Content strategy principles
content strategy: what is it, why it’s important and what are the content strategy principles we include in ours
So how do you avoid generating just another piece of forgotten content that doesn’t engage your audience or create value for your business?
The answer is a Content Strategy!
What is a Content Strategy?
Getting your audience’s attention is hard. Creating genuine connections with them is even harder. That’s especially true when you’re juggling 10+ marketing channels, they’re all screaming for attention, and you have no idea which ones are actually effective.
That’s where we come in. We identify exactly what content you need to reach your business goals and connect with your ideal clients. Then we do all the hard work – researching, writing and creating all that content for you.
Consistency
Random pieces of content that don’t relate to your strategy spread over different channels are a recipe for getting your ideal clients to switch off.
A Content Strategy ensures your content is consistent across your channels, and that it’s of the highest quality.
Education
Providing valuable content that teaches your audience something they find useful positions you as a thought leader in your space. So even if your prospect isn’t ready to buy or engage with your services when they read your content, you’ll stay ‘top of mind’.
Then, once they are ready, they’ll know you’re the go-to provider who knows their stuff. Your content will convert!
Easier content creation
Writers’ block is real, and without a Content Strategy, you’ll have far more trouble coming up with content ideas. When you understand why you need to create a given piece of content, it’s a whole lot easier to come up with ideas.
A strategy that maps out your goals will also ensure you create content that helps you to reach them.
Cut costs
Creating and distributing the wrong content can divert a lot of money and time away from your other marketing activities. Working without a Content Strategy leads to losing sight of the bigger picture, so you spend time, effort and money on content that doesn’t align to your target market or goals.
A Content Strategy helps you to define exactly what content you’ll create, and how that content fits in with the rest of your marketing budget.
