No! And Here’s Why

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is ubiquitous. It’s the underpinning of the robotic vacuum whirring around your living room, helping it choose the most efficient cleaning paths. It’s in the offices of wealth management advisors who rely on it to scour big data and find opportunities in the stock market. And the online travel agent who helped you plan your next trip to Europe? Yes, an AI-driven examination of your past preferences likely led that chatbot to make specific recommendations for your upcoming itinerary. Artificial intelligence can improve responsiveness, speed up decision-making, and personalize interactions.

Craft a Plan and Create Quality Content to Wake Up Your Audience

Do you watch talent shows on television? You’ve heard the panel of judges ask a contestant, “What are you doing this week to take it to the next level?” The camera pans to the singer or dancer whose face often reflects the stress of the challenge. The performance may include strobe lights, backup dancers, or pyrotechnics. It's big and bright, but can you remember the song the next day? Did it stand out from any of the dozen other 'big' performances? Unfortunately, the answer is probably 'no,' since the performances seem blurringly alike in your memory. If you're lucky, one of the performances was memorable, perhaps because it resonated with you in some way.

When the internet first started, most of us turned our noses up at the prospect of advertising online. As a business owner, you felt that you needed to go with proven marketing. This meant radio ads, billboards, paper advertising, and even the occasional TV ad when things were going well. Most of us have been around long enough to know how the Internet evolved.

When the other advertising methods weren’t as effective, many of us made the decision to focus on digital marketing. At first it started out with the quick pop-up ads that we could get placed conveniently on related sites. Then, we made the choice to really invest in online advertising. Content marketing was still fairly young, and getting your own website wasn’t exactly cheap.

Go In-Depth Without Going Overboard
Picture a movie poster. Front and centre, big and bright, you will usually come face-to-face with the star. You have expectations about this star and want to learn as much about them as you can.  Now imagine your company’s online content. Does a ‘star’ come to mind?

Prioritize and Maximize Impact
Digital marketing can end up a lot like a company’s Pinterest project: a lot of initial excitement that ends up looking much different than the original goal or, worse still, incomplete and forgotten!

Tips to Get Started on Your E-Book
If you want to switch things up in your content marketing strategy this year, consider publishing an e-book. You can provide a fantastic resource for customers and show off the expertise your company has to offer. The length or word count is up to you – consider your audience and be realistic about your internal or external resources – but the book itself should have a clear function.

Will Your Content Make It Into Google’s Rich Answer Box?
With digital devices come digital distractions. Studies are showing that our attention spans are decreasing, and some, like this study from Microsoft indicate that humans only have an 8 second attention span to focus. That means your online content needs to be more concise and useful than ever before!

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.
