0:47
to improve your low time. Welcome
0:51
to another episode of Marketing School.
0:53
I'm Eric Sue and I'm Neil Patal, and today
0:55
we're going to talk about how to leverage content marketing when
0:57
you are selling multiple products. Oh how fun.
1:00
Who wants to go first? If that means I
1:02
want to go first because you looked at me, I'll go first.
1:04
Okay, So here's my take on this. This so to me content
1:07
marketing is podcasting, it's video, it's
1:09
blog, it's speaking that to me, even
1:11
throwing a dinner to me is content marketing because like you're
1:13
creating a great experience for someone. So to
1:16
me, I like doing all these things, and the audience
1:18
is slowly grows some faster than others, and
1:21
I stick around. I try to stick around marketing,
1:23
right, So if my audience continues to grow around
1:25
marketing, then I can build around
1:27
marketing. I can either build or I can acquire,
1:29
and then I can plug things into my audience where
1:32
I know there's a certain segment of
1:34
my audience where there's a specific need
1:36
and it serves them. So basically, right now,
1:38
like if you think about our entire funnel, like the
1:40
podcast Neil and I do right now, this is our free content,
1:42
right then we have like our premium content too, like people
1:44
want like connection. And then Neil has like
1:47
a uber suggest right which I'll let him talk about in a
1:49
second. I have clickflow, which serves like a need too
1:51
and more and more so targeting the enterprise area.
1:53
But we're targeting different areas that we
1:55
know where we can help our audience. And
1:57
that's what I love about what I love about content market
1:59
because it doesn't just pigeonhole until it's doing
2:01
one thing. It allows us to expand because I
2:04
get bored easily. See Eric and I. Though, still
2:06
when we do content marketing, we're still in the same space.
2:08
If you look at everything, it's all marketing related,
2:10
so it's a bit easier. But now imagine
2:12
your e commerce site. You're selling hair
2:14
brushes, makeup, You're selling
2:17
all these different kinds of things. Content marketing
2:19
does get a bit more difficult doe to the fact
2:21
that you're not continually offering the
2:23
same thing. Because if you look at most of your
2:25
companies, single grain office traffic
2:28
generation, clickflow offers you more
2:30
traffic. A lot of the meetups
2:33
events you do in essence, you're teaching people how
2:35
to get more traffic. But yeah, if
2:37
you're in do content marketing, you have a lot of different products.
2:39
The only solution that I know is you
2:41
go and create categories, and you go and create
2:44
content around all the stuff that you're selling.
2:46
Or you can end up creating lists like
2:48
let's say you have a ton of beauty products, but
2:50
they all serve different things. You
2:53
can do lists like ten
2:55
essential beauty products that you should
2:57
always travel with not the best time,
3:00
but you guys get the point and then you can start going
3:02
after one, two, three, four, and they can all
3:04
be different types of products that serve different
3:06
needs and you can break down why people should
3:09
use them to look more beautiful
3:11
or feel better whatever, maybe and generate sales
3:13
at the same time. I think HubSpot's a really good
3:15
example of this. They have they create so much different
3:17
content, and we've talked about how they create blockchain content.
3:20
But they have their CRM, they have their
3:22
email service provider, they have a chatbot, they have
3:24
all these different little products
3:26
within HubSpot the suite, and somehow
3:29
they make it work. And so I think it was
3:31
Tony Rams that said this. But it's like, if you're like a movie
3:33
star and you tend to stay around
3:36
Hollywood, like things are going to work out for you. But if you're a movie
3:38
star and you try to go into like doing maybe
3:40
you try to become like, I don't know, like a game
3:42
developer or something, it's a you're starting from scratch
3:44
again. You don't have the relationship. It's way harder.
3:47
But if you keep building on top of content marketing and eventually
3:49
you're going to be allowed to you're gonna be
3:51
allowed to venture into different areas where you can offer different
3:53
products and different services. Yeah, and look,
3:56
with content marketing, the thing that you need to look
3:58
at is if you have a lot of different products services,
4:00
I would consider first tackling the ones that are more
4:03
popular. Do keyword research, look at
4:05
which products are going to sell the most. If
4:07
you're unsure even when you do cubord research,
4:09
as simple hack is you can go to Amazon,
4:11
see what's the most popular products and
4:13
services within your category and
4:16
look at the number of ratings. And more ratings usually
4:18
means that there's more buyers or serve more buyers,
4:20
and that'll give you idea which products
4:23
are the most hot. From there, start
4:25
creating content around those products. Same
4:27
with services. If you offer a lot of services,
4:29
go look to see which ones are the most popular. First,
4:32
go and create content around those. And then
4:34
once you saturate a lot of the content in this space
4:36
and you're running out ideas, then go and start creating
4:39
content around the ideas that aren't as popular. All
4:41
right, So that is it for today. But before we go, don't
