For marketers looking to create the digital 1:1 conversations that accelerate prospects and customers through the customer journey, video is a must-have strategy component. In our last post on creating digital 1:1 conversations with video, I explained how combining video with marketing automation and interactivity helps you define the individual person at the other end of the conversation – both who that person is and what that person needs. The next step is serving up the...

This started off as a mobile marketing post, but before you knew it, as I was working it out in my head, it veered into a content marketing post. And it actually all started with an email. Maybe even the story of this post speaks to current nature of marketing, and if you are doing it right, then you just can't unbundle all the parts from each other like we hope to do one day with our cable tv packages. Like I said, it all started with an email. I am a huge fan of Warby...

Why? Because it...

When you hear the word “content” in a business context, you probably automatically associate it with “marketing”. As a tactic, content marketing has been around for hundreds of years, while the term “content marketing” has only surged into popularity (and regular marketing lexicon) in the past 6-7 years. And it shows no sign of slowing down — in 2016, 88% of organizations claim to be using content marketing as a key B2B marketing tactic. The undeniable popularity and...

Outdoor retailer REI recently released a new online video, Trail Angel, as part of their ongoing Every Trail Connects series. Marketers know that as video consumption continues to grow among consumers, especially on mobile devices, telling stories through video is one of the best ways to connect with those consumers. Using video for storytelling is very different from showcasing your products in a video. It’s also different from customer testimonial videos. Real storytelling...

Content this, content that. Content marketing, content strategy. Everyone's talking content, all the time. The question being most frequently asked is: who's responsible for all this content. Is it communications? PR? Social media? Marketing in general? The honest answer to all those questions is yes. All these divisions (and more) play a role in content marketing and in content strategy. Too many marketers, and the organizations they represent, mistakenly view content as a...
