If communicate with your prospective customers by providing information instead of offering a sales pitch, you will call their attention and inspire their trust. It is more likely that they won’t skip your message over. Customers will listen (or read). The name of this smart tactic is Content Marketing. Its goal is to get a consumer to do business with your company.
Let’s look closely what, why and how a Content Manager should do to grab the attention of the target audience, and where Roadmap Planner will be helpful.
What?
Before you reach your marketing goals, you need to perform and manage a great number of activities. The main responsibilities that are necessary to succeed in the role of Content Manager are the following:
– Constant market research
– Building a content strategy
– Defining the goals
– Management and strong analysis of data
– Planning copywriting, editing, and content works
– Coordination and building consensus across the departments
– Management of multiple projects and interaction with multiple teams and high – level executives
Why?
All tasks mentioned above will help you to create a comprehensive and enterprise-wide visibility of the target audience, team, processes, technology and other resources that will contribute the improvement of the content lifecycle management. However, this long way to your destination conceals a lot of challenges.
First of all, a constant headache is a content management, as there is typically more than one project in the organization that requires new content, editing, updating. Then goes prioritizing of the tasks for these projects. According to the current market condition, you have to decide, what should go first. It is not an easy task, as it may seem at first glance. The last but not the least challenge that we want to cover in this post is reaching a consensus. Gaining a buy-in for a strategy, initiative or investment may sometimes look like a battle.
