So focus on the quality, not the quantity of content you’re pushing out there. Nothing improves content marketing performance more than high-quality content that the reader finds uniquely valuable.
Focus on the value to the reader, not the satisfaction of your boss or peer that really wanted to stress a certain feature. That helps with your organic ranking – and that helps drive traffic to your site creating more high-quality leads.
Be you. Be real. Don’t get caught up in some type of “corporate tone and manner” that’s more robotic than human.
Focus on the message – it’s value and relevancy to the reader – over design and presentation. Let the knowledge lead the way.
