One of the biggest problems facing content marketers and other content professionals today is their inability to create content that establishes a brand as a thought leader. There's never enough time to create all the content needed. This presentation examines an influencer marketing campaign that takes advantage of content manufacturing and that leverages the unified content strategy. While you may not leverage the same tools and standards that we did, the concepts are applicable to almost any content producing organization.

Content marketing production processes are broken. Most organizations can’t crank out the wide variety of content needed because their processes are outdated, inefficient, and riddled with waste. Oh, and then there are tools. Content marketers don’t have the right ones for the jobs at hand. In this presentation, content strategy guru Scott Abel, The Content Wrangler, will demystify the benefits of intelligent content for content marketers and outline the changes needed in order for marketers to take advantage of the approach. Attendee takeaways: How adopting intelligent content can turn a content marketing department into a content marketing factory How some brands are leveraging intelligent content to produce more content with less effort Lessons learned from the pros working in the trenches What you’ll need to get started #CMWorld

Creating A Digital Content Factory: Getting Started with Intelligent Content

In the Experience Age, consumers expect much more from brands than they have in the past. Once they’ve enjoyed an exceptional customer experience, they become intolerant of confusing, irrelevant, and inconsistent content. Brands that recognize this fact and deliver exceptional content experiences across all customer touchpoint will be rewarded with loyalty. In order to deliver exceptional content experiences, savvy brands are taking a critical look at how they create, manage, and deliver content. And, what they’re finding is that the approaches they’ve relied on for decades can no longer meet current and future business needs. Enter intelligent content. Content with superpowers. Content that is designed to dynamically adapt to meet customer needs. It’s content that is digital, data-driven, and dynamic. It’s digital in that it is designed and built for a connected world. It is data-driven in that can be connected to — and integrated with — enterprise data resources. And, it’s dynamic in that it can automatically respond to individual customer needs. During this opening keynote presentation (originally delivered at the Intelligent Content Conference in San Francisco, March 2015), Scott Abel, The Content Wrangler, and co-founder of the Intelligent Content Conference will explore the need for intelligent content in the Experience Age. You’ll discover why our current processes are insufficient, and what some companies are doing to overcome traditional publishing roadblocks.

Did you know that the average human brain processes information that is more visual up to 60,000 times faster than text? But wait! Text is visual right? Not in the same way. Photos, videos and other visual mediums communicate on a whole 'nother level than a paragraph of text. The rise of visual content marketing over the last couple of years has been driven by bevy of platforms and tools that give little excuse to not include it into your marketing efforts. Join Adam Helweh as he identifies these trends, explores the tools and helps you create a more vibrant visual marketing mix for your audience. You will learn: • Why is visual content more effective than other types of content • What emerging trends and tools are driving the use of visual content • How to go beyond the confines of the static image to make visual content that’s more alive and engaging.

You CAN prove the savings possible from moving your unstructured content to intelligent content. The benefits are measurable. Intelligent content combined with a content management system can facilitate savings and improvements in content development, translation, regulations, governance, multi-channel publishing, and quality. In this session, Mark discusses how the various processes benefit from intelligent content and discusses metrics that prove the benefit. If it hurts, then it's time to calculate the pain — and the relief. This session draws from concepts in Mark's book, DITA Metrics 101, The Business Case for XML and Intelligent Content. Mark also discusses which metrics you should gather so you can align your plan with corporate strategy and become the "Executive Whisperer." This session is part of The Content Wrangler Virtual Summit on Advanced Technical Communication Practices, December 4-5, 2014. Hosted by BrightTALK. Sponsored by SDL, Astoria Software, Acrolinx, oXygen XML Editor, Logos, Scriptorium, and Oberon Technologies.

Content strategy is about so much more than streamlining your content development process—it's about supporting your organization's business goals. To be truly effective, your content strategy should be global. That means breaking down the barriers that keep the different types of content producers in your organization apart. Your organization creates various kinds of content—technical, marketing, training, and more. Your content strategy may begin with tech comm, but it should also account for these other types of content to present a unified message and better serve your brand. This presentation shows how, with a global strategy, all of your content can work together to help your organization succeed. Gretyl Kinsey is a technical consultant with Scriptorium Publishing who specializes in content strategy and tech comm tools and technologies. Since joining Scriptorium in 2011, she has been involved with the development and implementation of content strategies for organizations in a variety of industries. She has experience with every step of the implementation process, from customizing transforms to converting legacy content to helping with follow-on support. She also frequently contributes her graphic design skills to the marketing side of Scriptorium. With a background in journalism and visual communication, she is interested in the convergence between technical and marketing communication, and in content strategies that encourage it.

Once a prospect buys a product or service, the content they interact with is no longer familiar. The instructions provided don't look, feel, or sound anything like the marketing and sales materials that introduced them to your brand. Neither does the service contract, the warranty, the customer support website, the product documentation, nor the training materials. The extensive variability in customer experience — and each customer touchpoint — creates a different and inconsistent version of the brand, some that bear little or no resemblance to the brand that executives believe they are building. There are often as many brands as there are touch points. For no good reason, the content experience changes drastically -- and not in a good way. That's why organizations that recognize the importance of a unified customer experience have started rethinking what it means to be customer-centric. Some forward-thinking organizations are reorganizing customer-facing content creators into teams under one roof. They're breaking down the barriers — the silos — that prevent them from collaborating; from creating a unified customer content experience. In this presentation, Scott Abel, The Content Wrangler, discusses the challenges of content inconsistency and incongruity, and why he thinks the future of technical communication is marketing.

George Bina explores the world of XML authoring for technical documentation. He shares tips and tricks designed to help technical communicators understand the advanced information management capabilities structured XML authoring provides over traditional authoring approaches. Specifically, George addresses the following questions: How do I know what content to create? What XML markup should I choose and why? How do I leverage markup to engineer better authoring experiences? How to we enforce content rules in XML documents? Why correcting content problems during the authoring process can help you reduce costs?

Time is in short supply. Deadlines are tight. Resources are even tighter. If you're like most content professionals, you have dozens of great ideas but not enough time, money or experience to bring them to life. But it doesn't have to be this way. In this content marketing meets intelligent content engineering case study, we will explain how the newly published book, The Language of Content Strategy (XML Press) was created with the help of the crowd, structured XML content, a wiki and a formal content strategy. Attend this session to learn how the two seasoned content strategists enlisted the help of 50 knowledgeable experts to create a printed book, an e-book, a companion website and educational flash cards in record time, all from a single source of content. You'll discover why it's imperative that content professionals —regardless of their area of specialty — understand and leverage the power of advanced information development practices. You'll leave knowing why a repeatable content production system, optimized for productivity and designed to efficiently produce multiple content products simultaneously, is no longer an option, but rather a necessity.

Getting the right information to the right people, at the right time, in the right format, and in the right language is the goal of every professional technical communicator. But, the pace of change is fast, and each and every step forward is often accompanied by two steps back. That’s because the speed of technological change is outstripping our ability to keep up. It seems we’re always playing catch up. But, it doesn’t have to be that way. In this slide deck, Scott Abel, The Content Wrangler, showcases five powerful information technology innovations that, when harnessed by professional technical communicators, can help us future-proof our content and ensure we’re meeting – even exceeding – our goals.
