If Your Content #Marketing Isn't Working This Is Probably Why | Business Improvement and Social media | Scoop.it
Content marketing can be a fickle thing. One day a strategy works, the next, it doesn’t.

So, if you’re knee-deep in content marketing but it just doesn’t seem to be working, here are the top reasons I see campaigns fail. Hopefully you can use this as a diagnostic tool for your marketing and give it the shot in the arm it requires.

6 Essential Tips to Create More Valuable Content #contentmarketing

6 Essential Tips to Create More Valuable Content #contentmarketing | Business Improvement and Social media | Scoop.it
Quality content may mean different things to different people.

In real life, there’s no hard definition. In one instance, readers may find short, focused content that answers one specific question very well valuable. In another, a long, detailed post presenting a well-reasoned point of view might be exactly what they are looking for.

If your idea of quality depends on on how well the content answers a searcher’s question, how different must the definition be for various kinds of people?

For a small business owner, and even for some seasoned SEOs, subjectivity makes SEO a moving target.

Interesting Infographics: The Content Marketing Hierarchy of Needs | CustomerThink

Interesting Infographics: The Content Marketing Hierarchy of Needs | CustomerThink | Business Improvement and Social media | Scoop.it
Have you ever heard of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs? It’s a useful concept for sales and marketing to create better connections and relationships with prospects and clients. Abraham Maslow wrote a paper in 1943, “A Theory of Human Motivation” and subsequent book, Motivation and Personality, where he summarized the 5 needs most people search for. The more basic needs are represented at the bottom of the pyramid.

Contently has applied this concept to content marketing which you can read below. It’s a more strategic approach to creating your content to better connect with readers. I think for each layer, we can add other elements depending on your target market.  How are you or will you incorporate Maslow’s Hierarch of Needs into your content?

Six Content Marketing Principles You Shouldn't Be Ignoring (but Probably Are)

Six Content Marketing Principles You Shouldn't Be Ignoring (but Probably Are) | Business Improvement and Social media | Scoop.it
Content marketing can be as complex or as simple as you want it to be. You may base your strategy on the basic idea of producing valuable material for your users, or dig deep into data that dictates a complex process of creating content for the entirety of the customer journey.

Either way, some fundamental content marketing principles should be guiding how you create and distribute your content.

The trouble is, many marketers don't follow those fundamental principles, usually out of ignorance or apathy. Neglecting them, however, can put a serious damper on your potential growth.

So, when planning your content marketing efforts, keep the following six principles in mind.

#SocialMedia Has Killed Consumer Trust

#SocialMedia Has Killed Consumer Trust | Business Improvement and Social media | Scoop.it

The phrase “people trust people, not brand advertising” should be updated to state: “People trust real people and real friends,  not social media and/or brand advertising.” Nowhere is this more evident than among the Millennial generation, who for all their good intentions and social-do-goodness, are less trusting of what they read and see in social media.

 

An October 2014 Student Monitor survey queried college students about the the media through which they learn about products and services. The number one channel by which students preferred to receive product/service information was good old-fashioned word of mouth (48%). Interesting, “ads on the Internet” was second at 39%, well ahead of “information on the Internet” (21%) and “product reviews online” (18%)....

Why the best #content is about #marketing sideways | Jay Baer

Why the best #content is about #marketing sideways | Jay Baer | Business Improvement and Social media | Scoop.it

The most successful content marketing is marketing that transcends the transactions and provides a glimpse into the company's personality, says Jay Baer in this video and short blog post

 

.Terry: So when a company’s just starting with content marketing, what are some key performance indicators, basic KPIs that they could start with in order to start measuring the effectiveness and success of their efforts?

 

Jay: It depends on the type of company and whether they’re B2B or B2C or how they sort of track their actual business in the real world. But, generally speaking, I think the best way to look at content programs is to say:“Do people care about it? Is there proof of caring?” And a lot of times you can measure that just anecdotally. You don’t have to necessarily have a whole complicated scheme.

 

For an example, there’s a company called Life Technologies – a major global manufacturer of scientific equipment. They have this great content program where they take their product catalog and they execute it as a series of YouTube videos that are chained together with annotations.So it’s almost like a choose-your-own adventure product catalog....
