Brands' increasing need for content is forcing marketers to shift the way they create content and distribute it. Leading marketers are powering advocates to more effectively create content and share the brand's stories.
Advocates create high-quality content that performs better – it is more trusted (92% trust advocate content), receives more engagement (up to 10x) and reduces marketing costs significantly (by 100x).
In this webinar, we'll share the best practices you need to effectively power advocates to create high-performing brand content, including:
-Why advocate content is 100x more effective than brand-created content
-How to find passionate brand advocates and power them to create content that tells your brand story
-How to measure the effectiveness of an advocate-based content strategy

Notes de l'éditeur
The way we go about our lead generation campaigns is we base them on a Unified strategy- we determine the goals of the client and these can be refined once we discuss a little more but then we also factor in the purpose of the potential leads who are seeking information. People are coming to Social Media Today to get information and make their business better. They are looking for a solution. Jive can be that solutionWe can guarantee the Social Media Today leads are better qualified because of the quality of the content, and the unique vision that understands what business you are in and what you are trying to achieve. We are not trying to simply deliver leads, we are trying to cultivate relationships and connect you to real customers.

We’d love to propose a content hub as a way to organize this lead generation campaign for Jive. The content hub can be specific to each of the verticals you are looking to focus on or can be more general to incorporate all three verticals and maybe more as the campaign grows. We envision leveraging existing Jive eBooks, whitepapers, and webinars to begin lead generation immediately (in the next few slides, I’ll show you how Oracle does this)
And let’s start by discussing how we help buyers make better purchasing decisions. Because before we can truly understand what we do for vendors like you, it’s critical to understand what we do for the buyer community.
