“I think of content marketing as a service – how can I provide people with information they need or fill a gap
in what’s already out there?”

Don’t forget to strike a balance between timely and “evergreen” content. It can be easy to get caught up in the trend of the moment, but the content will have a much shorter shelf life. I try to make my bigger pieces more evergreen and use smaller, more easily-produced pieces to focus on short-term trends and seasonal topics.

What content advice would you give to other marketers?
Pat OldenburgFive9 Senior Manager, Content and Web Marketing
“We have quarterly content board meetings with representatives
from marketing, sales, and product management, where we review our most recent efforts and discuss trends that each of
the departments see in their day-to-day interactions with customers and prospects.”

In my opinion, we are starting to see a shift in how we view content marketing, and content in general. Content powers nearly every marketing effort, from website pages to webinar topics to interactive experiences. And when used for sales, content can improve pipeline velocity, close rates, and retention rates. Many executives, ours included, are recognizing this and putting more resources behind this function.

Interactive is key! People like to click, slide, hover, reveal, overall—play. If you offer content that is meaningful and combine it with an interactive component, it will beat the best flat infographic or checklist.

“Rather than thinking outside the box, I would rather
understand the boundaries of the box—the persona/audience, our company POV, etc.—and
absolutely kill it inside the box.”
