Content marketing is one digital technique that many businesses and individuals underestimate. The power of content after all knows no bounds, with a seemingly small blog post able to maximise your reach and benefit your business no-end. As an established and experienced web design and digital marketing pro, we use good quality content across all our projects to help our clients unlock so much more from their online presence.
One of the many advantages of putting content marketing first is the increased customer engagement that the right strategy makes possible. Here we take a closer look at how content equals more customers and ultimately boosts engagement for your brand.
Bridge the gap
Good content can help to bridge any gap in communication between company and customer. Whether you’re targeting new business or customers who have been with you for the long haul, using the right content across your social media platforms, email communication, blog roll and website will not only get customers interested but keep them interested.
Boost brand trust
Trust is integral to being a successful business in this day and age. The internet is after all a wonderful thing, with customers able to find the most competitive products and services, and competitors able to undercut you at the drop of a hat. This may not sound very ‘wonderful’ to you, but the net also gives you the perfect platform to cement brand reputation and boost trust to win even more business.
Without trust, even the biggest bargain won’t be snapped up by savvy consumers. Even businesses that aren’t the most competitive can become the number one choice for consumers by establishing themselves as trusted brands. Become the expert in your field and consumers’ go-to business by creating content that is more engaging, educational, authoritative and valuable than the rest.
Improve conversion
Without the right content, even the highest quality products and services will fall into the abyss. Modern consumers need a helping hand to source the best of the best, and content is the primary route to nurturing these leads. With a few carefully chosen and well delivered words, you can convert a browser into a buyer, especially if they’ve found you via a search engine.
Your content will help you improve the visibility of your brand off-site and deliver a positive user experience on-site. Leads can be generated from other avenues with content too. The cost of creating free resources like whitepapers, eBooks and case studies for example is much more affordable and successful than other lead generation tactics.
