  7. Content Marketing

  8. This is its not-so-distant cousin… …but you have to create something to optimize

  9. What is it? • Content marketing is the technique of creating and distributing valuable, relevant and consistent content to attract and acquire a clearly defined audience – with the objective of driving profitable customer action.

  10. Examples of content (not inclusive) • Blogs • eBooks • Whitepapers • Webinars • Infographics • Case studies • Videos • Podcasts • Slideshares • Research/reports • Social media posts, tweets, etc • Email copy • And more!

  11. Why content? • Google doesn’t want to miss valuable content and rewards sites that update their content frequently. Therefore, businesses must create fresh content often and it must be valuable content in order to drive quality traffic and leads to their website. • Content, especially blog posts, helps drive quality traffic to a business’s website

  15. Three key benefits to content marketing • More web traffic • More leads • ROI

  16. The Fusionfarm difference • Content marketing is a complex process that includes the following: • In-depth research on industry and competitors • Keyword research • Optimization of blog posts so they are found by search engines • Understanding of buyer persona • Content planning • Workflow • Design • Promotion of content • Measuring success

  17. Pricing for blog posts for 6 months (500-700 words) • 1 blog post = $280. • 2 blog posts = $520 • 4 blog posts = $1000 • However, ask these questions: • Would we be creating original content which would require a deep dive into research (like a very technical industry)? • Would we be repurposing content with information from the client? • Would we be repurposing content with additional research?

  18. Questions to ask as you are prospecting • Do you have a blog? If not, where would the blog content live on the website? • Do you use your website for lead generation? • What are your goals for content marketing? • How do you track success? • How do you find ideas for content? • Do you write to a specific buyer persona? • How do your customers find you? • What content resonates well with your consumers? • Who is writing your current content and what is their level of expertise with content marketing, SEO and promotion of content? • How are you promoting content?
