Content marketing is about getting as many of the right eyes on your content as possible, making a connection, and building trust. You need people to be spending time reading your blog posts, downloading your research papers, and signing up to your webinars and newsletters. It can be infuriating when the platform algorithms make it so darn difficult to get our links to our content in front of potential clients and customers. We don’t add value if we just dump links, but there are thoughtful and effective ways that you can share your important links, without alienating your audience and being punished by the algorithms. In the second co-hosted episode of The Content 10x Podcast, host Amy Woods and Marketing Manager Jason Morton unpack link dumping, what it means, why it’s a big no-no, and how to share links in a way that adds to your posts, rather than is the purpose of your post.

The key to a good marketing campaign is content that your audience can relate to and identify with. But what are some of the best strategies to help you achieve this connection? In this episode, host Amy Woods teams up with Content 10x Marketing Manager, Jason Morton, to chat about how you can create content with (rather than just for) your audience. They discuss how you can empower your audience to become the source of the content you create, instead of guessing what they care about and are challenged by. Market research is the part of the marketing budget that gets cut first, and the impact of this isn’t seen until the campaign doesn’t connect the way it was meant to. So, Amy and Jason break down how to put your audience at the center of your content marketing and the benefits of this approach.

Whether you call it core content, anchor content or pillar content, the concept is the same. It’s the long-form content that feeds all the other content you create. Having one main type of pillar content can be effective because you can focus on perfecting it and distributing it consistently. You also free up time and expertise to repurpose it, meaning nothing goes to waste. In this episode of The Content 10x Podcast, join host Amy Woods as she discusses the benefits of having one type of pillar content for your brand, choosing the best type for you and your team, and why it means less boring content!

All brands publish content, but there are those brands that publish content that’s so good and so helpful that it builds its own tribe of loyal followers. People that follow and share the content and recommend the products or services, without necessarily having purchased or used it themselves. The content is so convincing that they don’t need to! Can you think of any brands that produce content like that? John Bonini, founder of Some Good Content, calls these ‘content brands’ and in this episode of The Content 10x Podcast he joins host Amy Woods to dive deeper into what elements work together to create a content brand, and why optimizing for algorithms is not a long-term win. John is highly regarded in the world of B2B marketing, specifically in the SaaS space.

The science behind why people share content is one that could be debated ad nauseam. But, as with all things that involve the human psyche, there are no hard and fast rules that will guarantee a viral post, (if only!).

More and more, employee advocacy is becoming a niche marketing tool that businesses are utilizing to extend the reach of their content. But there is a right way and a wrong way to go about it, says Bradley Keenan, Founder and CEO of DSMN8.
