What are the top reasons companies are not consistent with content creation?
- Lack of resources
- Not enough time
- No idea what to write
- They are so worried about what to write they overanalyze EVERY SINGLE WORD!
Think about what users want to read. Most brands are so inclined to write only about them they miss the point of who is their audience and demographic.
Consider asking yourself what your customers are asking and how you can answer them without bragging about your brand. If they like your answer, I think they’ll take it a step further to look you up. Content that is great is often shared, typically ranks well after time, and attracts links. But you have to be consistent!
Speaking of bragging about our Brand, Triangle Direct Media
TDM has helped clients with content creation since 2006. A lot has changed since that time, but what hasn’t changed is those who are consistent with their content will out-rank and gain more leads and customers than those who are not.
