It takes time, money and resources, yet it’s a critical part of the overall marketing engine.
Still, too many businesses don’t prioritize content, or worse, publish content for the sake of it. They know they need it, yet they’re not exactly sure why.
Does that sound like you or your organization?
The primary role of content for any businesses is to entertain, inform, and engage their audience so when they’re ready to consider a purchase, they think of that business. It’s a long game, but too many businesses lose sight of this. They give up too soon and abandon their content efforts before it really gets going.
As a result, businesses aren’t getting what they need from their content. They lack strategy and vision, and don’t know what they want it to do for them. It’s not tied to business goals, initiatives or objectives, and there is nothing to measure its effectiveness.
And they don’t see success with their content and stop publishing altogether.
If this sounds familiar, you are not alone.

Don't you want to succeed with your content marketing efforts?
We’ve been helping businesses create content for more than 15 years, and I’ve noticed:
So we created The Roadmap to the 7Cs as a manageable content creation and implementation program to help businesses finally achieve success with their content.
A journey along the Roadmap will provide:
Over what you publish
Over your publishing schedule
Over the message
Over why you’re publishing what you’re publishing
Over what you want it to do for you
Over the message and the goals
Your content is working
You’re connecting with your audience
What you’re publishing
You’re no longer stressed about not knowing what to create
You’re not longer anxious about your content’s performance
You’re no longer worried about “throwing darts in the dark” with your content
With your audience
Your audience is converting into prospects
And content becomes a priority again.
Your journey along the Roadmap will provide you with the following content marketing tools:
Content plan: the heart of your content, it discusses what you will create, who it’s for and the results you want it to achieve.
Content calendar: lays out the next 3 months of content – type, topic, date and distribution.
Content checklist: helps you stay organized with your content from beginning to end.
Content parking lot: content ideas that did not make it into the calendar but are still viable.
Content repurposing guide: helps ensure your content is working as hard as it can for you.
We send you a questionnaire for you to fill out to help us understand your business, objectives, customers, competition and content creation up to this point.
Then, we have a 60-90 minute meeting to make sure I understand and ask any clarifying questions.
10 working days later, you have the following:
After that, you can either implement the plan yourself and create the content, hire someone else to do it for you, or continue to work with us.
