Content Marketing Specialist - Words That Begin With You - Newton, NC

Content marketing, as I define it, is the consistent, strategic production of valuable information, through media your current or potential customers enjoy consuming, in order to help them know, like and trust you, viewing you as a valued source of help at the right time.

A few points that I underlined in the above definition bear some quick elaboration:

  •  Valuable – Content marketing is not about throwing together a few paragraphs of meaningless junk, stuffed full of keywords for the Google robots and telling people something they already know. That’s called wasting time. The kind of content we’re talking about here is information you could easily sell, but choose instead to share freely. Information your customer values.
  • Enjoyable – To have true value, your customer needs to enjoy taking in your content. This means a few things: first, you need to understand your customer and figure out what type of message she’ll get the most out of. But also, since everyone learns and engages with information differently, this dictates the variety of different types of content you’re going to need to consider creating if you want to reach your target audience effectively.
  • Timely – One of the most difficult, but rewarding, aspects of good content marketing is its consistency. Producing high-quality content on a consistent basis isn’t easy. Distributing it effectively and working to engage your audience wherever your content goes isn’t easy either. But it’s a blast! And it’s how you’re going to manage to strike the right chord with the right person at the right time, bringing the reward back to you.

So, this is where the tires really hit the road.

I can write copy, which is selling with words.

I can also write articles, books, and other marketing materials in your name and voice, effectively becoming you, amplified.

But the real power, the real long-term effect, is going to come from consistently doing so in a strategic way over the long term.

And THAT is content marketing.
