Creating Personalized Website Experiences: One Site Does NOT Fit All!Vanguard Technology
Presentation given at the 2015 ASAE Technology Conference covering content personalization for websites. Session touches on personalization strategy, integration, user data, and offers a framework for developing a web content personalization strategy and plan.
Is your content working? This presentation will help institutions answer this question for every piece of content they publish, in every medium and channel. Content is the way our organizations’ work is manifested online — so content success translates to higher success of programs, services, and programs. Using real stories, this session will connect content effectiveness with business results. Attendees will leave with their own content success metrics.
Many schools create, manage, and measure content without a true strategy — without a sense of the audience and with no explicit, measurable goal. Once you do have an audience and goals, you can start to interpret the data from analytics software, survey results, usability testing, etc. We’ll discover which metrics are the most important for content and user experience evaluations, and learn to translate data into actionable recommendations for stakeholders.
This session will cover how the “old” way is ineffective, and will paint the picture of a better way of working that will result in more effective content. This session will include interactive exercises as well as facilitated discussion, so that at the end, attendees will have their own content success metrics to take back to their schools.

Inbound Marketing for Schools - How to Increase Traffic by Producing Less Con...Sean Henri
We all know that creating content that ranks well in search engines, increases traffic and helps you grow interest in your school is a challenging task, especially when you’re wearing multiple hats and competing against other schools who are attempting to do the same thing.
You could just churn out twice as many blog posts as you currently do, but we all know that’s just not realistic or sustainable. It’s also likely that half of those blog posts won’t end up generating any new traffic at all, making the effort feel like a waste of time.
In addition, the way Google ranks content has changed dramatically in recent years, making old SEO techniques not as effective as they once were.
So what do we do?
These slides provide an answer. I’ll explain how “topic clusters” and “pillar pages” can be used to create a more thoughtful and strategic approach to content marketing, helping your school’s website to rank for valuable high-traffic terms, generate more traffic, and capture more inquiries and applicants.

The way you communicate, and what you communicate, shapes how your employees feel about working there. Yet organizations often fail to prioritize corporate communication, to the detriment of their entire workplace culture.
Regular communication with employees sends the message that you value them as whole people. And consistent, meaningful communication can strengthen the employee-employer relationship. And when that relationship is strong, everyone wins: the employees, the employer, and the customers, clients, or patients.
You’ll come away from this webinar with immediately-useful tips and insider tricks from our 30+ years of experience producing engaging employee communications and leave with a blueprint of how to produce your own communications, or evaluate a vendor’s options, plus creative options.

Content Assess & Progress: How to identify high-impact content initiatives an...Content Strategy Inc.
With so many competing content needs within a large organization, you can’t do everything at once. So how do you know where to begin making content improvements? Now, there’s a better answer than, “Wherever you can!”
In this interactive webinar, we’ll introduce you to our “Content Assess and Progress” methodology. It helps you hone in on the specific aspects of your content, or content practices, that need the most work and will have the biggest impact on your organisation.
This presentation covers a three-step process for making your content more successful: determine your goals, make them measurable, and measure/tweak/report/evolve
Overview of content strategy: Content is the way our work is manifested in the world, so ensuring that content is effective means looking at the organization's goals, practices, culture, and audience needs.
Your organization invests more than you think in content. Are you using that content most effectively? This presentation contains insights to see your investments more clearly and think creatively about how to make the most of those investments
Empathy-based personas are an incredibly powerful tool organizations can do to make their content -- as well as their programs, products, and services -- more effective. In this presentation, we cover what they are, the results they deliver, and how to create them.
Your organization’s content is an investment in the present…and the future. The organization invests in a LOT of content – not only the webinars and conference sessions that your department produces, but also magazine articles, press releases, maybe research reports, clinical guidelines, industry standards, and more. But is the organization making the most of its content investments? For an event session, why invest in a conference room, A/V, possibly even food and beverage for only the 50 people that were able to attend, when the information covered in that session would be useful to so much more of your target audience?
Learn how to think more strategically about your content as an investment, and how to make the most of it.

Why content gets political, and how to use content strategy as a catalyst to drive internal change. Useful techniques for content strategists and subject-matter experts. Delivered at Lavacon 2018
Associations have long produced and published content for their members, their professions, and even the public. In fact, content is how associations show their value. There is more content competition from for-profit companies that often offer content for free. How do you meet that challenge and prove the value of your content? The answer lies in content strategy—a strategic approach to create, publish, manage, and share your content. The ASAE Foundation commissioned a research study to understand how association leaders are navigating the shifting content development and management landscape. Hear how associations are using content strategy to serve members' varied information, advocacy, and professional needs. This presentation shares models to develop or improve your approach to content creation, management, and marketing, and navigate the challenges to adopting good content strategy practices.
--Assess where your organization is on the content strategy adoption roadmap.
--Devise methods to improve your organization’s strategic approach to content.
--Integrate the principles of content strategy into your organization’s member needs, offerings, and culture.
--Prepare for a newly strategic, sustainable approach to effective content.
Content strategy helps associations stay on top of the changing content landscape with effective approaches, tools, and practices. Two of the principal researchers for the ASAE Foundation's “Association Content Strategies in a Changing World” study shared findings from the first phase of their research. More than 600 association executives reported on their challenges and successes for strategically creating and managing content. This session featured examples of how to connect content strategy to organizational strategy and goals, how to effectively staff cross-functional teams, and how publishing user-focused content can translate to membership value.
Content governance is where the “rubber hits the road” for creating better content in a sustainable fashion. The shifts created by content strategy go beyond the web team, IT, and subject-matter experts to touch Human Resources, Legal, and the organization’s senior management. This is key to digital transformation.
In this workshop, participants will explore where they fit on a content governance maturity scale, explore a variety of models, and identify which model will be most successful for their organizations.
This presentation covers what it takes to set up content governance, as well as what is required to maintain and evolve it.
Initial findings from the first study of content strategy adoption in associations. The study, funded by the ASAE Foundation, is being led by Hilary Marsh; Dina Lewis, CAE; and Carrie Hane. Key findings: some associations of all sizes and types are doing content strategy work; as a whole, the primary challenge is people, not resources or process; and content strategy is about much more than marketing. Part 2 is coming later in 2018.
So you want to implement chatbots? Make data-driven decisions about your digital priorities? Use artificial intelligence to serve members better?
The answers to your questions lie in your content – that is, the way you create and publish information about your organization’s work.
Reinvent your content, and you’ll reinvent your organization.
Consider how – and why – your organization creates its content
This session covered the triggers for effective content decision-making, maturity along a content/digital strategy spectrum, and the roadmap to greater maturity and greater effectiveness.
Content and digital governance is where the “rubber hits the road” for creating better content -- and a better digital presence -- in a sustainable fashion. This workshop enabled participants to determine where they fit on a content governance maturity scale, explore governance models, and identify which will work best for their organizations. We discussed setting up, maintaining, and evolving governance.
Keynote presentation for the Council for Exceptional Children Leadership Conference, July 2017. The content you create is smart, full of depth, and has the potential to advance or transform the field of special education. Content is what connects most from an association to its members. In fact, content is an essential part of the value that your unit or division provides – and a critical aspect of CEC’s survival. But in these busy times, it’s all too easy for members to miss out on your content, and pass up opportunities to get involved. That’s when they wonder whether the organization is providing enough value to keep their membership.
This session will illustrate what successful content looks like for associations and how to create it. Spoiler alert – this doesn’t mean creating more content, but in fact, doing more with the content that exists already! It will include real-life stories about associations that brought content forward and how that led to greater member satisfaction, higher retention rates, and improvements to their profession.
The National Association of Realtors combined data, collaboration, and empathy to streamline its enewsletters and produce better results. Case study delivered at the 2017 Association Media & Publishing annual conference.
Learn how to assess whether your content is working so you can make it more effective: determine the audience, set the goal, make it measurable, and use data to learn and improve
A successful content ecosystem takes connections connected content, people, and systems. Does that describe your organization? We didn’t think so.
At many organizations, content is created in silos, powered by politics, and not driven by success metrics. It might be outdated or contradictory, have different voices, or be disconnected from audience needs. In those instances, content is a drain and an expense, rather than an asset.
This presentation reveals how organizations of different types and sizes created content ecosystems that transformed their content into assets that deliver member value and drive organizational success. It also shows what a successful content ecosystem looks like; what it looks like when content, people, and systems are not connected; and how to create the content ecosystem that is right for your organization.
The better you understand your content and content owners, the more effectively you can analyze your content and make it better for the long term. This workshop covers common content challenges and the organizational issues that cause them, and then delves into how to create the right kind of inventory and analysis that drive improvements.
Legal services organizations produce a lot of content, and have an opportunity to create and manage it strategically. Having sound content strategy practices, supported with governance, is key to making their content more successful in educating consumers to solve their legal problems.
Your organization's content is a connector: A connector of your organization to your audience, and of peers in different disciplines across an organization. Content strategy is the key to making those connections happen in a sustainable fashion, and collaboration is at the very heart of it.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address

for your content
2. What we’ll cover today

• Delivering content to meet the needs of your
top-priority audiences
• Identifying your organization’s voice and tone
• Creating a higher “return on content”
• Developing content lifecycles
3. Your life today…
• “I want my latest video on the home page now”
• I promised the committee that we would make this
our top priority on the site
• But we are required to use the real name of the bill:
HR432B
• Why don’t our members use the resources on our
site?
10. Multiple parts
• A strategic statement tying content to business
goals
• Guidelines and policies: Who, what, when, where,
why, and how of publishing content
• Defining people, roles, and processes

of what key audiences want, and how their content helps
deliver that.
2. Content creators & SMEs have a common understanding
of the org’s goals and how their content contributes to
them.
3. Content creators & SMEs share their content in a
consistent, effective way.
13. Principles
• The organization creates content that its audiences want
• The organization creates content that helps it meet its goals

• Content that is no longer relevant is no longer available
• Content is promoted, surfaced, and cross-linked based on its
topic, not its source
• Content is created in the organization’s voice
• The organization manages content platforms, tools, and
channels in a way that ensures their effectiveness

session descriptions?
82. When it’s time to go…
• Sunset à aka, retire/delete/unpublish
• Archive
– online
– offline
• Technology is your friend here
83. Internal communications is a key
piece of the workflow
• Keep everyone informed when you remove
content, to ensure that you’re not breaking
links
• Partnerships
