Crafting a blog to be the cornerstone of your next marketing plan.
I think that everyone is familiar with the term blogging and it's definitely not something that's new to marketing.
When clients ask if blogging is old hat we'd simply point them in the direction of Google. When you go to 'Google' something, what you're finding is a carefully curated list of blog style materials, neatly listed in a chronological order for you to pick and choose from, proof that even in 2022 the use of blogging is not dead.
So how can we use blogging to form part of a marketing?
That's simple, you first decide what area of the business / niche market / specific product, offer or service that we want to concentrate on.
We work on creating one single written blog article which covers every aspect of your chosen area - this might include pro's/cons, features and benefits, industry information, related info, history, predicted future impact, production methods, environmental issues, reviews, testimonials, business values, business vision, people & places, trends etc etc.
This article will form the base root for the language that you'll use in your marketing and the key terms that you use to promote the business online. Once you've written this comprehensive piece you'll be able to break it down into smaller pieces for your blog, email marketing, even smaller again for social posts and create monthly marketing and social media plans around the single article. Working in this way ensures that you keep everything relatable to your original goal and saves time and effort by utilising and re-purposing copy from one article.
