What is the Right Content Strategy
It depends….
On your customers – who they are, their expectations, and how they interact with you.
On you – your objectives, brand, business model and capabilities.
The right strategy for you is the one that best marries your customers’ needs with your business goals and realities to deliver the right content at the right time in the right environment to every customer. The result is a great experience for your customer that equates to helping your business grow.
![Page 9: Using the Right Content Strategy to Create a Personalized Digital Experience](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042813/54443f02b1af9f640a8b4840/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What Should Be Personalized?
It depends….
On your customer expectations, your data, your technology and your commitment to your customers to provide the most relevant information for them at all times.
So, pretty much anything you can personalize should be personalized.
– If it enhances the experience
– And to the extent you can support the effort

Segmentation to Drive Personalization
• Find the best method to segment your customers.• Geography, personal attributes, time, preferences, behavior
and customer lifecycle to name just a few• Beyond attributes and profiles – could be predictive and
modeled• Let the data drive you – guided by your experience• Understand each segment to its fullest extent….and
document it. Describe it. Map its journey. Tell its story. • Identify the content you need to fulfill that journey and be a
part of the story• Create the content for each touchpoint for that customer.

Content Types Matter

You Must Support Multiple Channels
![Page 17: Using the Right Content Strategy to Create a Personalized Digital Experience](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042813/54443f02b1af9f640a8b4840/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
You Must Support Multiple Channels
![Page 18: Using the Right Content Strategy to Create a Personalized Digital Experience](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042813/54443f02b1af9f640a8b4840/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Know What Your Customers Are Doing
• They tell you a lot– Through their preferences– By their searches– By their history– From where they are coming from
• Use web analytics and reporting tools to constantly measure and learn
• If you can understand what is influencing and driving your customers online interactions, you can adapt your content to enhance your customer experience
![Page 19: Using the Right Content Strategy to Create a Personalized Digital Experience](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042813/54443f02b1af9f640a8b4840/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Test Early and Test Often
• A/B testing• Copy and creative testing• Offer testing• Time based• Product attributes• Champion/challenger• The earlier and faster you fail, the more chance you have
to get it right
![Page 20: Using the Right Content Strategy to Create a Personalized Digital Experience](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042813/54443f02b1af9f640a8b4840/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Understand Your Specific Authoring Model
• Remove any barriers to publishing content. Make it as easy as possible on your authors/publishers
• Must take into account all the potential authors– Marketing team– Product team– Agency– Sales team
![Page 21: Using the Right Content Strategy to Create a Personalized Digital Experience](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042813/54443f02b1af9f640a8b4840/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Customer Authoring and Community
• Today we must understand that we don’t control all content, and some of our most influential content comes from outside the brand
• Customers can author content through word of mouth and specific user generated content
• Editors, experts and bloggers provide content• Allowing outside content to be visible can add credibility and authenticity
to your experience
![Page 22: Using the Right Content Strategy to Create a Personalized Digital Experience](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042813/54443f02b1af9f640a8b4840/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
