Hello, Guys, I am back with my next blog on Content Marketing. I hope that you understood the concept of website designing which I have explained in my last post. Now without wasting time let's start:
Content marketing is basically made up of two words Content and Marketing. Here content refers to all those things which we see in our daily life in newspapers, television, magazines, and through the internet such as images, text, videos, etc. Content is something from which we learn something, we get information. And what about Marketing? Marketing is a way in which we advertise our products with the objective of selling them. And here we are advertising or selling content. Now we take both collectively and know about content marketing. It is a technique through which valuable content is created and shared so that more and more customers get attracted to your shop or brand and can be converted into regular buyers. So what type of content you can share? Content that is related to your business or describe your products. Forex- you have a business of garments where you target the audience of Ladies and kids. So, in order to attract customers you have to do take certain steps:
Firstly you have to make a website where you have to put information regarding your business, products, regularly upload your products, give information regarding terms and conditions, till how many days refundability is acceptable and much more. You can start your Youtube channel where you can show your designs and upload videos on a daily basis. And if your designs would be good they will automatically be converted into buyers. Accordingly, your business will be promoted and you can earn some passive income. Here you can see that you are giving some valuable knowledge to your customers about your products. Now you will say that we are doing the same thing, we are marketing our content the same as we do on TV, Newspapers, magazines, etc. No, we are doing digitalized marketing of information known as Content Marketing through websites, youtube channel and there are many more ways.
There are certain ways where you can do Content Marketing:
1) Blogging(Blog articles) - It is the way in which you choose a niche(topic) and you write valuable content related to your niche and giving information or providing knowledge to the people. Take my example, I have taken the topic or niche "What is Digital Marketing and how does it work" and now I am giving knowledge to my viewers related to it.
2) Videos - You can make videos and can give knowledge through it. The best example is by making a Youtube channel and starts making videos related to a certain topic and provide genuine and valuable content to your viewers.
3) Podcasts - It is one of the famous ways of content marketing. It sounds something very hard but it is actually not. Podcasts are actually digital audio where you provide information in the form of audio to your Listeners. One good example is GIGL(Great ideas Great Life). It is actually an app that gives a summary of books in the form of audio.
4) Social media marketing - It is a way in which we advertise our products by using social media such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc. The most famous one is Facebook ads. Companies like Nike, L'oreal, Domino's has created such a big market for them by using social media.
5) Emails - It is the way by which we aware of the people regarding our products by sending emails to people's email id. You can understand from an example that when we go to any showroom, suppose Nike showroom in our city and buy something from there, the person doing billing ask our email id so that any updates or new product launched by the company can be informed to its customers, updates regarding new offers, Diwali offer, Christmas offer, mail regarding discounts on new products, etc.
6) Webinars - It is the way in which you give knowledge or information online or an online audience that directly sends your message to the people and converts them into customers. One of the best examples is when you come to live on Youtube with your viewers, doing live conferences with the people, etc.
7) Infographics - It is a graphical representation of data or information which you give to your customers to prove to them how you are working, how your sales are going up or down everything.
As you all know that graphical figures are easy to understand and can be easily understood comparatively to Text.
8) Cartoon - I think there is no need to tell you how cartoons can easily attract anybody's attention. Using cartoons for content Marketing is very much helpful for attracting a large audience as most of the people like to receive information in a sarcastic and funny way.
9) Quizzes - When we post content related to our product, we want that more and more people see that content and interact with our content which can be done through quizzes(surveys). Quizzes are made and done online where some questions are asked with the customers related to the products such as how you liked our product, what changes you like to suggest etc, so that company or business could know that what people think about their products and make changes in their products.
10) Generation/Calculators - It is mainly known as ROI(Return on investment) Calculators which tells us how much return we are getting from our sales which we made from doing content marketing. I want you to go to this site and know about this topic more clearly. https://contently.com/
11) Assessments - In Content Marketing assessments play a vital role. Assessments help to evaluate and measure the achievements of an individual and company to know how they performed in every stage of their journey which the other companies can apply with them also and become successful.
12) Apps - It is the most common way of doing Content Marketing. As the name suggests we have to do something with the app. Yes, here we create an app and write content related to our company or business whether it is in the form of text, images, videos. For the ex-Amazon app, the Snapdeal app, Flipkart has its app, Spotify, Zomato, Swiggy, etc. Apps can easily be downloaded from the app store and very user-friendly so, companies prefer to launch their own apps and make more and more customers.
