While new content marketing tactics and trends are continually on the rise, many small businesses need to take a step back and determine what will and will not work for their brand. Phillip Thune, CEO-Americas for Textbroker, understands this unique challenge and in his latest article he suggests three strategies to implement into your content marketing plan.
Digital Storytelling: From sponsored ads to visual storyboards, marketers are experimenting with new tactics that weave emotion into a story. The goal should be to humanize the content in order to build trust and foster loyalty.
Establish Credibility: Publishing quality content on a consistent basis is a key factor to establishing yourself as a thought leader which will in turn gain trust from your intended audience. Repurposing content that is relevant for other social media platforms is another way to broaden your exposure and build quality backlinks on trust websites.
Strategy Commitment: While many marketers will develop a strategy, several will not take the next step to establish guidelines and implementation. Clearly identifying ROI and utilizing tools to help content creation will also help you in your efforts.
