 <\/p>\n

What attracted you most to be a part of the Digital Marketing Industry?<\/h3>\n

Well, it\u2019s been ten years since I moved from a traditional marketing role to that in the digital marketing<\/a> industry. The overwhelming feeling back then was a sense of excitement and energy that I wanted to be a part of.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What are the main trends that shape content marketing nowadays?<\/h3>\n

<\/b>It\u2019s an interesting question as we\u2019re about to see a lot of disruption to the practice of content marketing. The rapid development of AI<\/a> is one such technology which is going to have a profound impact on content planning, creation and personalization. For example, AI will allow us to better research our content, it will write the content for us (See Yahoo), and it is going to allow us to personalize the content online like we\u2019ve never seen before. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/i>How to make content that both resonates best with the audience and has an emotional impact on them?<\/h3>\n

We all have our objectives with publishing content. For some it\u2019s to promote themselves and for others it\u2019s to acquire a link. But for those publishing content on their own website, brand or blog, well you\u2019re wanting to influence the reader in some way. It\u2019s important to understand that – Your objective will not be met until they meet theirs. So you better get to know them, where they are, what are they looking to get out of reading your content, how will achieving their objective change their lives, and what obstacles lay in their way to taking the action you want them to take. Then in practice, to borrow the popular framework AIDA – Grab their attention, spark their Interest, create Desire and then guide them to Action.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How would you describe the connection between brand\u2019s identity and its social media content?<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s absolutely necessary but so often ignored. Brand means so many different things to different people but we should all agree that consistency is crucial. How could we expect our brand to be clear in the minds of our audience if there is a disconnect with our social media content.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) would you recommend to report on social media efforts?<\/h3>\n

I have a love\/hate relationship with social media. It presents so much opportunity but I\u2019m not sure there\u2019s another channel that is so often misunderstood. For example, I find it rare to hear of a business who has established objectives, let alone KPIs<\/a> for their social media efforts. And when they do they\u2019re so often not related to business goals. I always recommend that social media efforts be tied to business goals. If it\u2019s brand reach and recall, then yes the KPIs can be difficult but it\u2019s not impossible (Think brand searches, organic reach). In many instances, the KPIs can be more definitive such as referred site traffic or leads.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What tools do you use to manage your channels?\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

I honestly don\u2019t know how we could do our jobs without – SEMRush, GSuite, Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Yoast SEO, Zapier, Canva, etc. Well, we\u2019d be able to do the job still but it\u2019d take infinitely more time!<\/span><\/p>\n

What advice would you give to our readers who want to develop in the field of content marketing?<\/h3>\n

Well, if I was to have my time again, the first thing I would do is to improve my ability to tell a story. Storytelling is such an art and one that gives every content marketer a huge advantage. Then start writing and publishing articles on your chosen topic. Get your work out there.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
