On May 22, 2013, SlideShare’s Kevin Fisher presented “Beef-up Your Lean Content Marketing Efforts with SlideShare” at the Lean Content Meetup in San Francisco. In his presentation, he summarizes “content marketing” and applies Lean Content ideas to the use of SlideShare for B2B Marketing. His example of the tractor brand John Deere publishing content to help farmers become better at farming illustrates how providing knowledgeable and relevant information on a topic of expertise builds brand equity. At Scoop.it, we believe brands that understand the importance of engaging customers through smart content, look smart and gather communities of interests that turn into a loyal base of consumers and evangelists. Once this need to discover, publish and share relevant content is established, the Lean Content method can be applied to producing content pieces in an efficient and effective way through the Build-Measure-Learn cycle heralded by the Lean Startup.
Kevin also reviewed the SlideShare platform and showed an impressive audience of professionals. If you are looking to reach such a consumer-base, be sure to find ways to leverage SlideShare. Our team at Scoop.it has found great value in publishing presentations on SlideShare, and we even saw success on SlideShare’s video platform vs. YouTube. We tested this concept by uploading the same video on both platforms -- and the video on SlideShare performed exponentially better. This an application of the Lean methodology of testing and measuring impact.
