Content marketing. Od strategii do efektów
Justyna Bakalarska-Stankiewicz
Złów złotą rybkę w oceanie internetu! Wiek XXI to epoka informacji. A może raczej: nadmiaru informacji. Internet w coraz mniejszym stopniu jest źródłem cennej wiedzy, przypomina raczej śmietnik przepełniony fake newsami i milionami bodźców oddziałujących na odbiorców w każdej sekundzie. Do tego stanu rzeczy przyczyniają się także marketerzy, którzy w obliczu ślepoty bannerowej czy też programów do blokowania reklam szukają coraz skuteczniejszych metod przykucia uwagi odbiorcy. Nie jest to łatwe. Według niektórych źródeł średni czas koncentracji internautów w ostatnich latach spadł do 8 sekund - to podobno tyle, ile trwa utrzymanie uwagi przez złotą rybkę. Dlatego sposobem na zwiększenie zainteresowania internetowych "złotych rybek" miał być content marketing, czyli marketing treści. Jednak ten modny trend, realizowany w niewłaściwy sposób, wcale nie prowadzi do osiągnięcia zadowalających efektów. Zamiast tego powoduje jeszcze większy chaos komunikacyjny. Jak temu zaradzić? Tu z pomocą przychodzi Justyna Bakalarska-Stankiewicz, autorka książki, z której dowiesz się między innymi: Czego content manager może się nauczyć z oper mydlanych? Dlaczego o swoim odbiorcy powinieneś myśleć jak o przyjacielu? Czy content marketing sprzedaje? Czemu panda, pingwin i koliber powinny mieć wpływ na Twoją strategię? Jak być SMART przy określaniu celów w marketingu treści? W czym marketer powinien upodobnić się do Jezusa? Czy Twoja firma to Mędrzec czy Błazen? Jak pisać do odbiorców, którzy nie czytają? A także wielu innych rzeczy, dzięki którym stworzysz naprawdę skuteczną strategię contentmarketingową dla swojej firmy i marki osobistej.
