You’ve created your content marketing program – with a written mission, strategy, message, research, competitive awareness, and metrics. You’ve measured and optimized existing content, built a content base, and differentiated it from competitors. What do you need to do next?

Learn four ways to maximize your content marketing. In this hands-on workshop, you learn how to get the whole company to buy in to content, promote content to attract subscribers and customers, and convert content consumers into customers. Maximize your content marketing as you:

  • Create content communities. To get the most out of your content marketing, secure buy-in from Sales, subject-matter experts (SMEs), product managers, research, and development (R&D) and executives. Recruit employee ambassadors, who have 10 times more reach than your brand. Create velvet-rope communities for buyers.
  • Promote content to build followers and subscribers. Create lead magnets and mega-content to pull in readers. Strategically choose how and when to gate or ungate content. Use organic, earned and paid media to extend distribution, maximize reach and capture more eyeballs with the valuable content you create. Stimulate user-generated content.
  • Increase conversions: turn readers into subscribers into customers. Build a relationship that makes readers want to become subscribers and members of your community. Then develop a strategy designed to convert subscribers into customers.
  • Prepare for the challenges ahead. The future of content marketing will see a seismic shift. Marketers must prepare for anticipated changes such as what to do when social media usage declines, how to start using artificial intelligence (AI) in content marketing, how to prepare for voice search, whether to acquire or create content, and what to do about content oversaturation.

This is the final installment in the ANA’s four-part series “Content Marketing Mastery Program”, where participants gain a deep understanding of the power of content in today's digital landscape and learn how to leverage it effectively to drive engagement, build brand awareness, and generate leads.

Building on levels 101--301, participants now delve into building relationships with SME’s, setting a clear strategy to transform subscribers into customers, and more. By honing these abilities, participants will be well-equipped to attract and engage a larger audience, ultimately driving increased conversions and achieving their marketing goals.
