Content Marketing vs Advertising Marketing
‘Content is king!’ We have all heard this, but how well has content been managed given the explosion of channels and increased sophistication of consumer engagement with brands? In Australia, we see the US Federal Trade Commission more invested in what marketers are doing and brands that mislead consumers through native advertising may face legal action in 2014.
With greater scrutiny by consumers and regulators, is there a ‘sweet spot’ between content and consumer engagement? What is the difference in native and content marketing and what categories and brands are seeing the most impact and success? What trends are taking place that speak to the future of success for push-pull content delivery?
In this session, in highlighting specific brands and categories, we will review the best approaches to consumer engagement and the marketing way forward with particular focus on ‘taking the bland out of the brand.’

"Connecting With Contractors To Grow Your Business" by Shelley Middlebrook | ...Susan Smith
How do you increase awareness and educate contractors on your latest products and services in today’s fragmented media landscape? Connecting with an on-the-go (mobile), busy contractor and grabbing their attention is not easy. The ability to narrow down and target contractors, and engage, educate, and convince them with content in the buying – decision-making process (buyer’s journey or purchase journey) is crucial to ensuring you have a solid return on investment. The success of content marketing is based on convincing and converting customers. By testing these channels and creative, optimizing, and collecting data, you can grow your brand’s owned channels to build an ongoing, valuable relationship with your audience. To build your business you need to run your brand’s marketing more like a modern publisher or media company providing ongoing value to your customers.

How Do You Create Content Marketing That Converts?
There’s been a fundamental shift in the way marketers and customers create, consume, and share content. Every day, billions of photos are uploaded, tweets are posted, snapchats are sent, and pieces of content are shared.
As marketers, we need to consider how our customers are consuming content and where, when, and how to engage them.
A content marketing strategy should be designed to engage your audience throughout the buyer’s journey. Producing relevant content for each lifecycle stage and delivering it at the right time and place is crucial to successful content marketing.
88% of marketers invest in content marketing but only 42% of those content marketers have a documented content strategy in place.

How do you build a high-impact content marketing strategy that builds your voice and visibility online with minimum time and effort? Don’t skip a beat and learn how to balance quality content with consistent posts and distribution.
Key Takeaways:
- Practical tips for content curation to help you carve the time out of your busy schedule

Live Webinar: Taming the Financial Content BeastLinkedIn
In response, financial brands have ramped up their investment in content marketing. However, many are still struggling to define how much content they should produce, in what formats and through which channels to activate it.
In attempting to ‘tame the content beast’, the solution is perhaps to anchor content back in the context of the customer journey. This process starts by mapping these journeys from awareness, through consideration and nurture to purchase – and beyond. These journey maps should then inform the choice of content format and activation channel, depending on the customer’s needs at each stage. This holistic view should also provide a more meaningful benchmark to assess Return on Investment.

Trends + Trendsetters: The Best in B2B Technology Content MarketingNewsCred
The b2b technology process is complicated. The marketplace is crowded and the complexity of the sale only increases as more stakeholders get involved. Technology marketers, however, can leverage content marketing to simplify their message and connect to these decision-makers.
A recent study by MarketingSherpa surveyed 4,000 b2b technology business professionals to understand what types of content these buyers are looking for. The types of content most requested?
CASE STUDIES: 67% of buyers reported case studies at the top of their list for most desired content.
EDUCATIONAL CONTENT: 84% of buyers want content that educates them and expect vendors to provide it.
CONTENT THAT SOLVES A PROBLEM: 72% of buyers want to find “solutions to solve a current problem.”
CONTENT CUSTOMIZED TO DIFFERENT BUYING STAGES: 60% of buyers look for different types of content depending on their needs at the time.
We surveyed the B2B technology landscape and interviewed content marketers from brands leading in these four areas. Here, we’ll discuss their strategies and see how they approach creating these types of content.

The consumerization of B2B technology is dramatically changing how decision-makers research, discover and engage with peers in their journey. During this keynote presentation, author, digital anthropologist and Altimeter Group principal analyst Brian Solis, will uncover the innovative strategies B2B brands are implementing to better adapt to the increasingly complex and cross-channel decision-making experience. Using his own research, analysis and experience with B2B companies as a baseline, Brian will share his perspectives and real life examples of how B2B brands can:
-Understand new disruptions in the modern decision-making journey
-Humanize the B2B buying experience using more emotive and personalized approaches

How To Plan And Build A Successful Content Marketing StrategyMichael Brenner
http://www.b2bmarketinginsider.com/content-marketing/plan-build-successful-content-marketing-strategy -- Did you know that every day on the internet:
There are 4.75 Billion pieces of content shared
There are 1.8 Billion photos uploaded
There are 700 Million Snapchats
There are 500 Million tweets
Marketing, as we know it, is being transformed right in front of our eyes. More and more messages are being promoted every day, on more channels, and as a result, consumers are learning to simply tune out the noise.
Because of this, brands must leverage content marketing to deliver the useful information necessary to educate and build trust with their audiences. But they often fail to document what they are trying to achieve, how they will get it done, and what measures will prove success.
Yesterday I presented to more than 600 attendees of the NewsCred #ThinkContent Webinar: "How To Plan And Build A Successful Content Marketing Strategy." I presented:
The key factors for content marketing success
The core components of a content marketing strategy
I answered the main questions of how to build a solid content marketing strategy
I shared my secret that effective content marketing was relatively simple:
"The buyer journey is nothing more than a series of questions that must be answered." ~ IDC
I shared the Content Marketing Institute's more formal definition of content marketing:
“Content marketing is the marketing and business process for creating and distributing relevant and valuable content to attract, acquire, and engage a clearly defined and understood target audience – with the objective of driving profitable customer action.” ~ Content Marketing Institute
And I shared the rallying cry for why we need to change:
"We have to stop interrupting what people are interested in, and be what people are interested in." ~ Craig Davis (former Chief Creative Office - J. Walter Thompson)
Backed by research and our own customer engagements, I covered
The 6 factors to content marketing success:
Document content strategy
Have someone in charge of content
Consistently publish quality content
Map content to buyer journey
Balance Paid, Owned, Earned Media
Track Content Marketing ROI
I provided an example and a template for anyone to develop:
Your Content Marketing Mission Statement
Become a destination for [target audience] interested in [topics]. To help them [customer value].
This will help us [your content marketing goals]
Earn your audience’s attention vs. just buying it
Reach, engage and convert NEW buyers

It leaves executives, organizations and other high-profile individuals at a high risk of a digital reputation attack that spans channels and tactics. But the tools needed to safeguard against an attack are more cybersecurity-oriented than most marketing and communications professionals can manage. 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.\

- New framework for examining and safeguarding an online reputation
- Tools and techniques to keep you a step ahead

field experience, the ADMA, in partnership
with content marketing agency Edge,
convened a roundtable of senior B2B and
B2C marketers in March 2013 to discuss the
survey results.

36. “I am going
to tell you a
story…about
why I am a
great lover!”
Content Marketing…
37. Lesson One: Research Your Target. Define Your Objective
Do I understand my customers? Clear customer
profiles, Attitudes, habits, media consumption,
competitors/benchmarks?
What actions do we want people to take?
Do we have the right message that will resonate
with our targets? Does the message connect to the
brand DNA?
Is our potential content newsworthy? Does the
content align against best practices, objectives? Is
this novel and innovative? Insightful and perspective?
Is it interesting? Be real. The best content is
natural but disruptive. It should "surprise and
delight."
38. Is the organisation silo-ed in terms of its
communication disciplines?
Do we have a senior function to integrate
the multiple stakeholders? Do we have
buy-in?
What kinds of content can we share and
do we have the right mix of staff to build
more? Do their skills and experiences lend
themselves to writing about certain areas of
your business over others? How will the new
content primarily be used?
Lesson Two: Integrate Resources. Think Content Factory
39. Lesson Three: Think Long-Term. Be Consistent
Think John Deere. Are we tied to the vision
of the brand/company?
Is the organisation appreciative of a
balance between short and long term
goals? Content marketing is a marathon, not a
sprint.
How do we measure success? The goal is to
change the perception. Measure everything.
Think about “people” not “visitors.” Measuring
by “click” is dead.
Do we have proper measurement against
process of content marketing? Monthly,
yearly and with 2-3 year plan?

Editor's Notes
JULIE
WHY RESEARCH:
Evaluates the current landscape and gives you an action plan to operate successfully within it
Determines what motivates stakeholders and drives their behaviors
Helps you create an effective messaging strategy that will move people to action
DON’T GUESS – GET IT RIGHT.
Taking action without the benefits of research-based insights is akin to a strategy of “ready, fire, hope for the best.” Instead, positioning and messaging research allows us to take the approach of “ready, aim, fire.”
Our structured approach delivers the following advantages:
WHO: Identify which audiences and customers you can win.
WHAT: Determine what will move them.
HOW: Craft the messages that will win them over.
Our data capabilities define
Audience profiles (upper 2/3 of slide);
Persona groups based on audience behaviors/emotions online (left column)
Where to find those audiences across the internet w/laser precision (lower 1/3)
