The Rockstar CMO Solo: Creating ART with Content Marketing

As it’s Saturday, you may be expecting our host Ian Truscott to be sipping a cocktail and picking the brains of Robert Rose in the Rose & Rockstar, our virtual bar. However, an overrunning appointment means Robert didn’t make it to the bar, so Ian goes solo.

For this last-minute solo, Ian picks a topic he recently shared in a webinar for Marketing Profs – “The ART of Content Marketing” – where he shares the role content marketing plays in creating Awareness, Revenue, and Trust. 

The main points Ian makes this week:

• Marketing should focus on creating ART, not just content.

• Content marketing targets the ‘dark funnel’ of potential buyers.

• Building brand trust is crucial for long-term marketing success.

• Content should be useful and address the needs of the audience.

• Content should be launched and marketed like a product.

• Regular audits of content strategy are necessary for effectiveness.

Enjoy!
