Content Marketing Can Do So Much…Or So Little…Which Goals Should You Pursue?

How to Make Your Content Meaningful for Your Audience
One of the universal lessons of content writing is that even the most perfectly crafted, highly engaging material can fall flat. If you are not truly reaching your audience, and if your content does not resonate with them, it will not have the impact you intend for it. Even the best content writers in North America struggle with this issue from time to time.

In order to create material that will draw your readers in and keep them coming back, you need to establish some relevant goals. By doing this, you will give your marketing strategy structure, and you can then work to implement your goals effectively.

Here are the top 3 goals worth pursuing to increase the power of your content marketing:

  • Truly Connect – One of the top objectives any marketer should have is to build a rapport with the audience. If you are not continuously nurturing your relationship with your users, you will lose sight of what it is they need from your content. One way to build trust is to reach out to individuals when opportunities to do so arise. Instead of always creating content for the masses, try emailing individual subscribers who have previously sought answers to their questions. Ask them for feedback and suggestions on what improvements they would like to see on your blog. You can also develop a stronger rapport by engaging with commenters and participating in social media conversations. 
  • Provide Solutions – Make it a goal to be one step ahead of your customers. If you provide solutions to their needs before they are even aware of them, your blog and business will become invaluable to them. How can you do this? By performing market research, as well as by simply asking your customers for feedback, you will get a better sense of the concerns of your average user. Once you have this information, you can apply it to offer solutions before your users even ask for them. If your blog readers are focused on frugality and maximizing tight budgets, for example, you might demonstrate to them how buying your products will save them money.
  • Increase Customer Loyalty – No doubt, you should always work to attract new users to your brand. However, making lifetime fans of your current audience will help you to build a solid foundation. The people who repeatedly come back to your blog or purchase your products/services are not to be overlooked. These are the individuals who can help you stay afloat when you find it challenging to bring in new business. These are also the loyalists who are more likely to routinely respond to upselling. Additionally, your loyal fan base might do much of your marketing for you. Without paying a dime, you could expand your customer base through word of mouth on social media and in “real life.” How do you increase the loyalty of your audience? Be available when they reach out to you, be flexible when customers have issues, and follow up sales and customer interactions by asking for feedback. When you get feedback, implement the suggestions you are given whenever possible.    

Many content marketing goals are worth pursuing, and only you can determine which ones will benefit your business. You can start by connecting more deeply with your audience, providing solutions to your user base, and increasing customer loyalty. All of these goals may be enhanced with the use of epic content.

But Play by the Rules and with a Clear Conscience

My last blog post was the first time I ever wrote about a deeply personal experience. It certainly was heartwarming and overwhelming to receive so many kind and encouraging messages from family, friends, co-workers, clients, and even some past students and interns. Thank you! Some business associates and clients also responded with feedback on my comments about the “AI-generated content elephant in the room”. Healthy discussions ensued and I want to clarify that I am not against AI-generated content. If your small or medium-sized business has time and budgetary limitations, and you cannot hire a content agency, professional copywriters, and SEO content writers, then AI tools may be the way to go. I’ve summarized the key questions clients are asking about this.

Include Your POV to Encourage Conversion

Imagine how differently we'd see Star Wars if it was told through the eyes of a stormtrooper trying to get his next promotion or through Chewbacca's point of view. The reader of a story interprets the tale through the perspective of the narrator. Choosing an engaging and valuable point of view (POV) is essential to the narrative. You may not think of your content as a novel or a movie, but you're still telling a story through your blogs, email newsletters, videos, and other forms of digital content. Offering a unique POV with your online content can help make your brand stand out.
