What is content marketing?

Content marketing is a creative approach to improving your online visibility and brand awareness through the creation and distribution of materials including creative copywriting, blogs, videos, images and social media posts.

Used by globally successful brands, content marketing can be scaled up or down to suit big and small brands alike. Prominent brands and their customers, across a range of sectors, have reaped the benefits of content marketing, in the form of increased sales, less costly activities and an improved loyalty through an optimised customer experience.

Why does my company need content marketing?

Regardless of your industry, content should form a core element of your marketing strategy. It offers a strategic edge through creating highly relevant, valuable and tailored content to suit your core customers or stakeholders.

The format of the content is determined by the audience demographics and overarching objectives, meaning that if your audience operates primarily on Instagram are aged 18-35, you would likely create engaging visual content (e.g. images or video) supported by informative captions.

What this achieves is an alignment between customer and brand. The user feels as if the content has been created specifically to solve a problem of theirs or engage directly with them. The sell isn’t hard and the angle of the content is to typically build familiarity and trust through entertaining, informing, educating and engaging with the user. The value is derived from the relevance and quality of the content to the user.
