Last week, I gave a short review of this book but before I put it away I wanted to have one more takeaway. In the back of the book they highlight a few case studies which I found interesting but also I have listed a shorten version of their top 10 content marketing lessons:
-
Only content that is valuable to your customers will work.
-
Need a thorough understanding of what is important to customers.
-
May can provide a replacement to traditional advertising.
-
Print magazines can still be a powerful weapon.
-
Great design adds significant value.
-
Creation of a dedicated internal/external team for great content.
-
Drink your own Kool-Aid, use your own products or services to prove their worth
-
Get your customers to participate actively with content.
-
Relevant and valuable content is just the first step.
-
Small business can compete, It’s not the money it is the content.
Besides Integrated Marketing, this is one of the buzz words that I feel is important in present day marketing. Take good content and re-purpose it or integrated it through out the marketing arena is what will work today.
