And that’s why I believe that content marketing needs to be the core of your marketing program, which will be the engine of your entire marketing program.

Instead of focusing on your product or service and selling them, you devote resources to creating information that your customers and prospects need. Discuss Terms for a minute

Kirk Cheyfitz, legendary journalist and current CEO for Story Worldwide, a post-advertising agency, says that marketers have only two choices when communicating with customers today. One is giving them relevant, compelling and valuable information, or, number 2, show them a good time, or entertain them. That’s how we engage our customers. And this is not easy stuff, frankly, it’s sooo much easier to buy placement and interrupt customers with product and service offers. But almost across the board for most brands, we don’t live in that world anymore.
Our goal today is to be the trusted expert for our customers. That’s how we will grow our businesses.
Developing your own media does not mean you talk about yourself and your products (MyFord Magazine). Your customers only care about themselves…so give them information that truly affects their lives.
Anything you create needs to have the possibility of spreading. Have you ever seen people spread around a print ad, or an online display ad? Probably not. Create information that people talk about.

Google Alerts is a free tool. The first thing you need to do is create a gmail (or google mail account), which is also free. Once you have a Gmail account, go to www.google.com/alerts. Then, just type in your keywords. In this screen, you can see I typed in content marketing, which will search for the words content and marketing being in close proximity of one another, and send you an alert as google picks it up, once a day or once a week. You can set up as many words as you want.
