Essential Elements of Content Marketing

Buyer personas and journeys

Buyer personas are fictional profiles of your ideal customer, and a buyer journey is the course they usually take to become your customer. They help us understand the behaviors, interests, and pain points of our audience on a deeper level so that we can align our content and strategies around them.

Compelling content

Content is the voice of your brand and the heart of inbound marketing. It is the primary tool for everything we strive to achieve and depending on your audience and goals it may include blog articles, infographics, videos, social media content, webinars, quizzes, and more.
