How Are Companies Getting Better Marketing Results with More Content?
According to the surveyed marketing professionals the companies that are able to publish more content and get better results do have some commonalities.
Video becomes even more important, as it performs the best on most channels.
The content is either more likely to be produced by external agencies OR the companies have more strict control and bigger internal team, but not as many mixing both internal and external teams creating content. In many organizations, more members of the entire team is involved in the content creation.
The more content you post (and the more people you involve), the more important a good strategy, and managing the brand becomes.
The importance of consistent quality, publishing more consistently and having brand consistency grows as the volume goes up.
Companies are more likely to use automation tools when content volume goes up. Automation also helps with the consistency.
Even companies that publish a lot of content still say they would publish more if they could because they see the ROI in high-quality content.
