Success stories with a problem
Content MarketingJust three examples of content marketing from the time when nobody had ever heard of content marketing. But three with a serious problem, a distribution problem. It cost a lot of money to let people know that you had content that they could use. And because you couldn't make the content available digitally, it was shared only moderately and very slowly. In those days, you didn't quickly say to your neighbor: "Hey Roderick, do you have part 11 of Shell Helpt yet? No? You can borrow mine." And if you did, it took a year before the neighbor at the end of the street had it. By that time, Shell already had part 20 at the gas stations. In short: it was old wine in old bottles.
But now the old wine is in new bottles. And they are digital! That makes a world of difference. In time and money.

For content promotion, you are therefore less dependent on expensive advertising campaigns.

content is SEO-proof so that it can be found;
is so valuable and attractive that it is consumed, appreciated and shared;
is so convincing that it leads to the desired behavior.

Content marketing is becoming a field of expertise
