Content marketing workshop presentation from Joe Pulizzi from the Content Marketing Institute - presented at IACC's annual meeting. Contains the 10 steps to success in content marketing.
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.

It provides examples of how some companies like Raytheon are successfully using journalistic approaches.

3. Why be Strategic?
• You have specific goals, per your marketing plan.
• You don’t want to waste resources (e.g. time).
• You need an overarching approach, given your goals and resource
constraints.
• Random and tactical approach (what many use) = Inefficient
• Strategic = Efficient and synergistic
4. Content vs. Engagement
• Content is the main fuel source to your branded promotion.

have to spend on social media engagement.
5. Content vs. Engagement

7. Developing “Contagious” Content
• U. Penn Wharton Study (by Jonah Berger, Ph.D.):
There are six factors to making content or movements
reliably “contagious” (i.e. viral)...
• S ocial currency
• T riggers (environmental)
• E motional

8. Developing “Contagious” Content
• U. Penn Wharton Study (by Jonah Berger, Ph.D.):
There are six factors to making content or movements
reliably “contagious” (i.e. viral)...
• Your content should score high on as many of the
six factors as possible!
10. Developing “Contagious” Content
• How well does this score on the six factors?
S ocial currency
T riggers (environmental)
E motional
P ublic (vs. private)
P ractical Value
S tory format (esp. popular narratives)
11. Developing “Contagious” Content
• Do you think that Always actually paid for > 55 Million views?
In other words, putting some
thinking time into developing
contagious content pays YOU!
12. Optimizing Engagement
• Making the most of people/identities, groups, and conversations.
• Optimizing updates/tweets.
• Varying the dimensions of engagement (1D, 2D, & 3D).
• Actively seeking and engaging target market groups.
• Passively/actively “listening” for relevant conversations.
13. Optimizing Engagement
• Optimizing updates/tweets…
• Make the most of operators (e.g. hashtags, people tags).
• Build social capital (Putnam, 2000) with those who could help you later.
• Tag the right people/identities.
• Try tools like Klout.com to identify good
targets for social capital building.
14. Optimizing Engagement
• Let’s practice optimizing some updates now…
1. Enter your social network of choice (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.).
2. Create an update and include some popular hastags (don’t submit it yet!).
3. Now, find some relevant, influential people (use a Klout-based tool or visit Klout.com) and tag
them in your update.
4. Visit your tagged person’s wall/stream and share or retweet their updates.
16. Optimizing Engagement
• Dimensions of engagement (Rosenblatt, 2009).
• You have to vary the ways you engage!
• Think about it: what would happen if you did…
• Too much 1D (broadcasting)?
• People would eventually tune out.
• Too much 2D (transacting)?
• You’ll eventually sound like a beggar.
• Too much 3D (networking)?
• You won’t have enough of your own optimally-branded content.
18. Optimizing Engagement
• Let’s practice engaging across the three dimensions now…
1. Enter your social network of choice (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.).
2. Post a 1D (i.e. broadcast) update.
3. Post a 2D (i.e. transact) update.
4. Conceptualize and draft a 3D (i.e. network) update (no need to post right now).
19. Optimizing Engagement
• Actively seek and engage target market groups.
• Marketing is about further penetrating a market (i.e. beyond our own followers).
• Remember: You can target both demographically and behaviorally.
20. Optimizing Engagement
• Example of a target market group (using Opodz, our host, as an example):
Demographic targeting:
Lots of startups and indie consultants
live in nearby Pasadena. Opodz and its
leadership should add themselves to this
group and then start engaging to meet their
goals (e.g. brand awareness, sales
conversions).
21. Optimizing Engagement
• “Listen” for relevant conversations.
• Again, marketing is about further penetrating a market (i.e. beyond our own
conversations).
22. Optimizing Engagement
• “Listen” for relevant conversations.
• Again, marketing is about further penetrating a market (i.e. beyond our own
conversations).
• You can actively and passively (ideal) listen for mentions of terms related to…
• Your brand identity (name, values, etc.)
• Competitors’ brands
• Your target market’s demographic and behavioral identity
• Your products/services
• Your organization’s leadership
• Etc.
24. Optimizing Engagement
• Let’s try active listening now…
1. Go to SocialMention.com >>
2. Enter a keyword that’s relevant to your brand and hit ‘Search.’
3. Look for one or more opportune search results.
4. Visit at least one of these results and engage through your brand’s identity.
HootSuite.com (Passive + Mgm’t) >>
25. Optimizing Engagement
• Let’s try passive listening (i.e. creating a “listening post”) now…
1. Go to HootSuite.com (need an account) >>
2. “Add a stream.”
3. Select your profile, enter a brand-relevant hashtag as a search query (e.g.
#marketresearch), and hit “Add Stream.”
4. You’ve now got a stream that passively monitors mentions of your brand-relevant
term, so you can jump in and engage when opportune.
Please note: Creating passive listening posts is ideal (vs. spending time actively listening),
but most substantive tools, like NetVibes, require a paid subscription.
