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.
In this workshop for LeadsCon Path2Conversion, Michael Brenner explains the importance of content for B2B Marketing in today's digital world.
You will learn:
1. How to build a content marketing strategy
2. Editorial strategy
3. Distribution best practices
4. How to measure results

Why is content marketing critical for a healthy business?Scott MacFarland
Content has become noticeably more popular in
recent years. You have probably seen on many of
the social media channels the onslaught of articles,
infographics, blogs, photos, social posts and videos
all trying to communicate a message and compete
for the readers’ attention.
!
All types of companies, big and small as well as
entrepreneurs, and consultants are producing
content to let their voice be known, all while trying
to carve out their own slice of the market. It’s a
daunting task to say the least. What’s even more
challenging is the marketer’s job of trying to capture
the attention of the people most important to them
and measure the efficacy of their content.

When most people in the industry talk about online or digital reputation management, what they're really saying is Google search and PPC. And it's usually reactive, left dealing with the aftermath of negative information published somewhere online. That's outdated. It leaves executives, organizations and other high-profile individuals at a high risk of a digital reputation attack that spans channels and tactics.

Business leaders Leaders grasp the importance; 83% of executives place reputation in their top five areas of risk, yet only 23% are confident in their ability to address it. To succeed in 2024 and beyond, you need to turn online reputation on its axis and think like an attacker.\

6. Solve people’s problems, answer their questions,
evoke emotion and entertain them. And you
don’t need fancy tools or a big budget to do
that.
Remember to include events, interviews, life,
behind the scenes, step by step and how to
explanations, and solutions.
Think value, first.
Solve People’s Problems, Answer
Their Questions, Evoke Emotion,
And Entertain them
#zenith2016 @kmullett
7. Solve people’s problems
Make sure your content is solving people’s
problems. Your site should become a resource
with tools that provide real solutions for them.
This is more than just answers, this content
should save them time and help them perform a
task.
Provide stats, inspiration, specifications, apps,
calculators, templates, generators, facilitate
communication, and so forth.
8. Answer people’s questions
Answer people’s questions. Become a local school of _________
information and knowledge! And don’t just stop with becoming a subject
matter expert, really provide value.
Your site should be a relevant reference point to find out information that
proves that you are subject matter experts. You should answer who, what,
where, why, when, how, and how much questions before they are asked.
And do so with authority and relevance.
9. Evoke emotion
Does your content evoke emotion? Does it feed their wants, hopes, and desires?
Does it create feelings of efficacy, inclusion, or belonging? Have you invited them
into your community and made them feel welcome and wanted? Have you stirred
up or created controversy?
Don’t just create emotion, creation emotional connections and relationships!
10. And entertain people.
Don’t forget to entertain visitors. Be interesting, humorous, and intriguing if
you want to be word-of-mouth and share worthy.
Normally I show Will It Blend from the brilliant folks at Blendtec. -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIODuCUsL0c, but I will gladly give a nod
to the hilarious commercials from the folks at Duluth Trading Co.
And entertain people
11. Solve people’s problems, answer their questions, evoke emotion and
entertain them. And you don’t need fancy tools or a big budget to
do that.
Remember to include events, interviews, life, behind the scenes, step
by step and how to explanations, and solutions.
If nothing about your company
or products is worth writing
about then seo and content isn’t
your problem
12. Fix reputation issues to avoid
wasted marketing spend and
visibility
- 2 tools and 7 platforms? Are these tools, channels, or platforms? Yes. Some of you may
be spending money to garner attention, only to be rejected during the review process
because you’re not spending resources to mange what their research will surface. And I’m
pretty sure this isn’t how the Best Western Luxbury Inn would like to be portrayed online.
13. Unlock shares and backlinks with: the right content type, for the right audience, in the right place, and at the right time
You can unlock (earn) social shares and offsite backlinks by providing: the right
content and type, for the right audience, in the right place, and at the right time.
It helps if this is accompanied by a purpose, goal, and strategy.
14. The right content type or format could include: blogging, listicles, infographics, memes, videos, podcasts, eBooks,
guides, white papers, polls, how-tos, reviews, stories, etc.
15. Properly identifying and creating personas for your ideal audience is a task unto itself. But, it is a worthy task to tackle,
and when you are aware of the right context, market and locations, segments, and your clients intent to purchase, you
can provide content that is extremely relevant to them.
16. Where should your content live? Careful consideration should be given to where your content will be placed so
the value of backlinks can be maximized. This could include landing pages, marketing pages, blog posts,
events, news, f.a.q. articles, various forms of embedded content, or event off-site content with a citation or link
CTA.
17. Timing could be everything when it comes to content. Consider your content (editorial) calendar carefully to hit
events, seasonality, holidays, and to take advantage of news-jacking, trend-jacking, campaigns, lead nurturing
programs, conversion points and sales paths associated with your funnel, and of course, when your audience is
attentive and receptive to your message.
22. Social Media’s direct impact on
seo isn’t clear, but …
“Either way, companies earnestly active
on social media tend to create more
interactions and coverage, leading to
earned off-site backlinks and citations
which unquestionably impact SEO.”
34. Google will tell you what’s
similar
Match client questions and concerns with
what Google thinks is related, i.e. the SUBJECT
you should be writing about. Things not strings.
