• Collaborate in a single place
with version control, messaging, editing, and
alerts.
• Get visibility
into what is being worked on by whom at any
particular moment.
• Organize multiple pieces of content
around a single campaign and show
dependencies.
• Upload/download content
and share both internally and externally.
• Receive requests/submissions
from all SIG employees, which we can
immediately prioritize, reject, or save for later.
• Share our publishing schedule
so anyone can easily find out what’s been
published and what’s in the works.
• Analyze our content inventory
by persona, buying stage, product line, etc. to
ensure balanced coverage and assess
strategic plans.

Hey, Cam. It’d be
really useful if we
had a white paper
on cloud security.
You’re right,
sales guy.
In fact, we created one 3
months ago and emailed
it to you and your team,
then uploaded it to the
company sharedrive.

Kapost has been a
HUGE help. Before
every call I like to look
at the sales sheet and
the datasheet, which
Kapost makes it very
easy to access.
I was amazed how
much quicker it is
and use it every day
to get information to
clients immediately.
It’s super
helpful!
The way the
information is
grouped and the
amount of
information is
phenomenal.
