Check out Brock Scott's thoughts on content marketing
When it comes to incorporating the right tone of voice into writing, Brock shares:
"The tone of voice depends on company branding, product positioning, and customer personas. Have a deep understanding of the customer, where they may be in their customer journey, and consider the emotional implications of how your writing affects them and their decision-making."
He also shares about how to keep your brand fresh over time:
"Branding is emotional and connective. Use market research to understand the customer and the unique solution your product provides. Analyze your company mission, values, and employee advocacy, and analyze how well you deliver promises to the customer. Be consistent."
Brock also explains why buyer personas are important in content marketing:
"Creating buyer personas ensures the marketing and sales teams understand their customer segments and how to best solve their problems. In addition, personas allow for flexible, organized product positioning for each persona, generating a better conversion rate and more sales."
