Build Your Content Marketing Plan: A 10-Step Guide

Content marketing is clearly here to stay. In the most recent study of B2B marketers from the Content Marketing Institute, 88 percent of respondents said that their organization uses content marketing. In that same study, however, only 30 percent of those marketers said that they believed they were effective with their content marketing efforts. Today, companies of all sizes create and market content for many reasons: to generate and nurture leads, engage and educate audiences, build trust and credibility, advance their industry, and to attract and retain customers. It’s a phenomenon that leads to billions of pieces of content being created and shared (some estimate 4.75 billion pieces shared online daily). And that is part of the reason that so few content marketers feel successful with their efforts. It’s hard to cut through the clutter. Getting your content to shine through means it has to be remarkable, and it needs to be produced with a plan.

Personalization lives at the core of ABM, and yet, personalization at scale toward target accounts (35 percent) and developing targeted content for accounts and personas (30 percent) are in the top five ABM challenges, according to Demand Gen Report.
