Hey!
I ran across this article, Your Content Marketing Should Look More Like Netflix, Not Webster's, and I really wanted to pass it on
I see the “dictionary problem” in my field a lot…it’s a dry, B2B niche, and most brands could benefit from spicing things up a bit.
Yes, people thinking with their business brain are focused and usually more tolerant of deeper content, but they still don’t want to be bored. Give people a reason to engage with what you’re producing.
You might not have a huge budget for video (though tools like Biteable make it more accessible), or feel creative enough to turn a brand’s messaging into an epic, heart-warming story…but you can make things a little more interesting.
You can make them shorter, more digestible, a little more fun.
That’s a big part of our job as content marketers too…Making sure our content is enjoyable to consume. Not just making sure it exists.
