KEY TAKEAWAYS If you want to grow significantly you need to build a strong relationship with your customers. Content marketing enables you to do this.People come to know, like and trust you, over time. It is a marathon, not a sprint.Don´t just go create content. Know who your audience is and be clear about what your marketing goal is.To find your sweet spot, ask what my audience’s pain spots are, what am I qualified to talk and tell stories about, and what differentiates us from our competitors.Don´t publish on every channel. Joe explains how to choose which ones.Initially you will need to set up listening posts so you can better understand what your audience wants. But don´t forget to talk to your customers.Use your content to build your list. You need to get people´s email addresses to gain one-on-one access that will enable you to better serve them.Once you have people´s email you can use that to look at their buying behaviour.Use your data to the full. So many businesses don´t.Before investing in software, get the most out of free tools like Google Analytics.Create a long-form piece of content e.g. a podcast, then pull your short content out of that.Make sure you post to a platform you own e.g. your website. The socials constantly change the algorithms, so you can never 100% rely on it.Leaning too heavily on AI stifles your creativity and makes you sound the same as everyone else.AI does however make a great assistant for example doing research.It takes a long time to build a business, years, which is why patience is essential.
