A new year brings new opportunities for a different perspective and a fresh approach. With the prevalence and maturity of content marketing, savvy B2B marketers well-recognize that a compelling content strategy is the cornerstone to any results-driven marketing program. However, according to the research, it seems many organizations lack a clear well thought out plan.

If your organization hasn’t yet documented its content strategy to support your sales and marketing efforts, then 2019 is the year to make that happen.

 

Documented Strategies Improve Success

According to the 2019 B2B Content Marketing Report by the Content Marketing Institute (CMI), whether an organization has a documented content marketing strategy often indicates the level of success they are able to achieve. The research points out that 65% of successful marketers have a documented strategy, compared to only 14% for those who don’t consider themselves to be successful.

In the same report, B2B marketers also note that the top benefits of a documented content marketing strategy are that it makes it easier to know what types of content to develop, and it aligns the entire team around a common mission and goals for content creation.

 

It’s Time to Rev Your Content Engine
