Content Marketing = Search + Social + Media
… Only If You Can Be Found
It’s a search game. And a social game. And a media game. All in one.

Content Marketing ≠ Inbound Marketing
A good content marketing program used to be able thrive on one web presence (a website or blog with dynamic content) surrounded by a good social mediaProgram. This “inbound” model doesNot work as effectively nowAs it used to.Why?

But is Content MarketingWorking for You?
• Are you creating content?• If so, what kind, how often & what channels?• How are you promoting it?• Is it being applauded or amplified?• What kind of engagement are you getting?• Is it working? (i.e., is it converting?) (and if it is, would you know it??)
![Page 12: My BU New Media Fall 2015 Class Slides - 2nd Half](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030311/58eeb6211a28ab6a5f8b4647/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Reminder: What is a Conversion?
• A conversion is a measurable event that indicates movement through the sales and marketing process (funnel)
• Possible examples of conversions:– Follow / friend / fan a social profile– Like / +1 / favorite a post– Share / re-tweet content– Sign up for mailing list– Open email– Click-through to website– Ask for more information on offering– Purchase– Repurchase– Advocacy / evangelism

My Secret Sauce1. I subscribe to my favorite blogs via
– Feedly (for reading on my mobile phone)– Email subscriptions
2. I aggregate my favorite blog content into a single email using Yahoo! Pipes, IFTTT and Feedburner so I get one or two emails a day with headlines and links
3. If I find an article I want to curate and share, I use two browser plugins…

Curation, Not Just Creation
• Content curation, or the reuse/repackaging of other people’s content, is becoming hugely popular
• You must be able to add value to that content: commentary, insight or more news
![Page 23: My BU New Media Fall 2015 Class Slides - 2nd Half](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030311/58eeb6211a28ab6a5f8b4647/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• At the peak of the era of mass communication, an elite few controlled the news and content agenda in print, radio and television
– e.g., The Boston Globe’s editorial staff• As digital media evolved the capacity to support
multiple channels, segmentation began– At first, left- vs right-leaning media– Then much more fragmentation
• Today, with so many channels across so many media, content consumption choices are much more difficult
Evolution of Content Consumption
![Page 24: My BU New Media Fall 2015 Class Slides - 2nd Half](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030311/58eeb6211a28ab6a5f8b4647/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Information Overload• Definition: When the volume of potentially useful and relevant information available exceeds
processing capacity and becomes a hindrance rather than a help• 90% of all the data in the world has been generated over the last two years• Information consumption in the US is in the order of 3.6 zettabytes (3.6 million million
gigabytes)• The average American consumes 34 gigabytes / 12 hours of information per day – outside of
work• “Between the dawn of civilization through 2003 about 5 exabytes of information was created.
Now, that much information created every 2 days” (Eric Schmidt – former Google CEO)• In the US, people who text send or receive an average of 35 texts per day• 28% of office workers time is spent dealing with emails• The typical Internet user is exposed to 1,707 banner ads per month• The human brain has a theoretical memory storage capacity of 2.5 petabytes • The maximum number of pieces of information a human brain can handle concurrently is 7
(Miller’s Law)• Information (over)load is linked to greater stress, and poorer health• Overuse of social media can lead to short-term memory loss

Podcasting Tips1. You already have the equipment
– You can start with free software and built-in hardware, then work your way up
2. Export your audio from videos– Whenever possible, capture content in video, then work
backward3. Listen before you record
– Not just to your own test recording, but other real podcasts and radio programs
4. Keep length in mind– Under your community’s average commute time
Content Rules Chapter 17
![Page 31: My BU New Media Fall 2015 Class Slides - 2nd Half](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030311/58eeb6211a28ab6a5f8b4647/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Podcasting Tips (Part 2)5. Publishing is easy-ish
– Pick up a copy of Podcasting For Dummies to tackle all the issues6. Submit to iTunes
– Plenty of other places too, but start here7. Plan before hitting “Record”
– Write out your intros and outros and have an outline of topics at least
8. Use music wisely– NOT from your CD collection, but music you have rights to use
9. Editing is your friend– And you’ll hate it, but you need to do it
Content Rules Chapter 17
![Page 32: My BU New Media Fall 2015 Class Slides - 2nd Half](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030311/58eeb6211a28ab6a5f8b4647/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Video Rules1. Audio quality is significantly more important than
video quality – use an external mic2. Get a copy of Get Seen by Steve Garfield3. Viral video “rules” get broken all the time, but in
general:– Shorter is better– Don’t bury the lead (the call to action)
4. Video isn’t searchable yet (nor is audio), so be very descriptive in title, description and tags
5. Include a dragon – a problem you’re trying to solve
![Page 33: My BU New Media Fall 2015 Class Slides - 2nd Half](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030311/58eeb6211a28ab6a5f8b4647/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Question: Monetization• #presentandfuturebusinessmodelsformonetizingthenewspaperindustry• What do you charge for and what do you offer for free?• Does free content cheapen you? Can it cost you business?
![Page 34: My BU New Media Fall 2015 Class Slides - 2nd Half](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030311/58eeb6211a28ab6a5f8b4647/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Gating: Costs and Benefits
• Kinds of gates– Paygates– Likegates– Infogates
• Does gating keep people out? Of course!• But does it keep out the wrong kinds, or the
right kinds?• A/B testing is one great technique to find out

I pledge to create something remarkable – something that people will love. Something they will want to share. Something I can be proud of. And if it fails to achieve my marketing goals, I won’t give up. I will try again. My failures will be the practice I need to earn future successes and future customers.

From Monitoring to Action
• Establish a conversational workflow– A decision tree outlining how
conversations are treated and routed across the organization
– e.g., if the topic is this, then this person should respond; if the topic is that, then there’s no need to respond

• Reach (how many people does this particular influencer influence compared to other influencers)
• Relevance (how closely aligned are the topics that this influencer writes/talks about compared to your organization’s topics)
• Reputation (what is the common opinion that people have about a particular influencer compared to other influencers)
• Receptivity (how approachable is this particular influencer, and how likely are they to be influenced by you – shoot too high and they may not be receptive. Too low and they won't have enough followers to make it worth the effort)

The Four Rs of Influence
R
![Page 79: My BU New Media Fall 2015 Class Slides - 2nd Half](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030311/58eeb6211a28ab6a5f8b4647/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
The Influence Formula
Calculate an influence score between 0 and 1000 for each by assigning a numeric value to each R in the following way, and multiplying these values together:
• Reach: 0-10, with 10 representing a wide reach and 0 a very narrow reach• Relevance: 0-10, with 10 representing a very close fit and 0 a stretch• Reputation: 0-10, w/ 10 being a household name and 0 a relative unknown• Receptivity: A percentage likelihood of action, represented decimally, from
.0 (0%) to 1 (100%)
The resulting output of this formula is a score between 0 and 1000
I = r1 x r2 x r3 x r4

The Art of the Pitch• “The biggest problem in PR is that people don’t read
enough.” – Former Journalist Ed Zitron
1. Has the reporter/outlet already written about topic?2. Will it be interesting to their readers? How?3. What do they love writing about? What interests
them as a human being and a reporter/blogger/editor?
![Page 87: My BU New Media Fall 2015 Class Slides - 2nd Half](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030311/58eeb6211a28ab6a5f8b4647/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
Top Pitch Mistakes• Wrong person/beat/name/outlet (read
before you pitch)• Buried lead (start with the ask/news, then
back it up)• Sounds like a marketing script (write like
you speak)• No links or contact info (make it easy for
them to get more info)

The Last Ultimate Press Release
• Here’s the first press release ever written:
• It appeared verbatim in The New York Times
• Probably the last time that happened…
• Since then, things have gone downhill…
![Page 97: My BU New Media Fall 2015 Class Slides - 2nd Half](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030311/58eeb6211a28ab6a5f8b4647/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
PR’s Catch-22• The press release’s goal – and PR’s goal – is essentially to
put words in reporters’ mouths• Reporters know this, and want to exercise their
independence• Meanwhile, outlets that automatically pick up press release
content are popping up like mad• This actually reduces the value of verbatim copy –
because it’s seen as inherently biased by everyone• PR’s goal needs to evolve: to make journalists’, editors’ and
bloggers’ lives easier by giving them the seeds of good stories

SEM vs PPC vs SEO• Search engine marketing (SEM) is a
combination of paid search programs and “organic” search optimization
• Paid search includes:1. Pay-per-click (PPC) 2. Cost-per-impression (CPI or CPM) (M=1,000)
• Organic search (i.e., SEO) focuses on “unpaid” ways to improve search engine results page (SERP) placement

5 Key Metrics of Site SEO1. Searchability. Is the structure, content and meta-content (descriptive
information including titles and keywords) of the site optimized for search engines (specifically Google and Bing), providing the best possible organic search engine results possible, as defined by search experts and online SEO/SEM measurement resources?
2. Accessibility. Is the site accessible from different kinds of devices, and can people with disabilities perceive, understand, navigate and interact with the site, as defined by the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative?
3. Navigability. Once on the site, is the content easily organized and navigated?
4. Sharability. If a visitor likes what the can see or do on the site, is it easy for that person to share their likings (or dislikings) with site managers and/or the general public?
5. Salability. Does the content of the site lend itself to one or more understandable (and measurable) goals – e.g., driving visitors to try out a product, buy a service or tell others about the site?

What is Digital Marketing Today?• “In simplistic terms, digital marketing is the promotion of products
or brands via one or more forms of electronic media. Digital marketing differs from traditional marketing in that it involves the use of channels and methods that enable an organization to analyze marketing campaigns and understand what is working and what isn’t – typically in real time.” – SAS Institute
• “In its short history, digital has evolved rapidly as a push-pull marketing channel, with marketers and consumers alike embracing a wide range of touch points such as social media to engage with one another. Within the past few years, digital has shed its reputation as the nascent weak sister to offline marketing.” – GigaOM

Two Perspectives, Same Dream• The brand: Wants a unified view of the
customer (“social customer relationship management”)
• The customer: Wants a unified experience of the brand (“social business”)

What is a Marketing Hub?
“A digital marketing hub provides marketers and applications with standardized access to audience profile data, content, workflow elements, messaging and common analytic functions for orchestrating and optimizing multichannel campaigns, conversations, experiences, and data collection across online and offline channels, both manually and programmatically.
“It typically includes a bundle of native marketing applications and capabilities, but it is extensible through published services with which certified partners can integrate.

Gartner’s Four Crucial Aspects of Digital Marketing: The Four Es
1. Have a single view of the customer — Know who you’re interacting with, no matter which channel or identity they’re using.
2. Use the same content engine — Get everyone involved – from content ideation, through to creation, curation and engagement – using the same platform.
3. Address all channels — Most of your customers are using multiple channels to interact with you. Have a plan for each, even if you’re focusing on just a few.
4. Don’t stovepipe your measurement — Have a consistent, overarching set of program objectives that transcend the platform. Don’t get trapped into platform-specific measurement.

control of owned media channels
