Content is worth its weight in gold
Content may take time to craft, but great content is worth its weight in gold once completed. Content continually adds value to your business from day one, from day six, day 12 and day 1,000. It continually adds, and adds and adds. When people search Google with a question that your blog answers, it will come up, even if it’s dated from back in 2005, 2010,
or 2016. So, it really is an asset that can add tremendous value to your business, literally forever.
“We’re only talking about great content here. Average content just doesn’t cut the mustard!”
It builds the trust with your target audience
It’s the fuel for long-term business success
Today, great content is the central plank of all successful marketing. It’s what fuels the success of your business long-term, both in terms of marketing and your business as a whole (more about this later).
It’s the pivotal plank in your marketing arsenal
Without great content, marketing just doesn’t work in this day and age. Businesses that don’t jump onto the content marketing bandwagon, or gravy train, or money train, whatever you want to call it, aren’t going to survive long in this technology driven, highly competitive environment. It’s the pivotal plank that brings your whole business together and it’s what your target audiences are desperate to find.
It supports all areas of your business
Content isn’t just about marketing. Content is how you demonstrate how good your whole business is – how good your operations are, how good your deliverables are, how good your products and services are. It’s all underpinned by great content and you need to communicate that throughout the marketing journey.
It’s great for sales
The content you produce becomes an amazing sales tool that every single person in your organisation should be using. When a lead or prospect asks a certain question, you go, “Well, here’s a blog article we wrote about it”, or “Here’s an eBook we put together that will answer your question”. It’s amazing how well it can support the sales process, which significantly increases your conversion rates, driving long-term sales.
It’s your encyclopedia
As stated earlier, your content is your business’s encyclopedia. Throughout your website, your content should be laid out to bear: what you’re good at, what you do well, where your thoughts are, where the industry is heading, what you do, how you do it, your processes, and your systems. All this should be documented throughout your website. So, content becomes an encyclopedia to your business for you, your customers, your stakeholders, and your potential customers.
Share everything
It’s our opinion that you should be sharing everything*. We threw a little asterisk in there around some really significant intellectual property, but barring that, you should be sharing everything. This is about the greater good. You build trust for your target audience by sharing and adding value to them, not by hiding things you do. So ultimately, you should be sharing everything in your business, the good and the challenging. This builds empathy and shows the humanity behind your business.
Don’t reinvent the wheel
Chances are, you’ve got a heap of content already, produced in different formats such as manuals, user guides, etc. This means, you don’t have to reinvent the wheel. Use what you have to the best of your ability. And then you can start creating new things in new formats once your current content/resources have been exhausted.
Repurpose
You can repurpose the one bit of content on numerous occasions. So you can do a video on a topic, which then can be turned into a blog article, which can be turned into a chapter in an eBook, which can then turn into a guest post somewhere else. There are all different ways and means you can repurpose
content, which is a great way to communicate to different people. And more importantly you are leveraging the content over and over again.
It’s a long-term investment that will pay off
This is not a get-rich-quick proposition. This is a long-term investment that will continue to deliver value, value and more value for your business. And you’re going to need to see it as an important priority for your business, because that’s what’s required to create great content.
