Is Your Content Sad?
Jill Kurtz, Owner,Kurtz Digital Strategy
I recently saw a stat that 60-70 percent of business content sits unused. It gets used somewhere once and then sits lonely and untapped. Content gets created and not used. That is sad!Creating content is a lot of work. You want to make sure you get lots of mileage from every piece you create.
First, be sure your content is great. Great content is:
Relevant
Informative
Entertaining
Pleasant to consume
Then, make sure you share it widely. Share your content:
On your website/blog
On your social media channels
In relevant social groups
On LinkedIn as an article
In your newsletter
On industry websites/blogs
You may have more options with vendors and partners. Explore them all! Everyone needs content. Let your content work for you by sharing widely.Keeping a catalog of your content can be very helpful with this effort. Get the most mileage by spacing out your use of each piece of content over time. Even a space of two weeks will make content fresh in the eyes of readers.
