Content marketing means creating “content” that ensures you reach people. How will you get your audience to notice your message or product? How do you engage and interact with them? High time to take a look at the many options at your disposal.
Challenge them
Content is everything you can possibly imagine that you might spread online or through print. Text, videos, podcasts—you name it. The magic happens as soon as you manage to infuse it with whatever it is your company has to offer. In this way we were able to use the mediagenic side of the Dutch women’s handball team in a series of short videos on social media, challenging young fans to all manner of sportive accomplishments.
Go viral with content
And when skeleton athlete Akwasi Frimpong went to the Winter Olympics in 2018—sponsored by our client Cocoa from Ghana – our video celebrating his “journey to the top” even got aired on CNN. Good content marketing has the ability to go viral. Yet it certainly doesn’t always have to be flashy: it can be just as important to have something to Tweet for a whole year. But where to get hundreds of unique texts? That is when it pays off to have a specialist around, able to extract content from the tiniest details on a website, from maritime insurance to ink dispensing machines.
