brand’s specific product. Social
networks are vital to the success
of content marketing efforts, but
they are used primarily as a
distributor of links back to the
content on the brand’s website —
not as containers of the content
itself.

websites permits much longer
forms of content.

based center of gravity enables it
to focus more on demand
generation.

located within the social
networks themselves. As they
produce content, they place it
inside of these networks.

built to fit the context of the
chosen social platform

customer retention/
satisfaction
