Content Marketing – Using Content to Win Business and Build Trust – Part Two | Wood Street News & Blog

Content Marketing – Using Content to Win Business and Build Trust – Part Two | Wood Street News & Blog | Wood Street Content Marketing Collection | Scoop.it

For part two in this series, I will focus on audience. Who are you talking to? Knowing your audience is critical to achieving success with content marketing.

As I discussed in part one, there are different types of content marketing methods that produce varying results.

Each of these content types, from educational to transactional, are rooted in one main goal – to connect with your audience in a way that helps you achieve your online marketing goals.

One way to know your audience is to develop Buyer Personas. Think of it this way, if you are telling someone face-to-face what you do would you give them a canned speech that you wrote for the world? Probably not. You would tailor your answer to that particular person if you could.

You know what content you’re going to createYou’ve established your buyer personasNow you need to determine where to post it

If your content sits on a website and no one reads it, does it do you any good? Of course not! You can’t expect to post content on your website or blog and get tons of traffic out of nowhere. You need to promote and share this content.

Your content marketing channels are your outposts, with your blog or website being your homebase. Or you can think of content marketing like a wagon wheel.
