Content is the fuel to your digital marketing engine, but if the content you are producing is not aligned to address the specific needs, questions and barriers of buyers at different stages of the customer journey, you may be spinning your wheels and losing ROI. Too many companies create and distribute the content they think customers want to read without really investing the time to truly understand the varying needs of their audience or how those needs can change throughout their relationship with your business. Taking a customer journey-centric approach to content strategy means engaging the right buyers with the right content at the right time – adding more qualified leads to your funnel and ensuring that more loyal customer advocates come out the bottom. Gary DeAsi and Ryan Pinkham discuss understanding your customer journey, planning with the customer in mind and mapping content distribution to the customer journey.
