“How-to" content is a popular motif for almost every industry. Readers enjoy these online tutorials and educational learning materials. Google reported back in 2015 that 91% of smartphone users turned to their device while completing tasks and called these “micro-moments”. An estimated 100 million hours of “how-to content” was consumed in North America alone that year. In 2020, the number is, undoubtedly, a lot higher. Consumers want to know how to do things and want to do themselves or at least understand the process. Digital marketing can tap into that need by producing content to solve problems. Taking advantage of these micro-moments through “how-to” content can deliver significant results for your branding and visibility.

Sharing Your Brand Story through Content

In today’s marketplace, it’s not enough to have a great product or service. The best brands go much deeper and connect to consumers on an emotional level. Just think about the brands you personally love and buy. Talkwalker, a social analytics firm, just released its list of the world’s favorite brands. You’ll probably never guess which international icon tops the list - Lego. Other brands that made the top 10 were - The Container Store, Celebrity Cruises and Four Seasons Hotel. Most people played with Lego as children, which is one reason we connect so readily with the product. As adults, we buy Lego for our children and maybe even invest in some of their kits for ourselves. It’s a brand we love because it’s part of our story. Every brand on the Talkwalker’s Top 10 list has at least one thing in common. They all use storytelling to connect with consumers as part of their brand love message.
